Mugabe says U.N. Envoy said "nasty " things

Robert Mugabe called a U.N. envoy a "Hypocrite and a Liar" after the envoy said the humanitarian situation in Zimbabwe was near a meltdown.

CNN story

For a head of state I must admit Mugabe does do some interesting public insulting. Even the Norwegian envoy's english takes a hit.

But seriously, how completely is this guy willing to destroy his country? The farms weren't enough, so he has to go after the cities now? I have a sick feeling that Zimbabwe is working itself up to some truly horrific tragedy. If Zimbabwe goes up in flames, will any of it's neighbors go up with it?
