Rhodesia (and I will always call it Rhodesia) has a history sadly. There is absolutely no excuse for the genocide, beatings and so on. But we will always have a world where there is wrong - we will never have utopia and while there is wrong it reminds us of right.

well I know what's wrong and what's right and I certainly don't need the likes of Mugabe or Hitler or Fred West or any moron to remind me what's wrong - I already know. I know we'll never have Utopia and that life will never be fair, much as I'd like it to be.

Well it's getting to look more likely that he's on his way out!!!!

What I want to know is why is he actually still living when the average life span is something like 34 years!

AnnCardiff Report 2 Apr 2008 22:47

cos he's got plenty of food and water and lives in a massive mansion he had built for himself - that's why!!!

I so hope he is out Ann - that man has needed to be stopped for such a long time! Sorry don't agree with Errol at all about needing people like Mugabe to balance - in fact am sure we do not need people like Mugabe at all.

thanks for that Kaz - I was beginning to think I was alone on that one!!!! Please God he goes without a fuss - they've had enough misery in Zambabwe - they need stability now and some non-corrupt government officials. Be a good idea if they invited back all the white farmers they chucked out - at least food was being grown and the Zimbabweans had jobs and housing - now they have nothing

But apparently there are now fears that the new government (and let us not forget that is not the case yet) is perceived as being just as bad

Ann what worries me is that he won't go even after all this and there will be a bloodbath - I sincerely hope I am wrong!

Of course there will be a blood bath - if anybody believes that this election will sort everything out then they are at best naive - civil war is looming

I have this image in my mind of the Zanu-PF party adopting that as their song at the annual party conference

I never thought the election would sort anything in fact am surprised it hasn't escalated sooner!
Maybe the new government (if they ever get into power) are corrupt but it has to be a step in the right direction.
