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.

Morgan Tsvangirai, the leader of Zimbabwe’s opposition Movement for
Democratic Change (MDC), said today he was pleased to see South Africa taking
a more active role in Zimbabwe.
Addressing the Cape Town Press Club, he said he was glad President Thabo
Mbeki appeared to have reviewed his position on the Mugabe government.
“For a long time the international community has been cynical in its approach
to Zimbabwe, but they have all come to realise that the crisis has serious
implications for the whole region,” he said. Tsvangirai said he did not
support wholesale sanctions against the Zimbabwean government. He said the
country would not survive international sanctions.
However, he would support certain limitations such as restricting travel by
the country’s leaders, and targeted sanctions against them instead of the
people. He said there was no reason why Mugabe should be allowed to attend
the Brisbane conference of Commonwealth leaders later this year.
Tsvangirai said Mugabe had violated the Commonwealth’s rules and if he did
attend, this could be seen as an endorsement of his actions.
Regarding the violence and looting affecting northern Zimbabwe, he said the
first priority was to ensure the safety of farmers and their workers even if
it meant evacuating them from the area.
Meanwhile, the Zimbabwe High Court has postponed a decision on a bail
application for 21 imprisoned white commercial farmers who face public
violence charges.
Judge Rita Makarau today told the court she needed time to assess submissions
made by the farmers’ lawyer, saying she would pass judgement on the
application tomorrow. The farmers were arrested last week after they clashed
with black occupiers on a farm in Chinhoyi. – Sapa
