recipe for overcoming postcolonial guilt

Of the numerous military intervention strategies that exist for the
ethical and morally justifiable removal of the junta in Zimbabwe, only two
options are tactically feasible, politically correct and need no further
public interrogation.

The first option would involve the use of a private army. It offers
plausible deniability to any supportive government in the event of
collateral damage and civilians casualties. This option also allows for
countries with post-colonial guilt to render indirect lethal and non-lethal
assistance from a distance. This urgent intervention is a moral imperative
and will confound all cynics who subscribe to the notion that Western
countries only intervene when their economic interests are threatened.

The second option is a direct military intervention in Zimbabwe to
restore democracy and save innocent lives under the auspices of the African
Union (AU), the United Nations (UN), the European Union (EU), the Southern
African Development Community (SADC) and the Commonwealth.
