It is a tragic and unnecessary fate that's befallen Zimbabwe. On the one hand I despair and hope for internal change, on the other I hope other countries will force decisive action.

I believe our country is a shame country, country that does not care about thier brothers and sisters who brutally murdered by mugabe's what we call soldiers of the country. we must remember that one of the past days we were running out of country to look for safety places and we did come back to fight for our so called shame country. it is a shame to live in the country whereby people do not care for another. GOD BLESS AFRICA. Zimbabwe will find their way out of missery and I pray for the kids of that country who do not even know thier parents. President Mugabe need to grow and may God help him.

That’s probably the easiest way to get rid of Mugabe but his replacement under that scenario would be part of the same undemocratic system. You’d probably swap an old corrupt tyrant for a younger one.

There definitely needs to be more international pressure. Sanctions would hurt the common people but they’re suffering hugely already.

An ABC news story last night (?) suggested that a popular uprising led from within Mugabe’s own government was the most likely way out of this situation; and implied that this was already a-brewin’.

One can only laugh at Tony Blair’s latest comments along the lines of:

“It’s really terrible. I feel quite bad for those poor people. Hmm…. next question?”

Great work Tony, that’ll teach him

Britain will never do it – no oil .. There have been protest marches in London already and the BBC aren`t even allowed in the country to report on what is happening there (they hurt poor MR Mugabes feelings or something). Blair will stutter and waffle as usual while civil rights are ignored and people detained and killed – but thats ok because we are giving immigrants mobile phones and sending them text messages to let them know when their visa`s run out – so we have our priorities straight!!

Ray’s attempt at humor shouldn’t detract from the ongoing issue of serious human rights abuses in Zimbabwe. It’s hard to see a light side to what’s going on there.

In the latest incident Opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai has been injured along with many other critics of the corrupt regime.

The tragedy is that Zimbabwe was once, and should be, a prosperous stable nation.

I sort of agree, but long term what’s the point? We’re talking about a very unstable part of the world. On the other hand I believe a very plausible case could be mounted for Australia to invade (and permanently annexe) New Zealand. Think of the benefits, for both countries. And who would stop us? Who would really care?

If Zimbabwe had the tiniest bit of oil, Britain would have to get in line behind us to do any invading. It doesn’t matter what former claims they might have had in the region.
