Zimbabwe can’t keep up trying to be European: mothers throw away 20 babies a week

Old story still new:

No doubt Europe and the Soros Foundation should send its emergency education squad right on over to diagnose and solve the problem with more of its ’solutions’:

excerpted from: Desperate mothers throw away 20 babies a week as Zimbabwe starves - Sunday Times - Times Online

THE first time Knowledge Mbanda found a dead baby in the drains of Harare, he was horrified. “It is completely against our culture to abandon children,” he said. “I thought it must be of a woman who had been raped or a prostitute.” But now he and fellow council workers find at least 20 corpses of newborn babies each week, thrown away or even flushed down the lavatories of Zimbabwe’s capital.

The dumping of babies, along with what doctors describe as a “dramatic” increase in malnourished children in city hospitals, is the most shocking illustration of the economic collapse of a country that was once the breadbasket of southern Africa.

Some of the corpses are the result of unwanted pregnancies in a country experiencing a rise in sexual abuse and prostitution. But others are newborns dumped by desperate mothers unable to support another child. Inflation has reached 1,000% and the government’s seizure of 95% of commercial farms has seen food production plummet.

The dead gutter babies are the most pitiful victims of a government that believes it can starve its people into compliance, or death, turning Zimbabwe into the only country in the region with a shrinking population.

So grave is the situation that even the government media have begun reporting it. “Some of the things that are happening now are shocking,” complained Nomutsa Chideya, Harare’s town clerk, to the state-owned Herald newspaper. “Apart from upsetting the normal flow of waste, it [baby dumping] is not right from a moral standpoint.”

Paediatricians contacted by The Sunday Times in the two main cities of Harare and Bulawayo said severe child malnutrition had doubled over the past year and hospital morgues were piled high with bodies people could not afford to bury.

Children are dying off like flies,” said one surgeon in Bulawayo who, like most of those interviewed for this article, asked to remain anonymous for fear of repercussions by President Robert Mugabe’s police state.

Nobody knows the exact figures for malnutrition because the majority of victims cannot afford to reach hospitals. Moreover, according to the surgeon, the extent of the famine is being masked by the scale of the Aids epidemic, with more than a quarter of the population HIV-positive.

“Put simply, people are dying of Aids before they can starve to death,” he said.

Europe and The Left in America and the World: “The problem is NOT morality or sin. Homosexuality and prostitution are NOT sin. It is just a coincidence that AIDS and HIV accompany homosexuality and sexual promiscuity. The problem is poverty and lack of education. Don’t forget: POVERTY and LACK of EDUCATION. And ABORTION CLINICS. They wouldn’t be throwing away babies if they could abort them properly beforehand. Then they would be throwing away unrecognizable parts and the outcry would go away and that would be the same thing as being moral. To not be upset is to be moral. How many times must we imply it? If you upset anyone, you have sinned.”

Your ‘education’ is the problem.

Ezekiel 16:45 Thou art the daughter of thy mother that loathed her husband and her children; and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who loathed their husbands and their children. Your mother was a Hittite, and your father an Amorite.

In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen
