Section ZZ9 Plural Z Alpha

Imagine this. You are a tyrannical dictator of a rapidly deteriorating nation. The country is in ruins, malcontent is high, but you continue to rule with an iron fist. Your despotism and oppressive ways have drawn severe criticism from the international media who paint a grim picture of your reign, stopping just short of equating you to Adolf Hitler. What do you do to improve your image?

Answer: If you are Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe, you go ahead and grow yourself a cute little toothbrush moustache.

To borrow a phrase from Zaphod Beeblebrox in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, "ten out of ten for style, Mr. Mugabe, but minus several million for good thinking, yeah?"

He sucks, look what he has done to zimbabwe's cricket team. I wonder what has become of people. Why cant they see, what he is doing. This may sound sound kiddish but the word Revolution can only found in history book. It just take few hundred people to revolt. I wish they had lots of oil to get in US.
