Children with guns

Perhaps Robert Mugabe is a great old man, but has been going senile steadily for a long time. Like so many other old people, he reverted back to his childhood as a freedom fighter. In his mind he really believes that Great Britain is the enemy. He may come over as an honest man with great integrity, which he is, except for the senility, which makes him relive the past.

It is also possible that children with guns, are running Zimbabwe.

That may account for the discrepancies of what happens in Zimbabwe, and what Mr. Mugabe reveals to the international community.

Is Mr. Mugabe the mascot and a front for the child army and their terror campaign?

Just think about it, it is possible.

No election in Zimbabwe can be fair after the torturing and killing many of the opposition.

Many of people not cast their votes in the next election in fear of retaliation.

War a Global Cancer

3-08-2008

2008 THE YEAR THAT STARTED A WAR THAT WIPED OUT THE WORLD, AS WE KNOW IT?

Could 2008 be the year when the world looked on how one madman destroyed a beautiful country and did nothing – or not enough - to put an end to it?

One can think of Robert Mugabe as a cancer cell (in a body) attacking a beautiful healthy organ.

Robert Mugabe happens to be one of the African Brotherhood that fought oppression. This cancer could easily spread to nearby organs if it is not surgically removed before doing so.

This cancer may also infiltrate the far-off nodes, of the lymphatic system, in the body if not removed.

We know that China is supplying arms to Zimbabwe.

Soon the whole body (world) will be in a fight for survival once the nodes carry the cancer to other organs.

We know on which side China will be during a world war, after all she is supplying Zimbabwe with arms. Who will Japan support?

Has Hiroshima been forgotten and forgiven?

The best and only treatment for cancer is surgery at an early stage.
