Zimbabwe: Further Developments Relating to Individuals Subjected to Enforced Disappearances

26 December 2008


(Page 2 of 2)

These abductees are human beings. They have been subjected to the most cruel and inhuman treatment, and have had, and continue to have, all their fundamental rights and freedoms violated. It is unclear how our society will continue to function in this disturbingly insecure era where no person's dignity and rights are respected and in which state institutions have been stripped of all their authority in order to give effect to the whims of an all-powerful executive arm of government.

Mugabe should be accountable to the suffering and pain experienced by these abductees. There are no two ways.

Loshto, I sadly must agree with you on this post and your other related post.Even a magistrate who has ordered a show of humanity is defied by these Hyenas who masquerade as upholders of the law.People of Zimbabwe and Africa as a whole see here now your true enemy.Dont be fooled by lies and the ghosts of the past,Mugga and his likes are sucking the lifeforce out of Africa .All this time whilst those that can help sit by and do nothing.All the while,the strength and courage of the good people of Zimbabwe who are beaten and oppressed still wont bow to this tyranny.You are an inspiration to a world where freedom,justice and compassionate humanism is taking second place to the greed and corruption of what should be responsible powers.Let us all join together and put the dictators out of business.

buddhamate, Dec 26 22:17:41 2008 .. " Loshto, I sadly must agree with you on this post and your other related post ..."

Buddhamate, If you always agree with Loshto, then you contribute no information and your blather here is at best superfluous and it unnecessarily clogs up the internet bandwidth.

We gladly release you from any obligation you may feel to present comments here ...

I certainly do not approve of injustice and the absence of the rule of law anywhere wherever. But the security of the state is paramount and the foremost important thing to all citizens of any country ... including the USA, UK and our Great Zimbabwe. When America was faced serious threats from those the USA referred to as "terrorists", the American gvt rightly took measures to protect welfare of country and people ...thay sent their agents all over the earth and into space to eliminate and neutralise this threat...remember tha reeditins activities and the effective detention centre off Cuba. Who would not do that when faced with the tragedy of the ThreeTowers in NewYork. The uk made laws which allowed the authorities and security agents to arrest/detain, take you to special set up interrogation centers, eg Paddington Police, and hold you there at the pleasure of her Majesty .... indefinitely. Who would not understand that all these laws are in the best interests of ALL who love peace and the rule of law through out the British isles. Surely one would not deny the gvt of Zimbabwe the same tools, especially that it is operating in a war environment against the most powerful collection of people ever existed on the planet...namely the English-Speaking nations ....led by the USA, UK, Canada and Australia. Mukoko and like thinking silly Zimbabweans should know this. Unfortunately they have chosen to be in Zimbabwe. "Simbi ino rodza imwe simbi" so the badge of Chirodzo school in Mbare says. Why complain kana uchikweshera pano baya? Ndizvozvo mukoma Chakanyuka!!!

I suppose a ZANU like aka thinks that the 2 year old is the ring leader of the terrorists!

Truly you are one sick human being, aka to keep defending the indefensible.

Who can believe that Justine is training terrorists?

The standard ZANU tactic is to accuse victims of committing zanu crimes. Repeat the lie loudly and often and people start to believe it. At least the weak minded ones do.

Aardie,

The issue is not whether Jestina is capable of "training terrorists" or not, but about what role she can play in facilitating the training of terrorists. Clearly, the article shows that Jestina and her organisation - ZPP - have allowed themselves to be used as imperialist conduits in the regime change agenda. Through ZPP and Jestina, the CIA and MI5 were able to get money to those who were training bandits in Botswana.

We all know that the CIA, since 9/11, has gone after those who finance what they term 'terrorists' activities. In this regard they have not only frozen assets belonging to people linked to 'terrorists' but have also arrested and prosecuted the financiers and in some cases the CIA has killed people and bombed facilities linked to Al Qaeda. This only goes to show that where the security of the state is threatened, the authorities should use all means at their disposal to protect the state and its citizens.

Therefore, "the weak minded ones" are people like you who accept that America has a right to protect itself from 'terrorists' by carrying out extraordinary randitions, but do not want to accept that Zimbabwe has the same right when it is threatened and when evidence overwhelmingly links people like Jestina Mukoko to banditry training.

The CIA, trained, armed and financed Unita bandits in Angola. The CIA trained, armed and financed the Renamo bandits in Mozambique. The CIA recruited, trained, armed and financed the Contra bandits in Nicaragua. The CIA recruited, trained, armed and financed Al Qaeda to fight Russian soldiers in Afghanistan. I could go on and on, suffice to say that in all these cases the CIA channeled money to finance these operations through organisations such as the one head by Jestina Mukoko.
