I hope to Brits do mount an invasion. We should be glad to hold their coats if they do so.

It would be a teaching moment for the Left in U.S. and the U.K. for the Brits to apply the Bush doctrine to Zimbabwe.

Failing states that threaten their own citizens and other states sacrifice their sovereignty in the course of doing so. Zimbabwe, on the geo-political level, is a public health risk to the international community. The rest of the world has both a political and moral warrant to contain the contagion.

It would be the height of irony if the Left calls of for the application of the Bush doctrine to Zimbabwe. Since the Left is shameless in its hypocrisy I will not be surprised if they do so.

Nah, the UK nor any military force should intervene, Zimbabwe should collapse under the weight of it’s corrupt and failed regime.

It will be interesting to see what the Obamao does in re Mugabe.

It is not going to happen.

An invading force would have to cross Mozambique or South Africa and no nouthern African Nation would assist, or even tolerate, Britain to invade an African country.
