Lets Quash this White people are entitled to African soil saga!!

Why do Europeans always have to impose their shit on Everyone? The day the Black man owns land in every European country with out paying for it, then I will also agree to them owning land in Africa.

Ok, then the problem is in different understanding of a 'common sense'. To me doing a harder work but preserving a soil for future is a common sense. To me doing the opposite unknowingly is ignorance, do it in knowingly is laziness.

That doesn't sound like laziness to me brother. Sounds more like common sense.

As for being lazy, of course there are different people in every nation, but if you believe in a 'national character', then hardworking was not a typical virtue of blacks. One example: on uneven grounds blacks often ploughed their land downhill because it is easier than across the hill. They knew less rain water would stay and the streams would wash down fertile soil, damaging roots. But they kept practicing it for ages. And it did not stop them from blaming whites for having most fertile land.

After reading your comment I bet you have never lived in Africa. You are probably a "human lover" kind so frequent in the West (no offence). Not that I lived in Africa either, but at least I studied the subject pretty thoroughly. Believe me on this: the longer white people lived in Africa the less they were of egalitarian kind and more they were of racist kind. Boers, who lived there for hundreds of years, ended up being most racist of all. Isnt there something in it you think?

[jimmyjammyhendrix]

Thats heartless.

How can they be lazy?

Zimbabweans who shovel all day every day in hopes for gold so they can use it to buy a slice of bread.

Are you serious?

How are they supposed to work if there are no jobs.

Their whole life they spend their time fighting to keep it.

I think you should do a little more research and think before you speak.

all governments around the world deserve to be overthrown. But then you are left with a very complex ordeal, if you overthrow a government to put people in that actually care about the people then aren't those new people who are put in charge going to in turn become corrupt over time and you are back to the same thing. This is a never ending problem that you simply can't solve. If you look at Karl Marx's idea of the proletariat overthrowing the beaurgoise than it is a neverending problem.

[mugabezuwane]

Tsvangirai would be no different from mugabe. There would still be chaos in zimbabwe for the simple fact that those people in government no matter where they are do not give a shit about the people. No matter where you go, the government is going to do as it pleases and is going to make as much money as it pleases. Sure some governments will tell you that your vote matters and that they are working their best for your interests, not true. every government is in it for themselves. period.
