#1 What's sad is that somebody will fall for this NEP rehash.

#3 Like those farmers are getting younger, and they have been doing nothing, just waiting to come back?

#4 A few selected white farmers will be granted security of tenure on farms regarded to be ‘of strategic economic importance.’

Unfortunately, the safari business and guide remittances are a bit off following the Cecil episode. Many of the white farmers killed defending their properties, or died whilst living elsewhere, will likely not be able to participate in Mugabe's new programme. Still others may simply do as 'Uncle Ron' did and tell President for life Mugabe to FOAD.

#5 If I was one of these farmers, I'd say "I'll wait until all you bastards starve/emigrate to avoid starvation, and then come back.".

#6 Prediction: a large contingent of Chinese farmers are in their future. Well connected ones.

#8 What's the over-under in terms of the tribals killing off or chasing away the people that feed them if they come back... 18 months?

Racism is racism - be it black or white.
