The wife of a Zimbabwean opposition party member has been brutally murdered in what is being labelled as one the most grotesque atrocities yet committed by Robert Mugabe�s regime.
Dadirai Chipiro, wife of Patson Chipiro who heads the Zimbabwean opposition party in Mhondoro district, had a hand cut off as well as both of her feet before a petrol bomb was thrown through her window.
The three men who pulled up outside her house were looking for her husband, who was in Harare, and left before coming back an hour later to kill her.
Her body was so badly burnt that she was not able to be properly placed in a coffin as her arm was burnt rigid.
Last Friday's killing was carried out as violence worsens in the run-off presidential elections in two weeks time.
It also follows the chilling brutality methods of Sirrra Leone rebel leader Foday Sankoh, whose trade-mark was to chop off hands and feet.
According to The Times, Mrs Chipiro, 45, a former pre-school teacher, was the second wife of a junior official of the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) burnt alive by Zanu (PF) militiamen.
Pamela Pasvani, the 21-year-old pregnant wife of a local councillor in Harare was killed in a similar attack, which also claimed the life of the councillor six-year-old son. |

I am all for South Africa to intervene and arm certain Zimbabweans to take over and remove Mugabe for power. The situation is very horrible in Zimbabwe. About 20% of the population left the country. That's absolutely crazy. |

Opposition has no weapons.
Mugabe has truckloads.
Dictators stay on top until they run out of bullets. China will always be there to keep him stocked up.
It was over for that country the moment white rule ended. And we have the west to thank for that.
Britain helped install the former terrorist Mugabe in the name of liberal western political correctness.
Least they can do now to correct the situation is arm the opposition. Run a few training camps in Botswana, say, and send the insurgents over the border through matabeleland (which is zimbabwe's southern province and largely pro MDC).

Opposition now classed as treason in Zimbabwe as leader faces death penalty

South Africa is not gonna do jack squat. In fact, they have always endeavored to do the exact opposite. Every time the UN is called to answer about the atrocities in Zimbabwe, South Africa stifles the UN each and every time. The SA black leadership sees Mgabe as a hero for standing up to white post-colonial oppression. |
