Comment in question

LAS, 
 
For salsa, Mr, James' provocative commentary would have been enhanced by a global perspective which might illuminate his thesis with even greater clarity.  
 
For example, perhaps one of the most contentious debates centers around a country of 11 million people the size of California. Its president since "independence" is Robert Gabriel Mugabe, an attorney, who is being demonized not only by the United States and Great Britain but by fellow Africans. As a colony, Rhodesia, as it was called, had a human rights profile topping that of South Africa, according to human rights activists. And on a tour of the region in the 80s, ultra cautious Louis Armstrong, in observing the racism in Rhodesia, let out a yelp heard around the world. 
 
So what an irony that Mr. Mugabe finds himself the centerpiece of oprobrium by former allies. So when it comes to money, some say, all bets are off, as Mr. Mugabe is now finding. 
 
So Mr. James might look internationally for support .
