Zimbabwe’s President Robert Mugabe has threatened ‘tit for tat’ retaliation

“They should not continue to harass us, the British and Americans,” Mugabe, Africa’s oldest leader at 89, said at the funeral of an airforce officer.

“We have not done anything to their companies here, the British have several companies in this country, and we have not imposed any controls, any sanctions against them, but time will come when we will say well, tit for tat, you hit me I hit you.”

    These are the words of a dying horse, for you have nothing to loose. Your days are near, and you know it! Think Mugabe, think of the young generation which is walking the streets on an empty stomach yet well educated, what is their future? South Africa? Uk? Australia, USA? Lets see how indigenisation is going to revive the economy. You are truly ruthless to the people you think you lead.

    Ah, the great peacemaker speaks… and continues to show us that he’s just a mean old man with no new ideas. How will harassing western companies bring fresh water and real jobs to Zimbabwe?

    The old fool forgets how much aid the west has given and continues to give despite Mugabes evil tongue. These so called sanction are but to a handful of people and consist mainly of freezing of assets and travel bans. How can this be affecting a whole country!!!!!???? Mugabe Zimbabwe needs Britian more than Britian needs Zim.
