Mugabee is a socialist. They will stand back, do nothing and blame the U.S. or global warming or something like that when this reaches critical mass.
Zimbabwe is a classic case of a nation the UN should be moving on.
If the UN ignores the impending tragedy, as it seems to be doing, I've no idea why any civilzed nation would continue to support it.
Socialists hate religion especially christianity.
Before Zimbabwe's independence in 1980, the Catholic Church built schools and hospitals at farms it owned across the country to provide education and health care services to blacks who were marginalised by the country's former white rulers.
*** Interesting. I suppose he doesn't want any of the children to get educated. How Leopold-esque of Mugabe. Kick out the missionaries! Not that the Rhodesian government liked them being there either but they let them stay.
