What is going on in Zimbabwe? (Explained)

[@rjanarvikk4006]

"Thereis certainly no coup going on"- Said a military general on the state broadcaster

[@33276344]

Are still sure almost 3 years after!!

[@Cannibal713]

Sure does look like a coup.

[@WarblesOnALot]

G'day, Um, well, if it was a Coup then Zimbabwe would be kicked out of the "Club of Sub-Saharan AfriKan Nations..., so what this is was a Military Crackdown on Corruption in Government, a Purge, of all those who'd been treating Muggabe in his dotage as a Puppet - pulling his strings to empower and enrich themselves. And, this Paradigm-Shift was ticked-off on in Beijing last week, before the Military made it's move. The Thymes, they be a' changin'...! ;-p Ciao !

[@gengarsmaster3529]

Forcing out the White farmers and investors with outrageous demands for equity, thus kicking out the driving forces behind your economic power and food security, the government deserves whatever state it is in right now. It should be a lesson that a country should reward people based on merit, not race. If they want to correct inequality, there are ways without resorting to drastic measure. You could have programs to benefit Black Zimbabweans, higher tax bracket for the rich, allocate those resources to help create jobs and attract investment.

Alan Scott should the white population of Leicester give up all their rights and possessions to South Indians who do better than them economically in that city and could possibly handle them better?

[@wamnicho]

Alan Scott That's not the way life works my friend, people will always prefer to live and work among people who look like them whether qualified or not. That's mother nature's way

[@chrisizme2]

Very sad that the country was better off under the rule of the UK.

[@McFraneth]

Looks like a coup, smells like a coup, but it isn't a coup?

[@dothedeed]

The Army doesn't want to rule - so not a coup. Its a bloodless revolution to introduce democracy.

[@RS16DZ]

If u want to know the future of Zimbabwe know the past of Algeria.

[@Roadtrip53]

Nothing to see here. Just another example of the total failure of most African countries to govern themselves. The despot Mugabee will leave and a new despot will take his place, and Zimbabwe's people will continue to suffer at the hands of their own. All under the guise of the "revolution," not withstanding the 20,000 Nedebele's that Mugabee's 5th Brigade murdered with Britain's acquiescence. I wonder how many would prefer a return of the old Rhodesia.

[@j.r.765]

[@dothedeed]

I see you're a good student of "The Rules for Rulers"

[@flypig698]

SS sagemode stealing from the "rich" and giving to the poor will make you popular, until the people you are calling the "rich" are the one's who have just enough to feed their families. Then only the thugs of a society will be still stick with you until the only person they can feed of is you. The wicked Intelligence knows the power that can be taken by using Conflict Theory by Karl Marx. Only problem is it doesn't last if you are confined to one nations borders. You run out of the "privileged" to take away from.

[@dothedeed]

+Sohail Uppal - he's talking about this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qITXfWqknrdqndU

[@dothedeed]

+Sohail Uppal as long as the country has resources that can be exported like diamonds / oil / gold etc then a few thugs are all you need. You just guard the resource, control its extraction and export and you and your thugs stay rich. The ordinary people don't really matter.

[@subz7352]

Letting theWorld bank and the IMF to participate in restructuring Zimababwe would be a huge mistake. The developing world is in a mess because of these institutios. It would a recolonisation by western capital

[@HelmetBlissta]

Sabelo Mkhatshwa fortunately we have BRICS nations and alternative financing. The old order is falling away. Here's to a bright future.

[@dothedeed]

The only purpose of the world bank / IMF is to force govts to sell their assets to private hedge funds.

[@HumanRights4Everyone]

LOL, wut?! So you can be a Chinese puppet instead? Did ya'll learn nothing from the cold war?

[@yarpen26]

You know what is the one institution that keeps the Third World countries the shitholes that they are? Their population's very own ineptitude, laziness and indifference. Fix these and you will thrive. Stop blaming anybody else because we've seen how well the Asians have been doing without all that whining. I'm sorry that daddy beat you as a kid. Mine did too. *So get a fucking therapy or whatever and move the fuck on!*

[@RobertJohnson-cd9zq]

So here is the take on this: Firstly when Mugabe needed to eradicate political opponents who supported him ? The very same military who is supposed to uphold the constitution according to this general is also the very same people who killed hundreds if not thousands who apposed Mugabe. Zimbabwe (Robert Mugabe) was a military controlled government pretending to be a democratic country and in their constitutional view if they don t like the successor its their duty to uphold it. When Mugabe killed black Zimbabweans who opposed his rule they helped and supported it (Hypocrisy as best) This take over stems from the fact that the deputy president was fired by Bob a person the military intended to succeed Mugabe is the only reason for this action. Zimbabweans are nowhere as important to them than the so called constitution - they would have protected all Zimbabweans in the time many were killed who went against Robert Mugabe. This is obvious, Zimbabwe will never be able to have a free, fair election process if there is a military who decide who the successor must be. It may look like and election, simply because the international community wants it, behind the scene its actually an appointed person heading the country appointed by the Military. Zimbabwe obviously understands the democratic principal of and elected person by the people for the people very different to the rest of the world. A military is A political and does not remove a head of state - the voter has to do that in an open, free and fair election. The African Union is also pro Mugabe - thus the reason they came out saying they will not or never accept a power shift done by a military takeover. Both ways its a F-up and people in Zimbabwe will continue to be screwed by their government. Show less REPLY

[@lazyman2451]

So your telling me that the government is giving all his power to the military and avoid all the people problem

[@JohnSmith-yd2cu]

"...Zimbabwe has extraordinary potential..." - NO. Just NO.

[@fredwinslow744]

Constitutional democracy cannot survive tribalism Tribalism doesn’t give rise to it Years of internal experience maybe God help this country

[@flypig698]

Fred Winslow nothing can survive Marxism

[@ncrveteranranger9126]

I miss rodeshia...

[@kvyatalpinista8942]

you meant Rhodesia right?

[@pinky1489]

The so call "Crocodile" don't need to be the leader either. He was supporting the policies of Mugabe, so he is probably equally as corrupt. Zanu-pf must go too. The people need to be the one to chose the next leader by voting that person in.

[@AnArchyRulzz]

How many times is the west going to cheer on a coup? Sometimes the alternative is worse.

[@dothedeed]

That's the logic the west always uses to install dictators who brutalize the population. A transition to democracy is always worse for us but you scream about freedom for yourselves.

[@yarpen26]

Actually, either way this plays out, it will be beneficial for the West and not just the West. Obviously if that new crook they put in power tries _anything_ to fix the economy, things will improve. But if he doesn't, the global economy doesn't give a fuck about Zimbabwe, it's a country with literally no significance in the international trade and politics and so its further downfall will be of absolutely no economic import. If there's a bigass civil war then at least the black supremacists down in South Africa will finally have to shut the fuck up about imitating Zimbabwe and their country might _finally_ start getting onto the right track of not whining and actually progressing. In other words, everybody (at least outside of Zimbabwe) wins.

[@chenjeraipise]

You wre probably right

It's very simple...drive them out. Trump message while he was in Saudi..the situation in Lebanon is another one.

[@seabelomothibi340]

interview very intense...he is asking him about the president if he wants him off the chair!

[@bobkebob9980]

The UK caused this problem in the first place.

[@SIXITHS]

No, this is because the Generals greatly dislike her because they see her as unfit. The people in Zimbabwe also don't like her due to her corruption. This is occuring now due to an internal succession crisis. To keep blaming the UK for current problems is absurd.

[@stevencassidy6982]

what? 37 years ago? Jesus Wept

[@tgovender9467]

Bob Kebob shit heads like u caused this and let it continue. No matter how bad the British were they weren't as bad as this. They never run the country into the ground.

[@bobkebob9980]

[@fredwinslow744]

What kind of country is this exactly ? what do the people think zimbabwe 🇿🇼 is ? Someone tell me ?

[@flypig698]

Mugabe's only political tool was marxist Conflict Theory, ounce he ran out of people to blame for others problems the game was over. Now all his fans have to blame is the CIA or Colonialism or the Jews or someone else

[@colinburnside8725]

Robert Mugabe i s 93 which is fine. How many other people in Zimbabwe live to that age. As a % of the population ? Maybe 2%. It,s time for him to go quietly and in a dignified manner. Financial stability in any country is the key to economic growth. ......:)

[@flypig698]

Good bye Gucci Grace YDB

[@jerustitus7725]

Zanu Pf is a complete disgrace. They have treated a once proud man in the most shameful manner. They have keep him artificially alive, for all intent and purpose, knowing full well he no longer had the mental and physical capacity to be fully effective. THey presented him in this pitiful state to the world and kept him around while they are scheming and plotting behind the scenes. What happened to African respect for the elderly. You got blinded by the lust of power so much that you have lost your souls. Stop abusing and using the old man, you devils.

[@flypig698]

jerus titus must have been very proud especially when he ordered the Gukurahundi massacres, respect goes out the window when you have a leader who sold lie and used the worst kind of people to carry out his orders. The was people are willing to over look the fact that he was nothing more than a yet another oppertunist. It's only the face that he took away from white farmers that makes people blind about his actions against anyone who stood in his way.

[@jerustitus7725]

The same people (ZANU PF) is fielding as a likely successor none other than the crocodile. the crocodile of the Gukurahundi massacres, infamy. As far as Mugabe is concerned, he is past his due date. We wonèt be punishing the same person. Age has become a big mitigating factor. We cannot undo Mugabeès evil, but we sure canèt turn into Mugabe lites. We have a conscience. We see a pathetic old man deserving of pity and mercy, not because of him, but because of us.

Guys do not be so excited. Robert was once a liberator but look at him now. Pray for the next ruler so he should rule with the fear of God.

[@flypig698]

Calling a Marxists a liberator is only possible if your ignorant

[@flypig698]

He sure did liberate the thugs and huligans to do what ever they wanted in the name of the poor, redistribution lol and don't do on thinking it was only white people so it was ok, he's thugs massacred many more black people than white. As if calling them privileged for managing to be successful is justification to kill them and take away their property. Only Marxist would support such retarded logic.

[@blessedchild2879]

Sohail Uppal good thing I said once a liberator. This video and other videos states the same thing.

[@AMYV3]

This was a very uncomfortable interview on all levels .. is it the interviewer?

[@commonman80]

The Talk show Host states Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa "Has a bad record"... "A Bad Record"? Is a Matter of Opinion... From his Perspective? I guess it would seem like "A Bad Record"... Because it was His "Type" That Ruled Over The Peoples of Zimbabwe for Centuries as if the peoples of Zimbabwe we Animals.. Just because Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa, did what needed to be done to Correct A Wrong that had Occurred FOR CENTURIES? DOES NOT SHOW A MAN WITH A BAD RECORD... But A Man Of GREAT CHARACTER.. The "Bad Record"? Was before President Mugabe... The talk show host should be ASHAMED for making such a Statement... Incredible....

[@flypig698]

commonman80 another example of a person using Conflict Theory to gain and maintain power, Mugabe's mass murders and not just the "white devil's", were hidden when he was useful to the West and he would have still been a puppet had news of him actions not got out, only a fool who's only reason for liking him would be that allong with all the people he caused the murders of some of them were white. lol people like you are basically idialogs, who Easily fall cult leaders. So let it out be honest the only reason you like his is caused he redistributed land which was owned by white farmers and allowed the killing if the "white devil's" be truthful it's ok to let your hated out rather than hiding behind a cult leader.

[@commonman80]

I love Him Because He Forced Whites off The Land THEY STOLE From the peoples of Zimbabwe.. By Manipulating A people that had No Real Idea of The White Thieves Intentions... Then Used Said Stolen Land To Prosper For Themselves While The Peoples Of Zimbabwe Starved. Not Only Of Food? But Of Education And Land That Originally Belonged TO THEM FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS BEFORE THE EUROPEAN CAME THEIR AND STOLE IT... And? If you ask me? In My Opinion? The Resistance Movement Didn't kill enough of them.. I wish they Had Killed Them All... That way THEY WOULD AND COULD NEVER RETURNED... But The Ones Who did Slither out of Zimbabwe with their Monstrous Demon Lives? I'm Quite Sure they Took Their Demon Asses BACK TO EUROPE And, Did the same thing to The White Europeans... RIGHT?
