Too late now. The neighbours are smiling having real farmers to produce food successfully and asked to get more white farmers so the program can be expanded. Sad Sack Zim lost out! Watch out South Africa, The same will happen here!

some pretty intelligent words coming from leaders in Zimbabwe. There might be future hope.

One cannot believe anything that comes out of Zimbabwe.
I have read these sort of reports only to read a contradictory one a couple of days later.
Who is in charge of Zimbabwe?
For this man to actually say this means that he is going against Mugabe's wishes.

We all know the land grabs were political. What is this person trying to say?
That they made a few mistakes. 4500 mistakes!
Load of nonsense I think.
Obviously not enough money in the kitty to pay all the hangers on any more.
The cracks are very evident in Mugabe's Government.
The Government is bankrupt. I think that is more the truth of the matter.
No money to pay the public servants?
Let's see how loyal Mugabe's army is when they don't get their pay cheques.

What always confused me about the whole land issue and this is also applicable to South Africa.
When they refer to "Landless Blacks" and then put word "Farms" in the same sentence.
This makes no sense. Landless people can be defined in many ways.
Are all landless people looking to farm? I think not.
"What they are doing is to go into the houses where whites were living and they want land, they just plough a small hectarage, and they are saying that's enough," he said.

"We have taken this land, and (are) using it for political gains other than the development of the agricultural industry."
And this is the crux of the recent revelation of the 2IC to Mugabe in Zimbabwe.
Who wants to farm? Farming is hard work. You need to have it in your blood.
Simply putting a few people on a farm and telling them to farm is a recipe for disaster.

He said the programme, which has so far seen the seizure of more than 4 000 white-owned farms, was meant to take back farms stolen by whites during colonial rule
Really?
I will take that with a very large pinch of salt, thank you. :rolleyes:

And before this land was stolen, what was it doing?
Nothing.
Now that the land is perceived to be productive, now it was stolen?
The 10th Commandment States, Thou shalt not covet.
I think this is very true in life and one of the Commandments that makes perfect sense to me.

I see what will happen in 5 - 10 years time, if not sooner: Once Zimbabwe goes absolutely bankrupt, without enough money to pay it's own army and politicians, Mugabe or whoever else is in rule will desperately try and get as much scraps as possible and flee. Then the acting government will say sorry, we didn't realize giving our economical hub (farms) to illiterate and uneducated homeless blacks (re: government politicians) would cripple the country. Britian, USA and South Africa should of done something, but since they are controlled by communist whites, we see why they didn't. Anyway, selfish whites, pls come back and make the country rich again, we promise we'll only torture and harass you from 9-5 on Saturdays and public holidays.

Thought that already happened :D

But the mdc leader Morgan cant spell his surname seem to care about whats happening to the country but all politicians do untill they are elected :p
 
lol exactly. Don't be fooled tho, the country isn't absolutely bankrupt just yet, but they getting there...

Just a matter of how long Mugabe lives, which is directly proportianate to how long the SNO takes to sell its first ADSL package - so, uh, Mugabe's gonna be kicking it for quite some time..
 
Maybe we can *speed* things up a little, if u know wot i mean... I'll fly in Lonegunman from the states and we can have a little who-ha in Harare..
