The Tswana speakers have long invited trouble, now they'll get it.

 If you remember the story of how a camel slowly but surely encroached into the tent of a Bedouin, finally kicking the tent owner out, then you will understand how the Kalanga nation foolishly sacrificed their language to the whims of Seretse Khama and his British overlords, finally losing even the right to have their staple food, zengwe or millet available in the shops of Northern Botswana.

I recently read yet another infuriating comment from a Tswana bigot. Following Letsile Tebogo's heroic feat at the Paris Olympics, someone referred to us as Botswanans. The Tswana bigot then rudely responded with something like "We are not Botswanans, but Batswana!". I say "Yes, we are Botswanans; not tribal Tswanas but simply people who are native to the country that was wrongly named "Botswana".

The war must be taken to the Tswanas if our country is to be saved. The Tswanas adamantly refuse to call places by their correct names because place names are nearly always Kalanga names: Donotha; Mulipulule; Matathani; Gaa-nzi; Kumagwana; etc,etc. The Tswanas, helped by 5th Column Kalangas, continue to refer to Dibithi (not Dibete) as the dividing line between the north and south of Botswana.  I fail to understand how the Dibete cordon fence divides the country into north and south. The geographic division between north and south is at Serule area, one hundred and eighty (180 Km) kilometers to the North of Dibete. When the Tswanas refer to Dibete as the dividing line, what they mean is that as far as they are concerned, Botswana is that part of the country where Tswana language is natively spoken. That way Dibete becomes the dividing line, with the Kgatlas, Kwenas etc to the south and Ngwatos to the north.

We have been fed lots of lies about the Bakwena being the "core" of tswanaDOM, such that even the people of Lesotho and the Bakhwa/Bakulolo of North West South Africa now call themselves Bakwena. The real truth though is that Bakwena are Balisi (herders). They were the people responsible for looking after livestock during the Anunnaki presence on Earth. Today the people of Georgia, it would seem, are the original Kalanga Bakwena. Their capital city "Tblisi" loudly declares "Tibalisi (We are stock herders)". So the Tswana/Sumerian angle of Bakwena is a lie. Georgian names such as Shakashvilli (shaka dzi bili) are clean Kalanga words that tell the well known stories of "looking for two cows" that Bakwena know about their history.
