Mugabe? For God's sake. Let's resurrect Pol Pot and send him in to sort out the Middle East while we're at it...
The AU has become a bad joke.
Truly the mind boggles.
What natural resources are there in Ivory Coast for Mugabe to steal?
Perhaps he'll use it as an opportunity prepare to flee there when the Zimbabwe people rise up like those of Egypt and Tunisia to toss him out.
You know, you said that half in jest, Steve but it might well be.
James, perhaps less than half in jesty. Last month was the 40th anniversary of Idi Amin's takeover in Uganda. But Mugabe followed Hitler's adage: first take power, THEN the revolution.
