Why, exactly, does New Republic supremo Marty Peretz choose to refer to Zimbabwe by the name it had under colonial and then illegal white minority independent rule?
There has been a very scrupulous [sanctions] regime in place against Rhodesia for five years, one that is directed against the political elites and not the general population.
UPDATE: He changed the sentence without any acknowledgment of what was there before. Nice blogger ethics Marty!
