Strike back at Mugabe

Strike back at Mugabe
Hundreds of thousands of Zimbabwean people have been evicted from their homes by Mugabe’s police and then those houses bulldozed and some children inside crushed to death.

Not only that but other African governments shamefully refuse to condemn this outrage, (BBC: Africa rejects action on Zimbabwe) the latest in a series of attacks on the freedoms of the people of Zimbabwe.

Well if we are really going to make poverty history in Africa then we need to make rotten dictators like Mugabe history too.

It is time to defend the people by striking back at this dictator.

Mugabe did not heed the warning message of suspension from the Commonwealth. So be it.

There is only one language that fascist dictators like Mugabe understand - the language of military force.

Britain and America should give heart to the defenceless people of Zimbabwe and rally the opposition to Mugabe by leading limited military strikes against Mugabe.

This could take the form of missile strikes against Mugabe’s palaces, hopefully catching him at home. Let’s see if Mugabe is killed when his house is knocked down. If he survives that then we could follow up with more comprehensive air strikes if necessary.

Hopefully if we strike back at Mugabe then that will give heart to the African people to fight back against this ruthless dictator.

Well of course it would be nice to get prior Commonwealth and UN backing for such strikes. However, we have seen with ousting Saddam that it is necessary for leading nations to act anyway and pick up the legal pieces afterwards.

Oh and we should not be welcoming complicit African heads of state, like Thabo Mbeki, the South African “president”, to G8 in Scotland either.

Friends of Mugabe, like Mbeki, should not be welcomed by those who wish to make poverty history.

We should thank Kate Hoey MP for speaking out so bravely on the Zimbabwean crisis. BBC: Blair pressed on Zimbabwe stance

Of course, the UK royalist, fascist police state should stop the deportations of Zimbabwean asylum seekers. (BBC: UK Zimbabweans on hunger strike)
