Mugabe is starving his own people *** People are being starved in Zimbabwe by President Robert Mugabe's deliberate and systematic ploy of using food shortages to cling to power. Millions of people are going hungry not, as Mr Mugabe's government claims, because of poor rains but as a direct result of its policy of denying food to opposition supporters and enriching its loyalists. Last night, the deadline passed for the mass eviction of 2,900 of Zimbabwe's white commercial farmers, for decades the mainstay of the agricultural sector. Mr Mugabe ordered them to abandon their homes, land and livelihoods by midnight.***
You
know what will happen-- with the formerly productive white farmers- who fed a continent- gone, they will be replaced by subsistence farmers who will rapidly deplete the soil, and all other resources, in their mad and futile stuggle to merely survive.
This has happened time and again over there, and this time will be no different.
