"If I go back, I would be dead within hours," he said yesterday. "I feel very fortunate to have escaped. Many don't in Zimbabwe."

Kind of says it all, doesn't it?

***Mr Tapa is keen to remind people that it is not just whites in Zimbabwe that are suffering, but the hundreds of thousands of blacks who are losing their jobs on the land as well. "Over 150,000 black farm workers have already lost everything. Many have lost their lives," he said. "Add their families to this number and you are talking about 750,000 who have no homes, no schools, but the world just stands and watches." The livelihoods of another 200,000 black farm workers and their families were also threatened as Mr Mugabe completed his land redistribution, which began two years ago. ***

BUMP!
