Do you think that the sovereignty of failed states, such as Zimbabwe, should be respected?

Question

How about a case of possible genocide and floods of refugees into SA? Considering that the A.N.C. Rejects Outside Pressure on Zimbabwe, the trouble is too close to be ignored.

Your thoughts;-)

Answer 1

Sovereignty should ALWAYS be respected, it is not your job to police the world.

Answer 2

What more pressure can they apply?

The only thing left is a military invasion.

Military invasion will just result in more death's.

Negotiations is the way to go.

And if Zim is attacked then who will rebuilt the country?

SA does not have the money, skills and time to rebuilt Zim.

And it will bring instability in the region.

Answer 3

It is a tough one. The sovereignty of all states should be respected however, the world also can not sit and watch how innocent people gets murdered and slaughtered. The ANC to-date have been turning a blind eye and that in my book make them just a guilty as the Mugabe regime. The security council should adopt a resolution and remove Mugabe by force and he should be on trail for all the things he did. It was done in Iraq and therefore why not in Zimbabwe.

Answer 4

Not while their president is a murdering dictator.

Answer 5

I didn't know they failed! We must send FEMA to help them with the floods!!

Answer 6

well do they have any oil?

Answer 7

No, and neither should South Africa's sovereignty be respected with the bunch of morons in charge now.
