This the way down to anarchy. Zimbabwe does not have far left to fall. I think the President of SA knows this and only allows it so that he can move in and pick up the pieces when the bottom finishes dropping out.

These thugs wouldn’t be classified as 3rd rate street punks in any American city. Yet they get to ruin an entire country, which was once quite prosperous.

Nothing wrong there that several hundred billion American taxpayer dollars wouldn’t solve, eh Mr. Obama?

What a surprise... corrupt generals stage a coup d’etat by stealth in thoroughly corrupt Zimbabwe, and Robert Mugabe the thrice-dam’ned dictator doesn’t even know it.

Pray for Rhodesia.

This is where socialism leads. Redistibution of wealth, economic collapse, power vacuum, then military takeover. Change for the sake of change.

Until someone takes the Mugabeasts head, he’s not dealt with sufficiently.

Junta or no, as long as he breathes, Rhodesia suffers.

No worries Africa! China is on it's way to liberate you! In twenty years or so all your land and resources will benefit your people and you will be restored! No more dictators no more oppression!

Oh, never mind...

“They have also benefited from Mr Mugabe’s seizure of white-owned land, with farms and business concessions falling into their hands, allowing them to amass considerable wealth.”

Which has caused their nation to starve since the whites raised all the food. SA saw it too.

Replying to you from your comment in the locked post

Thought you’d be interest in this blog post I saw last month. Not well sourced, but it does kind of fill in the obvious blanks.
