Makes you ashamed to be British on the way we let down Rhodesia. Now we've all seen what happened, have to say this was a lost opportunity for millions of people.
ric 63 you guys are worse humans on earth. Everywhere you went you left devastation behind. We all see how you fought in both world wars to defend yourselves from being ruled but you thought it was ok to rule over other. You even recruited fighters from your so-called colonies to help you fend off the invaders by force. How arrogant. You are the real savages.
Buba Barrow Calm down now, those aren’t really words you’d want to be using, don’t assume that the British are “the worst humans in the planet”, and that they’re all “savages.”
@@bubabarrow4960 You're a uneducated bigoted fool. Learn about the history of humanity and you will see endless examples of savagery from all races, all across the world. Were the Brits ruthless...yes, did they have a over-inflated sense of superiority...yes, did the citizens of a tiny island manage to out smart, dominate and control over a quarter of the world...yes, why is that? I don't agree with all the Brits did and some actions were shameful. However, i am looking at it from a 21st century mindset. "Everywhere you went you left devastation behind" look around the world, the systems the Brits invented are being used in all successful countries. From the military/police structure, banking, courts, industrial/manufacturing etc, if anything the systems have been improved upon in places. India still use the train lines built by the Brits during the Victorian era. Why am i wasting my time commenting on RUclips...i don't know!
Buba Barrow Boohoo Must have been so hard for you to have running water and modern medicine and electricity and ... etc. The fact is about 25% of people on earth are alive today because of the British Empire. We had to civilise YOU! We we found you you hadn’t even invented written language yet. We are the furthest thing from savages and I won’t apologise for making the world a better place. White men in general should never apologise for giving the world almost everything.
Then why did he declare independence from Britain when the British imperialists were desperate to stop him doing that? If he was British imperialism then he would of wanted continued British rule. Learn your history.
@@ForestWalker22 I remember very well. The late 1960ies. Rhodesia was a jewel. Exporting food. The media hated him and he had to go. Their darling was Robert Mugabe. Ian Smith had to go. Today the country is starving. Not to speak about all the people killed and droven away. Also a story about racism.
@Katherine Sparkes Thank you. Indeed, I travelled the Uk for years. Manchester was ok, but in Birmingham I could not understand a word. Of course, the US slang, South Africa, English in India. My favorite is Aussie English. Of course, local dialects are existing in all countries. Germany, France, Spain. Beside the funny higlights of Indian English I like Russians speaking French.
Literally the Rhodesian and Afrikaner accents is that hard to imitate even after watching hours of footage of Ian Smith and Hendrix Verwoerd speaking English.
I just can't understand why "the world" was so interested in what happens in Rhodesia! Rhodesia must do this, Rhodesia must give this or that portfolio to this or that group!!! What the hell has what happens thousands of miles got to do with Britain or the US or indeed anyone else!?? When was the last time Britain gave a shit who runs Burkina Faso , for example, or when they had their last election or which portfolio was held by whom!!! But they are so INSISTENT that Rhodesia must do this or that!!!!
IT looks like they cut parts of it. 5:47 you can see a cut and after that, looking at the way the interviewer reacts, it looks like Smith did answer the question but the sound had cut out.

he seems to have been a friendly man and much more civilized and mercyful than the brutal dictator mugabe.
Great leader, Prime Minister Ian Smith
loved his country, a hero who took on british imperialism as well as communism, deserves maximum respect.
How is it British imperialism when the government at the time was supporting the communists?
@@dibdap2373 he was betrayed by the British he said lord Carrington was the most evil man hes ever met

A great man. An hero.
The Greatest Prime Minister ever!!!! 🇳🇫
God Bless you PM Smith , RIP, we still miss you in Windhoek Namibia
A flawed but honourable man. God bless his soul.
How was he flawed?
@@paudiepower1407 a bit too stubborn at times, but even then I could still forgive him due to the situation and attitudes in Africa at the time.
Never heard such dialect of English. Quite interesting
Yeah...quite heavy.
It's very similar to English in South Africa
Beautiful accent, I love it

5:52 weird soliloquy.
These AP uploads are rough cuts. It's normal to bring one camera and film the questions seperately from the answers.
Same left wing media propaganda chopping up an interview to make the opposition look a certain way
Conveniently cut and edited before an answer was given
Yesss, scholar cradle!
The silence in the last questions, did it mean Smith was unwilling to answer of comment on those ones?
IT looks like they cut parts of it. 5:47 you can see a cut and after that, looking at the way the interviewer reacts, it looks like Smith did answer the question but the sound had cut out.

Okay. Understood.
