Zimbabwean authorities began seizing white-owned commercial farms in 2000, causing a collapse in food production and the loss of tens of thousands of jobs.

Let none of us forget this little fact when Zimbabwe and Namibia come pleading to the World Bank and International Monetary Fund for help. It's their own violent, racist policies that are causing their problems. To assist them financially only gives them the imprimatur of the U.S. and other nations who might contribute.

I believe these policies are the sort of thing the UN supports and promotes and thus the UN will reward those countries in Africa that follow those enlightened policies.
