December 23,2008:
UN investigators have traced 53 tons of munitions Zimbabwe received earlier
this year. The stuff went from Sudan, to Congo and then to Zimbabwe. All this
was a violation of international agreements to restrict arms shipments to
Congo. The ammo shipped from Sudan was believed to be Chinese. Zimbabwe is run
by a dictatorship that has destroyed a once thriving economy, and left nearly
half the population on the edge of starvation.
