Zimbabwe: Fist of Tyranny

Fire of Liberty

Here's a Leader from The Times pretty much says it about Robert Mugabe and his goons in Zanu PF. Just look here:

The raised fist of the ruling Zanu (PF), once the symbol of national liberation, now signifies repression, intolerance and a capricious authoritarianism that has ruined the lives of all but an unjustly favoured few. One of Africa’s most developed countries is now its fastest declining economy. With the collapse of commercial agriculture, and the industries that serviced it, four out of five people have no job, hyperinflation has destroyed what savings they had, and hunger afflicts half the nation. Mr Mugabe offers no panaceas, instead harping on anticolonialism in a hysterical “anti-Blair” campaign. This has backfired. People hardly need telling that Mr Mugabe, not Mr Blair, is their President, and that after 25 years in power, their increasingly desperate state is his responsibility.

Poor ole Bob, he had it all and it went to his head. How many more years will Africa endure such tyrannical embarrassments.
