Irish rocker Bob Geldof fired a broadside at President Robert Mugabe at the weekend branding the Zimbabwean leader "a thug" who has destroyed his country..............//................Geldof also criticised South Africa's President Thabo Mbeki for failing to intervene and help address the crisis in Zimbabwe and said Mbeki's stance was a "serious negation of responsibility."

What an a**hole. On one hand he criticizes these thugs, yet on the other hand he is trying to intimidate other nations into forgiving debt ranging in billions that these thugs pocketed AND has the gall to ask for billions more for these same thugs. How do these lunatics ever manage to garner world wide following is beyond my comprehension. Perhaps my lack of understanding is due to my never having worshiped before the altar of rock-n-roll. I enjoyed the music but didn't deify the performers.
