Inside a Failed State - Zimbabwe October 2007 Zimbabwe, once one of the most prosperous nations in Africa, now has the lowest life expectancy and highest inflation rate in the world. Life has become an everyday struggle for survival. The supermarkets in Bulawayo are all empty. According to the shopkeeper, the last time they had bread was "a month ago". Filming secretly undercover, journalist Ginny Stein captures the desperation everywhere. "There is no water. Nothing, just nothing", laments 'Tony'. "Children are hungry, everyone is hungry. Our government is a monster". Even if there were things in the shops, most people couldn't afford them. A teacher's monthly salary now buys the equivalent of one MacDonald's family meal. Malnutrition is taking its toll on people's health. "Up to 75% of the people coming in have diarrhea and vomiting", states Dr Thandazani. The fear is that these problems will only get worse. In July, the government forced businesses to half their prices. Now it's proposing to nationalize 51% of all white-owned businesses. "The economy must be in the hands of Zimbabweans", states Ambassador Khaya Moyo. But unsurprisingly, manufacturers and retailers feel they're being made new enemies of the state.

Inside Zimbabwe September 2005 In a bid to destroy the powerbase of his opponents, Robert Mugabe is bulldozing thousands of slums. Secret footage shows the consequences of this policy. A young boy flees the approaching bulldozer. Fire rages all around as house after house is reduced to rubble. These are the images President Mugabe doesn't want to you see. Millions have lost their homes in part of a bizarre national clean up campaign centred on demolishing Zimbabwe's slums. "Yes there is discomfort now, but discomfort in order to get comfort later," states Mugabe. But opponents are unconvinced. They believe the real aim of 'Operation Restore Order' is to destabilise opposition strongholds. "They are trying to move the electorate in the cities into rural areas where it is easy to manipulate or even abuse them," laments Jay Jay Sibanda. He was forced into exile after being arrested and tortured. Now, he's returning to Zimbabwe to secretly film what's happening in his homeland. Many families haven't received food supplies for weeks, supermarkets have nothing in stock and the queue for petrol lasts several days. Ordinary Zimbabweans are faced with a stark choice: exile if they leave or starvation and destitution if they remain.

Democratic Apocalypse - Zimbabwe May 2008 With the second round of voting set for 27th June, anyone known to support the MDC or to have voted against Robert Mugabe is in real physical danger. Violence towards opponents of the ruling Zanu PF government increases every day. Hundreds were beaten while "an estimated 31 people were killed...and tens of thousands intimidated and forced from their homes." Many now seek sanctuary in the MDC's headquarters in Harare; but for the staunchest opponents of the regime there is no safe haven. With their few possessions they flee to neighbouring countries and wait for the violence to end. Tags: Political Violence Zimbabwe Mugabi Zanu PF MDC Journeyman Pictures |

Zimbabwe - 1200 % inflation It's difficult to believe your own eyes, but it is true. Why does the world ignore the plight of these people? Have they written off Africa? Do they feel embarrassed to witness this disgraceful excuse for a democracy? In S.A. we may have to wait another generation before people will accept that Apartheid can no longer be blamed for the present government's inherent lack of ability to plan ahead and govern effectively. As the wheel of history turns, there will come a time when it will no longer be fashionable to blame colonization for Africa's problems. If S.A. follows the same road as Zim (and the early signs are there) there may come a time when black people will allow whites to have a say again in the government of the country. Unfortunately, by then it may already be too late, and countless people will first have to die as the victims of crime and poverty. Some may say that the majority of people in South Africa are now suffering more than they ever did under so-called white rule, but because this suffering is caused by their own people, few are prepared to voice that opinion.

Opposition Leader Pulls Out of Zimbabwe Election SelectPlusOpposition Leader Pulls Out of Zimbabwe ElectionOpposition Leader Pulls Out of Zimbabwe ElectionThe Associated PressOpposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai pulled out of Zimbabwe's violence-wracked presidential runoff, declaring that the election was no longer credible and the loss of life among his supporters was simply too high. (June 23)The presidential runoff in Zimbabwe has been violent and now, the opposition leader says he wants nothing to do with it.Morgan Tsvangari (svahn-gah-REYE) says the election is no longer credible and lists a number of reasons why it has become too dangerous.SOT: Morgan Tsvangari, Opposition Leader: "One, the police have been reduced to be bystanders while ZANU-PF militia commit crimes against humanity, carrying out various acts from rape, torture, murder, arson, abduction and other atrocities. Two, ZANU-PF militia dressed in army regalia have been deployed to spearhead the terror campaign in the rural and urban areas. Armed ZANU-PF youths are waging a terror campaign, and have vowed that the MDC will not rule the country, even if it wins."The withdrawal came as no surprise to African election observers.SOT: Marwick Khumalo, Head of Pan African Parliament Observer Mission: "The announcement by the president of the MDC was not something unexpected. You would actually expect that to happen, particularly considering the fact that the violence was not on the decrease, if anything it was escalating."The country's imformation minister says the vote will go ahead as scheduled in accordance with the Constitution. He says it is an election of the people of Zimbabwe against Britain and America. The government has called Tsvangari a puppet of western powers and has done little to stop the violence.The U.N. Secretary general issued a blunt condemnation of Mugabe's government. And Britain says enough is enough.SOT: Gordon Brown, British Prime Minister: "This is a criminal cabal that is operating and there will be sanctions from the international community unless the violence stops."The announcement means Robert Mugabe has a clear road to stay in power. His 28-year rule has led to criticism from even his loyal allies. They accuse Mugabe of becoming a despot and bankrupting Zimbabwe. ___ ___, The Associated Press Tags: zimbabwe opposition pulls election |

UN Says Fair Vote in Zimbabwe Impossible SelectPlusUN Says Fair Vote in Zimbabwe ImpossibleUN Says Fair Vote in Zimbabwe ImpossibleThe Associated PressOutraged at the turmoil in Zimbabwe, the U.N. Security Council declared that a fair presidential vote is impossible because of the "campaign of violence" waged by President Robert Mugabe's government. (June 24)[Notes:ANCHOR VOICE] Zimbabwe opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai is at the Dutch Embassy in Harare. He went there after pulling out of the country's elections saying he feared for his safety. He says he'll leave - but not until president Robert Mugabe assures him he will be safe.During a Dutch radio interview Tsvangirai said he'll probably be leaving the Embassy Tuesday or Wednesday, but he hesitated when the interviewer asked if he would be safe when he left.Senegal's president says Tsvangirai was running from soldiers when he went to the Embassy. He also released a statement saying there's no guarantee the soldiers won't attack the Embassy.The U-N says what's happening in Zimbabwe makes a fair vote in the upcoming elections impossible.SOT: Ban Ki-moon, United Nations secretary-general: "There has been too much violence, too much intimidation. A vote held in these conditions would lack all legitimacy." Zimbabwe's ambassador to the UN denies there is any state-sanctioned violence.SOT: Boniface Chidyausiku, Zimbabwe ambassador to the UN: "The state organs - the army, the police - are not involved in any form of violence in Zimbabwe." But the UN is condemning the ongoing violence there and the government's denial of it.SOT: Zalmay Khalilzad, current Security Council president: "The Security Council condemns the campaign of violence against the political opposition ahead of the second round of presidential elections scheduled for 27 June which has resulted in the killing of scores of opposition activists and other Zimbabweans and the beating and displacement of thousands of people, including many women and children. The Security Council further condemns the actions of the government of Zimbabwe that have denied its political opponents the right to campaign freely and calls upon the government of Zimbabwe to stop the violence." It's not clear who will represent the opposition party in upcoming elections. Tsvangirai pulled out of the race calling it a sham, but the Zibabwean government says voting will go on as scheduled. The number two man in the party has been arrested and charged with treason. In recent years, Zimbabwe has suffered through increasing inflation and skyrocketing unemployment -- which now stands at 85 percent. ___ ___, The Associated Press Tags: zimbabwe un says fair vote impossible |

Mugabe's Calling Card - Zimbabwe June 2008 Violence in Zimbabwe escalates as Robert Mugabe's ZANU PF party fights growing political resistance. Using a hidden camera we follow the MDC's resistance movement. Julius is a young man in-hiding after an attack by Mugabe loyalists left him with severe injuries. He was beaten unconscious and left to drown. Many of his attackers were neighbours, 'I used to socialise with them', he says. 'Our crime was that we voted for the MDC', Julius tells us. 'We were beaten because they said we wasted our votes and sold our country'. A badly injured man, targeted by ZANU PF for acting as a polling officer, is being treated at a nearby hospital. He knows he is risking his life by appearing on-camera but does not turn us down; 'I want the world to know that it is true', he explains. 'People are being beaten by ZANU PF, people are being killed by ZANU PF'. Tags: Mugabe Election Zimbabwe President Journeyman Pictures |

Interview: Zimbabwe Ambassador LaRouche Show Interview: Zimbabwe Ambassador Mapuranga For information on the British destablization efforts against africa visit: http://larouchepac.com Zimbabwe's Ambassador to the U.S., Dr. Machivenyika Mapuranga,was the featured guest on the LaRouche Show Saturday, April 12. In dialogue with EIR's Lawrence Freeman and Portia Tarumbwa Strid, Ambassador Mapuranga provided the historical backdrop to the current British power play in Zimbabwe. Freeman reminded the audience that this is one of many British power plays and destabilizations around the globe today, as the Brits attempt to ensure their hold on power, now that their financial system has collapsed. Ambassador Mapuranga explained that the current delay in finalizing the presidential vote count in Zimbabwe is the result of numerous discrepancies between the results posted publicly at the 8,000 polling places, and the tally sheets sent to Harare. He also referred to the tension created in the country by opposition leader and British tool Morgan Tsvangirai, who claims to have won the presidency -- without need for a runoff -- with 50.3% of the vote. His 50.3% is his unsupported claim, but {even if it were true}, 51% is needed to avoid a runoff, under the Constitution. Tsvangirai is steered and paid for by the British. This is no secret, Mapuranga said: The three major British parties -- Conservative, Labour, and Liberal -- vie with each other in the size of their contributions to the relevant conduit, the Westminster Foundation, whose website anyone can visit. In 2007, a State Department report said point blank that the U.S. is supporting Tsvangirai's Movement for Democratic Change (MDC). Before independence in 1980, Ambassador Mapuranga explained, Zimbabwe -- or Southern Rhodesia as it then was -- was one of the five British imperial "white man's countries" in the common parlance of British official correspondence preserved in the Public Record Office [now renamed the National Archives]. Those five were Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa, and Southern Rhodesia. The plan was to increase the white populations of the latter two until they outnumbered the Africans. In Southern Rhodesia, the ratio went from 1:17,000 in the 1890s when the British first conquered the country, to 1:13 in 1961, at the peak. The Brits took the best lands and herded the African majority into "Native Reserves" of only 25% of the territory. "That's why we had to fight a 14-year war of independence, from 1966-1979," and why the British {still} think they own the place. What especially worries the British is the Zimbabwe government's return of land from European settlers to Africans, and that South Africa and Namibia have begun to follow Zimbabwe's lead, even if only on a small scale so far. Sanctions began after the start of the land redistribution program in 2000. But the standard British and State Department line is, "What sanctions? We only have `targetted sanctions' against the funds and travel of government leaders," which is a total lie. For example, the British-inspired U.S. Zimbabwe Democracy and Economic Recovery Act of 2001 instructed all U.S. members of international financial institutions to oppose and vote against any loans, credits, or guarantees for Zimbabwe. In 2004, Prime Minister Tony Blair said publicly, "Our policy toward Zimbabwe is regime change." Did he propose to do that with nothing more than "targetted sanctions" and support for Tsvangirai? Another deception, according to Portia Tarumbwa Strid, is the claim that the collapse of Zimbabwe's economy is not the result of the economic vise-grip (which of course, doesn't exist!), but rather because Africans don't know how to farm. She pointed out that the big white-owned farms were operated and managed by Africans! The white cash-crop policies were the problem. What Zimbabwe needs is water management systems, other infrastructure, nuclear power, and nuclear irradiation to prevent crop spoilage. Other African leaders support Mugabe, Ambassador Mapuranga said, because they know that if the Brits get control of Zimbabwe, their countries will be next. That applies with special force to South Africa. There is a new determination of African people to take their destiny into their own hands, Portia Tarumbwa Strid emphasized, but they are being obstructed by the British and their allies.
