Recolonise now!

Mugabe is not one of our comrades here at REL but statements like this "The Times has learnt that the Ministry of Defence already has two contingency plans, one involving the deployment of troops into Zimbabwe. " bodes even worse for the working classes of his country. With the piteous figure of Ashdown slobbering for military action, it looks like the psyops to get the British public behind another fucked up armed intervention has just ratcheted up a notch. Mugabe must go, but the Gordon Brown and his caged reptiles are not the people to do it.

Whatever happens, western military intervention is the worst case possible. Doing nothing is better than the wretched something they have to offer - the doing must be owned by the Zimbabwean people - no matter how tumultuous and painful that transition is. British troops on the ground will make a bad situation unbearable. It must not happen.
