| Burn in hell, asshole [BBC] Robert Mugabe 'ate a zoo' during his lavish 91st birthday party, unleashed death squads to murder his enemies and forced thousands of his people to starve. One of the most ruthless tyrants of modern times was both condemned and praised after he died aged 95 in a Singapore hospital on Friday. He was regarded as a liberation hero when he became Zimbabwe's leader following the end of white colonial rule in 1980, but he evolved into a villain through a reign of terror lasting almost four decades. His legacy is that of an oppressive dictator known for corruption, human rights abuses and brutal and outrageous exploits, including dining on a baby elephant at his extravagant birthday party in 2015.

| #3 Having governed itself since 1923, having supported the UK and the West with valuable manpower in three wars, and acting on stated approvals of the British Government, the Rhodesian cabinet declared a Unilateral Declaration of Indenpendence (UDI) from the United Kingdom on 11 November 1965. The Rhodesian government then established a new constitution (modeled after the American Constitution). Harold Wilson, the British Prime Minister, declared the UDI illegal and an act of rebellion on 12 November. The United Nations Security Council declared the UDI illegal on 19 November, calling on Britain to end the rebellion. All of this setting the stage for the Perfidious Albion regime change, the ousting of President Ian Smith, the election of Mugabe, and the present day disaster known as Zimbabwe. Wilson now has a new Canasta partner in hell. |
