The AU or OAU, the name means nothing just as the organization stands for th continued repression of the majority of Africans. Is this a club bent on wasting government resources or discussing methods of corruption? We are grateful to those leaders who have come out and not only voiced their concern but also condemned the Mugabe regime. Botswana you have the entire World behind you. Mugabe is doing more than Ian Smith did to the African in the guise he is fighting for the land.

The opposition is powerless in Zimbabwe, and that is why Mugabe is a bully. Unfortunately he can also bully the AU.

Where is he getting his bread and butter. He must have stocked enought supplies to last him for the rest of his life somewhere in a hole like Saddam. Sunctions wont work! He still goes t restock from his embassies every year. The onus is on the world to assist the woman and babies in Zimbabwe by military intervention followed by peace keeping until order can be restored again. The modern day African Leader has failed taken politics for agrandisement of wealth. If AIDS fail to destroy Africa, corruption by its black leaders will. Wake up Africa. Mugabe should be ashamed to take the orth of office on the Holly Bible. But He knows no shame as the devil. God Bless you and us all. Thank you.

Western countries want Mugabe ousted from power for two reasons. First, Mugabe sent his military to DR Congo in the 1990's to halt the invasion and occupation of DR Congo by the armies of Rwanda, Burundi, and Uganda. The invasion was financially and militarily sponsored by the United States and England with the aim of effecting a regime change in DR Congo so that western countries would exploit (loot) the natural resources of DR Congo at will. Up until the time of invasion, Mugabe's Zimbabwe had been buying jet fighters for its airforce from England, with an agreement that the sellers of those jet fighters would continually supply the jets' spare parts to Zimbabwe if Zimbabwe needed spare parts. Surprisingly, after Zimbabwe's military intervention to DR Congo, England passed a bill that declared illegal any sale of military equipment, including jet fighters' spare parts, to Zimbabwe. In response, Zimbabwe turned to China, from whence it began to buy military equipment.

Second, the redistribution of the land, which had been illegally acquired and owned by white farmers for years, to Black Zimbabweans is, in the western view, a crime that Mugabe should not have made and for which he cannot be forgiven. Hence the USA and UK's endevour to mobilize the entire world, including the UN, the European Union, the African Union, and individiual governments against Mugabe. However, African leaders know the true motives behind this worldwide mobilization by the USA and UK. Accordingly, the African Union's resolution on Zimbabwe is far from being an endorsement of the joint stand of the USA, UK, and their Western allies on Mugabe's Zimbabwe. And as long as Mugabe has the trust and support of the African governments and of the people represented by these governments, Mugabe's Zimbabwe will not hesitate to tell the Western world "to hang and hang a thousand times".

Question What is Mugabe's Zimbabwe denying theAnglo American Axis from having? Howthe West always find and use Unpatriotic Africans against Africa

It is being reported that English and American agents are covertly funding Zimbabweans to repeat the process that they used successfully on Moḥammad Moṣaddeq, Prime Minister of Iran from 1951 to 1953 He was removed from power by a coup d'état. These tactics are: Anglo / USA agents entice week Zimbabweans to act as Mugabie supporters . while carrying out acts of oppression against all known members of the opposition in the form of. Bombing , murders, flog, in the name of the President, and his party British and Americans also used that strategy in , El Salvador and Iraq Their Agents operating in Iraq were killed hundreds of thousand of civilians fermenting sectarian violence Shias against Sunnies by blowing up mosques and killing shias and sunnis with "their death squads" (There are pictures on the web and on numerous Arab and Asian networks clearly show to be CAUCASIANS and BLACKS IN MASKS) This tactics was also successfully used in creating a coup in Iran. Bombing and murders were blamed on the President (Mosaddeq ). The Anglo /USA AXIS won that round and installed the Shah who promptly gave them the key to Irans oil fields

Many countries have gone through this tactic, uncooperative leaders were usually dispatched in one way or another. Here is how it works... US and England comes in, request a form of compliance from the Prey Country, should it refuse to cooperate,The country is squeezed economically by the use of( sanctions and trade restrictions)if that fails, destabilization in the form of phisical atrosities against important people and places,next leaders character assignation follows , then a coup-de-ta, then Assignation, then war preferably by a surrogate nation. If the load is to heavy for the Surrogate, The Anglo Axis will come in to do the Job. The prey Country,s leaders are replaced or killed

. Iraq Iran, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Paraguay, Venezuela, Panama Haiti, Congo et cetera (Read John Perkins, a former respected member of the international banking community. In his book _Confessions of an Economic Hit Man) www.johnperkins.org/ - 10k _

Then there is economic blackmail, another powerful weapon in their arsenal, using the IMF World Bank, Inter-American Development Bank Trade restrictions, the Seizing of National assets. All these tools used in consort to entrap countries in economic servitude The Anglo Saxon Diaspora also uses these tools to whip stubborn mavericks into line.in order to loot their Countries national and human resources

Can Mugabe's Zimbabwe survive the Anglo / American on slaught? Are Asian countries strong enough to come to the aid of the Old African Freedom Fighter Warrior Robert MugabeÂ’ and true patriotic Zimbabwean peoples The West has brutally abused Africa for Decades , now there is a new man in town who has come courting her. Answer

Why is Zimbabwe still afloat? Â…China Why the Anglo American axis is trying to stop Mugabe China

This article By HANY BESADA explains Special to Globe and Mail Update July 2, 2008 at 8:59 PM EDT How has Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe managed to avert a complete state collapse thus far? His disillusioned citizens are facing a new wave of price increases that will put the most basic of food essentials even further out of their reach. On the streets of Harare, a loaf of bread costs the equivalent of what a dozen new cars would have cost a decade ago (when factoring current consumer price indicators and inflation figures). With public wages largely unchanged, as many as three million Zimbabweans have been forced to take up menial jobs in neighbouring South Africa to support their families. Figures released by independent economists in Zimbabwe last week show that the annual inflation rate has reached 9 million per cent. With the worthless Zimbabwean dollar trading at more than one billion to £1, the country's central bank announced the introduction of a billion-dollar banknote. With a sinking economy and hyperinflation that has produced millionaires and billionaires struggling to feed their families, how is it that Zimbabwe is still afloat? One answer may be China. By many accounts, China has become one of Zimbabwe's most important foreign investors, following the exodus of Western multinationals in the mid-1990s as a result of the worsening political and security situation in the wake of the seizure of white-owned farms. Last month, China's ambassador to Zimbabwe said a Chinese company was seriously exploring the possibility of investing $500-million (U.S.) for electricity generation in Zimbabwe. This comes on the heels of discussions between the two countries on expanding bilateral trade and investments. In the past two years, China has thrown Zimbabwe's disintegrating economy a lifeline with energy and mining deals, reportedly worth more than $1.6-billion.

It was reported that these deals gave China access to Zimbabwe's precious mineral resources, including the world's second- largest deposits of platinum, as well as gold, chrome, coal, nickel and diamonds.

These major investment projects included the construction of three coal-fired thermal power stations to assist the state power company, which was cutting customers' electricity for seven hours a day.

It also included a deal with the China Machine-Building International Corp. to mine coal and build thermal-powered generators in Zimbabwe, with the aim of reducing the country's electricity shortage. Indeed, Beijing's economic support for Harare remains strong and, through its efforts, China has secured the contracts to develop Zimbabwe's agricultural, mineral and hydroelectric resources. Tobacco counts amongst Zimbabwe's top exports, and China is Zimbabwe's largest importer. China has made large investments in the country's tobacco production and processing industry, and also has injected more than $200-million into Zimbabwe's farming, manufacturing and mining sectors. China supplies Zimbabwe with expertise, technical assistance and agricultural equipment. Chinese investors also helped Zimbabwe process tobacco into cigarettes and export them as finished products. And investors and a local company undertook a joint venture in the form of a large cement factory in Gweru to meet the national demand for cement. Western analysts and Zimbabwean critics contend that Beijing will continue to support Harare unconditionally, while piling up various claims on Zimbabwe's natural resources and other commodities. With a lack of direct competition by Western firms in the local market, Zimbabwe will remain one of China's important resource bases. But Zimbabwe's fragile state is putting Beijing in an increasingly vulnerable situation, as Western condemnation of China's long-standing ties with the autocratic Mr. Mugabe is becoming increasingly more vocal. China's continued involvement in Zimbabwe, particularly in the agricultural and mining sectors, also carries significant sovereign risk – and Beijing is gambling it will be able to manage relations so as to guarantee its claims in what would almost certainly continue to be a chaotic transition period. Zimbabwe's socio-economic profile has undergone a seismic change. The growing importance of China in the country's economy is evidenced by economic assistance and foreign investment deals in the extractive sector, in state-owned enterprises and in the agricultural sector. The key to this is China's willingness to use barter trade to secure investment deals, and it appears as though China's motives are actually economic – namely, to satisfy its growing economic needs. A constructive engagement with China will have to be put in place, focusing on improving transparency in contracts, investment deals and loan agreements. This will be particularly critical in any post-Mugabe economic reconstruction period if ordinary Zimbabweans are to reap the full benefits of increased Chinese investments instead of only a current handful of political elite in Harare.

Mugabe seems so blatantly evil in his repression of his own people. I perceive that the moderate respose about his actions from African nations is due to caution about further abuse of the people of Zimbabwe by their irrational "leader".

Just two things: for Mugabe to loose legitimacy to Bush and Blair-Brown is a positive development for him, Zimbabwe and Africa. That mean that Mugabe did or said something unpleasant to the Masters=insubordination, witch is good, the second thing is, MDC needs urgently a new leader with clear political vision and credibility to replace the moron Client of the Dutch Embassy.

easy to condemn tsvangirai while sitting in front of your computer , i am sure you have risked a lot for other people , your inferiority complex can be seen because you call the west "masters".look if all african leaders are so great and not to be condemed then why is africa in such a state .
