pointless

you are a dictator.
you are less than complimentary about the british. in fact you see the british as one of the root causes for the position you are in.
you have no problems being and killing the citizens of your country.
you have even less trouble beating up your political opponents.
for all intents and purposes you are king of all you survey.

hold on a minute. a dastardly counter attack has been launched at you by a fearless british mp, nigel griffiths. what mr griffiths wants to do is hit robert mugabe of zimbabwe where it hurts – yes there is a motion being put forward to withdraw the honorary degree that mugabe was given by edinburgh university to the zimbabwean president for “services to africa”’. not only does he want it withdrawn, he wants it done swiftly.
what is the rush, dude, its not like mugabe has been a nice chap the last couple of years, it would be churlish to ask how they have missed mugabe’s attacks on farmers, politicians, anyone he didn’t like the look of.

ooh you can see mugabe shaking in his boots over the loss of the honorary degree (i bet he can’t even find it…)

now i know you think i am being a sarcastic here, but i am not. i think it sends just the right message to mugabe. the message is. “if you don’t clean up your act next time we are coming for you’re a-levels…..

gesture politics is such wank it is not true.
