I wonder if Oppenheimer will hire Executive Options/Outcomes or Sandline.

These mercs were going through the RUF in Sierra Leone like a dose of salts until the international community made a deal through Jesse Jackson of the US and Charles Taylor of Liberia to call them off.

When is the Hague court and Carla going to indict and try this Mugabe sub-human on the litany of PC crimes of which he is clearly guilty: racial bigotry, hate crimes, ethnic cleansing, war cimes of all imaginable types, probably cannibalism, etc ??

Mugabe ...says it is immoral for the 4 500 white farmers to occupy 70% of the country's best farm land

Was it the "best farmland" before the whites developed it? (I suspect not.) Is it "moral" to starve one's own country, to satisfy racial-political abstractions or for any other reason? Is it "moral" to persecute the small percentage of whites who trusted the black government enough to stick around as a politically powerless minority after Rhodesia fell? Will we soon see Soviet style explanations for agricultural failure -- "due to the 70th straight year of unusual weather blah blah blah..." (See, I'm not a racist, I can admit that whites can be incompetent too. Da, konyechno!)

A bumper sticker I've seen in California farm country, any white Rhodesian might appreciate:
PUT A FARMER OUT OF BUSINESS -- STARVE!

Your post is in line with my thinking. Mugabe could be eliminated.
