Hi Hamadi,

I've always taken Mugabe's side on this issue. The Blacks were forcibly
removed from those lands by whites because they possessed superior weapons.
Plain, daylight armed robbery! Today, they talk about the rule of law. Give
me back what is mine, then we can begin to talk about the rule of law.
History didn't begin when Mugabe with the backing "veterans" decided to
take back what is theirs. That which is not just cannot law. (Reminds of
the stories of "bukki" and "nyobhor" narrated to kids back home).

Now that they've had an easy ride in Afghanistan they are wont to unleash
even more terror in the Middle East in their this crusade. Some of their
strategist must be thinking of "a final solution". Now Israel has a free
hand with the Palestinians, the origins of whose predicament are "Western",
read (cowboy).

Regards,

Kabir.

Kabir,

It is evident that there is a lot of double-standards in international
relations.  That the US government would turn a blind eye to the continuing
occupation of Palestinian lands by the Jewish state, to the weekly
beheadings of common criminals in Saudi Arabia and the total disregard for
women's rights, and all the other countless number of countries that play
second fiddle to human rights, is an indication of the inequality that
governs inter-state relations.

Hamadi.
