#3  I wonder how Zambia is making out? Initially they brought in a good number of white Rhodesian refugees to help them improve their farming and technical capabilities with some positive results. But I never heard any follow-up after the first year or two, and being caught between Mugabeland and South Africa is tricky, to say the least.

#2  I recommend a read of "Bitter Harvest." There are no shocking surprises in any of what has happened in Zimbabwe over the past few decades. None whatsoever.

#1  Its a pity Ian Smith has left our plane. He might have had a thought or two which would not cost too much.

Where are all the apologists who sang the praises of Mugabe when he with fighting the government of Southern Rhodesia? He promised a new world, peace, freedom and change.

MMMmmmm Is that an echo I hear??
