Is Zimbabwe The Next Killing Fields?

Is Mugabe the next Pol Pot? Well, it certainly seems that he's heading in that direction. He's depopulating the cities, destroying what infrastructure and agricultural resources were present, and forcing people in to subsistence living.

And where are the marchers in the west? Where are the protesters calling for justice in Zimbabwe? Where is the outrage from those tireless tribunes of the Third World, the UN? Why can I not hear the snarls of fury from the alphabet soup of NGOs? What of the legions of Guardian readers finding out about all this? What are they going to call for? Amnesty International is getting a lot of (bad) publicity from having called Guantanamo Bay 'a gulag' whilst now admitting they do not actually know what is happening there, yet why are they not straining every fibre of their being in opposition to this African horror? There is tyranny aplenty to be opposed without having to invent any.
