"Teacher, Anti-colonialist, Friend of Cuba" - Mugabe arrives in Havana - Good LINKS to Gadaafi's grip on Zimbabwe.

FAMINE - With planning, less corruption, African hunger avoidable

Mugabe dishes out goodies to cronies*** "The United Nations says this is our longest dry spell in 20 years, and yet all our dams are almost 80 percent full. Our dams are so full because the water has not been used to irrigate crops. There are no crops in the ground because government supporters stopped farmers from growing food because they wanted the land for their masters - and now 6 million people face starvation. What a sickening irony." Buckle said that last week, Zimbabwean Agriculture Minister Joseph Made said that any white farmer who did not put a crop of wheat into the ground would have his farm listed for seizure. ***

At 78, Mugabe is a left-winger who counts Cuba's Fidel Castro and Libya's Muammar Gaddafi among his foreign allies.

Bump!

I have asked my fellow FReepers before to give me their opinions regarding the silence the US media is taking toward the disgraceful events happening in Zimbabwe, & it seems like none of you want to talk about it, either. Therefore, I'm gonna ask it again: why is it that the only place I can learn about the horrific events in Zimbabwe are on FreeRepublic or WorldNetDaily? Why is the American press not telling the us about this government-induced tragedy??? Why isn't a "fair & balanced" news organization such as Fox News keeping this under the rug, considering the fact that they aren't supposed to have the liberal bias that other networks do? I'm very disappointed that even Fox won't say anything!

I'm very surprised that Farakhan sided with Mugabe on the issue of seizing the lands the whites seized from the native blacks. Mugabe is helping establish the "norms" against which any claim for reparations by US blacks must be based. IOW, for an argument FOR reparations to succede, it must be established that US blacks are worse off by virtue of their ancestors having been "stolen" than they would be had they been born and raised in mother Africa. Mugabe has done a whole lot to make sure that American blacks look like slavery was the best thing that could have happened to their ancestors.

Ha it's the village idiot and the 2 runners up..

Mugabe should be torn by dogs and his bleeding carcass fed to hogs...if his head remains intact, stick it on a pike!

But he'll probably get the Nobel Peace Prize.

"...Zimbabwean Agriculture Minister Joseph Made said that any white farmer who did not put a crop of wheat into the ground would have his farm listed for seizure."

The farms are already listed for seizure! Thugs and crooks run the United Nations...someone get us the h*** out of that rogue organization!

Mugabe vowed on Tuesday to defend his government against Western "bullies" ...

What a joke. Mugabe is nothing less than a terrorist.

I think the lamestream media is afraid to report this story for fear of being branded racist. The only place you hear about this stuff is on talk radio.

How will it possible help a starving nation to have its farmers thrown off of their own farms? Huh? I would like to know how Jackass Mugabe is planning to feed his own people. Oh, that's right! He'll let them starve as per the usual dictatorial method...
