What a disaster, how did Mugabe get to this place in time, surely some one saw it coming. I still have friends in Zimbabwe friends who were once fairly prosperous business people employing perhaps a 100/200 workers all gone. farmers that went into Zimbabwe after the Rhodesia name change to grow fruit and coffee all gone. Farmers who gave up part of their holdings to help Mugabe with his land reform all gone. Hopefully the suffering will not last much longer, Mugabe is old and if there is a Devil he will take him shortly, how much that will help because the regime will still be there I don't know. You are not getting any help from outside the only people who will make the change are you.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1317','Alan'); return false;">Reply to this comment</a> --- <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('1317','Alan','I spent my childhood years in what was then Rhodesia, 1958 through to 1964 what a wonderful place to grow up, people were happy, there was hardly anyone without, food was plentiful along with Jobs, happy smiling faces where ever you went no violance.

Hopefully the suffering will not last much longer, Mugabe is old and if there is a Devil he will take him shortly, how much that will help because the regime will still be there I don’t know. You are not getting any help from outside the only people who will make the change are you.

But you raise a fair point ... we should think about changing that in case people think it's a specific form of activism.
