Horror

If I weren't so burnt by our regime change experience in Iraq, I'd say go the hell into Zimbabwe and arrest dictator Robert Mugabe tonight.

The New York Times has a terrifying article on his junta's death squads kidnapping , torturing, mutilating and murdering the peaceful political opposition and even just sympathetic voters in the lead up to next week's bullshit run-off election.

Check out the link but have a strong stomach. I can't even quote from it, it's too horrible. This is happening right now, more as I write this.

It's time for the neighboring countries in Africa to act like a continent and get that vicious 82 year-old criminal, and as many of his henchmen as possible, into retirement.

This should be on everyone's mind and discussed in the U.N. on Monday. This is a real battle for democratic rights, human rights.

Death to tyrants.
