Action Alert: Petition - Request for United Nations Intervention in Zimbabwe
The print edition of the South African Mail and Guardian has called attention to an online petition against Robert Mugabe and has asked all its readers to sign it. It looks like signatures have been slow to start so please help to circulate this information widely, and sign it, of course!
The online petition can be found here at The Petition Site. The full url is: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/290921785.
The purpose of the petition is
To compel the United Nations Security Council to pass resolutions imposing economic sanctions on Zimbabwe and establisbing an International Tribunal for Crimes Against Humanity in Zimbabwe. Perpetrators of these crimes should be apprehended and then prosecuted.
The petition will be handed to Koffi Annan, the United Nations’ Secretary General.

I think that was tried on behalf of the Sudanese … the UN is now involved, but Arab militias are still killing people.
Don’t expect anything useful from the UN.

Quite often organizations look at all types of attrocities and debate. By the time they realize they are fubling the ball, many have died or so dejected that all hope has been lost for help to make any difference. So I realy hope that some action will be done on and about Zimbabwe early so as to save lives and stock. It will be hard to rebuild this nation as it tumbles down the misery lane as did most of Africa before, There seems to be no future with Mugabe and his regime. PLease look at Uganda, Congo, and Liberia to figure what corruption and dictatorship can do to a country.
