Zimbabweans find refuge in S Africa embassy - 25 Jun 08

As Morgan Tsvangirai, the leader of the opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), finds refuge in the Dutch embassy in Zimbabwe, about 200 Zimbabweans have taken refuge at the South African Embassy in Harare.

They say they are victims of persecution by supporters of Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe because they voted for the opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) in the first round of the presidential vote.

The commutator claims that the people in the Church are fleeing oppression . but he does not mention the fact that Sanctions imposed at the request of the IMPEAALIST STOOGE, TSVANGRAI. has caused thousands to lose their jobs , and TSVANGRAI the Imperialist Stooge call even for more harsher Sanctions so as the ordinary ZIMBABAWEAN suffer more and eventually depose Mr Mugabe ,so he then can take power on behalf of his Imperialist Paymasters. Zimbabaweans must defend their Independence.

Well, I have NO IDEA what your personal complaint is with other countries not accepting you, you may want to take a look at your anger issue?? NEVERTHELESS... Everyone DESERVES the RIGHT to live without fear, without hunger, without prejudice, without discrimination and in a FAIR and SAFE democratic society that is governed by the same.

I'm an AMERICAN by the way.. :o) It's ONLY the CHARACTER of an individual that is important, NOTHING ELSE.

Normally I try to be more tactful when I respond, but his comment was just the oddest mix of racist, anti-liberal, anti-communist conspiracy theory mumbo jumbo that I couldn't even really understand what his point was. Honestly; "black rule Marxists"? "White liberal pablum"? Honestly?

Wow... It's ignorance as yours that oppresses... This issue is clearly about the people of Zimbabwe deserving and demanding that a government be governed BY THE PEOPLE... The people of Zimbabwe... That is both light and dark skinned...
