I have been there and seen first hand the devastation Mugabe's dictatorship is wreaking on that nation. It is worse now than when I was there a few years ago. I was in a meeting with the head of our ACOP churches in that nation on Thursday. It is unbelievable what Mugabe is doing and no one is doing anything to stop him.

Chalk it up to American (and European) hypocrisy! The United States of America claims to have certain "national interests" and they use this as an excuse to impose its will on other nations and interfere with their internal affairs. Most, if not all, of the founding fathers believed that the "national interest" of the United States was to not get entangled in the affairs of other nations. It was a good foreign policy then and it's still a good foreign policy.
