WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

US widens its sanctions against Zimbabwe
[Every bit helps. I am pleased the Americans are doing this. Its nowhere nearly as much as I’d like to see, but they are definitely doing more than anybody else, and for that they deserve credit. Jan]
Washington – The United States on Tuesday said it was widening an existing sanctions regime against Zimbabwe to include seven government-related businesses.
The enhanced US sanctions ban any transactions with the seven black-listed groups.
The US state department said the sanctions will apply to commercial farms “seized” by Zimbabwe Information Minister Jonathan Moyo; Zimbabwe Defence Industries, a state-owned arms maker and M&S Syndicate, a holding group owned by the ruling Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front.
Also targeted are two companies “representing the interests” of retired Zimbabwe Defence Forces General Vitalis Zvinavashe, the state department said in a statement.
‘The sanctions will apply to commercial farms’
“Should Zimbabwe’s rulers continue to oppress its citizens and to resist forthright efforts toward resolving the country’s political crisis, we are prepared to impose additional targeted financial and travel sanctions on those undermining democracy in Zimbabwe,” the state department said.
A high profile state department human rights report, released here in February, said Zimbabwe’s government continued to oversee “a concerted campaign of violence, repression and intimidation.”
“Torture by various methods is used against political opponents and human rights advocates,” the report added. – Sapa-AFP
