[Some days ago, I wrote to Dr Peter Hammond of the Frontline Fellowship. I am sure, in the dim recesses of my mind, that I remember these brave people from the days of Rhodesia. The Frontline Fellowship does what Priests really should be doing, if they want to call themselves priests, and that is to spreak out about Terrorism, Communism, destruction, etc.

Dr Hammond has written several books, and I will get details of them.

He tells me that he wants to write a book about the national suicide going on in Zimbabwe. I think it is an awesome idea. We are watching history in the making in a big way.

A friend in the USA… in fact, probably the first American I ever had as a friend, Dave, sent me a Christian publication from the USA which contained an article “Is Africa dying before our very eyes?”. It lists the incredible destruction and death going on across Africa… with thousands dying every day. The authors point out that the regular destruction in Africa makes things like the December 2004 Tsunami look trivial.

I couldn’t help smiling to myself though, because the Americans who wrote the article pointed out that these same countries were THRIVING when they were part of the British, and other Empires! I smiled a big smile, because the honest-to-God truth, is that Colonialism was the best thing that ever happened to Africa. The article asked if “God has cursed Africa”.

People can try to solve the problems of Africa, but as I have said many times, the Marxist Liberation of Africa, was a big mistake, and it could take Africa 100 or more years before it finds its feet again.

I smile – because the Whites made progress look easy. But it wasn’t easy, and many think they can replicate what our forefathers did, and they will see how difficult it is.

I watch TV news here in S.Africa and often find our ANC-dominated Govt to be quite good at comic relief. I watch as President Mbeki runs around, trying to motivate people. Its too funny. These people are basing all their thoughts and ideas on principles and methods which haven’t got a hope in hell of succeeding. The same with Mugabe. Destruction, and economic failure is endemic to their system. Their system CANNOT succeed. It will fail.

I receive Rhodesian publications which I subscribe to, and I smiled to myself. Rhodesia may have been killed off, because the world was stupid enough to let it be killed, but Rhodesia stands tall a proud. Rhodesia represents the greatest Zenith which “Zimbabwe” could ever aspire to. And Zimbabwe is being wiped out. As Dr Hammond aptly called it: “National Suicide”. All Mugabe can do is: Smash, terrorise, oppress… that’s the sum total of it, because his stupid system, and his stupid philosophies CANNOT lead to progress.

The ANC is the same. This evening I watched FOKUS – an excellent Afrikaans TV news program – and they showed so many things which made me shake my head. As unbelievable as it may seem, this country, S.Africa, is going to end up a complete flipping RUIN, just like Angola, or Mozambique or Zimbabwe.

And when it does, people will remember APARTHEID and AFRIKANERS and the National Party. Imagine, 50 years from now, people might be saying: Do you know, APARTHEID South Africa was awesome – it was vibrant, it was successful, it was the most progress that country ever knew. Look at the unbelievable miracles of progress which took place under Afrikaner-dominated rule in the 1950’s and 1960’s – and look at how the ANC came and levelled that country to the ground.

You think it won’t be like that? Stick around… and be SHOCKED!

I must say, with each passing day, I am finding myself become prouder, and prouder and PROUDER, of my forefathers and the things they did here in Africa – because, with muskets and oxwagons, they achieved, what the United Nations, and the EU and $25 billion in foreign aid can’t achieve in 2005. Our forefathers ROCKED!!!

If we had any brains, sense or courage, we would be like them, and rebel and chart our own course in Africa, in a country of our own one day – because we’re the only people, who ever lived in Africa, who ever made it prosper. What our forefathers achieved, has never been duplicated by anyone since. Jan]
