Of the highest order. Greeted into power as a Liberator by the international community, he has single handedly turned Zimbabwe into an absolute hellhole. Once the Breadbasket of Africa, now the Basketcase of Africa. A good percentage of the street hookers in neighbouring Sth Africa are now Zimbabwean, and there have recently been riots there because of the influx of Zim refugees, and the competition for menial jobs that comes with it.
Does anyone have a single good thing to say about this bloke?
Anyway, voted out in the last 'elections'- in spite of the blatant intimidation campaign and electoral fraud carried out by his Goons, the Zanu PF. He's called 'Presidential run-off' elections, and the predictable Terror campaign against Opposition politicians and supporters is underway-
Zimbabwe detains opposition leaders
The standard-bearer for Zimbabwe's opposition was twice detained by the police on Thursday, and one of his most important deputies was arrested to face treason charges. The events underscored the daunting obstacles to campaigning against President Robert Mugabe in the two weeks before a presidential runoff.
The opposition presidential candidate, Morgan Tsvangirai, who was detained twice last week, was held up by the police twice more on Thursday in what was supposed to have been a day of rallies and campaigning, his party said.
The arrest of the deputy, Tendai Biti, was even more chilling for the party, the Movement for Democratic Change. Biti, the party's secretary general, was swiftly apprehended at Harare's airport on Thursday as he returned from South Africa after a self-imposed absence of two months. He will be charged with treason, a police spokesman said...
Since Tsvangirai returned to campaign in Zimbabwe, his party's rallies have frequently been canceled by the authorities, and party officials say Mugabe appears determined to hang onto power through violence, intimidation and obstruction of a functioning democracy."

I'm no fan of the Burmese junta, but if you ask me the international community should keep them on the backburner until this arsehole is kicked out, and preferably dead.
