President Robert Mugabe Stays On. With The Brothers Sending Their High Fives

Dan Majestic writes: How do you think Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe feels? I mean, how does he view his prospects of staying on in power, say, till he’s 90 or 95? The cunning fox, or Crocodile, as he is more commonly known, is 87 now. I bet you he’s sitting pretty in his presidential palace and looks with confidence into the future. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he outlives most of his political opponents and opens several dozen more off-shore accounts, to accommodate his vast and constantly growing personal wealth. I’ve even heard that Mr Mugabe is still sexually active and intends to stay that way for another decade at least. So there might be the tapping of little feet yet to come as well. And yet, it was only a couple of years ago that the world community, or at least a...

Robert Mugabe Stays On. And No One Says A Word Against Him

Dan Majestic writes: Is it not remarkable how everyone seems to have forgotten about President Robert Mugabe? You know, the Zimbabwean dictator, the man who turned his once prosperous country into a total mess. When was it last time that Western leaders were expressing their concern about the situation in Zimbabwe and accusing President Mugabe and his supporters of brutality and murder? And when was it the last time that the West was threatening the dictator with tough sanctions and isolation? If you remember when it was still fashionable to condemn Mugabe a couple of years ago some Western governments were even calling for him to be brought before the International Criminal Court in the Hague for war crimes. But now everyone has forgotten about Zimbabwe. Mugabe continues to do as he pleases... 

President Robert Mugabe Has Turned 85 Last Week. The Nation And The Whole World Rejoice

R.F.Wilson writes: That favourite politician of ours, President Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe, has turned 85 last week. We even held a party at StirringTroubleInternationally to mark the big occasion. No expense was spared. Donations were accepted to help Mr Mugabe continue his struggle against colonial powers and reach that milestone – 30 years in power next year, first as Prime Minister in 1980-1987 and then as President. We even had a banner hanging across the room with the words on it: ‘Come on Mr Mugabe, we know you can do it!’ Say what you will, but President Mugabe looks great for his age. Smooth skinned, with not a wrinkle on his face, very articulate, strong physically, if you consider the way he held on to power despite all attempts to unseat him. We were informed by his... 

President Robert Mugabe Is Still In Charge In Zimbabwe. Just As We Have Been Predicting

How ironic that despite all the so-called ‘international indignation’ and all the tough talk on the part of Western leaders, lasting for the whole of the last year and the year before, President Robert Mugabe is still running Zimbabwe and no one seems to be able to do anything about it. The latest news coming from Harare is that Mugabe has struck a ‘powersharing deal’ with the opposition leader, Morgan Tsvangari, which allows the latter to become prime minister in a government of national unity. The deal was initially hailed as a sign of progress and there was even talk that at last the days of Mugabe could be coming to an end. But here is the catch: Mugabe can sack Tsvangari at a moment’s notice, if he deems him to be incompetent. That sort of makes the future prime... 

It’s Amazing How StirringTrouble Predicts Things! How About Another Prediction?

Has anyone in the serious media, or any other media for that matter, predicted correctly ten months ago what would happen in Zimbabwe by the end of this year? That President Robert Mugabe would stay in power, keep the opposition at bay and ignore international calls to step down? Well, let me first remind you about an article that we had posted on our website in April. Here it is, including the original heading: Zimbabwe: The Future Is Not Looking Good ‘So what is going to happen now in Zimbabwe?’ I asked a man recently who knows the situation in that country very well, having just returned from there. ‘What will Robert Mugabe do now?’ I don’t want to name my source because he travels back and forth to Zimbabwe all the time and would not feel safe if his details were...
