Title deeds to all productive land (meaning land run by Whites who can actually make something grow on it, rather than the blacks who could be handed a lush farm and would manage to turn it into a desert) will be canceled and replaced with a 99 year state issued leases. This was reported in the state run Herald newspaper.
“In the end all land shall be state land and there shall be no such thing as private land,” Land Reform Minister John Nkomo said.
Since 2000, the government has been brutally stealing farms from White farmers. Many cases of murder and rape have been ignored by mainstream media.

Zimbabwe, was once a regional breadbasket, it now suffers shortages of food, hard currency, gasoline and other imports. United Nations crop forecasters predict the country will produce only half its food needs this year.
Mugabe, argues redistribution is needed to redress British colonial injustices, when much of the best farmland was settled by whites.
What Mugabe fails to see is that without Whites the land will turn back to the jungle it was before Europeans claimed it and made the mistake of using blacks from neighboring areas for help.
About 200,000 black families have been allocated land under the government program. Ask anyone who has visited the area. One friend who recently made a business trip there was quoted as saying “it’s a mad house, a horror show of things to come, you will see hospitals abandoned, with million dollar equipment sitting there unmanned with grass growing through the floor, because the people who know how to run it have been murdered or ran off. High-rise office buildings are abandoned with squatters living inside making fires in the buildings. Farms who have been taken by the murdering mobs are often destroyed by the blacks who killed the White farmers, eating the livestock and destroying equipment.”
Nkomo said that the government did not intend to “waste time and money” in disputes with farmers whose land had been seized, regardless of what legal documents they held.
“Ultimately all land shall be resettled as state property,” he said.
While the government blames poor production on lack financial resources, seed, fertilizer, fuel and farm machinery. This is simply untrue. The genetic material left to tend the farms is nor sufficient, it never has been in thousands of years, and stealing what Whites have built today wont change that a bit.
You are suppose to love the poor oppressed creatures and only say nice things about them.
We need to send money to Africa to feed them and medically care for them. True this will help them to better kill each other (and kill the white minority) but that is not our concern - we must do what we can to help them no matter how much this is wasted.
Thank God for the UN and shame on you for telling the truth. You need to think less in terms of the truth, and think more in politically correct terms, you racist you! Racists always think in terms of the truth, which is one way to identify a racist.
I am impressed, but you are one hell of an instigator! Followed some of your comments on another thread. LOL
What gets me is comments that we were stingy with tsunami contributions. Yet, when we had all the hurricanes in Fla., etc. with damages in what I seem to remember were in the $billions, who the hell sent us money and/or assistance?
