Jonas Malheiro Savimbi (August 3, 1934 February 22, 2002) led UNITA, a rebel group that fought against the initially pro-Soviet MPLA in the Angolan Civil War until his death in a clash with Government troops in 2002. With support from the governments of the United States, the People's Republic of China, South Africa, Israel, several African leaders (FAclix HouphouAt-Boigny of CAte d'Ivoire, Mobutu Sese Seko of Zaire, King Hassan II of Morocco and Kenneth Kaunda of Zambia), and foreign mercenaries from Portugal, Israel, South Africa, and France, Savimbi spent much of his life battling Angola's Marxist-inspired government, which was supported by weapons and military advisers from the Soviet Union, Cuba, and Nicaragua (under the Sandinistas). The war ultimately became one of the most prominent Third World conflicts of the Cold War.Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.
