→Leftist Overthrow: I'm afraid it's undeniable that the government was racist - they refused to implement majority rule, hence the declaration of independence
== Leftist Overthrow ==
== Leftist Overthrow ==
Leftist groups began the Rhodesian Bush War in the mid 1970s in an attempt to overthrow the conservative government in place in Salisbury. The militant ZANU group (Zimbabwe African National Union) led by [[Robert Mugabe]] were given assistance by communists and adopted Maoist teachings. The ZANU and other rebel militant terrorist groups received training, arms and political support from [[China]], the [[Soviet Union]], [[East Germany]], [[North Korea]], [[Mozambique]], [[Tanzania]], and [[Cuba]]. Liberals often deny the communist influence of the "liberation" groups that fought against the Rhodesian government. Liberals also try to make the Rhodesian government look racist; it was not.
