Some in Africa see the truth behind the EU

An item on a site "African Path" has a revealing article by Elie B. Smith titled:

"Robert Gabriel Mugabe: the disgrace of Africa will be in Lisbon"

The opening paragraph is quoted below, but I recommend you read it all, from here. How can it be that African commentators can see the reality so clearly while almost the entire population of the Continent of Europe is silent on the tyranny rising in their midst? "Are we surprised that, the European Union, which is made up of 27 states, has decided to give a VIP invitation to Mr Mugabe? The invitation, will enable Comrade Bob, to attain the Euro-African summit, scheduled for the Portuguese capital, Lisbon, on the 8^th and 9^th of December 2007. If there is any one who is surprised by the consecration, given to the Zimbabwean leader by Brussels, then he/she does not know or understand, the proper functioning of the aspiring Empire of Evil, that the European Union truly is. The European Union, that is already or has metamorphosed into a de facto country, is a body that doesn’t like contradictions and its leaderships are constituted of spent and nationally regurgitated politicians."
