My deepest thanks
Marius, thank you, or in your language, Dankie, Meneer.
I have travelled all over the world, and never felt more welcome than in South Africa. As a wheelchair user, it felt so good, to be welcomed and looked out for as opposed to the usual lack of access and arrogent attitute. I am a university history adjuct, in New Jersey, working on a doctoral dissertation, which looks at the use of propaganda in non traditonal warfare, including Zimbabwe, and South Africa.
Everyone from a Shaggan sangoma, to Prince Buthelizi's top aide, helped me. You are lucky to live in such a land.
There was a link, between Homeland leaders, and conservative Ndbele, and Shona leaders in what was then Rhodesia. I am trying to raise funds to talk to Verwoerd's son in law, who is heading up this Orania Afrikaner movement in the north. I know the Voortrekker youth movement, helped a lot, with moulding public opinion.
As for our time the idea of a UN force was discussed in 1970.
