    Daisy farming in Zimbabwe

    The sooner this clown buys the farm the better, rather than taking more from those who know how to run them.

    Why doesn't someone just put a bullet in his head and be done with him?
    The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is.

    He'd be a martyr to certain factions.
    Also, it was apparently considered by a number of different entities at different times, and ruled out because it was thought the syphilis would have done for him before now.

    Its his 85th birthday, so perhaps not much longer to endure him. Tsvangirai seems to be considering this too as a "bide your time" strategy.

    Unfortunately Tsvangirai ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer, if you gave him a penny for his thoughts, you'd get change.

    Perhaps, but IMO showing some nouse in maintaining a low profile and influencing others because he is there. Probably not the one to get them out of the sh!t they're in but a start - and if he demonstrates the art of the possible who knows who else is in the wings to step up in his stead.

    The minute Mugabe's gone and Zanu splits into factions, Zim ex-pats will start heading home and investment from SA, Britain and elsewhere will commence again.
    Morgan will have help.

    I'm reading Ian Smiths biography at the moment. Very interesting insights into the whole Rhodesian affair and beyond. Interestingly he pin points the 1946 defeat of Smuts United Party as the turning point in African politics. For the worse of course. And judging by what happened later, I'd have to agree.
