    It is stunning how so quickly this country went into ruins. The irony is that the institutional kleptocracy, widespread corruption, and utter lack of governance coupled with incredible incompetence hurt the most vulnerable people of the country majority rule was supposed to help.

    Glad everything worked out so well for Zimbabwe. Quite the economic and technological superpower these days, go google it

    Whatever good intentions Mugabe might have had at the beginning of his rule in Zimbabwe (and trying to be fair - which isn't easy - he did have some good things going on in the beginning, but those quickly faded), in the end he let everyone down - he let them down bad.

    Another prime example how when an pillar or power and responsibility that is typically learned or earned over time is given to someone that has NOT earned or learned the importance of that pillar... it goes to shit in a short period of time. That pillar of power and responsibility includes power and money. South Africa is another fine example. No, I won't claim either Rhodesia or South Africa were beacons of equality or justice, but it is obvious who brought prosperity and then who let it die.

    If those Rhodesian pilots knew what Mugabe would bring, especially to his own people, they would have thrown him over the side of that chopper without a doubt.

    I remember crossing from poor Botswana to Rhodesia to get quality education, and we bought Vinyl records, record players, a Supersonic Radio Receiver and some Exotic food we didn't have in Botswana, this Mugabe failed miserably and mnangagwa will be the worst
