ZIMBABWE! SOMEBODY CARES FOR YOU!
I care! If i had power , i would aid you. save you. you are not just a story to me, you are human to me and i would save you.
mugabe is a vampire, he feeds from the blood ,body and flesh of his people and his land.
maybe the world thinks that it is okay for Zimbabwe to burn,die and fester, they say ” no oil, no incentive” , i do not feel that way. He has been steadily building to this point since 1980. he was in ian smiths government a trained guerilla fighter, he has never lost his hardened edge, he has slain people in their thousands and this is not recently many cases were in the 1980’s and they were black. thus not newsworthy. How can we sit back and watch, when women , children and men are abused in such a fashion. It grieves me, to see in the papers the swollen beaten bodies the brutality. we cannot turn away from it.
now the flux people get themselves into when they start thinking about Zimbabwe is one of simplistic racial slurs. they see a maniacal black man killing white farmers ( read the news). but it is more than that.
lets start in the 1880’s just a short century before independence in Zimbabwe. the british decide that, crushing people in the british isles is not enough, southern africa sounds nice to them. so they build upon the exeperiance that they have had in west, and south africa . they meet with fierce opposition but eventually overcome and suppress the indeigenous people. the indigenous people are throw off of their ancestral homesteads, in favor of english styles farming and serfdom (yes i know what that word means and i feel that it is appropriate .) the indigenous people, like most people who were colonised by the british suffered. the indigenous people were no longer in control of large scale food production and their situation became greatly reduced in society.
relics from the past from great zimbabwe were taken as proof of a lostt white civilisation, even though most evidence pointed to a shona past. to cover this up myths were hastily written up, about ophir a mystical city of gold, solomon and sheba’s love nest, solomon’s salt mines, lebenese ship builders etecetera. even in the passing years of ian smith’s governement and carbon dating, artifacts were tested and re-tested .
so when finally a black man came to the helm in zimbabwe there may have been a sense of relief, from all the colonial bullshit. but no he was just a new terror to endure, Zimbabwe has endured his massacres and terror for too many years.
It is not just a case of a crazy black man, it is simply a case of a man who, is evil to his very centre. how can we the world stand by and let this country perish ! I have seen the pictures old women and men, pregnant women, even children beaten. his goons urinating on opposition supporters.
God I pray for you tonight ZIMBABWE! that your suffering may not be long.
