has anyone seen what is happening in zimbabwi on the news

if only they had oil perhaps america and england would help out

for those that dont know

their president is bulldozing whole districts/areas of poor peoples homes who dared to vote against him in their ellection

if that isnt enough he is then gathering up the people he just made homeless and is putting them into camps under arrest

when hitler did this to the jews it was unacceptable

when the zimbabwian leader does it nothing is done exept for the UN making a statement that it is awfull

Mugabe made some comment that they were making the place look untidy and something had to be done about it! Something should be done about him.
 
We might as well send in troops and interfere there as well. We do it everywhere else.

Bit like robbing an OAP of his akkers .Eh Chav.
 
i dont have any oil so dont count on america helping you out lol :D

unless they want to fight over the contents of my chip pan lol
 
The UN are being very spineless and mealy-mouthed about Zimbabwe. Surely Mugabe can be tried in the Hague, for crimes against humanity.
 
yes he probably could but unlike iraq zimbabwi dosnt have anything worth our time to go in and fight for


i remember when i was younger on the news about hundreds of people been slaughtered with macheties in a grave yard yet no one went to help

more recently white farmers were murdered and their land taken from them or if they survived they were kicked out of the country and all their money and property confiscated

i think that was africa

my point is nothing ever gets done unless their is somthing in it for the government

they hide behind the pretence that they goto war to save people fron oprression and cruel regiemes yet fail to sort out any problems unless the country has somthing like an oil reserve

Havee friends in nearby Rwanda & it seems the semeticism is starting up there again. The old government troops who were deposed & chased out of the country are carrying out raiding parties & killing up to 200 Rwandan villagers at a time. Expect a return to the bloodshed when the Hutus & Tutsies clashed. Seems like Africa is becoming the continent where life has no value.

Sorry to bring up an ancient thread but I think we should take note.
Interfence in this country would not be a bad idea.
I love to see healthy kids of whatever race, creed or conviction.
The kids in this nation are starved and neglected because of Magabi.
Franco, El Duche, Hitler and Sadam ran regimes like this and I'ts time this was brought to an end.
We can all be flippant but I would rather see this Tyrant on the end of a rope for the crimes that he and his cronies have commited.
Do you suggest that we smile and the world smiles with you?
God perish the thought. :eek:

Let's not try for a glib answer on on this one....this is serious.

Cashy....you are not starving...nor by the grace of God will you ever be.
true but am pig sick of em pumping money into these places, when pensioners are freezing due to high fuel charges, far as i'm concerned we come first.

That has got to be a contadiction in terms.
Your leaders choice.....not mine.

rubbish, every leader in my lifetime allocates money to world causes, whatever situation is occuring at home, i'm saying this simply, when summats sadly lacking at home, THAT to me should have priority over owt else.
 
Mugabe should have been topped years ago, but thats another issue. today the Archbishop of York is calling fer him to be overthrown, did he do that when the despot was slaughtering people?
 
It's a little bit paternalistic don't you think when you say someone should do something about it , hope you are not suggesting that Africans are incapable of running their own affairs and need the white-man to give them guidence and direction .
The British put him in power , Thatcher danced a waltz with him at Commonwealth Prime Ministers conference celebrations , and folks still say Ian Smith was a bad guy ,
Surprising how quiet ex Labour Minister Peter Hain as been in all this, since he one of the main architects of this debacle.

sorry , this was intended as an answer to Robroys post

OK Cast Iron Johnny....The British did give him power and handed over a country to him that was one of the most well run country on the African continent....He and his cronies have destroyed that country.
The white farmers who knew how to cultivate the land were deposed and the land was taken over by undereducated peasants put there by Magabi and now he kills them if they dont vote to keep him in power.
If Britain was not over commited due to the lack of understanding and scripted lies from the outgoing President of your country maybe we could do something about this maniac ;)

And just which African President from the countries surrounding Zimbabwe do you think would allow troops from a previous colonial regime into their country for such a move ? (Political suicide)
Lets be honest about things, Britain, Europe on the whole and the West don't give two hoots for Africa , the only places which seem to be making a bit of success out of things are the former French colonies in west africa who have kept strong links with the Quai d'Orsay (French Foreign Ministry), with none of the Nigerian corruption bull.
I think the last sentance of your post to tangentally put the blame for Zimbabwes problems on George Bush is ludicrous , the guy may not be the sharpest knife in the box , but no way can he carry the can for this , as I have said previously , any blame for Mugabe rests fairly and squarley in Whitehall and the elected British leaders, no doubt the current crop will have more excuses than Nuremberg about how they inherited the problems from previous Govts. but it's still their problem , no running away from it.
