Wow, that's a long URL, and you have to subscribe anyway! Some salient quotes: At the state funeral of one of his cabinet ministers, Mr Mugabe said: "I am still the Hitler of the time. This Hitler has only one objective, justice for his own people, sovereignty for his people, recognition of the independence of his people, and their right to their resources. If that is Hitler, then let me be a Hitler tenfold. Ten times, that is what we stand for."

Thanks for letting us know Bob, we'd never have spotted it otherwise.
 
The entire quote. Egad. :rolleyes:

Addressing mourners at the burial of Swithun Mombeshora, the Minister of Higher and Tertiary Education, at the National Heroes’ Acre, Mugabe, who sports a Hitlerite moustache, said:

“I remember when in 1976 we met with the British at the Geneva Conference and at that time the British and their friends were focused on Mugabe and Nkomo.

“I was the Hitler of that time. I am still a Hitler of their time. If Hitler fought for the justice of mankind, many nations would not have fought against him.

“Hitler in Zimbabwe has one objective – sovereignty for his people, recognition of their independence and their rights to freedom. If they say I am Hitler, let me be Hitler ten-fold and that’s what we stand for.”
 
If Hitler fought for the justice of mankind, many nations would not have fought against him.

That's kinda the point, isn't it Mr Mugabe? :confused:
