    As a Zimbabwean/Rhodesian, I say good for us. Proud of my country and countrymen! We disobeyed and rebelled against the globalist cabal govts/media and raised our nation to a successful, prosperous and well-lead nation, a good, noble, brave and kind people with a good, courageous leader; free from the cabal's evil rule. ( However we were unfortunately very unfair to the good African people, leading to our karmic downfall). Now I love the good British people and nation with all my heart. We Rhodesians/Zimbabweans were and are proudly British the same as we are proudly African. But it was the UK government and media who were the enemy of both our people. Puppets of the nefarious cabal agendas. Today I am pleased to say. the global cabal are being dismantled completely and we the good people are rising up. Zimbabwe and the rest of the planet will be rebuilt on a new system of Loving Kindness, Compassion, Unity, Tolerance, Justice, Truth, Freedom, Friendship for all people, animals and other living beings. All of us will be unconditionally Loved, Joyful, Prosperous, Safe, Protected and Free in the New Earth. Amen. It is done. It is as it is. 💜❤️💚🙏🙏🐾🐾🕊🕊🇿🇼🇿🇼🇬🇧🇬🇧

    @ayodejiolowokere1076, excellent question my fellow black African from naija. I am from Zambia just next door to Zimbabwe, but my mother is from Zimbabwe. My maternal grandmother told us that she worked as a nanny looking after the children of the white people she so despised. What her white employers didn't know was that she was part of a large group of Zimbabwean women cooking food for the rebel guerillas, then someone would collect this cooked food from different homes and take it to the guerillas in the bush. In the morning my maternal grandmother would turn up to work to look after these children, but her heart hated them for coming all the way from Europe in the name of being superior to seize their land and make it theirs. Just imagine there were 20 blacks for every 1 white person. These fools buried their heads in the sand and thought they could win. In fact the British government knew and understood what the outcome would be because China and Russia were helping the rebels with training and arms. There is no way these foolish rhodesians would ever win. Even the name rhodesia is an insult to the blacks. It is a names that was formed from the truly evil racist arch imperialist Cecil John Rhodes. He carved up southern Africa and is even buried in Zimbabwe. No sane black could ever have agreed to be called a rhodesia because the man hated blacks.

    And thus the Rhodesians doomed themselves. Of all the nations, only South Africa was their ally. The apartheid nation assisting the racist nation. And later even South Africa withdrew it's support.

    +Portugal's Estado Novo regime. I believe the Rhodesians and South Africans had formed an alliance with the Portuguese against black guerillas in the early 70s.
