Why is Zim in the T20 World Cup?

I am pretty irate about this. I don't understand why the hell the rest of the world is allowing Zim to play in the T20 World Cup? I think it is disgraceful.Please don't misunderstand me, I am compassionate about the people in Zim and the players on the team but at the end of the day someone needs to make a stand against big-bad-bob (BBB).You can argue until the cows come home that sports and politics are seperate but they are not. They are intricately intertwined and there is no disputing it. SA was banned from all international sport in the time of apartheid I think that is 100% spot on.Sport is something that brings a nation together, creates income and allows you to showcase your country to the world. If you are banned from taking part in major tournaments then your country suffers.However, this might not be so appropriate, on reflection, in the Zim example. If BBB actually gave a crap about his nation he wouldn't be doing what he is doing so let's be honest, who cares if Zim plays or not from his perspective. To him, he has what he wants he is making it happen in his little world. All the while his people are suffering and have to read posts like this written by relatively well-off South Africans who don't know the true extend of the situation there.I know it's easy to cast a dissaproving eye towards Zim and the international sporting community from where I sit, but I truly believe that if I were involved I would forfeit my position in the team if I were playing Zim.
