[A-List] U.S. trying to overthrow Mugabe

[Macdonald Stainsby]

Patrick, your reputation among many comrades not withstanding, someone 
who openly consorts with people working to overthrow a third world 
government whose initial roots were in an anti-imperialist struggle, 
whose policies are the same as standard pro-imperialist movements 
throughout the world to impoverish/give land to Eurpoean 
settlers/destroy the environment and reduce the soverignty of southern 
Africa to a quaint notion-- doing all that in the name of "Human Rights" 
and "democracy" leaves you no place to call me "Naïve", any more than 
the twits who said so from Belgrade a few years back, people who 
denounce Cuba, and so on can do so. Ho many "revolutions" against 
"tyrants" that reduce countries to starvation and their "proper place" 
in a world dominated by imperialism will you need to see?

Further, if you want to post your rebuttals to other lists, may I remind 
you that I am not your secretary.

You show me an anti-imperialist, non-imperial funded, pro-land reform, 
and moreover pro-African opposition to Zanu-PF and I'll be glad to see 
it. Until then, those who consort with imperialist attempts to subjugate 
whole nations who get "uppity" will remain the truly naïve, when they 
are the ones, like the "Anti-Milosevic and anti-Nato" forces who were 
"talking left, acting right". Otpor, before it was completely hi-jacked 
by the subverters of Yugoslavia through the NED and George Soros, was a 
loosely anarchist federation. Good intentions are not guarantors of good 
results.

Talk left, act right.
