LOSERS
#RobertMugabe, having led the #ZANU fight against #Rhodesia, won election on #ThisDayInHistory in 1980 to lead the successor state of #Zimbabwe. He held power in the country continuously until a 2017 coup, overseeing a corrupt #kleptocracy that used dishonest #socialist rhetoric.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I read #AlexandraFuller's memoir of growing up in #Rhodesia (now #Zimbabwe) #DontLetsGoToTheDogsTonight in 2001 + this #film is an excellent adaptation directed by + starring #EmbethDavidtz - But it's young talent #LexiVenter that gives the film it's heart

#Israel is not a natural state; it is a colonial enterprise originally created to destabilise the #MiddleEast. Surrounding nations, newly formed by the war-weary West, were falling under increasing influence of the #SovietUnion, which was readily supplying large quantities of weapons and logistics in the hope of gaining access to vast natural resources.

The formation of Israel created both a bulwark and a magnet for conflict. It is the #Rhodesia of the Middle East.

The Guardian
In 1965 on #ThisDayInHistory, the #WhiteSupremacist colonial government of #SouthernRhodesia issued #Rhodesia's Unilateral Declaration of Independence. This was to avoid any chance of independence favouring the black majority. The #apartheid government finally collapsed in 1979.
The Palestinians had no role in the #Holocaust, yet 80 years on they continue to pay the price for the crimes of power-hungry #Europeans. Israel’s creation was not a commitment to peace but a strategic bulwark against #Soviet influence. Today, having long outlived its original purpose, Israel increasingly resembles #Rhodesia—struggling to justify its existence and embracing fascist ideology as a means of survival.

#Mugabe is an example of someone who many people uncritically accept the dominant narrative about, even though it's wrong. He wasn't the pure evil that the #West makes him out to be.

#Rhodesia was a #white #ethnonationalist #SettlerColony in #Zimbabwe. It was founded by #Britain, and several high-ranking #Nazis relocated there after #WWII.

#ZANU was Mugabe's #revolutionary movement against Rhodesia. They fought a war called the #BushWar, in which Rhodesia committed horrific #WarCrimes.
