No need to send the tanks in to Zimbabwe

Just stop funding the Aids programme - The country's army used to be the biggest blood donator for the blood transfusion service.
In 1990 the Blood Transfuion service stopped "bleeding: the army as the HIV positive reached 75% of all that drawn and HIV blood had to be destroyed - it also put the trained Lab Technitions at extreme risk while processing it.

The UK did a survey in 1989 / 1990 and the average male between 15 and 50 had 20 girls on the go at any one time - that explains the Aids numbers.

The % is now at about 95% of the Army. So stop the Aids drugs and there will be nobody there to protect Big Bad Bob.

That statement is not politically correct, I know, but that is the reality of the situation. But then who wants to "bump off" half the population of a country in the next few years and stand by and watch it happen?

People wonder why Bob sent the Zim army to Zaire to fight - the reason was money - he paid the army in local ZW$ and took the payment in US$ the US$ is worth something unlike the ZW$.
I left in 1990 and it took ZW$2.5 to but 1GB£ The current official rate is ZW$490000 = 1GB£ (But the official rate is not working so the country trades on Black Market at ZWD2000000 = GB£1 (Note I have taken into effect the devaluation of losing three zeros in August 2006) Inflation per the government is over 1000% - in reality to live expect closer to 3500% per annum. (I guess my Zimbabwe pension is not worth much now!)

Anyway the country is great, the wldlife better, the average person very friendly but without something that someone else wants (OIL / NUKES) Zimbabwe is written off.

By the way I have also now heard that a lot of the farms taken from "White Farmers" have been given to Col. Qadafi (Libya) to "pay" for oil he sent to them.
