Dare I post it... An untreated STD dragging him downward toward mental decay!!
A mercinary group called Executive decisions is based in Africa. They have a pretty clean history. The UN even considered sending them into Rwanda to save refugees but chose to allow the slaughter instead. E.D. should pay ole bobby a visit.
Foreign investment? I have to laugh. Zimbabwe sounds like the kind of country where you could bribe everyone including Mugerbe and still lose everything. The best advice on investing there is don't.
Howard Dean is in charge of a political party, not a country. Both are lunatics though.
He should have been worm food in 1979.
Executive Outcomes(EO) was a private military company, founded by Eeben Barlow in 1989 and ceasing to exist in 1999. Most, not all, of EO's employees were former South African Defense Force soldiers with special operations training.
They were succeeded by Sandline International, a now-defunct London-based private military company. The line between Sandline, Executive Outcomes, and associated companies was sometimes blurred by a complex web of interoperation, ownership, multinational holdings, and what may be deliberate obfuscation.
Sandline International became Aegis Defence Services and was recently awarded a $239 million contract by the US DoD to supply “75 close protection bodyguard teams to coalition and Iraqi officials” as well as “co-ordinate intelligence gathering for other private security firms in Iraq, including the multi-billion dollar US Dyncorp”
Executive Outcomes ceased trading on January 1, 1999, as South Africa passed an anti-mercenary law, though apparently its Pretoria, South Africa office remained open for some time.
Now you are somewhat up-to-date on the game....lol.
One of our finest presidents, IMHO, though I wasn't old and sensible
enough to appreciate him at the time, was born in 1911, and became
president in 1981....he served for 2 terms.
Another totalitarian, another wrecked economy, another record of thousands, even millions, of deaths. Ho hum, what else is new, eh?

The people need to fix this mess themselves. Better to die on your feet than live on your knees.
Yeah.....Castro's a nut job too - it's called bloody dictatorship rule.
Actually it is a group called Executive Outcomes. For those times you want to send the very best.
Ex Rhodies were allowed as well as ex spear of the nation.
Sorry didn't see your earlier comment on EO.
That's the name. I knew I was close.
Why are some phrases used by so many different people in power in so many different places?
