Your interview with burden on this subject was great. You should considering writing a book about this as I think it’s more than worthy of that level of treatment. Unless anyone is familiar with a similar book already?
Everything I have heard of Rhodesia points to it being one of the worst betrayals of success and freedom, disguised as “opposing tyranny and racism“, because some accursed bureaucrats and traitors in governments around the world didn’t want to look bad or admit that Rhodesia was successful.
Always thought the massive foreign policy disaster that was 1979 would make a great book: Rhodesia, Iran, Afghanistan, Nicaragua, China, Cambodia, Korea…everything went to sh!t under Carter in one year.
I assert that the CIA subsequently installed the bLACKING Bolsheviks in Zud Afrika and has been continuously responsible for the White death toll since.
I don't think the true goal is egalitarianism - that's just the marketing cover. The true goal is the deliberate destruction of western civilization by a hidden power which wishes to rule the whole world and perceives(d) the old order as its enemy.
It’s always seemed very telling that Allen Dulles was a follower of the occultist Alice Bailey. They used the message of egalitarianism to process a new system of destruction in order to manifest a new hierarchy. Weird people
I am Jewish myself, come from the most Jewish, shitlib place imaginable, and the only guy I knew who was Jewish who worked at the CIA was half Jewish with an extremely Irish last name. Obviously anecdotal but I am pretty well networked... For whatever this is worth.
Realistically, what could have Rhodesia done? They seem to have done everything right in paper yet they still drew diplomatic hostility from the world.
Not invading Mozambique probably would have been the right move, as invading it is what got the world’s ire refocused on them in the late ‘70s.
Had they dodged that bullet, there’s a better chance they could have held out until Reagan, and unlike Nixon or Thatcher he was reasonably friendly to their interests. The leftists in power of course, namely Wilson and Carter, were awful to Rhodesia
But really the war was close to unwinnable once Portugal fell and the terrorists had Mozambique to operate from
Awesome article! Very revealing. Would love to see something about the CIA evolvement on the fall of Portugal (and therefore, the fall of Angola and Moçambique) in 1974.
If what you call the west even existed, then it’s nature is , as you detailed in this article, self destructive and self sabotaging. Every “western” empire has fallen prey to other “western empires”
There is no sense in the west that its nations or empires are bounded by kin. They are in fact ruthless to each other and always end up butchering one another.
Infighting has certainly always been part of it, but generally that has been over the share of resources controlled by each empire, not an attempt to blow everything up
Fighting over this or that duchy in the Middle Ages, for example, or over control of colonies in the 17th and 18th centuries, was about benefit. But no one benefited from what’s described here, nor was benefit even the calculus of it. It was about a caustic, destructive ideology that dismantled all of what used to exist, which is quite different
There has been no shortages of “blow everything up” in western history. From the destruction of the Spanish empire, to the proposed partition of Germany, right down to generalplan ost. I agree that prior to the modern age this may not have been the norm, but past the Protestant reformation, any veneer of common unity was worn off.
I highly doubt no one benefited from the specific case your present. The USA hardly does anything that does not benefit it or its elites. The collapse of the colonial empires was fostered by the USA because it did not want competitors. The USA would go on to colonize the third world on its own terms, using a much more refined and effective version of colonialism, the USA viewed these colonial empires as historical dinosaurs that were unproductive and unprofitable.
this and many other small anecdotes confirm that the alt right, rabid anti communists and anti woke cultural warriors are in fact, the rejects of the mainstream USA institutions like the cia or Hollywood. Their mistrust and hated of these is not ideological or rational, but born out of spite.

Thank you!
I believe “Background to Betrayal,” soon to be republished by the JBS, covers some of this
I will look into writing a book eventually

Absolutely
It stood in opposition to “our” egalitarian mindset, and so it was destroyed
Great article. Ian Smith was popular with blacks and whites. Rhodesia was the breadbasket of Africa. Another of jimmy carters failures.
Thank you, absolutely. I have an article on Carter’s involvement, if you’re interested: https://www.theamericantribune.news/p/why-did-jimmy-carter-side-with-communists

This is certainly true in Rhodesia, the Congo, and others. I suspect it’s true in South Africa as well, though it does appear they handed mandela over
This is true. America created the Cold War theatre
Jonas Savimbi was also done in
I need to look more into him
Wait till you figure out why we made sure the Republic of China lost…
I haven’t read much on that, do you have anything good on it I should read?
George Marshall stopped The RoC from killing off the commies because we needed to set china back while also playing them against the soviets
Could you imagine Taiwan skillz in charge of a country that didn't kill off all the intelligent people and break their familial spirit?
I’d remind people that every US president signed off on this tacitly, or by being a puppet.

How jewish is the CIA? I assume very, due to its unwavering commitment to anti-White communism.
It was mainly Northern WASP libtards in the post-WW2 period, as they were the ones who also staffed the OSS
So not very
Interesting. Jews are behind every other left-wing, anti-Western initiative and organizetion. Why not this one?

Eli O'Riordan? Great guy.

I’m trying to look into that, but it has been hard to find much good info
I do have one up on their involvement in the Congo, if that interests you

Look what they did to the middle east syria iran irag Afghanistan the kurds ……….. i knew some rhodesian recce operators they were great and sold out
Egalitarianism as motivation in and of itself lacks explanatory power. Why?
See my comment. New World Order. CIA was developed by new age and a few Catholic new world order apologists
It was truly awful
Yeah they are awful
