Zimbabwe & Burma

Well, Zimbabwe is once again on the brink. The so-called Justice Minister was quoted on the BBC as saying that the opposition will not be allowed to win. What continues to blows me away is how come Thabo Mbeki is staying silent. Do people truly matter? I guess not. Whenever you have dictators who only think about themselves, the ordinary folks get lost in the shuffle.

As for Burma, this is another sad story. We, as a community of nations, are to blame for Burma's misery. Thang Swawe and Robert Mugabe are not...they are smart enough to exploit our weakness as a community. It is sad when John Holmes of the UN has to beg for relief supplies to get in. What a sad testimony to our predicament as a world.....
