I've been following the situation in Zimbabwe since the pre-election violence earlier this year. It's only gotten worse. I'm saddened by the lack of food and clean water, sickness caused by the cholera epidemic, and killing sanctioned by Mugabe.

Based on these articles, it seems to me that Zimbabwe's healthcare system, government, and military are all on the verge of collapse (if they haven't yet collapsed). I think it's only a matter of time until complete chaos breaks out, at which point Mugabe will fall from power.
