Zimbabwe in its first decade of freedom, flourished under the regime of Mugabe, it was referred as the haven of peace, stability, economic and social progress in Africa. But now the picture projects a different story, the economy is in tatters, people starving, dying but this hardly had any effect on the President's sumptuous feast.

Mugabe who was once the nation's idol has taken in the role of a tyrant, he knows his position is not strong among the masses hence he is trying a different strategy to put down roots in the years to come and in here, he is targeting the children in his political noose.

In order to inculcate their party's ideologies in young and impressionable minds, the high profile political people have come up with a program called, 'Operation Catch Them Young'. It involves dressing up of the little ones in green uniforms and instructing them to chant slogans of hailing the President and his party, like that of fanatical corps!

Second point in their agenda is to crackdown on students whom they consider as a threat due to their opposing viewpoints. Thirdly, they are also trying to influence women to form a Zanu-PF Young Women's League. The Zanu-PF officials are of the view that it would 'safeguard their sovereignty'.

Hmm'so the high officials are safeguarding their sovereignty at the cost of innocent populace or I must put it this way, they are actually brainwashing their impressionable minds' A strategy, which was long ago adopted by Adolf Hitler in Germany. He (Hitler) tried to win the confidence of the Weimar Republic by formally adhering to their rules and regulations and when the ball was in his court, that is, when he legally gained control, he morphed liberal democracy into a Nazi dictatorship and used widespread propaganda to brainwash the nation into believing his theory about creating the perfect Aryan or nordic race.

Running on the similar tracks, Mugabe too has already initiated a kind of despotic atmosphere in the region but he must not forget the end of Hitler, who ruined himself in his self created web. Minds of children are impressionable, they are oblivious to the ethical paradigms and hence will mold accordingly. Mugabe too has comprehended this and has applied it like a latent weapon. But he must not forget that the storming of Bastille was the outcome of despotism, which the people were experiencing since long and finally gave vent to their feelings all of a sudden and that, even the repressing party couldn't hold off.

It's the right moment we must start making some noise otherwise the time is not far when the country will meet the same fate as that of Nazi Germany in the early 1940s.
