Zimbabwe should be grateful this guy didn't come to power. Then Trump would be factually correct in calling us a Sithole country. lol.

Still fluffing it up Robbo.

If Mugabe was white (like Ian Smith) and/or Jewish, the lefties would be screaming for sanctions, boycotts, armed intervention, etc.

Much respect to the Mugabe that freed his country men from the ultimate devils who were in power before. Too bad the freedom fighter turned out the way he did.

Name a Black African country which is not a kleptocracy. I'll wait. And no, I'm not defending any of it. And no, it doesn't mean that apartheid was acceptable either.

Too bad you didn’t die a painful death.
Go join Idi Amin.

Ghana and Botswana. Nigeria to a certain extent but it has massive problems on religious grounds. Senegal is the only Sufi majority country in the world.

Botswana's wealth comes from diamonds and tourism - but climate change is undermining the later. The interior Okavango swamp (the largest oasis in the world) is drying up.

Felt the same way about Reagan and others like him, myself.

He was a cruel dictator, an
evil man and he did his country a lot of harm.
I despised him, but I despised the regime that preceded him even more.

BTW, the stadium where Mugabe funeral was held was only a quarter full. Good riddance seemed to be the message from the general populace.

It was the most attended funeral in history.

The people attending were mainly military and/or cronies that benefited financially or participated from his tyranny.

OK, I'm hiring this guy for a rebuttal. He is good at fake news rebuttals, and is looking for work so I gather.
