The problem is that most of the people who will starve don't support or like their leader anymore than we do.

Sheeeeeeeeeesh. I want to know just what the thugs are going to do, once there are no more farmers , whites, Asians and black MDC supporters to terrorize and kill. Kill each other, is my guess.

With all of THIS going on and publicly known, and the stupid UN and lefties are worried about a massacre in Jenin, which did NOT happen ?

Here's a link to the Zimbabwe Commercial Farmers Union web page for more stories of farm invasions straight from the local sources.

Buckle explained that throughout the "interview" she was "polite and courteous and did not raise my voice or lose my temper and had expected a similar response from a man whose salary is paid by my taxes."

Civil discourse does not work with thugs. Thugs understand the language of violence - only. I regret to say that the sympathy I feel for the woman is muted, because she should have gotten out long ago.

As for the masses of zimbabwe that tacitly support such a regime through their inaction...let them starve. They've earned every pang of their empty stomachs.

Buckle is a white LIBERAL , who not only left ( to support , give aid , and comfort to the South African COMMUNIST ANC , along with her husband ), but then went back to Zimbabwe , and once supported Mugabe. I have absolutely NO sympathy for her at all.

"I went out to my neighbors and tried to help them pack.

The above should read, "After I and my workers shot and killed Wind and several of his gang, I went out to my neighbors with spare ammunition and helped them organize for our common deefense."

I also have little sympathy for her for precisely the same reasons. She chose to return, no one forced her to, so as far as I am concerned she must get on with it. I'm really not interested in her constant whining any more.

Well, if that's the case, I have no sympathy for her either. She supported these thugs in SA and now Zimbabwe, so let her reap what she has sown.

Buckle said that Wind and his cronies had only a few comfortable days on her farm. "They had nice hot baths and listened to their radio at a very loud volume until Wednesday when they ran the borehole dry and burnt out the electric motor. They sent a message to me saying that as I was still the owner of the farm I should pay for the borehole motor to be repaired, as they could not survive without water.

A tiny snapshot of the future....

Which makes it very amusing that she went to the thug government officials she helped put into power and asked them to compensate her for her farm, while you and I know that there is no chance of that ever happening.

"Last Saturday morning, a war veteran named Wind, accompanied by a bunch of young men, arrived on my farm in the morning. He gave my tenants and their young children two days to get off the farm and out of the house as he says it now belongs to him. Wind then went over the road and issued a verbal eviction order to my neighbors and then to the family living in their cottage," Buckle said.
This "Wind" individual is a walking advertisement for the value of the Second Amendment. Or at least time bombs.

"Several Zimbabweans interviewed by WorldNetDaily said that Mugabe's henchmen were cutting off one leg of each of the cattle on white-owned farms and locking horses in corrals before lighting the corrals on fire."

Where's PETA on this one, Sunny? Fretting about a model in a mink coat?

Then they should do something about it.

Send planes for the farmers, let the rest starve by their own hands.
