Isn’t it about time that the international communities took a stand against Robert Mugabe? The so called ‘election’ that is about to take place in Zimbabwe is a complete farce. The results of punishment beatings and killings have now even been witnessed and reported by independent sources within the country.

Why is nothing actively being done to bring this despot to justice? Isn’t it damning on Western Society that we have not raised more than a whimper over this issue? Strange how when oil was involved there was no procrastination or hand wringing as to whether there should any response.

What about freedom of choice Mssrs Bush and Brown? What about human rights? What does this man have to do to the people who oppose him for there to be a cohesive, effective response to the mutilations and the murders of innocents that is taking place?

I won’t be holding my breath for a response!
