When Marxism causes famine in Africa, Tony Blair calls it a "natural disaster."***He said: "The situation in Zimbabwe is a complex food crisis: a combination of two years of poor rain, a very challenging political and economic environment, compounded by a catastrophic HIV/Aids crisis. Much of the urban and rural population are living off one meal a day. If food doesn't come in, in a very sizeable quantity, that will be going down to no meals at all." Tony Blair pledged British backing for the international effort last night. The Prime Ministersaid: "It is a genuine tragedy this natural disaster has been visited upon the people of southern Africa. The consequences are potentially very serious and we have ordered action at every level we can."***

"When will they ever learn?"
You can't make nice nice with thugs, blackmailers, and murderers! Not on the playground, and not in world politics. Maybe Tony Blair has learned an important lesson.
