The Boer War 1899 - 1902
I watched this as some parts were interesting but I feel there is plenty propaganda in there against the Boers.Last edited by KK20; 13-07-2016 at 17:44.

Any post Apartheid treatise on the Boer War will want to paint the Boers in a bad light. Heck, our kid's minds is pumped full of this anti-white shit. I asked my kids the other day about Paul Kruger, and they had no idea who he was. My one kid is now 16, the other will be 14 soon.
Our schools are forming children with no identity.

I think Anglo-Boer War is correct given that South Africa as we know didn't actually exist until 1910.

It's been renamed the South African War by historians. The Anglo-Boer reference excludes all other participants and it did lead to the creation of the borders of present day South Africa.

I'll stick to calling it the Anglo-Boer War.

War memorials in the UK use the term "Boer War"
Don’t take life too seriously, no one gets out alive.
