Critters2

Have never been in the country myself, but I do know some who have been there... And I know that Zimbabwe was one of the better country in the area we are talking about here.. Many country are using this type of violence to warn critics what will become if they was to start critic the regime.. Beat the hell out of them, and then dump the person on the doorstep.. It is more economical than to just them them disappear all together..

Very sad about your friend the Pastor. I am afraid he might not be alive today, or he might be in some prison somewhere if he is Lucky.. The regime of mr Mugabe have going from decent enough, to really, really bad and the country is more or less in ruin this days...

Zimbabwe have fallen great since the early 1990s, very sad and it Will take the country decades to rebuild up to the level it was before Mugabe decided to play hard with the white farmers... And this type of behavior is something that ALSO have poisoned relationship between white farmers in Mozambique, South Africa and other parts also. Because it is many white farmers, who own large parts of the land who is been farmed.. And it is many black who want a land to farm on their own. But they do not have the knowledge or the economical power to do so. And as everything goes, in this economical world of today, it Will be very easy for many african government to blame the economical problems on the white farmers.. And to use them at scapegoats to please their population.. Even if you just trow the white farmers out, you might not get a decent life all toghter.. Many white farmers in South Africa have been fighting squatters, and even waged more or less war against thief's who want to scare them out of their land.. Even if the land is documented to be their for many year...

And many zimwabwen have also been runing to South Afrika and other country, becouse they belive they can get a more decent life there. And that alone is making many in South Africa less willing to help their friends north of the border.. Imemploiment in South Africa are high as it is, and with the new refuges it is harder to get a work in South Africa than before... So this have lot of thing long outside Zimwabwe itself..
