I hate the idea that anyone thinks they can trifle with my country. I would rather reinforce the idea that painful death follows for people who make the attempt.

Ivan, I like your style.

If Blair were a man (or even a woman like Margaret Thatcher) Royal Marines would even now be arresting the thug Mugabe and all of his henchmen. Isn't that what that stupid "International Court" is supposed to be for?

However, he is just another Euroweenie, so nothing will be done.

He'll be addressing them on September 12th I believe, when President Bush is scheduled to speak before the United Nations.

Mugabe, Nujoma and Mbeki are Marxist-Leninists. And the world wonders why southern Africa is in the toilet with the rest of the continent's basket cases.

Man you are way out of line talking about Great Britain like that. She is a great nation still, and though she has her problems today she is far from a "third world forward staging camp" as you put it.

What Tony Blair is more likely to say: I don't understand why Mr. Mugabe is blaming the good people of Great Britain for their problems. Of course, everyone knows, the United States and their irresponsible cowboy president are to blame for the poverty in Zimbabwe and Africa in general. The UK and Africa are in this together, brother.

Mugabe thinks he's Stalin. His purge of the white farmers is much like what Stalin did to the kulaks, the forced starvation included.

I thinks there's more than a passing similarity. As I understand it, the true agenda behind Mugabe's "land for the natives" rhetoric is that by destroying the only productive farms in the country, he assures starvation will follow. Starvation means that he who hands out food has power. Mugabe is handing out food to HIS political supporters (and no doubt there's plenty of bribery going on in the process) while letting his opponents starve.

Essentially, the seizure of the predominantly white-owned commercial farms is a thinly-veiled scheme by which Mugabe destroys those segments of the native population that oppose his political rule, and he's accomplishing it by hardly firing a shot. Stalin would be proud of him, as would Pol Pot, Hitler, Mao, and every other murdering tyrant who ever lived.

Colonialism is the excuse for Africa's problems; power-hungry tyrants like Mugabe are the underlying cause of them.

Why doesn't that pansy Blair get off his ass and ship a few thousand rifles, hand grenades, ammo, etc., (along with a few SAS "advisors") to the poor starving b*stards, so they will at least have a fighting chance against this monster who would starve them to death maintain his iron rule?

You need to read "LIFE AT THE BOTTOM" by Theodore Dalrymple. Yes, the UK IS the forward staging base for the Third World- why bother to deny it?

Watch sloth and heathen folly, bring all your works to naught"

Good old Kipling knew his stuff.

Until Reagan sent Jeanne Kirkpatrick to the UN, we put up with this kind of Mau-Mauing for years.

Welcome to the real world, Tony--see what happens when you try to act like a responsible leader with a bunch of drooling idiots and corrupt psychopaths?

And how sad that poor poor once great Britain has been reduced, most certainly in the short to mid term, by the waves of hostile, hatefilled, rage driven, assimilable turd-wurld migrants encouraged there by such moronic cowards as Blair and every one of his post-1945 predecessors, to nothing much more than a third world forward staging camp and launching pad for the loathesome and fearsome third world assault the dullard British and other EUropeans have called in upon themselves!

And how much different are we? Eight years of Clinton? Who voted him in?

Flight training the Muslims IN THIS COUNTRY that hijacked American planes and flew them into American buildings? How many mosques are in your local area and what are they preaching?

We are just as infected.

You do have to hope that this "enlightens" Blair. Zimbabwe is going to starve and the guilty parties (usual suspects) are already being lined up.

Gee, all of this love from the Pagan Earth Worshippers (sorry----"Sustainable Development"----sounds like "Total Quality Management" to me).

Britain premits more African and 3rd world immigrants to jump its borders than any other European nation. Immigrants choose the U.K. as first on their "wish list" because it has the most generous housing, medical, and cash benefits.

Actually that's not true. Germany is on the top of the wish list.

<< We are just as infected. >>

But We; The People who comprise Our Beloved FRaternal Republic; are still, thanks to the immense wisdom of Our Nation's Founding FATHERS, still armed -- and when it comes Right down to it will come out shooting.

Half of our population [And effectively all of EUrope's!] will perish, ["china" will see to that] it is true -- but the survivors will be FRee American Men with balls -- and their women -- and Our Judeo-Christian-Western ["Human," that is] Civilization will be Good for another 2,000 years!

"Great" britain?

Only thing "great" in this context is that it surely sounds as if you have a great deal of [Modern historical]catching up to do!
