I will say a prayer for Cathy tonight. In fact, I will close my eyes and say one right now.

Hyper-inflation, government chaos and a persecuted minority sounds too much like Germany prior to Hitler. Peace marches & organized demonstrations will only give the corrupt regime an identifiable target. If these people lack the arms and/or will to rectify this horror they should flee the country before the wholesale slaughtering begins. The U.N. is apparently too busy scheming against the U.S. to concern itself with Zimbabwe.
Of course, if tragedy occurs they'll find the time to blame America for it.

The "government" in this poignant portrait is the same animal that liberals adore, worship and feed with endless new powers.

***It's like being in a horror movie or a slap stick comedy just doing something simple like going shopping in Marondera this week. The person at the supermarket till in front of me had 47 thousand dollars worth of groceries and was paying the bill with huge blocks of 50 and 20 dollar notes.

The teller could barely cope with counting all these mountains of small bills and on his lap he had a cardboard box to put the money into as it wouldn't all fit into his till. He told me he needed a new box for every third customer and the managers office looked a lot like a warehouse.

Amazingly though, there is an incredible feeling in the air this week. A mixture of excitement, anticipation and relief is palpable in the country as we all know that at last the time has come for action. ***

Bump!

Have you heard anything about Ian Smith? Is he still on his farm? Is he still alive? I'm surprised that Mugabe hasn't come for him yet.

Its an utter tragedy that a nation that was as beautiful as Rhodesia under Smith was could fall so far so fast.
