Mugabe will just murder strong opposition. He is an evil, wretched, rotten soul and the only solution is to snuff him out and make it look like a natural death. The only problem with that is that one of his minions will step up to the mark and fill his boots. That's why politicians talk about regime change not just bumping someone off. So although on a personal level I can totally sympathise with the desire to see his brains forcibly removed from his skull by a large caliber sniper round in front of TV cameras, it wouldn't solve the overall problem.

I personally wouldn't have a problem with a dictator so long as they could provide for their people and ruled fairly, even if their ascension to power wasn't democratic. Sometimes it's actually BETTER for a nation to have that sort of strong, single-minded leadership. But Mugabe's proven that he's ineffective, a terrible people manager and downright corrupt and murderous.
