This coup is too late to prevent the destruction of a once-viable country, but better late than never:
Zimbabwe’s military seized power early on Wednesday saying it was targeting “criminals” around President Robert Mugabe, the only ruler the country has known in its 37 years of independence. ...
It was not clear whether the apparent military coup would bring a formal end to Mugabe’s rule; the main goal of the generals appears to be preventing Mugabe’s 52-year-old wife Grace from succeeding him.
Mugabe traded his reputation for fighting against colonial and then white minority rule (when the country was called Rhodesia) to wreck and loot the country, turning it into a basket case.
The local power South Africa never did anything about their horrible neighbor and Mugabe avoided Western R2P (responsibility to protect) action by being remote--far away and inland--and of little strategic interest.
North Korea at one time had trained parts of the Zimbabwe military. It would be nice if the actual North Korean army could do the same thing.
UPDATE: You doubt Zimbabwe is at the corner of No and Where?
Consider that Westerners cared more about Cecil the lion than the misery that Mugabe inflicted on his people.
