If you wish to see every conflict through Rhodesian tinted glasses, you won't see clearly.

Most wars are unique, but the psychology of war, and the manner in which each side demonizes the other side until years after the conflict is settle has a lot of commonality. That's all I was trying to point out. I bought the Rhodesian government's propaganda hook, line and sinker back then. I'm not buying this time around. The parallels between a democratic, pro-western law and order government vs. despotism coupled with terrorism was also common between Rhodesia & Iraq.

Your (probably) lilly white A$$ was oppressing Black people in Rhodesia,

I was at a christian college for black Rhodesians.
