| #6 On the serious side, the word is that they are targetting all those with satellites and foreign comms, now.....your dish must be cammoed-up if you're a civvie even. There is no point asking the Church or Opposition to do anything without some kind of support. None from the powers that gave Mad Bob access to Congo diamonds and rape of the land for a Mercedes-Benz convoy, and a Swiss Hotel. The History tells me that the Western World sold the Rhodesians down the River, and now it's no-one's problem. No-one expected it could go so wrong, not Wilson, who probably thought it a joke, not Thatcher and not Kissinger And who exactly said he could attend the Pope's funeral? I'm not RC, but I think that would be grounds for ex-commumication, the little I know of it, inviting the Devil to a funeral. I say, scope 'em. |

| #5 I would add the whole of zanu-pf, (half the shona tribe), and any "war-vet" who got a farm, but Bob would do for a start, make it fast and furious. |

| #4 correct - take that bitch Grace out as well, and save half the countrie's treasure. The heads of all facets of the gov't, military, and police have to go, as well. Where are those covert AK47 shipments? |

| #3 Not just "one well placed bullet." I'm not aware of any designated successor for Mr M, but some of the likely victors in the power struggle are about as nasty as he--the tools he's used aren't going to be saints. That doesn't mean the plan isn't doable, just not quite as simple as one shot. |

| #2 Lol, 2b! What, and endanger the sacred stability of ZimBobLand? Surely, you jest! The magic phrase, one that the knee-jerks (emphasis on jerks) had enshrined in a Presidential order because they deemed it misused once, is wet work. I suggest that the tool is never at fault for flawed work, the user is. Taking the tool from the toolbox merely guarantees you'll end up having to use the wrong tool for the job at that future time - such as ZimBob, now. Here we need an icepick, and the closest thing we have is a hammer. Stupid is as stupid does, it seems. |

| #1 one well placed bullet. Millions spared agony and grief. Some decisions should be easy. |
