To a forgotten nation

I am feeling sentimental. The reason, I have just been in the club and there have been subjected to a loud invective of racialism and political recent history.
I listened to someone who has never been anywhere near Rhodesia telling his audience about the Afrikaners and their Sunday sojourns into the bundu to go kaffir hunting. In Rhodesia!

We used to laugh at some of the foreign newspaper reports, especially one’s of the bodies on the Cathedral greens in Salisbury, all blacks and all very dead. When closely inspected they were all found to be very black but ALL very drunk.

In my mess the senior sergeant was a black. He was murdered by Robert Mugabe and the British did nothing. His people were the only tribe ever to defeat the Zulu in battle. They were the murdered Ndebele, a geniocide ignored. No war crimes here.
