The New York Times' Racism
Of course, I know better.
"Foreigners remain displaced by attacks
CAPE TOWN - About 42,000 foreigners remain without proper shelter in South Africa nearly three weeks after they were displaced by xenophobic attacks. The government has done too little too late to help the victims, opposition leaders and aid groups, including Doctors without Borders, said yesterday. The UN High Commissioner for Refugees donated 2,000 tents and said it would help authorities find sites for temporary camps (AP May 31 2008)."
So what was the only story coming out of Africa last week is now a brief (with all the other crap in the paper, too!).
Next!!!
"25 people reported dead in flash floods
HARAR - At least 25 people have died in flash floods in eastern Ethiopia. Local government officials reported the deaths in the eastern city of Jijiga when the Wabe Shebelle River burst its banks. Emergency workers said several houses were swept away in the floods. Most of Ethiopia, however, is in the grip of a drought that has caused crops to fail and left thousands hungry (Reuters)."
So how is Ethiopia's occupation of Somalia going?
And nothing on Somalia or Sudan today, huh, MSM?
Nope, just more bullshit politics!!
"Zimbabwe opposition proclaims rule; Convenes session of parliament" by Angus Shaw, Associated Press | May 31, 2008
HARARE, Zimbabwe - Sikhanyiso Ndlovu, the minister of information and publicity, predicted that Mugabe would win 75 percent in the runoff vote, and his wife, Grace, said the 84-year-old veteran would never cede power to Movement for Democratic Change leader Morgan Tsvangirai, according to the state Herald newspaper yesterday....
Looks like more vote fraud on the way.
The lawmakers' agenda was to be based on a "Restore Hope" campaign that encompassed human and democratic rights, reconciliation, and the nation's return from international isolation. The party proposed the establishment of a Truth and Justice Commission that would investigate crimes against ordinary people and work out compensation for victims....
Honestly, this is what ALL PEOPLE deserve -- not just the citizens of Zimbabwe.
Many observers fear that Mugabe will use intimidation and violence to steal the election.... More than 50 people who have died in violence since the March elections. Tens of thousands of opposition supporters have been driven from their homes."
Yeah, that violence sure is being hidden by the MSM.
