“As we in spirit join the United States in condemning that death, shall the United States also join us in condemning that barbaric death of the head of state of Libya - Gaddafi?” Mugabe stated.


.

Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe said on Wednesday the death of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi was as tragic as that of U.S. Ambassador to Libya Christopher Stevens, as he delivered a scathing critique of U.S., U.N. and NATO actions.

Speaking firmly, if occasionally stumbling over words, the 88-year-old president accused the United States of "rushing to suck oil from Iraq" when it invaded the country in 2003 on the erroneous grounds that it possessed weapons of mass destruction.

He said the U.N. Security Council had allowed itself to be "abused" last year by authorizing "all necessary measures" - diplomatic code for military intervention - to protect civilians in Libya in a NATO operation that eventually toppled Gaddafi's government and led to his death at the hands of rebels.

Speaking with deliberate irony, Mugabe opened an address to the U.N. General Assembly by praising as "most glowing and most moving" a speech by U.S. President Barack Obama on Tuesday in which he rued Stevens' death.

Stevens and three other Americans were killed during what Washington has called a "terrorist" attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi on Sept. 11. The assault forced the evacuation of U.S. personnel from the eastern city that was the hub for the Libyan rebel movement.

"I am sure we were all moved, we all agree, that it was a tragic death indeed and we condemn it," said Mugabe, who has ruled Zimbabwe since independence from Britain in 1980 and is among Africa's longest-serving leaders.

"As we in spirit join the United States in condemning that death, shall the United States also join us in condemning that barbaric death of the head of state of Libya - Gaddafi? It was a loss, a great loss, to Africa, a tragic loss to Africa."

'A HUNT, A BRUTAL HUNT'

The Zimbabwean accused the United States and North Atlantic Treaty Organization, the 28-member Western security alliance whose air strikes helped Libyan rebels defeat Gaddafi's forces, of acting under false pretenses.

"The mission was strictly to protect civilians, but it turned out that there was a hunt, a brutal hunt, of Gaddafi and his family," Mugabe said. "In a very dishonest manner we saw ... Chapter 7 being used now as a weapon to rout a whole family."

Chapter 7 of the United Nations Charter allows the U.N. Security Council to authorize actions ranging from diplomatic and economic sanctions to military intervention.

"Bombs were ... thrown about in a callous manner and quite a good many civilians died. Was that the protection that they had sought under Chapter 7 of the Charter?

"So the death of Gaddafi must be seen in the same tragic manner as the death of Chris Stevens. We condemn both of them."

Mugabe, a long-standing critic of the West, is himself widely criticized for turning what was once one of Africa's strongest economies into a basket case and has been accused of hanging on to power through vote-rigging.

Other speakers at the U.N. General Assembly on Wednesday - notably Bolivia's leftist president, Evo Morales, and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad - also criticized the United States for what they see as economic and political bullying.

A U.S. official had no immediate comment on Mugabe's remarks.

The Zimbabwean leader appeared to be in reasonable health despite questions about his wellbeing sparked by Zimbabwean media reports that he has traveled to Singapore eight times in the past year to seek medical attention.

He walked in an almost jaunty manner to and from the lectern in the General Assembly hall, where he read his speech from a written text.

I like Mugabe


Murdering Qaddafi, will hunt west .. same as murdering Patrice Lumumba

Mugabe is a dictatorial psycho killer that has driven his country into ruin.

With friends like these . . .

The real story out of sub-Saharan Africa today is the rapid economic development in many countries.

The West has completely forgotten Patrice Lumumba except, perhaps, amongst the cognoscenti of hand-wringing.

Suspect that it may be same in rapidly developing Africa also.

Seconded, colonel typhoon.
i have friens who were farmers in Zimbabue and had to flee the country when Mugabe took over.
After Mungabe took over, thousands of animals were killed,farms and crops devastated no tourism and the country now is a shithole.
I don't speak on behalf of Mr Sun but he is not shoeshinning anyone; by the way you need to polish and shine your ideas Mr Persicum.
Why are the miners in SA in a bad shape? Good question, many interesting resposnses.
Maybe because SA rulers haven't done a good job lately.
Last month I traveled to SA for the third time and I was shocked to discover that only blacks are accepted to be trained as Air Force pilots.

Zimbabwe for Zimbabweans, Africa for Africans .. what do white farmers want in Zimbabwe ? ? ?

All fertile farmland of Zimbabwe was White European owned .. Mugabe took away from them and gave to black farmers .. yes, black farmers could not managed it and all things went down the drain .. but why white farmers had not trained blacks last few 100 yrs the skill to mange farming and and ? ? ? reason was whites did not want Blacks to advance, better keep them uneducated, untrained and dum .. that was the policy in colony, keep population down for as long as possible .. result is and was, colonies need the Westerners, and there is no skilled, patriot, not corrupt in Africa and other colonies .. if skilled and patriot, they terrorist

Same thing happened in South Africa .. South Africa was handed to corrupt black politicians to ensure "business as usual" .. that was the deal .. nothing changed except the color of the

Yes, SA military pilots only black accepted .. yes, they lavender pilots, because whites did not train them to be pilot (why American black pilots no lavender pilots ?)

Look, Marcus

Brits controlled all colonies with absolute minimum British personnel

Trick was keep masses uneducated, bring foreigners (Indians) and give them privileges against the locals .. the foreigners, Indians (so many in Africa), controlled everything and terrorized the masses , but, they were loyal to colonial masters .. Idi Amin chased the Indians out etc etc

Gandhi , the famous Indian leader, was many generation South Africa (lawyer) .. he was in prison in South Africa for rebelling, similar to Nelson Mandela .. Gandhi was trained by Brits (in SA jail) to go back to India and instigate a "peaceful take over" .. same thing with Nelson Mandela, West trained him in Jail for a "peaceful take over of Apartheid regime"

SA is same SA as B4, only color of the top has changed .. you saw when 80+ Gold miners were killed just recently

very similar in South America and all other colonies .. same concept


If you patriot and skilled, like Patrice Lumumba was, than you a terrorist

.

He was subsequently imprisoned and executed by firing squad, an act that was committed with the assistance of the government of Belgium, for which the Belgian government officially apologized in 2002

Raised in a Catholic family as one of four sons, he was educated at a Protestant primary school, a Catholic missionary school, and finally the government post office training school, passing the one-year course with distinction. He subsequently worked in Leopoldville (now Kinshasa) and Stanleyville (now Kisangani) as a postal clerk and as a travelling beer salesman. In 1951, he married Pauline Opangu. In 1955, Lumumba became regional head of the Cercles of Stanleyville and joined the Liberal Party of Belgium, where he worked on editing and distributing party literature. After traveling on a three-week study tour in Belgium, he was arrested in 1955 on charges of embezzlement. His two-year sentence was commuted to twelve months after it was confirmed by Belgian lawyer Jules Chrome that Lumumba had returned the funds, and he was released in July 1956. After his release, he helped found the broad-based Mouvement National Congolais (MNC) in 1958, later becoming the organization's president. Lumumba and his team represented the MNC at the All-African Peoples' Conference in Accra, Ghana, in December 1958. At this international conference, hosted by influential Pan-African President Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana, Lumumba further solidified his Pan-Africanist beliefs.
Leader of MNC

In late October 1959, Lumumba, as leader of the MNC, was arrested for allegedly inciting an anti-colonial riot in Stanleyville where thirty people were killed; he was sentenced to six months in prison. The trial's start date of 18 January 1960, was also the first day of a round-table conference in Brussels to finalize the future of the Congo. Despite Lumumba's imprisonment at the time, the MNC won a convincing majority in the December local elections in the Congo. As a result of strong pressure from delegates upset with Lumumba's trial, he was released and allowed to attend the Brussels conference. The conference culminated on January 27 with a declaration of Congolese independence setting June 30, 1960, as the independence date with national elections from 11–25 May 1960. Lumumba and the MNC won this election and the right to form a government, with the announcement on 23 June 1960 of 34-year-old Lumumba as Congo's first prime minister and Joseph Kasa-Vubu as its president. In accordance with the constitution, on 24 June the new government passed a vote of confidence and was ratified by the Congolese Chamber and Senate.

Independence Day was celebrated on June 30 in a ceremony attended by many dignitaries including King Baudouin and the foreign press. Lumumba delivered his famous independence speech after being officially excluded from the event programme, despite being the new prime minister.[4] The speech of Belgian King Baudouin praised developments under colonialism, his reference to the "genius" of his great-granduncle Leopold II of Belgium glossing over atrocities committed during the Congo Free State.[5] The King continued, "Don't compromise the future with hasty reforms, and don't replace the structures that Belgium hands over to you until you are sure you can do better... Don't be afraid to come to us. We will remain by your side, give you advice."[6] Lumumba responded by reminding the audience that the independence of the Congo was not granted magnanimously by Belgium:[6]

For this independence of the Congo, even as it is celebrated today with Belgium, a friendly country with whom we deal as equal to equal, no Congolese worthy of the name will ever be able to forget that it was by fighting that it has been won, a day-to-day fight, an ardent and idealistic fight, a fight in which we were spared neither privation nor suffering, and for which we gave our strength and our blood. We are proud of this struggle, of tears, of fire, and of blood, to the depths of our being, for it was a noble and just struggle, and indispensable to put an end to the humiliating slavery which was imposed upon us by force.[6]

In contrast to the relatively harmless speech of President Kasa-Vubu, Lumumba's reference to the suffering of the Congolese under Belgian colonialism stirred the crowd while simultaneously humiliating and alienating the King and his entourage. Some media claimed at the time that he ended his speech by ad-libbing, Nous ne sommes plus vos macaques! (We are no longer your monkeys!) --referring to a common slur used against Africans by Belgians, however, these words are neither in his written text nor in radio tapes of his speech.[2][7] Lumumba was later harshly criticised for what many in the Western world—but virtually none in Africa—described as the inappropriate nature of his speech.[8]

Whatever.

I always find it bemusing how many people prefer to fixate on past grievances, theirs or even more oddly those of others.
Events that in many cases occurred even before they were born,
rather than focusing on the present and future.

Mugabe has brought ruin to Zimbabwe for all Zimbabweans

Hyperinflation in Zimbabwe

With friends like him . . .

____

Meanwhile in many other parts of Africa:

McKinsey Quarterly | What’s driving Africa’s growth
Africa’s economic pulse has quickened, infusing the continent with a new commercial vibrancy. Real GDP rose by 4.9 percent a year from 2000 through 2008, more than twice its pace in the 1980s and ’90s. Telecommunications, banking, and retailing are flourishing. Construction is booming. Private-investment inflows are surging.

To be sure, many of Africa’s 50-plus individual economies face serious challenges, including poverty, disease, and high infant mortality. Yet Africa’s collective GDP, at $1.6 trillion in 2008, is now roughly equal to Brazil’s or Russia’s, and the continent is among the world’s most rapidly growing economic regions. This acceleration is a sign of hard-earned progress and promise.

Grievances for the past occurrences ? ? ?

:lol: .. Tell this to Jews .. they still milkin :D

come on, CS, come on .. colonialism has not stopped, form and tools have only changed, now cronies doing the job for the beast, proxy

yes, there is hyperinflation in Zimbabwe, yes, there is now massive inflation in Iran too (with absolute sanctions Iran has to pay many folds for everything imported - all due sanctions because Iran will not bend to colonial beasts)

question is why and who is causing it

That is why it is said Iran the most dangerous nation in the world .. not because of nuclear bomb but because Iran is awakening Africa and South America .. Arab awakening already done

Enough said

Iran is not awakening anyone here in S America; sure, some governments here see the Iranian government in a friendly way because antiamericanism is very common here.

Your africa for africans/blacks reasoning is very odd; if you follow this idea then it's time to pack your stuff and leave the west , you know, Iran for Iranians , west for westerns.

This, to me, is the real story of Africa. All the race issues and colonial legacies and internal chaos aside, there is just too much untapped economic potential. While there remain enclaves where it is impossible to see how things will improve in the foreseeable future, there is just too much money to be made, natural resources, human capital, and before you know it real political awareness.

I think that there is some truth to what Mugabe said.

As for the White Zimbabwean farmers and their complaints, they are welcome to leave Zimbabwe and go elsewhere. Given the crimes that they participated in and benefited from they have the gumption to complain.

Azari Persicum,you´re a funny guy with funny ideas.
Mumgabe fucked from day one , Iran as you say, the same story, Ayatollah running the country for the last 30 years and also being fucked since day one by the same people, my friends, as you called them??
Brazil is also an immigration land, ifyou´re born here you´re a Brazilian, it doesn´t matter your colour or were your parents came from.
So I have to disagree with you, this thing Africans for blacks, Asia for Asians,etc.. doesn´t make sense in the world today; I think it´s a mixture of racism and past grievances.
Regarding the immigration stuff: Obviously European countries need immigrants, but don´t forget that immigrants were looking for an opportunity that was not avaiable for them in their homeland, otherwise they would have stayed in their country.It´sa win/win game for both parts.
Please note that there are many illegals living in Europe,whenever there is a crisis in Africa , for example, during the Arab Spring, you see people risking their lifes trying to escape to Europe, not to the ME or to your beloved country.
So in my opinion, white people born in Africa are so African as the Blacks ; by the way , many of them consider themselves Africans, not British or Europeans.

Uche, my friends lost their farms, moved to S. Africa and now have a lucrative bussines, good for them but what about the people in Zimbabue that could not leave the country and now are watching Mungabe slowly destroy their place? I think Mungabe is the real problem today, not the white farmers .

I think that there is some truth to what Mugabe said.

As for the White Zimbabwean farmers and their complaints, they are welcome to leave Zimbabwe and go elsewhere. Given the crimes that they participated in and benefited from they have the gumption to complain.

European think, and Colonel Sun seconds it, that Brits can force Opium on China (with all that history of that episode that I save to post here), and when China is up and strong, OK, let's forget it

Colonel Sun, NO, past is not past .. how come Jews f*cking Germans for something that we not yet know and are not allowed to ask what really happened and who was involved in and cooperated and and and ? ? but that crime of Opium/China/Brits is past and let's 4get it

you want I post picture of Chinese being beheaded in Shanghai street ? ?

No , European history in Africa (and elsewhere) is not 4gotten .. only, Africa has no power to ask for holding account .. I can understand an European saying F.U. Africa and Middle East and Asia and South Africa, we have nuclear bomb and you don't, so sit down and shot up .. but Colonel Sun ? ?

Mugabe is 100% right .. Qaddafi was killed because he was helping Africa to rise up against western plundering of African natural resources .. Africa is he richest continent but Africans are the poorest on planet .. population of Africa is low, my guess is less than 500 million people, with natural resources they have they should be among richest on planet, but they poor like a mouse .. Gold Diamond Oil copper , you name it , they # 1 in the world .. but poor like a mouse

Are blacks durian not be able to raise cattle or farm or be jet pilots ? ?

come on , come on

Yes, Mugabe is runling the country since 10+ yrs, same as Ayatollah ruling Iran last 33 yrs .. but same story .. from day one, when Mugabe started Africa for African policy, he was f*cked by your friends, same since

That is moral, ethical and just

North Africans in France, or Turks in Germany did not force themselves to France or Germany .. They were INVITED by French and Germans

Like Brazil, though prefer Argentina (dream girls) .. was in Rio , Búzios very nice

Brazil, Canada, USA, Australia (all the same folks, Europeans) and and are all immigrant countries .. their indigini wiped out, murdered .. chapter of indigini in those countries are closed, wiped out .. indigini in those countries do not represent even 1% of population, probably less than 1 in 10,000.

In Africa, it is other way round .. probably much less than 1 white for 10,000 black

In that context, whites in Africa must be compared to Mohawk Indians in Canada or the indigini in Australia

How can just a few European control all farmland in Africa .. are the blacks idiots not capable farming ? ? whites did not train blacks in modern farming to keep them down

Look China now .. were Chinese inferior to British ? ? ? .. that Opium war and Chinese defeat and signed treaty infuriating China says Chinese were inferior to British .. same thing will happen to Africa and in Middle East .. in 60 yrs (took so long for China) Persia, Iran, could be major economic and military, and most important, CIVILIZATION .. but now, West is belittling Iran as "a lavender country" .. a nobody, Israel, wants to bomb Iran :lol:

Planctom,

Nobody, absolutely nobody, would like to leave their home and move to a foreign country, specially to a foreign culture and civilization .. absolutely nobody

This is specially true for Middle Eastern people .. Middle Eastern people are very much into their extended family and their local culture and friends .. they not even move to another city in their country, often they not even move to another neighborhood

so, notion that Middle Eastern people move to Canada or Germany or France or Brazil or Australia because they love Canada and Canadian culture (recent poll said 70% of Canadians want all Muslims be search in Airports) is wrong .. Syrians now escaping to Turkey and Lebanon and Jordan because west is destabilizing Syria and fermenting civil war in a country that factions have lived together in peace for 1000s of yrs

Modus operendi for west, when for geopolitical reason wanting to destabilize, f*ck, a country, is, to arm a faction and agitate against another faction .. that is standard procedure

When war and chaos brakes out in a country, or sanctions imposed for 33 yrs, life becomes difficult and people forced to move .. all making of colonial beasts

all boils to numbers .. if whites are majority in Africa, in that case you right .. France is not a north African country (yet :lol:) because North Africans are less than 10% of French .. once North Africans become @ least 35%, 1/3 of French or more, they might built mosques on top of churches, like Christians did in Spain :lol:

Your friend should have trained his African workers in MODERN farming and cattle raising and when they up and running, should have sold his farm to them and leave to Brazil or Argentina where he among his own

So what's the numerical cutoff that makes discrimination against a minority valid?

1/100?

1/10000?

A criteria for a civilized society is how it protects it's minorities today.

Thank you Very Much for your post, Azari.

How can just a few European control all farmland in Africa ..

How can the Chinese control so many of the stores/tiendas in Central America........

Because the Chinese work hard and don't spend as much time and money on clothes and partying as the Latinos

I have that information from non-Chinese Latino clan members there........

all boils to numbers .. if whites are majority in Africa, in that case you right .. France is not a north African country (yet :lol:) because North Africans are less than 10% of French .. once North Africans become @ least 35%, 1/3 of French or more, they might built mosques on top of churches, like Christians did in Spain :lol:

Quite Right about the Muslims......... "they might built mosques on top of churches".......... Muslims do things like that when they invade places...... Hagia Sophia anyone.......

Muslims do that Shrine Destruction Dominance Dance elsewhere......... Convert Hindu shrines into mosques......... And when the Hindus get power again the mosque is destroyed................

Typhoon,

That man in the picture was never the president of Nigeria. He appears to be a traditonal king and there are many of those in Nigeria. Almost every ethnic group in Nigeria has either a king or a traditional chief and their primary function is to be the custodian of the traditions and cultures of their clan or ethnic group.

As for tradional attire, Nigerians do like wearing those. I do sometimes wear them here to work. When I was much younger I used them as a "babe magnet" and they worked wonders. But these days I try not to wear them too often or to be more circumspect as to where I wear them to. I do not want a crazed citizen mistaking me for a "terrorist" or a Sikh. One never knows. So better to be safe than sorry.

Damn, that's a good idea.

The success of this ploy also hints at the Freudian roots of anti-African prejudice among Europeans.
