Zimbabwe

Robert Mugabe proclaims that "only God" can remove him from office, as Zimbabwe's opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai pulled out of next week's runoff election and sought refuge in the Dutch embassy. Mugabe declared that "The MDC will never be allowed to rule this country - never ever"

All this while the overwhelming majority of Zimbabwe’s population is starving, and while murder, torture, and rape continue. Farms in this erstwhile bread basket of Africa are gutted. Economy is in shambles with 100000% plus inflation. Unemployment is hovering above 80%. Average lifespan is less than 27 years. There is ban on democratic movements and media. Elections are rigged and people are slaughtered like animals.


Where is the United Nations? Why the government of US or UK along with some regional powers isn’t orchestrating a covert assassination? Why isn't he dragged off and shot. The old man must be put out of his miseries.

You can count on the west to intervene when it shouldn't, and not when it ought to.

When Zimbabwe was born out of Rhodesia I was in school, and I keenly followed it. At that time Mugabe was such a hero. What a fall for him, and his country. It's no wonder the west has no respect for African nations.

How could we say that the west is not taking revenge on him and it's people for abolishing the white minority rule? Even the western press knows that he's not in full control of the affairs there, the military leaders are using him and probably the people as a shield. If the west is so concerned about the people of Zimbabwe, what they need to do is send them food aid.
