REQUEST FOR WORLD ATTENTION - (DON'T WORRY...NOT MONEY!)
To Anyone Who Will Read This,
I'm originally from the country of Zimbabwe in Central Africa. I'm sending this
e-mail on the behalf of Zimbabwe citizens who fear for their future and want the truth
to be heard around the world. They cannot e-mail you themselves, as their so-called
leader just passed a * law ordering the government to cancel the e-mail accounts of
anyone * found sending an e-mail criticizing the government in any way.
* Additionally, such person may be fined up to U.S. $25,000 * (approximately Z$
1,000,000!).
Zimbabwe is undergoing a severe economic crisis at the moment, mainly due to
MASSIVE corruption and incompetence at the government level.
But that's not all...
The country is currently experiencing severe fuel shortages (people are lining up at
gas pumps for as much as 6 - 8 hours for a gallon of gasoline, and even doctors are
struggling to get fuel for their vehicles).
To make matters even worse, Zimbabwe has also been ravaged by severe floods,
with thousands of people being stranded in treetops etc. And while South Africa, the
LDS church and other countries have sent in helicopters to help with rescue efforts,
Zimbabwe's leader, Robert Mugabe, has been using one among Zimbabwe's own tiny
fleet of helicopters to fly across the country to rally political support and pick up a load
of watermelons for himself and some of his fellow ruling party comrades!
Mugabe's government is also assisting in the illegal attack and take-over of
white-owned farms by former war veterans. Mugabe became Zimbabwe's ruler almost
20 years ago by promising land to the people that fought to get him into power.
However, he then turned around and distributed most of the allotted land to
political supporters in return for donating funds to his political party, instead of
distributing it to the war veterans as promised.
When the war veterans finally lost patience almost 20 years later and began
organizing uprisings, Mugabe incited the veterans to take land from the white farmers
instead of telling the truth about where the veterans' allotted land had gone. The
government then assisted the veterans by transporting them to white-owned farms in
government vehicles with instructions to 'take what's rightfully yours'. Bear in
mind that 95% of Zimbabwe's white farmers BOUGHT their land from the
government at market prices.
Mugabe continues to publicly blame the whites for all Zimbabwe's woes, yet there
are less than 50,000 whites out of a total population of about 12,000,000 (that's less
than 1 in 200) and they don't even have a voice in Parliament! Go figure...
The Court has now ruled against its own government's actions and in favor of the
Zimbabwe Commercial Farmers' Union, ordering all veterans to vacate the farms
within 24 hours. However, it's expected that the police and other government bodies
will refuse to enforce their own Court's order.
Zimbabwe's commercial farmers - many of whom are white - feed millions
of people throughout Africa and produce most of Zimbabwe's foreign revenue.
Without the white farmers' expertise, millions of people would starve and Zimbabwe
would earn very little foreign currency. But Mugabe is willing to engineer this outcome
and sell his entire country and all its people down the river in an effort to cover up his
own dirty dealings and stay in power!
What's going on in Zimbabwe under the present government is EVIL, EVIL, EVIL!
Zimbabwe's next election is coming up towards the end of April and Mugabe's cohorts
are now making threats of war and violence if he's not voted in again. If the
popular-with-the-people opposition party wins, the corruption will be halted and
the country WILL undergo positive change...if not (due to intimidation, rigged
voting, etc.) the country is doomed to disaster!
Any prayers and 'positive thoughts' for a properly-run election and for the
future of Zimbabwe and its people would be much appreciated.
Also, please be kind enough to forward this e-mail to everyone you know in order
that we can finally get the truth out to the public.
Sincerely,
Bryan Noar
