football_fan 42 Posted December 30, 2004 Mugabe.. Simply a brilliant master of justice for al of Zimbabwe and an example for the free world.Defier of Imperialism and leader of all Africans.Support him my black brothers! James, I respectfully disagree with your opinion. What Africans want most of all is good government, economic opportunities, security and a just society. Robert Mugabe has failed on all four fronts. Regarding his health, I have not heard any recent news since his trip to South Africa last year. Anyone has an update? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tuber Mirum 125 Posted December 30, 2004 What Africans want most of all is good government, economic opportunities, security and a just society. Robert Mugabe has failed on all four fronts. That's not too much to ask, is it? I can't think of any country in the world that has all those things except perhaps Switzerland. The rest of us have to make do with "Freedom" and "Democracy". Perhaps if they discovered enough oil in Africa, the US could pop over there and show them how it's done. Economic opportunity is always there, if only for Haliburton. Mugabe is a symptom of humanity, like many other leaders before, present and yet to come. Some worse some less bad. Perhaps if he dies the next one will be no better. Most leaders fail on those fronts you mention because they lack honesty and vision, preferring greed and hipocrisy instead. If they are cunning enough and have the right connections they can get nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in spite of having murdered many more people than Mugabe ever will.

Anubis the Jackal 77 Posted June 8, 2005 Mugabe not dead Interesting that the report mentions him 'scoffing at rumours' but is only reported second hand. No actual word from the big fella. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Prince Charles Posted June 8, 2005 He's not dead. I was having a lovely chat with him over supper just last night... Sorry, what's that you're telling me? Oh, I see, what I meant to say was "haven't seen the evil dictator in ages" ever since I shook his hand the other wee... Oh, sorry again! Better shut up now!

maryportfuncity 10,645 Posted June 17, 2005 What gets me is the widespread belief in voodoo and similar forms of spooky medicine in some parts of Africa. Surely any idiot could work out that if sticking pins in dolls and invoking curses worked Mug Abe would've been dead years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,645 Posted March 26, 2007 Talk about desposing him, internal ferment in his own party and/or violence in the country leading to the end of his regime. Just a possibility he'll find himself on the business end of a machete or summat, time to revive this thread methinks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brinsworth House Baiter 12 Posted March 27, 2007 Talk about desposing him, internal ferment in his own party and/or violence in the country leading to the end of his regime. Just a possibility he'll find himself on the business end of a machete or summat, time to revive this thread methinks. I certainly hope so. It makes me sick that in this day & age the rest of the world simply shakes their heads, lament something along the lines of 'oh, that Bob, but his nice wife does spend a lot in our shops when she's here' and let him carry on. I take it there isn't any oil in his country? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I take it there isn't any oil in his country? Even if not, surely a claim that we have 'some' evidence he's been hiding oil reserves below ground and we need to invade to have a really really good look for it would be a good enough excuse to invade? In a list of 'excuses used to invade liberate a country', it's not even nearly the worst I've heard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,645 Posted March 27, 2007 If we wanted to invade we could've done it ages ago, the notion Zimbabwe could put up or would be willing to put up much resistance isn't really sustainable. The army would crumble in the face of a western invasion. Neighbours everywhere but south aren't that much better off financially and South Africa have enough problems without taking on Zimbabwe, hence the lack of troops streaming over the border. The problem of what to do once we were in there would be the same, on a smaller scale, than Iraq. Again, this isn't so much a country as a land with tribes and factions that could be tipped into civil war in the wrong circumstances. On a more positive note, if he keeps beating up the leader of the opposition and then the self-same bloke takes over from Mugabe, I think there may eventually be a movie and Mr T could star in it, since a well pummelled Morgan Tsvangirai looks just like the A team star.

Anubis the Jackal 77 Posted April 3, 2007 Might be worth keeping an eye on Pius Ncube , Catholic Archbishop of Bulawayo and outspoken critic of the Mugabe regime.

maryportfuncity 10,645 Posted July 8, 2007 Abel Muzorewa, has - apparently - been approached to oppose Mugabe next year. He's only a year younger than Mugabe, and - therefore - likely to struggle to stand up to the treatment the Zimbabwian police are happy to hand out to Mugabe's opponents.

Anubis the Jackal 77 Posted July 17, 2007 Ncube sued for adultery Obviously in no way related to his attacks on the Mugabe regime. Did anyone else catch the ridiculous shenanigans on the news about Mugabe forcing shops to sell goods for the stupidly undervalued Zimbabwe dollar rather than the unofficial US dollar prices, leading to TV's going for about a tenner (UK) and police leading the way in clearing the shelves. RIP Zimbabwe. Might be worth keeping an eye on Pius Ncube , Catholic Archbishop of Bulawayo and outspoken critic of the Mugabe regime. If only because he sounds like he should be a games console.

VSBfromH 74 Posted August 22, 2007 Mugabe I heard is suffering from a mild form of dementure. WTF is "dementure"?! Well, it seems from this that even some "professional" institutions don't know how to spell "dementia": Dementure Care Maybe if Mr. Mugabe could see out his days in a Dorset nursing home!
