Concerned Foreign Based Zimbabweans

We had a meeting for Concerned Foreign Based Zimbabweans last night.

Its funny how people are. You see this over, and over and over again. You meet people, they tell you how keen they are on multiracial alliances, and how keen they are to DO SOMETHING – but when push comes to shove you see them disappear. Over the years I’ve seen that you judge people by what they do rather than by what they say.

I think we did well. We won our first supporters. Several white women volunteered to arrange an even larger meeting at Sandton… Some of them were businesswomen and I have a feeling good stuff will come of this.

One lady said she employed a lot of black Zimbabweans and she wanted Jay to address them. So that was already his next speaking event.

I’m appearing on radio Overval in the Free State on Monday evening at about 8 or 9pm – for an hour.

I think I did pretty well. Jay Jay was very pleased with my speech. He also gave a speech which I wanted Rhodesians especially to hear. I am going to see if I can arrange for Jay Jay to speak to Rhodesians some time. I think they will be amazed at what he candidly has to say.

A further note, about funding and controlling the organisation. Right from the start, Jay said he wants whites to be the majority in control of all funds. He only asked for one black representative on the committee. This is important. This is NOT a self-enrichment scheme. White people will be handling all monies and directing things from a logistics point of view. The plan suggested by Jay and the other blacks was: whites do the background stuff, but the blacks hit the streets and engage other blacks. The blacks do ALL the fronting and the blacks are active on the street. And these guys are much tougher than the MDC. Their kind of talk is the kind of talk the MDC balked at. Many of them told me of how they had attempted to get sponsors for an armed struggle. But more of that in this week’s article. It is a fascinating story.

My view, from a spiritual point of view is this: I believe it is a crime in God’s eyes if someone wants to do something good and you stand in his way. If someone wants to do something good, it is your duty to support him – even if he is to fail. Success or failure is not the issue. The issue is: Right versus Wrong. When a person wants to do GOOD, you must not be the reason why he failed. God should not be able to lay the blame at your door. So that is the reason why I support these people. They want to take on a very evil enemy, and I CANNOT, from a spiritual point of view, deny them their right to action. If a man wants to get up off his butt and do something, I’ll support him – be he white or be he black. I’m keen on people getting mad and getting active in whatever way suits them, and I’m throwing my support behind anyone who does anything. I feel as comfortable talking to someone in the AWB as I do sitting and chatting to a bunch of blacks. I keep my eye on the ball at all times. My enemy is communism. I will support anyone who is out to damage that enemy. To me, we all face a common enemy and I don’t care who does what – as long as we go after that enemy. Some may do it openly, and others may do it diplomatically behind the scenes. Let each approach the problem from his angle. But the emphasis is on doing rather than sitting. I checked these blacks out, and I’m happy with what I see. My view is simple. I help them to get up and DO. I don’t want to be with them everywhere they go. No. I just want to have my input and assist in certain things. My own struggle is always on the go – getting the news out – working on my news/propaganda angle. That never stops. My war is a war for people’s minds. That is my speciality. But these blacks can go out and do things – and everything I see that they have done is good. They don’t come to me asking me what to do. They are busy all the time. From time to time we touch bases. It is clear that they never sit down. They are active every day. They brought all manner of things which show what they have done, and I’ll still write more about that in the coming weeks. People will see, these blacks are educated – they are not a bunch of savages out of the bush. They’ve been thinking, planning and acting in a realistic manner. I cannot divulge their plans and thinking, but it is extremely sound. Not one of you will be able to find fault with it. One protest march of theirs got reported in a Sandton newspaper – and we’re going to work on them hitting the radio circuit and doing press releases to counter ANC bull.

But more on that later.

The meeting was very productive. About 60% of the audience was black Zimbabweans, the other 40% were mostly ex-Rhodesian women. They liked my speech a lot. Most were fascinated by it.

EVERYONE was fascinated by my book. I have run out of copies of my book and am sorting out logistical/printing problems. But everyone was fascinated by it. It went from person to person.

I took the opportunity of chatting to several of the blacks and guaging their reaction to me and my message. The black Zimbabweans sat in silence, smiling at some of my remarks, but you could see they were RIVETTED by my book and my message of race hatred as a tool for staying in power forever. Many of them sat there, staring straight into my eyes, mesmerised by what I had to say.

At the meeting it was obvious, ALL AROUND, that the ANC is an enemy of the people of Zimbabwe. Not one black Zimbabwean liked what the ANC had to say. In fact, they were OUTRAGED by Minister of Foreign Affair’s Zuma’s statements about Zim. They were highly irritated and itching for a chance to issue their own press statements. This is a high priority which we need to get going. Jay needs to be in their faces all the time – and these blacks are not wimpy, wishy, washy types. When it comes to Zimbabwe and their dying families they start getting visibly irritated very quickly because they don’t have time for Mbeki’s sh*t.

I told them all of my concept that we should fight the battle for Zim in the South African political arena and it seemed to go down well.

All in all, when it was finished there were lots of compliments all round and the blacks came and shook my hand.

You might think that an alliance between Rhodesians and Zimbabweans could never occur, but I’ll tell you, its happening, and its great.

I don’t want to give away the contents of Jay’s speech, but I must at some point get it recorded so folks can hear it. NO BLACK MAN IN SOUTH AFRICA WOULD GIVE A SPEECH LIKE THE ONE WHICH CAME FROM JAY’S MOUTH. Not even Buthelezi himself. Not Mangope – NONE OF THEM. Jay said things which would lay the liberals out cold. The joke is, all the Zimbabweans felt the same. They are world’s apart from Black South Africans.

I told people that there is no war, no revolution in history, which was ever won by people having a majority at the outset. The American War of Independance was started by a MINORITY! There is one thing Jay and I share, and I told the audience this. I have never cared from the first whether my book would make it or not. I ploughed my savings into it not caring for where it goes. I have a message and a mission and I don’t care who comes along or who doesn’t. I’m going to do what I want, and if I have to go all the way alone I don’t care. And when I met Jay and Jairos and I saw what they had done WITH NO MONEY, using up their own personal savings, I recognised that similar spirit. They don’t care if they live or die, or if someone helps them or not. They are determined to stand their ground. I respect that spirit in any man or woman. And I will support and work with ANYONE, regardless of race, or nation, as long as we can get out and kick our enemy squarely in the nuts.

There is an enemy out there, and I’m out to hurt them as much as I possibly can, and the only people I want on my side are people who feel the same. But we’re gonna do it in an intelligent manner so that this enemy cannot just nip us in the bud and sideline us. That’s why I printed my book in the USA originally so NOBODY could stop it. My book is out and done, and I’m sneaking it into bookstores in South Africa now. Its already been on two bookshows in the USA, and due on another next month. It is listed on Amazon.com and so on. When the time is right, I’ll hit the mass media in South Africa. Jay and I have a deal about how we’re gonna get into the media and support each other.

From last night’s event it has become obvious that the next move is to arrange meetings and address anyone who is willing to listen. We’re going to win grass roots support and move forward from there.

This Zimbabwe issue is the single most contentious and yet uniting issue in South African politics. This is a golden opportunity not to be missed. Nothing will hurt the ANC more than this. Put the spotlight on the bastards, turn up the heat, and have them jumping around like a cat on a hot tin roof for daring to support Mugabe, and make them burn for it.
