Do any Americans know whom Robert Mugabe is?

Question

Or do they have more important things to worry about besides one of the greatest tyrants of all time.

Answer 1

Yes, he is the guy who has single-handedly destroyed Zimbabwe, destroying any semblence of liberty, freedom, free speech, property rights, prosperity, hope, etc. Yes, we know about him, but there's nothing we can do about it.

Answer 2

Robert Mugabe?

The man that ****** up Zimbabwe?

If he was the man that took all of the land from the white and gave it to black farmers who could not make use of the vast land, and henceforth the country is in starvation, then yes i know about him...

Answer 3

Africa is full of tyrants.  It seems that saying holds true for Africa's leaders; "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss."

Answer 4

those of us who get our news from the BBC, rather than Fox News, know he is president of Zimbabwe.

Answer 5

Yes we do.  The more conservative news stations talk about him more than the liberal ones do.

BTW - when is _your_ country going to do something about him?

Answer 6

My parents were in Zaire when he ran the place.  Not the nicest guy.Edit  Edit   sorry.  I was confused.  Mobutu  was Zaire.  I guess that proves your point.

Answer 7

I think I got an email from him, asking to use my bank account to transfer $10 million U.S. dollars out of Nigeria, but I'm still waiting to hear back...

Answer 8

why do you ask?  are you suggesting that the US act as the world's police force and intervene in Zimbabwe's sovereign affairs?

Answer 9

We have more important things to worry about than Zimbabwe!
