Why not? All the Zimbabweans are here already, at least we'll have somewhere to send them when we're done.

That would be imperialism.......
I read a book many decades ago.
the key point for me was the astronaut who was from the USSA. (United States of Southern Africa)
Yes I can dream.
Can you imagine, the educated workforce from Zim, the governance from Bots, the oil from Angola, the economy of SA, the dunes & farms from Nam, the beaches & farming from Moz...
That would be great, pity about megalomaniacs

Thus far something like 2k people of Zim has died of cholera since outbreak.
I don't think it would work because often when things like this happens the original citizens of the dissolved country seem like they get 2nd class citizen status.
2ndly it can only happen if the people in zim vote for it, else you will have a revolt and 'terrorism'/freedom fighters opposing due to above reason and lack of choice offered to them. Even if a majority want it there is bound to be some revolt still altho a minority.
Hrm.. wasn't zim + namibia + mozambique asked if they want to join in 94? -curious-
Edit.. 2,106 people killed in Zim by cholera acc. to UN

China should just buy Zimbabwe. They don't care about human rights and they'll have the timber, iron and tobacco out of there in no time... Then we can buy those same products back from China at increased costs.
Even though that doesn't sound like it makes sense... it's already probably happening.

Whats to stop a newer mugabe 2.0 from the same party who is younger and likely to rule for another 20-50 yrs?
Fear of someone sending a sniper for him?
Nah, they won't take me
Why not? Too pale. How hard can it be to turn a plane into a lawn dart

That and too old I reckon.
But if they really, really wanted someone to fly the A400M (non Kamikaze style), I'd be glad to go back to the air force.
First one has rolled off the assembly line.

Usually they just up their security.. Saddam Hussein springs to mind and how he pretty much learned(from the US) how to prevent assassinations.
