Petition from the DKG to the government requesting protection dated 3 April 1891.

Schutztruppen in den deutschen Schutzgebieten. 129 Drechsler, Let Us Die Fighting, 106-111. The first major war was the 1903 revolt of the Bondelswart Nama against the deprecations of the Kharaskhoma Syndicate. The 148
Herero and Nama wars were similarly influenced by economic mistreatment.

Bridgman, 133-136. In addition, the Bondelswart rebellion on the heels of Herero unrest was premised upon cooperation between the tribes. 133 Weinberger, 423. This statement can be translated as “for this system, not another man or another penny.” The statement has been attributed to August Bebel in 1894 and Rosa Luxemburg in 1898. Bebel also declared that Germany’s colonial policy was an “embarrassment.” R101 Reichstag des Deutschen Reiches. Abteilung I Reichsgesetzgebung und-Verwaltung. XV Kolonialangelegenheiten.

Aufnahme von Anleihen für Zwecke der Schutzgebiete. 1 December 1891. 136 Even Chancellor Bülow questioned the policy before Wilhelm II. Nuhn quotes Bülow as listing four major grievances about Trotha’s tactics: “Eine Politik der totalen Vernichtung sei unchristlich. Die Trothasachen Maßnahmen seien undurchführbar. Die Vernichtungspolitik sei wirtschaftlich sinnlos. Die Proklamation würder dem deutschen Ansehen unter den zivilisierten Nationen Abbruch tun.” Nuhn, 303.
