#3 newc, like many other shithole countries, Zimbabwe does not have money for food and other essentials, but they have plenty of money for weapons and ammo. Witness the years long fights that have gone on in places like Somalia, Sudan, and many others.

Hillary Clinton presses for South Africa role in Zimbabwe

By Sebastien Berger in Pretoria
Published: 5:55PM BST 07 Aug 2009

Hillary Clinton, the US secretary of state, asked for further help from South Africa in solving Zimbabwe's political problems, as she promised closer ties between the Washington and Pretoria.

Mrs Clinton acknowledged that Zimbabwe's continuing problems, despite the formation of the unity government, were an issue for its neighbour as she met South African officials on the second stop of her seven-nation African tour.

"South Africa has three million refugees from Zimbabwe and every one of those refugees represents a failure of the Zimbabwean government to care for its own people and a burden that South Africa has to bear," she said.

The United States, troubled by what it sees as an absence of reform in Harare, has no plans either to offer major development aid or to lift sanctions against Robert Mugabe, Zimbabwe's president, and some of his supporters.

Washington wants more evidence of political, social and economic reforms by Mr Mugabe and the government he shares with opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai, Zimbabwe's prime minister.
