Mugabe Ruins A Nation, The Triumph Of Evil Over Good

         37 years in power, in which time Mugabe turned a food exporting nation into a poverty stricken nation while he turned himself, his cronies and his family into multimillionaires. Political opponents brutalized and murdered, elections rigged, poor people displaced and made homeless, white farmers beaten and murdered with their lands given not to war veterans and poor people as Mugabe claimed, but to his friends and family, including his corrupt, insatiably greedy wife. The breadbasket of Africa is now a basketcase.

         Emmerson Mnangagwa , Mugabe's former right hand man and considered complicit in Mugabe's crimes, will take over as interim president. While Zimbabweans rejoice about the end to the Mugabe regime, it might be more of the same corruption and brutality that Mugabe served.

        Why was this allowed to happen?  Mugabe played the race card, demonizing the small white minority while he looted and destroyed a nation. Look at the nations, powerful people and business interests that helped keep him in power.       
        Mugabe and his wife have been freed from prosecution. How this one evil, greedy man stayed in power for so long while inflicting so much damage on millions of poor Zimbabweans is a testimony to the lasting power of evil in a world filled with far too little good.
