Zimbabwe never had a war of independence against Great Britain. Independence was declared unilaterally in the 60's, by the country's white minority government. Mugabe fought in the Bush War to put Zimbabwe under majority black rule, not to make the country independent--it was already independent when he took power.

@@redshuttleredacted6422 right on. Africans do need to take example from European countries. Unfortunately, those European countries themselves depend on the corruption going on in Africa to survive. Anytime African leaders attempt to radically change things (cough cough Ghadaffi cough cough Sankara cough cough) they end up getting killed or removed from power. There is no clear proof, but we all know that the orchestrators of those murders are Europeans. So truly, it’s European’s fault, not ours. Or maybe we share the fault.

I'm Zimbabwean, YOU ARE WRONG. Grace is not mostly disliked because of her "shopping habits". She is disliked because she assumed she must be a successor and over estimated her political capital. You are most probably right in that corruption will continue but this video neglects the bi-partisanship shown in all this. Take today (18/11/2017) for example. A rally was held against RG Mugabe by war veterans and it was attended by a mix of people. You have over simplified the issue. Zimbabweans are not stupid. We still expect to go to elections next year and vote out people we KNOW are corrupt. We are also grateful for the work that has been done by the military and the organisers of this. This may not be tge most optimal conditions but it is NECESSARY.

There was a brief reversion to being a colony in 1980 before Rhodesia became Zimbabwe with a universal franchise vote.

Kind of a bold statement for a country that receives as much foreign aid as Zimbabwe, don't you think? The West is going to keep intervening in the internal affairs of impoverished nations under the guise of providing them aid, which anyway goes towards lining the pockets of the rich, thus increasing the inequality discussed in the video. Again, I am in no way saying that Western intervention is good, just that it's imminent in the face of receiving huge amounts of foreign aid. What's worse than the intervention though is the fact the money does not even actually reach those who need it the most. Is there no way the people can lobby for greater transparency from the government? Pressure from the international community can actually be a great way to achieve that.

This is a very interesting question - not just with Zimbabwe, but worldwide. I believe it is because being involved in politics is always voluntary... you choose to be involved. You choose to run for president. The issue with this is, like Jerry Seinfield said, "Anyone who thinks they can be the president is insane. Leader of the free world? Yeah, that sounds like me. The one with the finger on the button, making all the choices for millions of people? Yep. There is absolutely nobody better than me." I believe truly that, anyone who is running for power WANTS power. This could mean they have anything from a little bit of an ego to being massively corrupt, House of Cards-style. Power-hungry people are going to flock to where there is the most power available... and who has more power than political leaders?

Vox: Please learn the difference between a tank and an armored personnel carrier. As a South African, I have been following the situation carefully, and I have yet to see any footage of tanks in Harare. Lot of APCs, but no tanks.

Meanwhile in Zambia: Those white farmers Mugabe harassed and expelled a few year back have produced 3,3 million tonnes of maize, the highest production in Zambia's history, while Zimbabwe starves, can't pay its military or keep deadlines for debt repayments. Racism rarely works out in the long run.

Busybody Sidekick Or maybe when you kick out a bunch of farmers to go to another country that also focuses on agriculture, you would think there would be a rise in crops grown and sold. Stop acting like the world needs white people. What the world needs is leaders who aren’t corrupt and want to help others and each other, both white, black, and any other color. And I’m pretty sure zeezhz was trying to say racism of any kind brings down a country. Take your ignorance somewhere else.

bob Marleey the white Zimbabwens were born in Zimbabwe, that is their country, their homeland. why don't you and o ther black Africans move back to the Great Rift Valley instead of spreading out over the whole of the continent? That makes as much sense. Like it or not there are white Africans and expelling them from their home is wrong. The blacks born in the USA are not Africans, nor are the blacks born in Jamaica, Haiti, Brasil, or elsewhere in the Americas. But whites born in Africa are African. So are the blacks born in Africa. Stop being racist or you will succomb to hate, and your own hate will be your own undoing.

Here in India, the newspapers completely omitted the military action part. It stated that there was widespread public anger over Robert Mugabe planning to make his wife Grace as the next president instead of Mnangagwa, so he was forced to resign & expelled from his own party the ZANU-PF under public pressure & Mnangagwa took over power with popular support. I also remember the newspaper bearing a photo of an anti-Grace demonstration with a placard where it was written in English - 'Leadership is not transmitted sexually'.
