Zimbabwe : Mugabe in 'come home' plea to exiles

ZIMBABWEAN President Robert Mugabe has issued an impassioned plea to the
country's exiled professionals not to turn their backs on the country.

In a rambling and incoherent speech during a rally to mark Zimbabwe's 26
years of independence from Britain, the 82-year-old leader urged
Zimbabweans
to stay and "make the country better".

It was Mugabe's first public admission of the negative effects the brain
drain was having on the country's economy.

Mugabe said: "You might go to England, but you will be discriminated
against
there. You will be given menial jobs like looking after old people in
their
homes.

"If you flee then who will make the country better? Is it Mugabe alone?
Did
I fight for the county alone? The answer is no. It was a collective
exercise."

It is thought that there are at least THREE MILLION Zimbabweans living
outside the country, most of whom left after Mugabe's government
launched a
crackdown on opposition activists and disrupted commercial agriculture,
sparking widespread poverty and loss of jobs.

The country's health sector is suffering crippling staff shortages as
nurses
and doctors are leaving in droves heading mainly for the United Kingdom
and
Australia.

Inflation now runs at 913 percent, and is expected to rise further.
Unemployment is estimated at 85 percent and the country is grappling
with
serious food shortages which Mugabe blames on a "spate of devastating
droughts and an evil program of unjustified sanctions" by Western
nations.
The United States and European Union have imposed travel bans and other
targeted sanctions against Mugabe and members of his regime.

Mugabe pleaded: "We should remain united, love each other and help each
other and know that we are all Zimbabweans especially in the face of the
current challenges.

PS:

Inflationen i Zimbabwe er nu på over 900%, og arbejdsløsheden er oppe på
85% af arbejdsstyrken.

Det går sku godt!

Man kan bare ryste på hovedet. Mugabe slår alle rekorder vedr.
galopperende ræs i kasketten. Han havde hørt om at man destruerede nogle
højhuse i London fordi de lynhurtigt blev til slum og viste sig at være
det rene byggesjusk.

Den ide tog Mugabe op og omsatte den til hans eget land, hvor han
begyndte at rive visse boligblokke ned og lade beboerne korporligt smide
ud - altså tvangsfjerne dem og køre dem ud ved en fjern flodbred, hvor
de så kunne ernære sig på stenaldervis.

Hvordan vil han forklare, at dette skulle gavne et land, som både
mangler ingeniører og kvalificerede håndværkere. Og sikkert alt muligt
andet.

Fornuftige afrikanere ved at deres lande har et klima, som gør det
muligt at høste 2 - 3 gange om året og hurtigt kunne gøre landet rigt,
hvis altså at det blev fornuften, der kunne få lov at råde - så de
græmmer sig over at de intet kan komme til at gøre.

Og hvor mange af disse »professionals« er mon hvide, der er jaget ud af
deres hjem?

Mon det også gælder de hvide?

Mon ikke de fleste af dem er hvide?

Ikke desto mindre er Mugabes styre et racistisk styre, der ser på race
når det konfiskerer effektive bønders jord.

Derudover sørger det jo for at modstandere af styret ikke kan få mad.
