Seriously!!

I'm not one for conspiracy theories but this is just too obvious.

Robert Gabriel Mugabe (born 21 February 1924) is the President of Zimbabwe. He has held power as the head of government since 1980, as Prime Minister from 1980 to 1987, and as the first executive head of state since 1987.[1] Mugabe rose to prominence in the 1960s as a Zimbabwe African National Union leader in guerilla warfare against white-minority rule in Rhodesia in the Bush War (1964–1979). Emerging from this conflict, Mugabe was hailed by many Africans as a hero.[2][3]

Since 1998 Mugabe's policies have increasingly elicited protest, both domestic and international. Mugabe's government supported the Southern African Development Community's intervention in the Second Congo War; redistributed thousands of white-owned farms;[4] and, in response to the Zimbabwe Democracy and Economic Recovery Act of 2001, printed hundreds of trillions of Zimbabwean dollars, triggering hyperinflation;[5] and harassed and intimidated such political opponents as the Movement for Democratic Change.[6] Zimbabwe's economy spiraled downward,[7] accompanied by oil and food shortages[8], massive internal displacement[9] and emigration.[10][11] In July 2008, the Group of Eight released a collective statement saying that they "do not accept the legitimacy of a government that does not reflect the will of the Zimbabwean people".[12]

On September 15, 2008, a power-sharing agreement brokered by South African President Thabo Mbeki was signed. As provided in the deal, Mugabe will be recognized as President, Morgan Tsvangirai will become Prime Minister,[13] the MDC will control the Republic Police, Mugabe’s Zimbabwe African National Union - Patriotic Front will command the Army, and Arthur Mutambara will become Deputy Prime Minister.[14][15]


And now Morgan Tsvangirai nearly died in an "Accident" with a US aid agency partner organisation truck on its way to deliver AIDs medicine. Wow
