[obamabinladenbush]

The Swedish government is the biggest criminal state in our world. Wake up and see the truth about the criminal Swedish government. See LUNDIN OIL and BOFORS SAAB DYNAMICS.

"Colonial Britain has no rights in Zimbabwe ,trying to instal puppets so they can rule by proxie" are you on Webster Shamu payroll?

Please have a heart for the generation lost because of this kind of racist nonsense, if you care for Africa and Africans tell the truth. Mugabe and Zanu PF Cronies have ruined their country by themselves for themselves.

[Kryptonian250]

That's the problem with those African dictators, they blame others for their troubles but not themselves.

[jagib2]

Zimbabwe's problem is not Mugabe. it is to stop developement of an African Zimbabwe, not under British and United States control.

 former emperialist powers of the Western Global Gang do not want there to be a successful independant Black owned & run Zimbabwe.

[vogelaap]

mugabe and his party brought democracy to the people of zim.They fought the british for their right.Britain should stop pretending like they care about zimbabweans.Britain wants to use the people for their intrest

[grannyvonng]

To a large extent whites are to be blamed for the situation in Africa. White, selfish,racist hatred and their domineering attitudes wherever they exist. You know, "white" is right. Being born white is my mealticket to life." It doesn't work like that. That's not the way God ordained it.

Black poeople rise up. Quit the tribal warfare; you're destroying and diminishing yourselves. You're being used as the very tool to bring about your own demise! Have love and consideration for your fellowman.

[osagyefoghana]

fulk you Gordon Brown.You don't give a fulk about zimbabweans.You wants UK to exploit zim resource but mugabe has stopped you so you him eliminated

[grannyvonng]

The question is "why are you comfortably holed up in Britain and not in Africa seeking the interest and betterment of your people? You sit there in your english high tower spouting a host of useless verbiage. It's a case of I, myself and me - the black man 's downfall.

[TheMambavenom]

The Mdc is supported, and finaced by Crackers in westminster.

The issue they want a pliable Uncle Tom figure they can manipulate in Zimbabwe.

Colonial Britain has no rights in Zimbabwe ,trying to instal puppets so they can rule by proxie.

[crossbow121]

No worthwhile comment , since AlJazeeraEnglish will delete any valid statements which carry weight on their issues.

[osagyefoghana]

Britain,US and the EU are the cause of zim problems.They've made zimbabwe's economy screamed to get rid of mugabe.They revenging against mugabe rejecting white supremacy

[osagyefoghana]

Zimbabwe has been sabotaged to blame it on mugabe.Only fools don't know this

[bapfontein]

LA RAOUCHE NEWS video , factual and informative , it explains in detail , how British and USA Impearlist imposed SANCTIONS, has brought Zimbabweas economy to ruin, as a punishment for President Mugabes LAND REFORM and other Nationalist polices of Black empowerment. Their aim to manufacture regime change and the bringing to power of the IMPERALIST FRONT MDC party, led by arch African Tratior Morgan Tsvangrai. -video title. Zimbabwe "The British must be brought to account for Genocide.

[magodies]

we hate this shiri

[tigerone1970]

And what is it with the propagandistic scroll, when George Shire is talking?

And why is he sandwitched between the Selous Scout torturer Roy Bennett, and a shill for the MDC?

[zimstyle]

In 2005, US Senate hearing on Z imbabwe, A ssistant Secretary of State for African Affairs Chester Crocker said this''To separate the Zimbabwean pple from ZANU-PF, we are going to make their economy scream(Remember Salvador Allende in Chile)and i hope you Senators have the stomach for what you have to do''. any economy subjected to such conditions would obviously spiral into super-inflation,chaos& untold human suffering. its not internal mismanagement but external sabotage. We are NOT BLIND...

[chigudo]

All these Mugabe apologists always use the now tired excuse of ''standing up to the west'',revolution bullshit,House negroe,fighting against the colonialist blah blah.

You morons see such please in killing anyone who disagrees with you or anyone who has a free mind to decide for themselves.

You only want people to be like parrots.

Well you are wrong motherfuckers.

Your man Mugabe is going to Burn in Hell together with his heroe Hitler.

[kotxvx]

Please read this article by Highly respected UK journalist:

monbiot . com/archives/2000/04/20/we-sha­re-the-blame-for-zimbabwe/

It explains WHY ZIMBABWE and NOT DARFUR, SOMALIA, or a host of other places with no democracy and much worse than Zimbabwe.

[kotxvx]

Shire inadvertently touches on a crucial point here that Bennett misses because he doesnt live in UK; what precedent is set for legal actions against British land theft and subjugation all over Africa? What would the claims bill amount to?

Why do you think US have never apologised for slavery for 300 yrs? This is not just a cosy armchair debate; Zimbabwe is on the tip of the iceberg of what could amount to Billions, if not Trillions of dollars in awarded damages. VERY SERIOUS INDEED FOR UK GOVT

[kotxvx]

If someone uses the word colonialism in a discussion with white people, the conversion abruptly stops; the party ends, the person is labelled a dictator, apologist, violent, oppressive, brutal, cabal, henchmen.

This is becoming more about just how uncomfortable and ill equipped British people are in discussing and dealing with the devastatingly racist nature of aspects of their history(30000 africans were machine gunned in the bush by rhodesian forces)

[cbellison]

Even talking about these "elections" as if they are actually elections is ridiculous. Mugabe is a dictator with no respect for liberty.

[ifycammi]

hahahaha,that my fellow black guy is just sitting in the luxury of london talking bullshit,let him go back to zimbabwe and lets see if he can stay there for a nite.its only in africa that people see white and say its black.mugabe and his butt lickers are using past days of colonialism as an excuse to remain in power,.mugabe has chosen the way of dictators like samuel doe of liberia,mobutu seseseku of congo,idi amin of uganda,sani abacha of nigeria,this are men who ruin their own country

[kkinsane]

So far I understand this, you have one person to vote for, if you vote for his old opposition or do not vote they will hunt you down and kill you. The international community has refused to acknowledge him as president and are all either preparing or doing nothing so yea, vote and don't die sounds good if you are reading this over there

[JohnnyRock2000]

Mugabe is treating his people inhumanely?

No Democracy or Freedom there??

Better watch out Zimbabwe, George Bush wages war for such things.

---Oh Oh---

No oil there??

Not a danger to Israel??

Fuck you then...

You're on your own.

[roundnround1]

Actually zimbabwe has plenty of valuable resources and may have oil too.

It could be that the large amount of western coverage on zimbabwe now has more to do with the resources than sincere humanitarian concern.

[HeshimaJameni]

But there are white farmers who claim the rich farmlands of Zimbabwe. So Bush might just act on their behalf....

[JohnnyRock2000]

Heshima - No, I don't think so, as the white farmers aren't Zionist and the U.S. would not gain much.

[lemigod]

That Jorberg based analised is so fucking retarded in his defending of Mbeki's handling.

No one asked South Africa to send in any troops or Violence.

People simply asked for ''Verbal condemnation'' of Hate,Violence and fear mongering.

Obviously this pro-Mbeki idiot likes to divert the true issues and make out as if people are asking for Military action.

People simply asked for Verbal Diplomacy and not uselss quite diplomacy for fucking dumbass MBEKI.

[lemigod]

This moron needs to go back to Zimbabwe and starve to death.

The main thing is not about Britain,It is about the wishes of the Zimbabwean people.

[xxashyy]

Im not a fan of Mugabe and i hope the african people or person get rid of him one way or another. The sooner the better. Its rank hypocrisy though when i hear any so called offical from the west ie US and Britain lecture anybody about anything concerning human rights after they're bloody adventures in Iraq and Afghanistan and also maybe IRAN coming to a theatre near you! These lying traitors in Britain and America one day will pay for this hypocrisy and lecturing.

[EsotericDesi]

I like how the White guy put the black ZANU-PF guy in the spot: You're living off luxury of London and then spreading hate against it..! If you give a sh!t about Zimbabwe so much then go to Mugabe's city and report from there..! That black guy's a puppet of Mugabe living in London, gobbling free burgers, sitting in AC room and "reporting" on the plight of Zimbabweans.

[EsotericDesi]

Great coverage..!

[rochillz]

And lastly, they hate to see Zimbabwe as an Example to the whole of Africa. Remember Britain has killed more Africans on this planet.Remember the 14 year war to end colonial oppression by Britain???? And those are the issues at core the these lying bastards don't talk about.

[rochillz]

Rubbish as usual! Surprised, No one talked about the * 4000 white British stock in Zimbabwe that have to give the land back.

*58 million pounds that Britain refused to pay to resettle the 4000 British farmers.

* The Lancaster Agreement

* The Minerals, core issue (Platinum, Gold, Diamonds, copper, Aluminum and many more that the west want for FREE. Those are the issues, and that is why they are attacking Mugabe

[zimbozintrouble]

mugabe is a man who is not gay!!! he isnt a gay president

[zimbozintrouble]

mheche ya mai

[H2JKAY]

In Africa we are not afraid of terrorism we are afraid of Western countries.

[aped]

It's ironic the black guy criticizes Britian and defends Mugabe but he lives in the safety of Britian. Hypocrite?

[linuxluver]

Is any foreigner living in the US who thinks Bush and his cronies are criminals a hypocrites? Being on the country for one reason may have nothing whatever to do with your opinion of the actions of the the leadership of that country.

[arkuis]

What does that have to do with aped's point that George Shire is Mugabe appologist and hypocrit? I agree with aped in that he is a hypocrit and an appologist. I wouldn't be supprised if he was recieving a cheque in the mail every month from Zanu-PF (Mugabe's party).

[linuxluver]

Maybe he is, but that wasn't the point I was responding to. Location has nothing to do with the validity of any specific criticism.

[H2JKAY]

Please read your history well, Britain has committed more atrocities in Zibambwe than Mugabe. Leave Zibambwe alone and care more about stabbing, you national football team and congestion charge.
