South African Apartheid was indeed supported for the longest by the Western countries--that's something Africans have not forgotten or forgiven. There is a reason the South African response to Israel during the ongoing conflict is so strong--and slap on the faces of the likes of Jordan, Egypt and others whom I don't want to name to start some quarrel here.Also, one settler colony supports another settler colony. They all supported Apartheid South Africa also. So people are just born crooked.
I couldn't imagine marrying a WASP, we would be totally incompatible, so you probably know them better. But I know they are screwed in their colonial outposts, USA australia, Canada, because they will be minorities in our lifetime. I am with them, so I am totally screwed as well. I can tell you honestly I would not live in a non white neighbourhood or live in any country where I was discriminated. Maybe WASPS are more attached to their colonies so they will endure more hardship as minorities, but I wont. I'm going staring back to Bosnia and taking all my money as soon as I feel the heat. I'd be treated as an outsider by WASPS and treated like an enemy by the non whites. I don't need that carp unless im making some serious money. And only for as long as I'm making serious money.
We maybe getting offtopic but I have to clarify: It is my understanding (and very long) personal experience that America is not as racist as Australia and many/most countries of Europe. The American support to Israel has many dimensions--the AIPAC lobby, the stupid Christian Evangelicals, and the Military Industrial Complex; together they form a very strong ideological and economic glue that binds them. But once you remove AIPAC from this alliance, then the electoral politics in America changes and that would cause a dominoes effect in changing American politics in the Middle East. The MIA influence is active in the Russia-Ukraine war and they could be active in some other place--perhaps in China-Taiwan conflict?? The Middle East conflict was already becoming a sideshow for Americans until the Gazans started the October 7 conflict. The Evangelical Christians could concentrate on supporting the Christians in Myanmar or the Naxalites in India or blow up abortion clinics in America...
As to the bolded part... again, offtopic. I don't understand what you are saying. I guess you'd go back to Bosnia once you have enough money? In my case, there is virtually no discrimination here-- BTW, people discriminate against anything different from them, at least silently, anyway. For me, life was great in Pakistan before I came here. It is great here. And I think it would be great if I go back to Pakistan; life/inheritance was/is very good in Pakistan in my personal case. Life is good here because I have worked hard to earn it. I wish you the best in whatever you decide.
