WHY is invading Iraq thought to be justifiable while ending genocide in a former British colony unthinkable?
Zimbabwe, led by Robert Mugabe, is murdering and raping its own citizens while the world stands by and does nothing.
The Conservative Gov-ernment not only awarded Mugabe a knighthood but also handed to him independence of one of the most prosperous countries in Africa.
While Mugabe's troops go about killing and raping women and children, while his people are starving, our Government allows our supermarkets to import foodstuff from Zimbabwe, thus helping to fund Mugabe's regime.
Holding a mock election only demonstrates the lack of respect this dictator has for other countries. Hitler and Saddam Hussein were removed but we cannot manage the same of this murdering despot.
Pity there is no oil in Zimbabwe; George W. Bush would have been in there pronto.
By the way, is the ban on Zimbabwe's cricket team the best the Government can come up with?
