In these pressing times, the magnanimous United States has decided to celebrate the holiday season by imposing some new sanctions against Zimbabwe. This vid explains the long history of Zimbabwean debt to western powers.

P.S. It’s so difficult to find more information about this because literally no one is reporting on it. This press release from the US Treasury is all I got.

    That explains a lot — a hell of a lot. I was aware of Zimbabwe’s notorious hyperinflation before but I was never able to explain in detail how exactly capitalism caused it. Even the alternative media that I consult (like FAIR) have rarely mentioned the sanctions that white capitalists imposed on Zimbabwe, but they’re crucial to understanding its dilapidation today. Thank you for sharing this; I’ll let some of my friends know about it.
