The reason Kwaisi Mfume, Julian Bond, Randall Robinson, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and other black worthies are not marching in the streets demanding sanctions against Zimbabwe is because its not a white dictator oppressing and killing blacks. If a black racist does it to a white minority and non-blacks in his country its a total non-issue with these people. Hence the sickening hypocrisy and human rights double standard they embrace. How they can still accuse America of continuing to foment racism at home is beyond me.

It seems to me since the ending of colonial rule, that there are far more problems in Africa than before. Hunger, aids, poverty, tribal warfare, and other assorted crisis seem to abound. The explanation seems to lie in the transition from colonialism. Are the masses incapable of governing themselves?

Did the Western nations do the the people a favor by insisting on decolonization? The answer seems to be fairly obvious. Why don't the leaders that promoted this agenda, who took the time and expended the energy creating this mess, help straighten it out?
