THE BATTLE FOR SOUTHERN AFRICA - Gene H Hogberg - January 1977

Gene H Hogberg

A new front in the East-West struggle has opened up wide. At stake is a vitally strategic region containing the free world's richest treasure trove of mineral wealth. Its loss to the industrialized West would be incalculable. Guerrilla warfare escalates in Rhodesia as efforts to achieve a settlement in Geneva sputter: militants in South West Africa (Namibia) claim they will have no part of a peaceful transfer of power; riots break out in the black urban townships of Africa's largest industrialized country, the Republic of South Africa. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
