There has already been media spin pooh-poohing it -- to nip such speculation in the bud, obviously -- but clearly the Zimbabwe economic crisis has been brought on in large part by secret Anglo-U.S.-EU economic sabotage/warfare. Which operate in much the same way that the big hedge funds and their banking buddies whipsaw national currencies and the like with their daily covert 'pump and dump' manipulations. And all this is in the interests of laying the groundwork for one of the now obvious NATO-style 'color revolutions' to happen, on the political side of the manipulations.

No doubt, they never figured they'd have to go as far as with the Saddam Hussein regime here; but clearly the Mugabe clique has been shored up substantially by chinese and other geopolitical rival support. This 'great game' might be very far from over yet...

Frankly: I have a hard time supporting even deserving workers and trade unionists who become willing puppets of international imperialism, justifying themselves with their superficial aims -- while entire countries and their masses are brought even more tightly into imperialist thrall. What a tough call we have here!
We are not amused. Not at all.
