Lads read up on Cecil Rhodes / George Goldie and the Chartered Companies they ran. We can still reclaim Africa if people set up organisations in the continent and move over the more skilled Europeans to fill the job vacancies there.
Once enough Europeans live in a region their governments will be forced to defend them from any native aggression

>tfw born too late to live the good life as a mercenary in Africa

Feels bad man

...

Any news on Zim?

>wanting more europeans in Africa
No. Stop it grandpa your colonization days are over. You don't get a fucking do-over.

King ZANU went to Graduation ceremony and the military are still begging him to step down

youtube.com/watch?v=OfBRAlAyUZk

They should hang him

...

what is rhodesia

Friendly reminder that the Nazis were socialists and that is why socialism is bad.

How do we reclaim Africa lads?

For this Captcha I got a street sign of Harare ;_;

...

Meme merchant is despicable tbqh

Why do African African flags always look trash?

Socialism creates a permanent underclass which drains taxpayer money in perpetuity and necessitates higher taxation, greater state control and degenerate irresponsible behaviour, plus being used as a marxist tool to attack the successful as "privileged" and constantly demand thirdworld immigrants be imported. Also it doesn't work

It's what Zimbabwe used to be called when it was ran by whites, until 1979.

Went from the breadbasket of africa to a meme country overnight when the whites fled

Flags are supposed to represent their countries

flag design is geographic
the same colours are used in pretty much the same areas
you can tell where a flag is from if you know the map well enough, people from the same places are all the same desu

whats the frog in your pic called again?

Rhodes was a cunt who cheated the people he was getting clay from instead of doing it the right way.
And eurocucks don't deserve to be in Africa, only Bowers have a right to be there anymore

Something your cunt parents and grandparents destroyed because the English can't stand anyone else being happy

>people

...

Fuck off 56%er

pepe i think

Flags usually do a good job of reflecting the people they represent

nah it's john

Rhodesia died before I could visit it

it was just on the news here, they were talking about there will be a new election there as I understood quite shortly after the new temp gov takes over

They had an established territory, I would have been fine with Rhodes saying fuck you and taking it by force.
Instead the cunt cheated their king in the contract like a dirty Jew
I love it when you use false rhetoric to prevent yourself from facing your actual current state of affairs

"However, the real turning point took place in West-Germany in June 1976, where the U.S. foreign minister Henry Kissinger met the South African Prime Minister John Vorster. The United States put South Africa under pressure, and the South Africans thus pressured Ian Smith to agree to a deal orchestrated by Kissinger."

Henry Kissenger gave Africa to the commies, what a fucking cunt, not to mention Jimmy Carter had a hand in it too.

...

Is Rhodesia coming back lads?

Most likely not, that ship sailed when Jimmy Carter and his (((administration))) fucked Africa over hard.

Bump

And fucking thatcher. A literal commie backed insurgency (ussr/zipra and china/zanla) against a former colony and they pussied out.

>bbc.com/news/world-africa-42024920
>UK Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson said he hoped things would improve but also warned against a transition from "one unelected tyrant" to another

UK finally admits they helped a tyrant to come to power

Pretty much sold out to them. Fucking retarded ass politicians sold their own out to commie fucks. The 60s to 70s liberals fucked everything up

I'm sure the fact he's a Jew had nothing whatsoever to do with it :^)

They didn't even sell it to commies. They didn't even give it for free. They unironically paid for it.
Just read Requiem for Rhodesia. The guy cites how Rhodesia would sell shit to the USSR for a fraction of it's market price, and then the USSR would sell it on the international market making a good amount of cash from it

ex Rhodesian Paratrooper here - RLI 'The Saints'

Nice.
Care to share any stories? Do you still have any memorabilia back from your Rhodie days?
And how old were you when you fought? Shouldn't ex rhodies be all over 50 by now?

What was it really like?

i dont get it

Damn. Still I hold out hope that the remaining African whites can get something out of this and unfuck a corner of that continent. Too bad the Namibia project fell apart.

That's where Rhodesia was

i thought it still existed sure i saw people collecting money for it

now i feel really dumb, thanks Sup Forums

Muh afrikangz

like america then

It was brutal to put it simply but we were fighting for a real cause and something we all strongly believed in.

Enlisted at 18 after my A-Levels, born in 56 so yes I'm over 50!

Fought alongside the Rhodesian SAS & French Foreign Legion, countless contacts with the enemy, shot at numerous times leaving the doors of the dakotas and hercs, grenade hit a tree and blew tree bark into my kneecap requiring surgery but also good times with the boys, let me tell you, real life experience right there!

As soon as they handed the land over to the blacks, I left for Britain, had all my photos and keepsakes confiscated by the British Government funnily enough but kept my best dress etc.

Why does the Labour party have to embark on a crusade against "Muh racism" even if it leaves a nation in a dreadful state afterwards?

what was the thought behind what would happen afterwards, i looked up the press at the time and it was all hopeful

from the guardian at that time
>These caveats have to be entered, though they will spring unbidden to most people’s minds. But they do not overshadow the surprising unanimity reached at Lancaster House. Zimbabwe will inherit a fair constitution, an economy of great potential, and an administrative machine which is well known for its efficiency. Those are assets which the people of Zimbabwe will not want to discard. Will the leaders respond to the people? The reason to think they may is that they have done so up to now. Of course there will be a power struggle, possibly a bloody one, but it is not the only thing in the leaders’ minds. They have not suffered detention, exile, and war simply to take over a ruin.

We knew deep down what would happen, we were referred to as the 'Bread Basket' of Africa for good reason. That Guardian report is the typical bleeding heart liberal narrative we're force fed even today. Nothing's changed.

What's your view on Britain then? Cause of course we see Britain as betraying Rhodesia but you are now living here. Why not South Africa?

Video on the tragedy of Rhodesia
youtu.be/c-BWKNGRKuE

Your photos were confiscated? Wow, almost as if they were trying to memory hole that it had ever happened!

Fuck it, bump

Lol sucks to suck. thats what the british settlers get for enclosing the land and excluding the natives from most institutions

it probably would have flourished as a pluriracial society i the british didnt repress the blacks the small amount that they did

Good question. I wanted to distance myself from Africa, and my heritage is actually Dutch even though I was born in Rhodesia. Many guys went to South Africa, many also to Britain as civilians and also some went to British Special Forces.

Haha yes, also some 7.62 rounds with links if I remember correctly taken from my FN MAG.

Hey dad, before you take back Rhodesia can you take care of mutts like this and take us back into the empire? Traitors before enemies and all that.

>t. Tyrone

Right, because now that whites are out of power Africa is positively flourishing.

...

At least the Troopie is back and safe in Old England, and not lying broken behind some Zim barracks.

Wouldn't you have had O-Levels rather than A-Levels if you were in Rhodesia at that time?

youtube.com/watch?v=c-BWKNGRKuE

Documentary on the history of Rhodesia, might want to add this to the OP copypasta

O levels (GCE) and then A levels.

Rhodensia had both O and A levels

They had RJC (Rhodesian Junior Certificate), the GCE (O level) , and then the A level.

You get many flights in the Alouette III's?

>Alouette III

Yes! Quite a few before receiving my wings, then it was mostly Dakotas & Hercs.

WHY NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT THE GOLPE IN ZIMBABWE? KING NIGGER MUGABE IS DYING

lets take it back yall
fuck it

and either turn it into a nature preserve (prefered) or just a classic homestead act land grab

Id go down in history as a racist if it meant a land of my own

Ah decent, my old man was a G-Car pilot in the war.
Always spoke fondly of the troopies.

their absence only exacerbates a problem that is endemic to africa. it was going to fall apart eventually, and already was a hundred years ago

Fantastic! Small world :)

Nice, my wife uncle was in the BSAP and died before she was born in the bush war. RIP.

Do you ever visit?

Not a great idea right now.. On the other hand maybe it is the BEST idea right now. Mugabe is weak AF, Sup Forums & /k/ take back Rhodesia when?

Why the tears?
Botswana accepted rhodesians.
They are safe from the bollocks happening in zimbabwe.

Hopefully you give botswana special status.
Like you did. Before.
Not as a colony, but a protectorate.
