Letters to the Editor

Double Standards on Sham Elections

Some members of the Bush administration are upset about the sham elections in Zimbabwe, and are calling for sanctions. I don't think that Saudi Arabia has ever had national elections sham or otherwise. How about sanctions against the Saudi dictatorship?

Communist China spies on our government, forces women to have abortions, executes political prisoners, controls Tibet, and supports Zimbabwe. How about sanctions against against the Chinese dictatorship? How about sanctions against North Korea?

For some reason, our federal government has a hypocritical foreign policy that is full of double standards. Our country should have a standardized foreign policy that opposes all dictatorships, and supports democracy in all countries.

-- Chuck Mann, Greensboro, North Carolina
