Zimbabwe has been re-elected to the United Nations Human Rights Commission for a 3-year term in another U.N. travesty.

Hat tip to Normblog.

The selective indignation of the Sydney Morning Herald focused on U.S., Canadian, and Austrialian objections, not once mentioning Mugabe's encouragement of the murderous rampages where white farmers were hacked to death. So little is written in the MSM about the rampages, they almost have the feel of urban legends, primarily because the black-on-white violence and Mugabe's Marxism does not lead to close media examination.

Do a search at BBC and you find 1,426 stories on Zimbabwe and the violence. Here Here Here Here

Terry Ford was the tenth white farmer to be slaughtered.

Where is the media indignation, the campaigns to right the wrong? Where is the fervor for the battle for what is right? And then ask yourself where is the indignation of the media when human rights violations happen in Cuba? Or where is media indignation over Chavez in Venezuela who is following the script of Mad Marxists Empowered by Meglomanic Media??

Let's face it. As Howard Rosenberg says, "The media doesn't tell you what to think. They tell you what to think about." And they don't want you to think about their role in empowering murdering despots like Pol Pot or Robert Mugabe or the madmen of the Sudan.
