I don't know where you found this, I was just getting ready to let you know it wasn't on the African Tears site. Luckily, this was the first post. I was a little concerned.

This is from the web sire's HOMEPAGE:

Welcome to the SELOUS SCOUTS, once the most feared counter-insurgency force on the African continent.

During the course of the war the Selous Scout were officially credited with either directly or indirectly being responsible for 68% of all terrorist killed, while losing less than 40 scouts in the process.

With this site I tried to obtain as much information on the scouts to give the reader hopefully clear idea of who and what the scouts were and what they were fighting for in an around the former country of Rhodesia.

In putting this site together there is a lot of general information on many facets of this counter-insurgency conflict, so it truly becomes a site of not just the Selous Scouts but also a Rhodesian interest site.

This site should be helpful for some, due to the fact in some African countries information on the Selous Scouts and the Rhodesian/Zimbabwe War of Independence (Chimurenga War, 1966-1980) was or is BANNED!

This site is still in the working and as I find and obtain more information on the scouts, I will continually update the site as needed.

Well enjoy the site and don't forget to sign the guest book and let me know what you think.

How many billions is America giving the UN to upgrade its buildings, and then the UN lets a situation like this go on? As long as a murdering, raping tyrant is black, he is their tyrant and they are going to protect him, and ignore the needs of the poor people. What a waste the UN is.
