So what does that say about them, if true?

You must really be an out-and-out Marxist if you seriously believe the ordinary Zimbabwean is better off under Mugabe's murderous tyranny than they were under 'colonial exploitation'.

However, the idea of 'invading' is ridiculous. Zimbabwe is none of our business now.
