Robert Mugabe - denies public access to baby oil

US Navy SEALS were poised for action today as rumours of oil reserves in Zimbabwe came to light.

Robert Mugabe, self appointed president of Zimbabwe was over heard at his recent visit to say he had plenty of oil.

President Bush has so far been content to observe the human rights abuses in Zimbabwe, stating that they need to sort out their own differences. However the mere sniff of oil has enabled him to spring into action and defend the zimbabwean peoples right to trade their oil with the US.

Following a dawn raid it was found that Mr Mugabe has been stock piling Johnsons Baby oil to keep himself shiny looking.

The White House would not comment beyond stating the 'Oil is Oil'.

The funny story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
