 Imagine that one day an unpopular American President decides  that all
 his woes are the fault of black Americans. Using all the resources at  his
 disposal (press, police, army, party followers, US treasury resources,
 supportive neighbouring countries) this President declares that
 African-Americans should "Go back to Africa".
> > >
Using spurious judges and legislators, he makes black  Americans
non-citizens unless they can renounce any vague claim they might have
 to citizenship of a country in Africa in which their parents or even
 grandparents were born; without this, they lose American citizenship.
> > >
 Next he declares their businesses illegal and gives them 90  days toclose
 down and leave.
> > >
After the 90 day period, and in spite of numerous court cases  proving
the President's case illegal, he sends in the army, police and mobs of
drunk, drugged, illiterate white Americans to force the black Americans out
of their homes. They are forced to close their businesses, to pay
compensation to  their workers (who are now all out of jobs), and to hand
over the keys and title  deeds of their homes and businesses either to mobs
of axe-wielding, drunken,  illiterate white youth or to senior white civil
servants, policemen or army  commanders, and even to the American First
Lady. If these black Americans refuse  to go, they are arrested and locked
up in filthy overcrowded cells awaiting  their "court cases". Can you
imagine the uproar around the world?
> > >
 Now substitute "Zimbabwe" for "America" and exchange "black"  and
 "white", and you will understand exactly what is happening in Zimbabwe,
right now.
> > >
Are you still outraged? Good.
> > >
Then forward this to your representative in your country's  government,
and to anyone you know anywhere in the world who might feel the same  way
you do.
