Only a few weeks ago, I did a blog entry on how the BAE-Saudi bribery scandal was getting worse.

Just how much worse? Well, now we have the Financial Times reporting linking the armaments maker to a company linked to a Zimbabwean arms trader connected to Zimbabwe's despot Robert Mugabe.

The FT says this raises questions about BAE's dealings with outside intermediaries who sometimes act as brokers in arms deals.

Good point, but it raises even more serious questions about this company's ethical standards.

I am Zimbabwean living in England and I used to live in Harare, I must say that my country has been ruined by world's biggest terrorist which is Mugabe, look at the exchange rate, poverty, economic conditions of Zimbabwe. When I think about it my heart really goes, I wonder why Mugabe does not let citizens of Zimbabwe decide the future of the country and also Mugabe must realize that he is in power since last 30 years his mind is getting old and he cannot think the same as young generation can think, so he must resign for the better of Zimbabweans. Thank you
