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.

[The MDC is probably right. Jan]
Harare – Police in Zimbabwe have released all opposition activists who were arrested in a raid on their party headquarters over the weekend, a party spokesperson said Monday.
“The remaining 41 of the 200 youth members arrested at the weekend have been released without charge after spending two nights in custody,” Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) spokesperson Nelson Chamisa told AFP.
“Police were sending our lawyers from one point to the other while they released the youth in batches.
“It’s just harassment … a systematic onslaught on all structures of our party. The Zanu-PF regime is behaving as if the MDC is an illegal terrorist organisation,” he added in reference to the ruling party.
Rifle-wielding police barged into a meeting at the MDC headquarters in central Harare and picked up at least 200 youth on Saturday, two days after Zimbabwean police extended a ban on political rallies and processions in parts of the capital.
The bulk of them were released on Sunday.
Lawyer Alec Muchadehama, who was waiting for his clients at the magistrate’s court, said the police refused to give reasons for their detention.
An MDC lawmaker and 31 other activists are in prison on remand after being arrested in March during a police crackdown on the opposition and charged with terrorism, banditry and sabotage.
They were accused of undergoing training in neighbouring South Africa on how to make and use firebombs.
The MDC, which launched a campaign to pressure the government of veteran President Robert Mugabe to release its members, dismissed the charges as “mere fabrication”.
MDC leader Morgan Tsvangirai and dozens of activists were detained by members of Mugabe’s security forces and assaulted in March after they defied the ban on rallies and tried to hold an anti-government prayer rally. – Sapa-AFP
