#1 Are we here in the US far behind?

We certainly don't appear to be. "The Great Betrayal" redux.

Action taken some 40 years late, but nonetheless action. Good on Perfidious Albion.

#2 Hear, hear, Besoeker, although the US failed to also come through in the early 70s, forcing the South Africans to pull out, after which the war truly revved up.
As an aside, there was a lively debate recently as to whether the UK tax-payer should fund all this. It became quite heated. It appears that 'heritage' as a concern comes second to personal wishes and short attention spans.
(So...), in the end, the question is, at that age, whether to die in poverty in a land where everyone is miserable and it always rains and is cold, or to die in poverty with another bunch of miserable people in the sunshine. What a choice!

#3 If it were up to me I'd conduct a monthly NEO evacution from the port of Maputo and bring everyone to the States, Auzzieland, New Zealand or wherever they wished to go!

#4 Booking my single, one-way ticket to Maputo right now, just waiting for my sidearms to arrive, lol!

This is the end of an era, which the Brits arent reporting, choppers on the roof-tops time.
Expect the same in South Africa in the next few years.

#5 Yes RF, I fear you are dead on. The BBC and the British media are not reporting the inconvenient little bushveld genocide because they and a few here are responsible for it! Success has many fathers, failure only one... as they say. Jacob is indeed an evil bastard, but something tells me South Africa may not go down as quietly however. Time will tell.
