Zimbabwe Suspends CARE



Add to the sheer Felliniesque surreality of "President" Robert Mugabe attending a food conference, his idiot regime has just suspended CARE. Won't someone please oust this historical abnormality? From the NYTimes:

"The Zimbabwean government has suspended all the humanitarian work of CARE, one of the largest nonprofit groups working in the country, because of allegations that it sided with the political opposition party in the current election season.

"CARE provides assistance to 500,000 of Zimbabwe’s most vulnerable people, including orphans, the sick and the elderly. This month, it would have fed more than 110,000 people in schools, orphanages, old age homes and through other programs."
