#1 I'll bet he wishes Zimbabwe has oil. Like, say, Venezuela-- the "poor oil producing nation".

#6 SH---LOL! I googled a couple of currency exchange sites and found nothing. Maybe Thomas Cooke does not go there.

#7 What's the big surprise? Nigeria and Angola both take in US$ 100 million a day and still remain on a list of the 30 poorest nations. The only thing Mugabe wants for is a bullet in the brain.

There is also a lingering cultural element of how many African leaders regard the entire country's assets as their own personal possession. To that I say, nothing a bullet can't cure. These corrupt pigs need to be exterminated like the vermin they are.

If you want the real winner, it's Suharto. That slime bag made off with between US$ 15 - 35 billion during his tenure. Somehow, he has been judged too feeble to stand trial. Who needs a trial? Just let 100 of Indonesia's poor people scrape the flesh from his body while he's still alive.
