Zimbabwe...Cont'd...

Thabo Mbeki went to see Mugabe today. Big Deal!!! Mbeki has not done a thing. He and the ANC criticized the very "quiet diplomacy" during the Reagan years which led to prolonged misery. Yet, Mbeki has decided to pursue it without any result.
Mbeki seems to have his head in the sand.

Today, ZBC, the State Broadcaster, announced that it will not carry MDC ads. The so-called justice minister justified the decision by saying that the world is on the side of the MDC and no one wants to listen to ZANU-PF's views. What views?

Mugabe truly thinks he can get away with it? The tragedy of it is that he probably will. South Africa will be responsible and will have to pay the consequences for it.

The Mugabe Cat and Mouse Show....Cont'd......

President Mbeki of South Africa apparently is apparently blind. I had hoped that he would be able to persuade the monster Mugabe to back down and retire. But that has not happened. He has said that "there is no crisis". How can he say there is no crisis where almost a third of the country has fled, inflation is at almost 100,000, and conditions continue to deteriorate daily in Zimbabwe. President Mbeki has asked for patience. How long shall the people of Zimbabwe and the world be patient with a man who is just worried about his future? I also agree with some of the analysts who say that the cronies who got rich on the back of the people of Zimbabwe are the only ones who seem to be worried. There is also word that the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission is ordering a recount in 23 constituencies.

The drama continues....
