An article in the NYT on the new bonds being forged with China by Zimbabwe's megalomaniacal dictator Robert Mugabe contains many things to give us pause. Remember those farms confiscated from white farmers that were supposed to go to the "people"? Well, "...China won a contract last year to farm 386 square miles of land seized from white commercial farmers during the land-confiscation program begun by Mr. Mugabe in 2000"
And even better: " Atop the list is a plan for China to train Zimbabweans in managing prisons.
"They have a fairly advanced prison system," Zimbabwe's justice minister, Patrick Chinamasa, told reporters. "We would also want to tap into that expertise."
