Every single day, we see bedraggled Zimbabweans on the roads in a desperate attempt to make an honest living. Many of them have families at home whose soul income and, dare I say it, hope, lies here in South Africa. Small problem - how many Zimbabweans can South Africa carry?
In the same way that Adolf Hitler mesmerized the throngs with his almost catatonic displays, Mugabe has hypnotized his people with fear.
Presumably it is well known the world over, that a loaf of bread in Zimbabwe costs a few thousand dollars, that there is no petrol even to be sniffed and that he has forced shop-owners to cut their prices by 50%. Sometimes more. The views South Africans have of the state on television news broadcasts, shows massive department stores with 3 packets of sugar and one or two sacks of flour on their shelves. They can't afford new stock because they ran at a loss. Blow us all away, but he has since demanded further cut downs by retailers. Is there a logic behind this? If there is, I am certainly not seeing it!
Sociologically speaking, he is a real gem, because no one is quite sure how there is still a Zimbabwe at all. Its social structure resembles a few broken lego houses. Everyone knows the medical supplies are sorely depleted, and many people have died while waiting for medication to be transported across the borders. Some people just hope it won't be confiscated at Beit Bridge.
Others have been forced to eat their own pets, in some cases, because the cattle were slaughtered en-masse, by Mugabes rebels, in a self-spiting attack of vengeance. Has anybody heard, Robert Mugabe is not a racist, he is just anti-white. It works all ways.
I don't know, but where Hitler sent millions to the gas chambers, Mugabe is doing a fine job in a very distorted fashion.
It's absolutely amazing how one man can turn a perfectly good and fruitful country into...no country at all. I do not know how the world feels about our Bob, but I am not impressed. If he doesn't come down from his candy castle, his starving people will start eating it from under him.
He has the audacity to announce on National television the he serves one God, and points his menacing old finger to the skies. I'm sorry, sir, but i don't think God has anything to do with it.
Frighteningly enough there are Mugabe supporters in South Africa that applaud his speeches, and ecstatically hang on his every word when he comes to our country (can''t help but feel a little polluted).
This is sad, terribly sad, as he has made his cronies rich and fat, but done nothing for the ''little people''. The people who got him where he is today.
Well, Bob, these two hands are not clapping.

Post a CommentIt's so sad, so horrible, to see the great White Israelite country of Rhodesia become Zimbabwe ruins. May God grant repentance and bless South Africa and Rhodesia to be restored.
