A Chinese ship carrying arms to Zimbabwe that was turned away from South Africa is heading to Angola in hopes of docking there, the transport minister of Mozambique said yesterday.

The ship left South African waters on Friday after a court refused to allow the weapons to be transported across South Africa, SAPA news agency said.

Mozambique's transport and communications minister, Paulo Zucula, told Reuters Mozambique has been monitoring the movements of the ship since it left South Africa.

Barry Artiste, I like this story. It's good stuff. Keep tracking that ship's cargo, all the way to Luanda, on to Harare and then into the backs of Mugabe's opposition.

It certainly looks like countries are vying to assist both sides in this conflict with the winner to get billions in foreign aid, of which we all know the majority of the aid money will go to prop up their armies, with lots of aid money left over to support what ever corrupt despots swiss bank account and his friends in government while it citizens will be left sucking wind, yep thats pretty much how I see it.

Thanks for the comments and GS Flag Mike
