Marange diamonds not bloody

Africa’s newest threat has a more respectable face, under the guise of bringing development and progress to Africa; NGOs have become the new missionaries of exploitation.
Gone are the tactics of arm-twisting and in their place are more finesse methods that systematically hack off any voices of reason, but flood the public domain with shock words that seek to create internal and external uproar.
Wikipedia defines a blood diamond as a diamond mined in a war zone and sold to finance an insurgency, invalidating army’s war efforts or a warlord’s activity, usually in Africa.
Human Rights Watch (HRW), which has been prided by the United States government as the top global watchdog, has labelled diamonds from Zimbabwe’s Marange area as blood diamonds for the purposes of advancing the regime change agenda.
HRW and the US government have a rather unusual and unhealthy relationship.
While one is a fox and the other a hen, they get along better than oxygen and fire.
HRW has been accused by China, Venezuela and other states of being used by the US government to fight its political wars under the guise of defending and protecting human rights.
HRW lacks impartiality, credibility and has failed to respond adequately to allegations that the majority of its operational funds come from the American government to whose tune the watchdog dances to.
It is no surprise that Zimbabwe would find itself in the firing line of HRW.
The ongoing war between Washington and Harare dictates that the battles be fought on many fields and HRW is up to its tricks of politicising issues on behalf of the US government.
It is quite clear that the Marange diamonds are not blood diamonds; so why would one of the “world’s leading independent organisations” erroneously label them as such.
Labelling Marange diamonds as blood diamonds was just a means to an end for HRW.
The publicity generated by their 62-paged report ensured that there was a public outcry, which provided fertile ground for the group to call upon the Kimberly Process to suspend Zimbabwe from trading in its diamonds.
