their guerrilla warfare on early August against the colonial rule of Portugal .
But why did so happened?
The refusal of Dr. Mondlane and his self-styled War'Committee*to
send guerrillas inside, caused a small split of determined trainees who
abandoned the Frelimo military camp in Congwa , and formed an independent group*   This was in June.
Needless to say that from here on the way for world support Frelimo clique was opened. "Because Frelimo is fighting we must fjupport her"
said the Socialist World.   Then the imperialist venais went out all over
the World to spread their lies in Adolf Sichmannfs style,in order to get
money and weapons*  Yes, they did really get money for their pockets and
weapons for their masters to kill our people*
Young Mozambicans were sent and are still going in to die in a
dirty war of treason.   "You have learned to kill and to be killed and
therefore, you must go": said Dr. Mondlane*  They were facing the enemy
on every front.  They were surrounded both by Portuguese and Frelimo

gangs.  But in spite of all that, the Whitemanfs skin was in trouble*
But a strong contradiction of opinions in the struggle for liberation was gainning roots.  The united guerrillas became disorganised.
The struggle for command dominated the -canks of the guerrillas *   officers*
Everybody knows what happens in a divided Army*
To make it worse, from the headquarters in Dar Es Salaam instructions were forwarded to guerrillas* based inland to execute so-and-so
because of this-and-that.  This is the way how the tjnsorupulous leaders
did treat their people.
This inscrutable way of handling human beings made some recalcitrants to obey their diabolical orders, abandon the struggle inside and
turn back to Dar es Salaam.
But here again things went worse.  The Tanzanian Minister £oz
Home Affairs and the Executive Secretary for the Liberation Crrc^ittee,
whether to please the leaders of Frelimo or because they found the matter ultra-vires, left the freedom fighters in a hopeless state«
What should they do now?
Some of them decided to go back to the bush where thoy died as
heroes in the hands of their treacherous and venal brothers0  Others escaped to the enemy side where out of cowardice they surrendered their
patriotism, betrayed the revolution and handed over their guns and principles; and many others crossed the border to Malawi or to Zambia where
they are up today.  This was and .still is the prevailing situation in
the struggle of Mozambican people under so called Mozambique Liberation
Front.
