I’m fairly familiar with the tragic Zimbabwe situation in that I have been following since 2000. The land takeover was pure politics, not at all economics. The land was stolen by and for Mugabe’s cronies. Pure cleptocracy.

What a mess Mugabe has made of his country. The white population has plummeted to only a few tens of thousands. Soon, he won’t be able to blame anybody but himself for the mess he has made.
