'Bring down Zimbabwe's unjust regime'
South African and Zimbabwean church leaders have condemned the South African government and other African leaders for their silence on the state-backed human rights violations in Zimbabwe, and have called for international solidarity to dismantle the national youth service training programme.

Speaking at the launch of a report detailing youth militia training and activities in Zimbabwe, the church leaders said the youth programme was a paramilitary operation used by the ruling Zanu-PF party "to maintain their hold on power by whatever means necessary, including torture, rape, murder and arson".

This is called Bush magic or Bush techniques to keeping power.
