UK plotting to invade Zimbabwe: Mugabe spokesman

Hell, overthrowing Mugabe would be among the most moral things a nation might do.

With the international aid the world now sends his country, we could hire a first class covert ops team to take him out to finally allow his country a return to the high standard of living they enjoyed when they were still a colony of Great Britain.

...”This is the U.S. in 2108.....”

....it may come sooner than that...check out Detroit/New Orleans/Newark/Baltimore/Cleveland/Atlanta or any other city where black Democrats have legally siezed power.

This is one country where 90% of the population prays daily to be invaded by Western powers.

No doubt, but our knee-jerk liberal Western media would condemn such an action as more Western imperialism. It would save countless black Zimbabwean lives, but it wouldn't fit into to their small vocabulary of buzz words and their even smaller mind-set.

“It is not going to happen”

Too bad.

It is unfortunate how post-colonial politics and geography can muck up would could have been be a “splendid little war”.

I think this what we have to look forward to under the “Obambi” presidency: global anarchy.

The other potential geo-political dominoes we can expect to fall:

*a de facto invasion and occupation of
Siberia by China.

*A continuation of the take over of Mexico
by narco-terrorist elements.

*A non-response to the India-Pakistan
confrontation.

I predict after two years of “Obambi” multi-lateralism that people will begin to look back on the Bush Administration’s foreign policy with unrestrained nostalgia.

But Mugabe is ‘The Great ObamaNation’s” role model. That hyperinflation is just the ticket for paying off government debt. Poll the presses.

Obama needs to sit down and talk with Mugabe, no preconditions , mind you.

A few million in the bank, and a condo in Dade County should be the ticket. Mugabe moves aside and comes on board as an Obama "foreign aid" advisor, with a green card

Vanity Fair took a very candid (and honest) look at Zimbabwe/Rhodesia in their September issue: http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/2008/09/zimbabwe200809

I wish the rumor was true. Let Kenya and South Africa play a part in the Invasion. But, I don’t think it will happen until the good people of Rhodesia descend into cannibalism.

“But, I don’t think it will happen until the good people of Rhodesia descend into cannibalism.”

Yes. They are still at the “Ours is not the reason why” stage. When they get to the “Ours is but to do and die” stage maybe something will happen.

Brits have their hands full, they’re already under invasion themselves.

Mugabe had “Liberation Theology” supporters. He is a communist.

You might remember that the United Methodist Church actively undermined their own Bishop Abel Muzarewa who was Zimbabwe’s first post colonial President in favor of Mugabe because the Bishop wasn’t commie enough..

I don’t see this through Methodist glasses. Only as a stanch anti-Communist.

I know how the leaders of the Methodist Church are, and it is foreign from their tradition before the 1960’s. Many of their old members feel betrayed, or have left over this.

I am Baptist, but this has nothing to do with theology.

It is about Communism in a religious wrapper. A Lie. It is about subjection. It is un-American. It is about Totalitarianism.
