It's just a matter of time before the coalition government starts to have "mysterious" accidents and all this is "scantioned" by the remainder of the coalition....

Or it's blamed on the imperialist, zionist West...

I'm going to be very annoyed if Mugabe kicks the bucket before he's brought to book...

Such a shame he has killed off Rhodesia with the Whites in power the country worked very well strong economy.

In Theory what Mugabe did was exactly the same as Mandela both were terrorists and they won their political cause. Mugabe however carried on his political fight wanting total equality for blacks and that means "wealth sharing" or stripping it off thw whites. However where his plan failed was that unfortunately due to the whites appartied the blacks had zero education so you have mass ignorance and trying to get them to run a business/farm just doesnt work.

I agree with the wealth sharing but over many many generations. Get the blacks educated then & only then can they really add value otherwise its sadly mass ignorance - all due to the appartied.

Dont want to sound like a racist but are there any white people left in Zimbabwe? I though most sought refuge in South Africa, Australia, UK et al.

I don't know about whites in Zim, but I was in Joburg last year, and at every set of lights there were about 20-30 black people selling stuff, collecting stuff and all sorts from the stopped cars. The Saffers suggested that they were from over the border, driven out by the failing farms (since the takeovers, the farmers have no idea how to farm, so the farms go to the wall), lack of food and lunatic inflation levels.

Oh good. I guess we will soon be providing more aid then.
