Farce in Zimbabwe


It is on-going. Now, the usual suspects launched a biological weapon on the unsuspecting people of Zimbabwe. Haven’t you heard? The wmd that caused Iraq to be invaded were found. Britain did it, and spirited them away, to the US’s utter shame.


Now, they have done a test run, in poor, post colonial Zimbabwe.


Cholera as a biological weapon…


No, these are not my words. They are from a minister of the Government of Zimbabwe, the minister for (dis)-Information.


Zimbabwe blames cholera on Britain


Nearly 17,000 cases of cholera have been reported across Zimbabwe [AFP]


Zimbabwe's information minister has blamed the British government for a cholera outbreak which has killed almost 800 people, claiming his country has been a victim of a "biological" attack.


Sikhanyiso Ndlovu made the accusation on Friday, a day after Robert Mugabe, the president, said his government had brought the epidemic under control.


"I would like to affirm with factual information on how cholera was brought to Zimbabwe," Ndlovu said.


"This is a serious biological-chemical weapon; a genocidal onslaught on the people of Zimbabwe by the British [who are] still fighting to recolonise Zimbabwe and using their allies."


Ndlovu said his government needed more foreign aid to help arrest the raging epidemic.


Utterly shameless! And fascinating… Do the people of Zimbabwe believe this official truth? Its very funny. They just might be.


Poor Zim.

Pissed


Uh, that is what I am.


Totally unrelated to this, but, seems as if human being everywhere have this capacity to act stupid. Very stupid!


My American friends are dealing with the Auction for the Obama senate seat. Seems all things with the Obama monica are selling like hotcake in this depressed world of ours. Closer at home, errrr, the sewage of politics is bubbling with the usual ferocity.


I don’t claim to be very clever, but mate, human beings are stupid! I mean, as a race we have this outstanding ability to realy deceive ourselves. And the way we convince each other of how good we are, our ability to self deceive is realy phenomenal!


Zimbabwe, my, oh my….


Mugabe is with good reason termed Mu-garbage. My mind cringes when I think of what he has done to that once beautiful country. Once upon a time, we thought of him as a sterling example to redeem African pride. He has really drugged us through the sewage. But no more so than this.

Remember the cholera epidemic that has been raging in that Southern African country? Well, the president of the country has declared the epidemic over. For political reasons!!!!


Zimbabwe cholera is over - Mugabe

Breaking News



Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe has said his government has stopped a cholera outbreak that has killed nearly 800 people in the crisis-hit country.


"I am happy we are being assisted by others and we have arrested cholera," Mr Mugabe said in a speech, despite UN reports of a growing death toll.


He also claimed Western powers were plotting to use cholera as an excuse to invade Zimbabwe and topple him.


"The cholera cause doesn't exist any more," Mr Mugabe said.


Talk of playing Ostrich. By the way, that much maligned bird supposedly does not go into that stupid behaviour. Hiding its head in the sand. Apparently only humans are stupid enough to do it!!


Ha ha ha; right, I am fine.
