Rhodesian History Ep 16:The Jameson Raid Part 2

Absolutely true what you say about women and children not having any favorable rights. Look at the horrors of war in Gaza Ukraine and Yemen right now. Mainly children suffering in Palestine. They have a large childhood population, or had. As for Africa you can call the SAPS on a man beating up his wife and kids and they are likely to take the man's side. And so women go to war like the Israelis and Rhodesians instead of being with their children. I'd go as far as saying children are the most vulnerable members of society worldwide because they need protection and are not getting it due to wars.

" not these cupcakes
the human race keeps spitting out these days"

Martin , so true and a priceless quote. Made my evening. Thanks so much and take care of yourself.

Very interesting story, i never get bored of your stories and the extra details make it much more interesting, i don't think you ramble on at all and you are a very good story teller with an amazing memory. Thank you for your stories and thank you for keeping us safe during the war.

Jameson was gambler with a gambler's mentality.

Hi Martin, so happy to find you are back, once again your story telling is spellbinding. I wonder how your business is doing with the current Escom situation? Stay well and blessing to you.

Thank you for being a voice of truth in a time when truth is under attack from every possible angle. I value every word you share. I hope there are more like you to tell the truth about many parts of the great history of (mostly white Christian men and women) who gave so much for the benefit of all people on earth.

Hell, Martin - this history is fascinating and you have provided a lot more detail than what we were taught at school (PE)! Thanks for giving such a detailed account: it is very much appreciated. Many thanks and take care.

Its obvious today why Rhodesia is gone and why SA almost went the same way, globalists dont want fully functioning societys, especially not in Africa.
Today the globalist maffia are attacking west, white people that dont conform are called racist, africans that dont want to conform to the maffia are called terrorists extremists and then Nato start bombing.. sad but true.

Thank you for your stories 👍

Martin, back R&R

Thanks. As I've said before, you don't come around often but when you do you bring the stuff. Your topic and all that goes along with it, political, militarily, internationally, and so much more covers much ground and many differing opinions. Peace to you and yours.

Listening from wet and windy Dublin Ireland and really enjoy your stories

Well spoken man what a as your education level

Please, sir, go as long-winded as you'd enjoy as often as you possibly can. Thank you very much, and God bless.

Cannot wait for the continuation, thank you.

So happy to see another video. Besides your situation report video it feels like it's been a year since the first part of the Jameson Raid video

Cupcakes the human race spitting out..rich

Dr Jamison lived out his later years in London administered Rhodes schlorship funds

Nice2cuback

Great story!

Great account, sir. Looking forward to the next installment.
These stories mustn't be lost.

Hi Martin, all the hard work , sacrifice & suffering endured by the people & the Rhodesian military was unfortunately compromised by the likes of Ken Flower & his cadres , l believe the bush war outcome would have been different.
God bless.

Good to see you back Martin. Hope all well.

An hour well spent!

A beautiful country shred to pieces in front of the world and they encouraged it Just like South Africa today Two nations that were great now in the sewer

Nice story, not quite correct but good enough. My great great uncle was Charles Leonard the leader of the Reform Committee. His brother was James Leonard who was the Cape Colonies Attorney General. Both were closely associated with Cecil Rhodes. The Reform Committee wanted fair trading taxes and deals which were at the time heavily biased to benefit the Boers and Kruger. Both uncles met with Kruger numerous times. The Reform Parties Manifesto is published in Simon Winters book on Charles Leonards life "Charles Leonard, South Africa's First Revolutionary Leader" gives some idea as to the causes. Charles Leonard tried to stop the "raid" but Jameson and Rhode's brother Frank were such hot heads they ignored the warnings. Another relative Frederick Liesching rode out from Johannesburg to warn them but was too late and was taken into custody. Lionel Philips was also a relative (Cousin). Kruger even had a nickname for James Leonard calling him 'Windhond" or Greyhound. William Liesching ( Fredericks brother) negotiated with General Joubert ( Commander of the Boer Forces) to get some of the men in prison released including Frederick and was partially successful. The stores between Pitsani and Jhb were not all large but rather a whole lot of stores thrown under tarpaulins , with a few African "guards". Jameson was clueless in military tactics as was Frank and so the "raid" was doomed to fail from the beginning. The whole objective was to keep a large force of men in Botswana and from within Rhodesia to force Kruger to negotiate rather than to enter into conflict. I never heard of the women and children's letter. Johannesburg was hardly a place to keep one family, dusty, dirty and with few amenities. So people there had to be very hardy. Charles Leonard left Johannesburg to meet with Rhodes around Christmas day. He was too late. Some also say the telegraph lines were down or cut, but given this is the rainy season probably down from bad weather. 👍

Great to see you, Sir!

Welcome back!

Welcome back! Thanks, Andrew

master storyteller

Glad to see you mate. Cheers from Missouri USA

fantastic video but your bias is telling. Its not your fault. The women and children hey, but lets have a fallout about the flag we're going to raise, he,he. It was a power grab, an insurrection. There may have been fibbing at the thick end of the wedge but those Reuters reports etc give it away. The simplest version is not concern for women and children, it was typical english establishment treachery at work, just be straight. But what a wonderful series, thanks

Greetings Martin, from a rather dull Midlands UK. It is always a great pleasure, and never a chore, to learn from your teachings. "Meur ras", as we old Cornish buggers say, to those we respect as kindred spirits; as opposed to the Sowsnek, "Thank you".

So, so good to hear from you again! You touched on an important point, recreating the sentiments of the time. So often I've stumbling across a worksheet from the history department at work, and shook my head in disbelief at the shallow untruths that are perpetrated against young impressionable minds. Seeing events of colonialism through a woke infested 21st century culture does no justice, at all.

Great again.
Reliable news agency.......
Well that's a thing of the past.
Maybe even then they were controlled by the money barons as they are now.

By the way, excellent sweater!

The so-called cup-cakes of today are simply the only men who are tolerated the current system of control. Just try and disobey, just try to speak irreverently in court today. When the Media pretends that there was an "insurrection" in Washington on January 6th 2020, or lies about the protests outside the New Zealand parliament or lies about Cronula Beach in Australia and maligns the Truckers protesting in Ottawa as "Nazis" and "White Supremacists" etc. no one will risk standing up and immediately being crushed down into unemployability assuming one is allowed to matriculate out of the education system which actively cleanses itself of anyone who isn't a "Cup-Cake". Don't blame the result, blame the process.

Keep it up! love seeing another video, and you look well Martin stay safe and be blessed!

Women hold an even greater place in society now because the government has replaced men as provider/protector. As soon as they were given the chance, women completely abandoned their traditional role and as for children, I suspect the street kids mentioned are mostly male which explains why they are ignored.

I've mentioned this before but growing up in South West Scotland in the 1970's we had a fairly prominent Rhodesian community, Many had fathers still over there fighting.
Hearing you talk is like sitting with them all again.
My step father ended his military career in Rhodesia, he last went over in the early 1980's when the Whites had to be gathered in armed escorts to get them out of the country, apparently a great and much respected soldier...but he was a terrible father figure.

History has often been in less than truthful words, but you express your view very clearly and eloquently making it so much easier to be credible 👍

Love and respect Martin .

Compared to what commies say about you, I doubt you can ever say too much.

It's wonderful to see you're good. Hope all is well.. keep safe

Very nice to see you back with us and doing well sir. You have been missed 👍

So awesome to have another video! Makes a perfect morning.

I've been seeing on the news about the troubles in South Africa I've been thinking about and praying for you.

Great story as always thanks

🥇

This is a very important channel. The history of Rhodesia has been criminally misrepresented.

This is a most gracious and respectful man. Knowlegeable beyond measure.
