Thats right, and when the white colonialists got there they massacred almost all of the natives there. The same happened in australia, thats why you never see any aborigine's popping in for a cuppa in neighbors.

The "black" or zulu way of war was unbarbaric, their tactics were to scare away attackers with as little bloodshed as possible. When the slavers attacked, the zulu's did the same and the whites shot them down in droves, after which the zulu's gave them land, as was the tradition as a mark of respect, as a symbol of peace. They helped the injured whites and then the slavers basically stabbed them in the back. This is the barbarity akin to that the vikings showed (raping, pillaging and killing)

You're right of course, and I agree with many of your (contraversial) concepts.
