"Perhaps it is a racial thing - they don't like some of us whites, or all of us whites. They want what we have," he says.

He needs to buy a clue. It is nothing but a racial thing. The story that will never be told is how productive farmland feeding a nation and allowing for exports (with white farmers) has been turned into a wasteland needing outside assistance (under blacks.)

The plight of the white farmers is a story often told, but the plight of the black farm workers whose livelihoods depended on the commercial farms are the true sufferers.

*** I agree with that.

I wonder if this story is being reported on national US news ?
I quit watching TV years ago because they were so slanted.

At least I never hear anything about this Mugabe devil on the radio which I still do listen to occasionally.
