re: au stand on zimbabwe /mugabe says...
unfortunately it appears that Mugabe has really lost the plot.
It is not that long ago he was one of the shining lights in Africa, now.....
The African Union has proved to be innefectual and a lot of wonderful people are suffering (and will continue too) because this guy has gone senile and no one gives a hoot.
We have been here before and every time we get off our fat bum its too late.
If any one thinks the west gives a hoot you miss the point. The western world does not give a hoot.
eg Swaziland now has more people with aids than dont have it-- no action, we dont want to give medicine away..
6000+ people die a year in Chines coal mines (forget the political issues) West just wants to capitalise on a growth market.
Iraq.....
DRC....
Nigeria....just give us the oil
Tsunami....yeah right well hand the money over...where are the billions???
Rawanda....no it hasnt stopped
I really cant be bothered keeping going, you should get the point....we talk the talk, but wont do the walk...
