One hears about a phrase called "Blood Diamond." awfully a lot. But, unless he or she is familiar with the subject, not many people really understand that it, in a nutshell, is nothing but a massive slavery of the Zimbabwean women and children by the greedy corrupted officials.

Blood diamond is a case of forced labor by the regime. No one calls this a massive human trafficking because traffickers are not pimps on the street. But, if you look at the definition of the human trafficking by UN, it falls precisely under the definition of human trafficking; forced, transferred, etc., except the pimps are the President or the government of the Zimbabwe itself.

Mugabe's regime is guilty of so many crimes against humanity in Zimbabwe and the list just keeps growing. Not enough is being done by the international community to bring him under control. There have been so many letters written to politicians, and petitions signed and sent on, yet no action is taken.
When you consider the way South Africa was treated during apartheid, surely more can be done against Mugabe and his thuggish regime.
