I'm not sure which to fear more - finding out about the 5000 who are unaccounted for (who won't be news by the time they are found), or finding out what happens next to trade unionists and anyone else they imagine to be enemies bent on recolonising the country. Can you make the stuff about the trade unions a bit more visible? The AU and the world need to see that this is happening now. Today we only see the present, but in a few days or weeks we will look back at today and wonder why we didn't know more or do more. Take a look at Tendai Biti's analysis of the situation - it could be out of control already and someone needs to be calling for detailed intervention now: http://www.thestar.co.za/?fSectionId=&fArticleId=vn20080629111849540C546722<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('252173','Mike'); return false;">Reply to this comment</a> --- <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('252173','Mike','There was a lot more to that post than it seemed from the visible bit.
