Oh how I love Mark Twain. Where has this timeless wit gone in our era?

Thank you Ms. Chung for this seldom exposed history. For those who haven't read it, "AmaBhulu" by Harry Booyens offers a courageous view of South African history and today's cowardly Western denial of this post-apartheid collectivist horror story. See nor hear the evil is not a paradigm of truth, nor does it stop the savage rape and destruction of the African continent. South Africa was, and perhaps still is to African nations as the United States is to the world of nations. Looking at our 21st century geopolitical landscape, one wonders if South Africa and China are the pilot projects and planning models for North America and the entire world's future - just with transhuman control systems? It is time for Main Street civilization to wake up, walk upright, and defend itself before the gates of "full spectrum dominance" close and are locked.

One factor missing from most analysis of history is from an Islamic understanding. Meaning our current 'western' civilization does not factor in the advent of Islam and it's dissemination throughout the world in the form of language, math. China is not a white, Anglo-Saxon country, and we in the West, must acquire new organs of comprehension, a la Jesus' example. So in your question about China and S. Africa being "tests", is not accurate because what S. Africa has become. China is USING the failure and had come up with socialism w/ a chinese twist! Necessity is the mother of invention and China is the future.

Ethnicity and race are irrelevant to Satanic malevolence. If not related, how do you account for the same Anglo-American families financing the political turmoil, subjugation of Main Street people, and resource rape of China, Russia, and South Africa? The same psychopathic families incidentally, enslaving Europe, the rest of Africa, the rest of Asia, South and Central America, and of course, North America. China is a global syndicate protectorate, is not the future, but is intended to play a major role in the Satanically influenced destruction of all life on Earth, i.e., all creation. The Chinese people are enslaved as is most of the world at this point.

Cynthia, I believe that Twain destroyed the Shakespear fraud. The Stratford man could not have written any of the masterful work. His apologists have to twist into pretzels in order to give him the education he never had. Jack. Ps. he is one of my favorite writers al all time!

Speculation was rife on the Kimberley diamond fields in the 1870s, and, later, during his premiership in Cape Town, that Rhodes had a ‘predilection for young men’, several of whom he hired and fired as secretaries, except for one, Neville Pickering. Whether or not CJR was gay, he had a well known, intense dislike of women.

Which makes the arrival in Cape Town of a certain Countess Radiziwell (of the Jackie Kennedy clan apparently) who seems to have barged her way into CJR’s life despite his protestations. What was particularly interesting, here, was that she almost certainly blackmailed Rhodes, using a copy of the telegram CJR had sent to Jamieson, then poised on the Transvaal border, authorising the latter to mount a raid to topple the Kruger government, thereby getting his hands on what turned out to be the Witwaterand gold fields - a colour revolution if ever there was one.

Initially, Rhodes vigorously denied that he had authored the telegram, or engineered a coup, but he does seem to have paid her substantial sums of money, before packing her off to London by boat - the very same ship from which Barney Barnato, a sheister of note to match Rhodes’ lack of business ethics, jumped overboard, never to be found again.

Barnato had been CJR’s bitter rival in a struggle to control diamond mining in Kimberley, and seemed bent on renewing that rivalry on the Witwatersrand to control the gold mining industry. A suicide indeed.

I wrote my Masters thesis on the Kimberley diamond fields under the supervision of the late, great British Marxist, Tom Bottomore, who advised against including any material that couldn’t be backed by hard evidence and I agreed. However, in light of contemporary historiography, I’m rather sorry I did. Still, I hope you find this interesting. Very best regards, David Ginsburg

Wow. Crazy to see how Rhodes was thought of by others while he was alive. Even then they realized the British colonialism was evil.
