Opposition leader arrested in Zimbabwe
Wed, 06/04/2008 - 5:49pm
As Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe was proving that he has a sense of humor by appearing at a the U.N. food summit in Rome while his people suffer from government-induced starvation and out-of-control inflation, Zimbabwean opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai was being arrested today. Charges have yet to be filed against Mugabe's chief political rival -- whom many observers say was victorious in the first round of the country's presidential elections in March -- and with the sad state of affairs in Zimbabwe, I wouldn't hold your breath.
