HORMONE OF GREED IN BLOOD!
Robert Mugabe
Torture victim of Mugabe's regime ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eish. I don't even know what to say for this one. Counter factual history is not terribly productive, but every time I sit and wish that the Nkrumahs and Lumumbas were still alive, the monster that Mugabe has become chastises me, because you never know... What then shall we do?
i agree with you, friend. leaders are time-specific and that specific time differs which is why some leaders don't realize it is up. Mugabe was good for the 80's.eish, these leaders, their weaknesses come from the very qualities that made them heroic at one point..
Some are bad and stay bad (like George Bush). Some are bad and improve (F.W. de Klerk comes to mind). Some are OK and go bad (like Mad Bob and Tony Blair), and some are good and stay good (like Madiba).
Unfortunately those in the last category are also the rarest.
