Mugabe pledges rapid land reform. Zimbabwe’s President Mugabe is sworn in for a new six-year term,
promising to speed up his controversial land reform programme. [BBC News: world]

Since attempts to defeat Mugabe through what passes for a democratic process in Zimbabwe have failed, the farmers there are doomed to lose everything. I think the best they can do now is follow the example of the marijuana legalization advocates who were murdered by the US last year. They should destroy all the buildings and equipment on their property, salt their fields, and then leave the country with as much of their wealth as they can manage. Don’t leave anything behind to fall into the hands of the communists.
