What are democrats doing? What is democracy saying? The era we are in today claims to be the most democratic yet it's actually the most realistically undemocratic in mankind's history.
Its normal to live lawless in a lawless world but it's naturally a disgrace to witness lawlessness in a probably legislative and constitutional era.
Events of today have undeniably proven the double standards and betrayal of democracy by the United Nations and other self-proclaimed global institutions that claim to be protagonists of democracy .
These words aren’t surprising to all who have witnessed the vile undemocratic slaughter of innocent Palestinians by the Israeli regime.16 000 Palestinian victims have fallen prey to the bloodthirsty Israeli aggression and if the right to life is one of the fundamental principles of democracy it means Israel is devouring it hungrily and paving way for it's extinction just like dodos have disappeared from the face of this earth.
The hypocrisy of the United Nations and other clandestine humanitarian institutions has been exposed by the blood of thousands of Palestinian victims.
As Zimbabweans who are a jubilee old under the yoke of sanctions we are bound to question if we have committed wrongs that are more sinister than the attacks on Palestine by an unsanctioned Israel.
As Zimbabweans who are approaching four decades of peace we are bound to condemn Israeli aggression as our natural instincts detest such inhumane behavior.
As Zimbabweans who are cultured and a God conscious nation we are bound to offer a condolence message to all Palestinians who have lost their loved ones.

Lastly, as Zimbabweans in respect to the diplomatic efforts of the Palestinian Ambassador to Zimbabwe we say commiserations to honorable Mr Tamer Almasri for the untimely death of his mother who fell victim to the bombardment by Israeli forces. Was she a member of Hamas as they claim that they are attacking strongholds of Hamas? A question that Israel knows the world is asking and they do know that they can't offer a justifiable answer.
As a son of the African motherland which has already witnessed and still witnessing the deplorable stench of capitalist imperial hegemony it's us who can comprehend the subjugation by super powers. Exploitation and abuse have never been abolished based on humanitarian reasons but as global trends evolve ,a new hybrid form of exploitation is introduced . .
For instance the Trans-Atlantic slave trade was abolished due to mechanisation which meant there was no more need for human labour .The colonial period seems to have ended but in reality it was a shift from direct rule to corporatocracy ( lobbying and economic system of rule ) and mind control are the major tenets of the New World Order.
It's a humiliation to the so-called advocates of universal global democracy as we are all witnessing the brutal treatment of the people of Palestine .It’s a pity to note that the Palestinians are being punished for giving the Israelis a home when they were desperate because initially the Israelis were once refugees in Palestine
.It is high time the United Nations in particular proves it's significance or there will be a dire need for all nations who uphold justice to withdraw from such a clandestine institution. The existence of G5 and G12 powers shows us that the equality of all nations in the United Nations is mere hearsay. The United Nations is supposed to prove it's worth because currently it has been affected by the diabolical policies of the G5 to the detriment of plenty other nations.
