Mugabe: African spies must work together to defeat uitlander drones
2013-05-07
Zimbabwe's president says Africa's intelligence services must prepare for fresh onslaughts by foreigners and the continent's former colonisers to grasp its natural resources.

President Robert Mugabe said on Monday that Africa's vast reserves of resources and the world-wide recession have triggered a new scramble for control of its "raw wealth".

Opening a convention of the continent-wide 49-nation Committee of Intelligence and Security Services, Mugabe said outsiders have used at least 20 armed conflicts in Africa since 1990 to gather intelligence and deploy "stealth predator drones," unmanned surveillance aircraft, to spy on African countries.

He told Africa's annual meeting of security agents who work under the cloak of secrecy that they are now confronted by increasing human and drug trafficking, money laundering and internet terrorism.

#1  Know a bit about terrorism, killing civilians, etc, I'll give him that. Wise fellow that old Bob. He holds an honorary degree from Moorehouse here in Atlanta as well as honorary degrees from Michigan State and University of Mass. Brilliant chap I'd say.
