Mr Bush, Mr Blair and now Mr Brown's sense of human rights precludes our people's right to their God-given resources, which in their view must be controlled by their kith and kin. I am termed dictator because I have rejected this supremacist view and frustrated the neo-colonialists.

Clearly the history of the struggle for our national and people's rights is unknown to the president of the United states of America. He thinks the declaration of Human rights starts with his term in office !

He thinks she can introduce to us , who bore the brunt of fighting for the freedoms of our peoples, the virtues of the Universal Declaration of Human rights. What rank Hypocrisy !

I lost 11 precious years  of my life in jail of a white man whose freedom and well-being I have assured from the first day of Zimbabwe's independence. I lost a further 15 years fighting white injustice in my country.

Ian Smith is responsible for the death of well over 50,000 of my people. I bear scars of tyranny which Britain and America condoned. I meet his victims everyday. Yet he walks free. He farms free. He talks freely, associates freely under a black government. We taught him democracy. We gave him back his humanity.

He would have faced a different fate here (in the US) and in Europe if the 50,000 he killed were Europeans. Africa has not called for a Nuremberg trial against the white world which committed heinous crimes against its own humanity. It has not hunted perpetrators of this genocide , many of whom live up to this day , nor has it got reparations from those who offended against it. Instead, it is Africa which is in the dock, facing trial from the same world  that persecuted it for centuries.


The colonial sun set a long time ago, in 1980 in the case of Zimbabwe , and hence Zimbabwe will never be  a colony again, NEVER !

We do not deserve sanctions. We are Zimbabweans and we know how to deal with our problems. We have done so in the past, well before Bush and Brown were known politically. We have our own regional and continental organizations and communities.

Write, call Obama 202 456 1414. Please lift the sanctions on poor Zimbabwe!
