Zimbabwe conspiracy

Is there any chance that the tobacco companies are in some way responsible for the situation in Zimbabwe? It seems rather strange that the collapse of the tobacco industry in Zimbabwe coincided with the international change in smoking and tobacco legislation. There are some interesting reports that are commonly accessible that show the correlation, but is there proof?

Mugabe has money, a lot more than what he is able to extract from the increasingly deprived citizens of this once magnificent country. There must surely be some external finance coming through for this leader that has much blood on his hands.

Is there any chance of a conspiracy that includes the sponsoring of Bob's regime by these companies if he managed to destroy the industry?
