Mugabe's right.
Who is interested in Black Zimbabweans?


Interest : It's in the Cricketers interests to protect their careers and contracts

Interest : It's in the ECB's interest to avoid a £1million fine from the ICC

Interest : It's in the ICC's interest to safeguard contracts with the advertisers

Interest : It's in the GCC's interest to broadcast the match

Interest : It's in Mugabe's interest to prove that nobody is interested in six million Black Africans being deliberately starved to death by his regime.

But who is sufficiently interested in six million Black Africans being deliberately starved to death to risk their careers, contracts or broadcast?

The Aegis premium rate phone number - 0906 12 00 005 - gives people a chance to support the English cricketers by donating as little as £1 towards the £1million ICC fine England would face for withdrawing from the Zimbabwe match, also showing starving Zimbabweans that people in the UK care about their suffering.

"Today the England team made it crystal clear they don't want to go," says Aegis Director Dr Stephen Smith. "It's not fair to let them take this stand alone. There's no one who can't afford a pound to stand with them - and also show solidarity with Mugabe's victims."

Celebrities backing the campaign include Sir Bob Geldof and, as of today, Booker Prizewinning author Yann Martel.
