Hillary Clinton Notes Mugabe's Repression Targets Believers in Op-Ed

As the turmoil in Zimbabwe continues after a seriously tainted election process, President Mugabe is employing brutal tactics against dissenters in an attempt to retain power... [T]here are increasing reports that the police are interrogating, arresting, and beating Anglican parishioners and preventing them from attending Church. I join with people of all faiths...in calling for an end to the religious persecution taking place in Zimbabwe. These offenses are an affront to everyone... Zimbabwe's families and communities teeter on the edge of starvation and economic distress while intimidation and violence toward people of faith is being carried out by the ruling party. This past Sunday while many participated in Holy Communion, a church service was raided and congregants had to run for safety instead of participating in their most holy sacrament.
