I was schocked to find this article cause in my heart I wanted to believe that they were now living peacefully on their farms. It just makes me so angry..and I am travelling to Africa in a few days for the first time. Not to a tourist destination, not as a help organisation worker..but as a wife to an african..so I will experience the real life there as well as a white woman. I have heard stories but I dont want to believe my life or my childs life could be in danger. I am not religious in any way but in this case I do pray that all the people / farmers, regardless to their skin colour, will have a chance to live on the propeties they own, as they intented when purchasing the piece of land. I pray that one day all those greedy people would look into the mirror and feel ashamed.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('275129','Sari'); return false;">Reply to this comment</a> --- <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('275129','Sari','I just finished watching the document about Mikes and Bens heroic prestation back in 2008.

Quoting samaitaJust like we forgave the rhodisian thugs in 1980.

I reckon many, if not most, of the “Rhodesian thugs” – as you call them, left the country. Deep down I suspect there was very little forgiveness from the new regime of mugabe.

That would be a great achievement if zanu-pf thugs did the same now!

Only when the message is unequivocally “no matter how long it takes, ALL the guilty will be pursued and brought to justice, and their ill-gotten wealth confiscated,” will ZANU(PF) thugs think twice before continuing these attacks.

I had to close the page and after half an hour I am back. What I do know is things are changing in Zim. Fundamental changes that are happening slowly, and they are for the good. If the change continues, albeit even slowly, law will return. Freedom of the press and free expression will return. These are things that can not be silenced forever!!! Zanu PF is getting tired, their reign will end. Organisations such as this publication offer hope - because we will not forget who has done damage, and as long as it is not forgotten one day justice will happen.
