When I went to Zambia 2 years ago on safari I met a couple who had owned a farm in Zimbabwe and lost it to Mugabe. We talked a lot over dinners, and are still in touch via Facebook. Lots of interesting stories, and they lost several friends in the fighting that led up to their having to finally flee. He and his family do live in Zambia now.

He has been flying his little Cessna into Zimbabwe and over his old farm to see what's been going on, and the fields have not been used and the buildings are just falling down... they haven't been doing anything with the farm.

He's been working with the World Court for years now, and is still hoping that will eventually result in some sort of compensation.

Does anyone know how the white farmers were received in Zambia? Were they welcomed with open arms and integrated into Zambian society? Were they grudgingly accepted? Were they barely tolerated? Were they resented and discriminated against?

Expect Zimbabwe to invade Zambia down the road.
