While strolling in his backyard one sunny day in Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe was thinking of how to offer energy to his people after enacting policies that destroyed the nation’s economy. And he stumbled upon URANIUM!
OK, that’s not really how Mugabe says it happened. But he would like you to believe that story, minus the parts regarding him destroying his own nation’s economy! It is because of HIM that they are unable to do well for themselves. His actions have run up inflation, to the point that energy prices sky rocketed and they face the energy crisis that they are in today! Rightfully many Western nations keep their distance from anything that might support this tyrant, because anything he gets he abuses! Outside of removing Rhodesian oppressors in the previous government, Mugabe has been one of the world’s most perfect examples of a tyrant! For the people it’s been like going from one bad government that does not look like you, to another bad government that does, WITH LESS FOOD AND POWER TO LIVE ON! Starving those who oppose him! Going against land reform policies and votes! And like Saddam, he does these things while somehow claiming that he is legitimately re-elected repeatedly
!
Mugabe has announced that uranium was found in Zimbabwe, but has not said how or where. There are known uranium sites in Zimbabwe, but none were ever found to contain any significant amounts of the material. It is not known if more was found at one of those sites, somewhere else or if Mugabe is making all of this up!
He claims he won’t make any nukes (weapons). But he’s made a lot of “claims” about how he would do things during his time. And given his actions it is not in the interest of the USA to see this man even close to having a nuke! He did not say that he would avoid selling the material to his buddies in China, North Korean and Iran! He “claims” he will use the uranium to make energy for his people. How he will develop the infrastructure need to run a nuclear power plant is unknown.
Analysts feel this might just be an effort by Mugabe to keep pressure from the USA and Britain off his back!

I was reading somewhere how uranium is destroying the reproductive system and causing cancer to soldiers that serve in the Gulf War. As a result, there are reports of deformed babies being born, especially in the Middle East.

What exactly does that have to do with Robert Mugabe?
Mistakes made in 1991 are sad and long been noted and corrected. Please let’s keep things on topic.

Well, like your friendly blogger, Gxg would say, my bad. This Mugabe guy sounds like a power hungry, money hungry creep. He sounds like he’s more concerned with other things that would benefit him than the needs of his own country. Why is there starvation and inflation in his country. Truth or myth about the uranium discovery, uranium in his abusive hands is bad and so is he.

Do you think Mugabe could see the same fate as Sadaam if things get too out of hand?

Art123, you probably should read some of the other posts here about Mugabe.
