Yep. I realize all that. That is why Africa is destined to be a craphole for the forseeable future.

Zimbabwe is now another mess in Africa's pants that's running down its legs.

Chrissie Matthews had no comment, but had to excuse himself to go to the loo.

When will this travesty end?????????

Those of us who have followed this tragedy have concluded that it will most likely end when a coup is initiated by mid-level officers.

The Generals are too invested in the kleptocracy that is Zimbabwe.

Another scenario might be that Zimbabwe completely collapses, that its populace became refugees impacting a bordering nation, and threatening its stability. This scenario played out in Uganda and Tanzania in the 1970s, when Tanzania put an end to the regime in Uganda by invading it.

How about if we start with one well-aimed Predator ?

Then see if that brings the rest of the Thugs to a Come-to-Jesus moment....

It’ll end when Obama picks Mugabe as his VP.

Can Mugabe recall the mobs ? Is he still the puppetmaster or will it go on until he himself is overthrown by the army with the excuse of restoring order ?

The thugs have to keep that POS in power or they lose whatever "privileges" they have when/if the opposition gets control of the country.
