The sickness:

The cholera outbreak in Zimbabwe which has left hundreds dead was caused by the UK, an ally of Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe has said.

Information Minister Sikhanyiso Ndlovu described the outbreak as a “genocidal onslaught on the people of Zimbabwe by the British”.

Charles Mudede—who writes about film, books, music, and his life in Rhodesia, Zimbabwe, the USA, and the UK for The Stranger—was born near a steel plant in Kwe Kwe, Zimbabwe. He has no memory...

  1. Charles,
    Indeed, the sickness isn’t cholera, it is Mugabe. The horror of HIV infection (last time I checked 1 out of 5 Zimbabweans are infected with HIV, the looming starvation (it no longer exports grain and is chronically short on basic food), the plague of cholera and the delusion that somehow the British are to blame ranks Zimbabwe as one of a few unequivocal hells on earth. I favor removal by any means necessary and should he survive the means, he to be tried as a criminal against humanity. 28 years in power is enough.

  2. Do we really have to keep calling this guy President? I mean he stole the election, and had his opponent exiled from the country. He’s a dictator now and everybody knows it, yet all the news reports keep referring to him as “President Robert Mugabe”. Pisses me off.

  3. he is human scum

    one dire fact – all the facts speak to his evil

    he needs to be shot in the head as soon as possible by anyone interested – KGB – CIA – anyone, anyone

    total evil scum – why do the power nations let him live?

  4. Sadly, it is Mugabe himself who is the toxic backwash of colonialism– he along with other once revolutionary black nationalists who appropriated authoritarian colonial governance systems for their own corrupt ends.

  5. Actually, what else can one expect him who has shown such a strong will to cling to power to say about the cholera outbreak?

    Not being able to cure the outbreak and not willing to let it spark the ire of his people against him, he simply blames the British.

    It’s shocking, but not surprising.

  6. By the way, on a non-political note, I would like to observe how good Mr. Mugabe looks for his age.

    Would that I were that sinewy and robust when I am in my eighties.
