They weren't losing militarily, even with South Africa cutting them off the guerrillas couldn't approach core areas without being cut down. The problem was the strain of the war meant Rhodesia could no longer support the standards of living that white people migrated to Rhodesia for in the 1950s and 1960s, and so liberal and leftist elements among the whites won out over hardliners in some vain hope that "majority rule" won't simply result in dictatorship. Of course Mugabe turned out to be that dictator and standard of living fell, not just for whites but for blacks, and remained stagnant for decades.⏱ 19h↩
