Description

Father Kalangula's organization in South West Africa (a/k/a Namibia) had won an

internationally observed democratic election against the Soviet client group, SWAPO (the South West Africa People's Organization) but faced now the opposition of the Soviet-leaning forces in the UN. Father Kalangula makes an impressive and moving case for his side, as in this reply to the examiner*, Aryeh Neier: "You said how it would be difficult for political parties to be in prison during the election. I think it is even harder when you have [two] political organizations, one has a military wing and one has not, and when your supporters are being subjected to murders and abductions--that is even worse."
