"Mugabe says (blames?) the food crisis on a drought earlier this year, while most analysts blames political violence and disruptions in the agriculture-based economy during the government's program to confiscate thousands of white-owned commercial farms that now lie virtually idle."

Is this by way of saying it was the whites who raised all the food crops?

What would happen if the 30,000 whites armed themselves effectively? with say a few automatic weapons?

We must bomb them on Easter like we did the Christians in Yugoslvia.!!!!

You just know Clinton did that intentionally. The fact that we fought on the side of Muslim crimminals against Christians only a few short years ago boggles the mind.

I'm all for bombing the UN on Easter, or any other day for that matter. ....and sending a few cruise missiles into Mugabe's residence isn't a bad idea either.

Cogent analysis. Plus, why do whites have to conspire with Britain to undermine the country when Mugabe is doing such a good job all by himself.

30,000 whites and 8 million blacks? Now that's true multicultural diversity!

I think we should send in a few Apache helicopters to help them out.

They don't, but Mugabe wants the suckers to think they are:

"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed and hence, clamorous to be led to safety - by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary."

- H. L. Mencken, In Politics

Then get about 3 AC-130 gunships to drop weapons to the whites. Lets give these honest hardworking folks that have been there for generations a chance!

Democracy in the Third World is a disaster. With their majority-poor populations, these vote-wielding Third Worlders can't help but vote to elect socialist-demagogue types like Mugabe in Zimbabwe, the ANC in S. Africa, Hugo Chavez in Venezuela, Lula in Brazil, ex-communists across E. Europe, Islamo-socialists in Turkey, Islamo-socialists in Indonesia, and the list goes on. There's nowhere for foreign investors to invest except China which, though nominally communist, is more welcoming of capitalism these days than any basketcase Third World republic.

And so once more we see the phenomenon of The Chain of Destruction rear its ugly head: Identification, Ostracism, Confiscation, Concentration, and Annihilation.

Never again?

Zimbabwe's Mugabe Tells the World: Leave Us Alone - Britain "the enemy" *** CHINHOYI, Zimbabwe (Reuters) - Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe called on Western powers to leave his embattled government alone Friday, warning he would respond to pressure by ratcheting up hostility toward whites in the country. Opening the annual conference of his ruling ZANU-PF party, the 78-year-old Mugabe vowed to fight on -- particularly against former colonial power Britain, which he said had become "the enemy" under Prime Minister Tony. "Leave us alone to run our affairs," Mugabe said. "Leave us alone to run our lives. We don't interfere in the affairs of Britain and no one should interfere in our own affairs." If Britain's allies want to make Zimbabwe their own issue, Mugabe said, "we will recognize them as enemies like we recognize Britain, under Mr. Blair, as an enemy of Zimbabwe. "The more they work against us, the more they express their hostility against us, the more negative we shall become to their kith and kin here." ***

If I were a white farmer there, I'd slash and burn my entire estate, ruin the ground with salt and whatever else would make it non-productive for decades and then hightail it out of there.
Perhaps the best thing we could give the whites left in Zimbabwe would be some sort of persistent blight fungus or insects (aphids? locusts?). The best thing we could give Mugabe and his "war veteran" thugs would be delivered by this:

We fought on the side of Muslims against the Soviets too, and the Serbs were conducting themselves like Soviets.

Foul sewer??? The gov't is probably the most corrupt gov't in existence but the country itself is by no means a foul sewer. As to your other comment, I cannot even begin to describe the level of disgust they register. Please join your local chapter of 'We Are Idiots' where you can find many like-minded individuals.

By the way, please don't have any kids.

Regards,
Al

Death camps soon to follow

BUt its all okay, those who murder in the name of marxism, and in the name of black versus white, are just well intentioned but misguided, unlike the reverse, which would of course be, downright evil.

What's that thing under his nose?

Is he a hare-lip?

A Hitler impersonator?

A victim of BSS? (Black Snooster Syndrome)

When we have real racism like Trent Lott praising old men at birthday parties in our midst </ immense sarcasm >
