  • watch this comment being used here, here and here
    It's stories like this that put our lives in perspective. We complain about rising gas prices, lack of health benefits, and a slew of other things; however, in light of these atrocities, our problems are inconsequential--at least we don't live in a country where we fear when and how the government will take our lives on a daily basis.

  • This is so tragic...and I agree with above comments. I think that there is not enough awareness. Ways to help out would spur people's awareness and wish to get involved in helping out with situations like this.

  • My dad used to say it all the time, in his native language. He comes from Haiti and rest assured, they know something about hunger, and they know just where to place the blame.

  • Do not worry, the UN is on top of the situation since the last 2 elections..

    The chinese have just sent weapons to Mugabe so he can keep the peace while we are watching the Olympics.

    They are all waiting for Obama to meet Mugabe personnaly and solve everything.
