About time they got all the whites out of there.
You got a problem with reality?
Singing “99 whiteys still on the farms, 99 whiteys still, shoot one down, cut off his crown, 98 whiteys still on the farms”.
Mugabe singing, “Let’s have another verse”. And Zimbabwe dies a little more.
Could be a great revolution in old Rhodesia when this red monster dies.
Actually, Mugabe has it entirely right. Return the land to nature, and reduce the human population to near zero. Between the land reform and the famine, he has it covered.
Why insist on saving a culture who does not want to be saved or helped? Leave them all alone, obviously they have all the answers. Whatever it becomes it will be of their own doing. For the sake of sanity leave them alone to succeed or make a mess of it as they desire. Give your time to a better ROI.
Any white person still living in Rhodesia is mentally defective. Does Mugabe need to drive to your house and personally execute your family before you will realize that you have no future there?
Bermuda? Trinidad? Prince George's County, Maryland? It's more accurate to say that the vast majority of black countries and communities are crime- and poverty-ridden. At the same time, it's clear that India, of all places, is worse off than many black-run countries. With the exception of Haiti, no black-run Caribbean country is worse off than India. Given the cards they've been dealt, IQ-wise, blacks haven't done all that badly. Zimbabwe is a hell-hole because Mugabe is a Communist, not because he's a racist.
35 years ago, when Harare was still called Salisbury, you had to carry - most often open carry. It was quite beautiful in places.
I know a guy who had his farm taken a few years ago by them, and he occasionally flies over it in his little Cessna to check it out. He says the fields are unused and the buildings are run down and falling apart.
They took farms and no one's bothering to run them.
He lives across the river in Zambia now and is hoping that cases that have been dragging through the World Court will somehow get him his land back... but he's not holding his breath.

My wife’s relatives in Vietnam actually are getting some money back for land taken by the communists. Of course the original amount was not to their liking so they are still fighting for a more reasonable number. Causing some problems as part want to take the offer in fear of getting nothing later.
A slow and frustrating process for sure, but it least it gives one hope.
Kinda like Gaza and the farms that were left to the Palestinians. It isn’t the color of the skin but the content of the character.
The land grabs from the white farmers has destroyed Zimbabwe's food economy. People are starving in what used to be one of the most productive "bread baskets" in Africa.
I think the “racist paranoia” part was where people were ascertaining that its going to happen here. No, its not.
Indeed....I suppose I should feel some sympathy for them but I mean how many blazing neon signs do they need to get the message?
Reparations are needed to correct past injustice.
Not necessary, the farms will kuput in two years.
