Stanleyville, 1964

A visceral, but important short documentary to watch for anyone having ‘not seen the elephant’, as my friend Keypounder puts it. This is not a pleasant watch and it is not posted for entertainment.

Wanna boogaloo? This is what boogaloo looks like. And the sound might have been dubbed here and there, but that was only so the video could actually be released. In case you didn’t know, the same talking points the Communists used then to rally a murderous frenzy they’re using today here in the US.

And yes, the Simbas practiced ritualistic cannibalism. Still do, according to the Ugandans I know.

    Isn’t that Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner running around strapped with the .30?

    I have no romantic illusions of what SHTF/TEOTWAKI/Boogaloo would be like. I enjoy reading a good “cozy catastrophe” as much as the next guy, but I understand it is fiction. I have never been to war, but I have immediate family that has. It is not something that I want to see first hand. If it happens, I’ll be here, but I am not calling for it.

    It’s sad how much the innocent suffer in these types of wars. It reminds me of what the civilians endured when I was in Iraq. With all the divisions in our own country we could have our own Congo‘s here as well. And I’m sure there would be no shortage of advisors wanting to come here to show how to conduct a proper revolution. Anyone who hasn’t read Mr. Bracken’s work on the CW2 cube probably should, this documentary is a good example of it in action.

    From the documentary “Africa Addio”, watch the whole doc, I recommend it highly. Multiculturalism? Oil and water will never mix regardless of what the globalist Intelligentsia try to shove down your throats. And just think; these savages are now living amongst us…

    Just finished re-reading Mike Hoares Congo Mercenary. Quite timely.

    Novelist the late W.E.B. Griffin, wrote the 1964 Congo Crisis into his “Brotherhood of War” series of historical fiction, and did it superbly, too, weaving accurate history around fictional characters as well as real-life personages such as “Mad Mike” Hoare. Can’t recall what volume it appears in, but that’s the series. Readers interested in that time period are urged to look into it. Griffin was unparalleled as a master of teaching history while also writing an entertaining yarn. The Simbas were everything portrayed in the documentary film and more. They practiced cannibalism and also believed in magic rites to make themselves “bullet-proof.” Those perceived as their enemies were treated with an unspeakable brutality.
