"HARARE, Zimbabwe - President Robert Mugabe's government has attacked the suspense thriller "The Interpreter," starring Nicole Kidman, claiming it is part of a propaganda campaign by the CIA that shows "Zimbabwe's enemies did not rest." "

""Zuwanie and the fictional country he leads have been interpreted as caricatures of Mugabe and Zimbabwe.

"The film just shows how careful we have to be and that we should know our enemy is very powerful," Chimutengwende said. "We should plan to counter Euro-American imperialism. Our enemies have resources and are determined to wage their war on the economic, social and cultural fronts."

Zimbabwe has become an international outcast in recent years because of repression and economic mismanagement by Mugabe's regime. The government claims Western sanctions and boycotts are to blame for the country's looming financial collapse.""


ROFLMAO!! I love it! Blame the sanctions, not the activity which caused them! This guy needs to hang out with Kim Jong Il and his supporters here. They could have one heluva party!

Come on, B0zzy...how is this guy supposed to oppress people with style if he doesn't have a lot of money to do it with? ;)

I saw that movie. To be perfectly honest, Mbato can easily refer to any African country. Of course, Mugabe has to realize that if it was CIA propaganda, it wasn't good. It dived in the box office.

See, now I'm actually gonna have to watch that movie, if only to laugh at the dictator in the movie.

I don't make coments on Nationstates about world leaders in real life and I'm not about to change that by talking about an arrogant little shite like him
