Zimbabwean nightmares

I watched this video yesterday so I know where the scenes came from ....

In my dream .... I went out to a party which was held in a large hall as a lot of Bulawayo parties are. There were the usual crowds but they were all fairly quiet so I kept moving inbetween 2 bunches of people. Drinks were served in a side-room but when I went in there were Police hanging about looking malicious so I got my order then went back out and and a lot of people had left. Suddenly I was at home, in a very large house as I was always lucky to live in, but I couldn't find anyone so I was sneaking around the place feeling quite terrified. Alice, our domestic worker, had her light on so I shouted for her to come in and sleep in the spare bed in my room. When tiptoeing back down the passage I was confronted by more Police Officers saying they had caught 2 dangerous men nearby and needed to hold them captive at the house for a while. 1 of the detainees appeared to be having an epileptic seizure but the cops weren't bothered, they just wanted tea and sandwiches on demand. My dad appeared but he was a lot shorter than me and very subdued, he just obeyed what they said. I knew that the Police were evil but I was so fear-struck that I could not do anything.

Luckily after that I woke up and now at 4am I'm typing this. I know that sort of thing is Not happening in My house right now but it is to the people who are trying to stand up against the Mugabe regime. Who do you trust if it's not your government and police-force? ... Superman? Batman? Captain Planet?

I feel sick for the those who are being subjected to that sort of terrorising and they do not get to wake up like I just did. But it seems they do not have a choice so they just get on with it no matter what the consequences. I know why the world does not put a stop to these situations - because they, like me, do not know what to do and how to do it .. so we all feel helpless.
