Reports of more land seizure in Zimbabwe

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.

There are reports of more land seizures in Zimbabwe. This comes as white
farmers across the country protest against a court-delay that is keeping 21
farmers behind bars.

The farmers were arrested nearly two weeks ago, after being accused of
attacking a group of black squatters. The High court has so far postponed the
decision for bail twice.

Meanwhile white Zimbabwean farmers have been told to leave their property to
make way for black settlers, that is the word from the country’s Minister for
lands.

Zimbabwe’s government says it will not declare a state of emergency if the
United States imposes sanctions on its leaders.

Jonathan Moyo, Information Minister, says: “The suggestion that the American
sanctions bill against Zimbabwe would lead to the declaration of a state of
emergency is totally baseless”.

“We will not declare a state of emergency, especially now when we have gone
over the dark clouds,” he says.

But Foreign Minister Stan Mudenge has told state television that if Zimbabwe
fails in its lobbying efforts to stop the bill’s passage, a declaration of a
state of emergency in Zimbabwe could not be ruled out.

“When a country is under siege, all options will be looked at, including
declaring a state of emergency,” Mudenge says.

Under a state of emergency, a number of constitutional rights such as freedom
of expression, assembly and movement could cease to have effect, according to
legal experts.

If imposed, the measure could sharply limit the ability of President Robert
Mugabe’s opponents to campaign against him in presidential elections due in
April. – Sapa – AFP
