How can the OAU and the rest of the world stand back and let Mugabe stop all aid to the poor in his country and continue to reign supreme over a country that he has raped, pillaged and continues to prevent his people from leading a better life? Why don't they send in their troops to oust him and his cronies and allow a human being to lead Zimbabwe to a restored and brighter future?
Because there is no oil in ZImbabwe and because the masses are ignorant, they always will be...in Africa.... the minority blacks are educated and see this , but are so small in number they cannot make difference....
ive been saying the same for years,no one listens,all to no avail

Remember what happened after the '94 elections in SA. After the ANC won, the ignorant masses arrived in the suburbs and began laying claim to the houses of the non-masses. "But Mandela promised us houses if we vote for him". Duh...
How else do you get voted into power in Africa. Exploitation of the ignorant masses. In Mugabe's case it's worked wonders. And yet they still vote for him... double duh...
It's always been that way EVERYWHERE Carl. Cest la vie!
Read in the papers the other day that Mugabe is using food as a political tool. Don't vote for me and you won't get any food. Think of the poor little children. Always the innocent that suffer.
Sick sad and at the moment he's in europe .. surely an easier target there ?? divine retribution for him .. pity is he so evil not even the devil would want him in hell ..
shoot the mother f**ker,give me a gun
Here you go Bobby... shooter
Wasn't there a plot a couple of years ago to take him out? I'm not sure who exactly was behind it, MI6 or CIA. The assassin was supposed to shoot him Chris Hani style in the foyer of a hotel in London, but chickened out at the last moment. Bad assasin, no biscuit.
Carl there is a book called "SEE YOU IN NOVEMBER", its about a British SAS guy that worked for the Rhodesians during the war.
He was suppose to take Magabe out during the Rhodesian elections but was stopped at the last minute.
Very good read, can't remember his name.
Magabe is very lucky to be alive today.
Not lucky just plian old EVIL ..
Thanks for the info Mike. Apparently the SAS operator in question was betrayed by his own side at the last minute. Seems like our own Eugene de Kok was not the only war hero to be handed to the wolves by the "order givers" in parliament.
Call me sad and twisted but why involve the SAS when you have the homegrown Selous Scouts who train the SAS......and probably are waiting for the chance to do what that gay rights activisy has been the only one to do - get close to Bob!
meanpuff
The problem was the timing of the plan. The Selous Scouts had long since been disbanded at that stage. I think MI6 wanted the deed done by one of their "own" for propaganda purposes. Just to show the world that Britain will not tolerate this kind of treatment of it's citizens in Zim, dealt out by Mugabe and his cronies. Something like the Falklands, but on a much smaller scale.

was that the scuffle i saw on early morning TV in Rome last week / .. wanted to check the papers later in day but had seminar on for whole day and then socialising afterwards .. so did not get paper ..
I just don't know why someone doesn't just shoot him, like who will miss him anyway!
I heard on BBC a few nights ago that his full title was, get this, Sir Robbert Mugabe, how's that for a hum dinger!!
idontknow
@Sandy - Nope, this happened quite a few years ago. The plan was to detonate a bomb in the foyer of Mugabe's hotel in London as he was leaving for his daily chores. There were many roumers afterwards as to why the SAS operator never carried out his mission to the end. One of them was that his conscience bothered him about the number of innocent civilians that would be killed together with Mugabe. Another more believable one, was that MI6 tipped off Mugabe's bodyguards just before he was planning to leave the hotel.
And for those who might have missed it - the UK Government want to strip Mugabe of his knighthood. Why it took HM's doosie PM so long to begin the process is anyone's guess but it is an insult to the Queen and all of the UK citizens and the traditions and reasons for honouring a person with a knighthood.
Maybe they should re-title him and honor him with a night-wood title, then chop him up!
spell mugabe backwards----------------i will spell it in the yorkshire way----eee,baye --gum, meaning--well ill be fooked, i rest my case,ps mike,can you send me some ammo for the gun
