When I saw the headline I immmediately thought of Cathy Buckle.

But then I knew it couldn't be her as she had been driven off her farm near the beginning of the "hondo yeminda".

There are very few commercial farmers left and the land confiscation continues.

Very few of the confiscated farms are still in production. All the skilled farm employees are living hard in the bush or in hastily erected dagga huts or shanties near the cities where they are serving no good to the agrarian economy upon which Zimbabwe was once based.

And the west will have to send 1.2 million tonnes of maize to make up this year's shortfall in a country that once was a net agricultural exporter.

And Mugabe will complain if so much as a tonne of the maize is genetically engineered.

And Zanu PF will try to control its distribution. Hunger is used as a political weapon in Zimbabwe.

Africa Wins Again.

The blacks of Zimbabwe will be expelled or exterminated by the new masters that Mugabe is selling the country to:

Zimbabwe -- Chinese to take over former white-owned farms
The Zimbabwe government is planning to offer former white farms for free to Chinese state-owned firms in a desperate bid to revive the key agricultural sector, ZimOnline has learnt.

Zimbabwe's New Colonialists(Mugabe begins selling off his country to curry favor with the Chinese)

The police, under direct orders from Didymus Mutasa, the head of the secret police (Zimbabwe's Central Intelligence Organization), have brutally removed any competition to Chinese traders whose shops have sprung up around the capital over the past few years.
The Chinese will take over running the farms, use that as an excuse to import 100,000 young male "agricultural workers" to work on them. If Mugabe misbehaves, the young men will dig up stashes of pre-positioned weapons and take out Mugabe's government in a day

I don't think that will happen. More likely, Mugabe is getting a flow of cash into his bank accounts to shut up and allow the Chinese to flood the country with people.

What the blacks of Zimbabwe will discover once there is a critical mass of Chinese there, is that the Chinese want the mines, but do not need black workers. They have enough peasant workers they can ship over to reduce overcrowding in China. The blacks of Zimbabwe will get the same treatment the Indians got in the US: get out of the way or be exterminated

Yep, I though it might have been Cathy Buckle at first, too.
