Dale > Zuma is not a leader for South Africa in the 21st century. He should not be allowed to take us back to an earlier and darker age.

I suppose Mugabe is an appropriate leader? He is certainly supported by the majority of the African elite, including Mbeki, who also like to blame the whites of previous governments for the corruption and incompetence of their administrations.

>>President Mugabe drew applause at a United Nations conference on hunger yesterday when he said Britain and the United States were to blame for his country's economic collapse.

In a diversion from his scripted speech at the World Food Day event organised by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation, Mr Mugabe called Tony Blair and George W Bush "the unholy alliance of the millennium".

He then compared the two world leaders to Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini and accused them of interfering in the domestic affairs of countries such as his own.

Mr Mugabe made his attack after a speech in which he patted himself on the back for the "long overdue" land reforms started five years ago in which land was forcibly taken from white farmers.<
