MUGABE HAS CALLED TSVANGIRAI A BRITISH PUPPET: HE NOW SMUG, HE IS NOW PULLING THE STRINGS!

On Saturday 14 March 2009 the late Retired General Vitalis Zvinavashe was laid to rest at the National Hero’s Acre. It is not for me to speak ill of the dead but it will suffice to say that before the 2002 presidential elections he would not salute Tsvangirai if he should was to win the elections. If that is not an act of treason, I do not know what is.

Tsvangirai attended the burial service of Zvinavashe at Hero’s Acre, underlining that he too considered the late to be a national hero. This is just another example that it the old Zanu PF values not MDC values that is dictating the direction by with the GNU sail.

Mugabe attended the funeral service and used the occasion to lambast the British. So the nation was subjected to another session shadow boxing!

Mugabe called Tsvangirai a puppet of the British and the West and that was his excuse for using all kinds of dirty tricks including murder to stop his election and to deny Zimbabweans a meaningful say in the governance of the country. According to Mugabe, Zimbabwe’s independence and sovereignty was at stake if that was allowed to happen and that was sacrilege. Of course he never ever produced one iota of evidence of a British scheme to re-colonise Zimbabwe because White Hall never hatched such a scheme. It was all a fragment of Mugabe’s imagination, a feeble attempt to hide his dictatorial and brutal intentions to hang on to power at all cost.

Now that the MDC has sold-out and jointed Zanu PF on Mugabe’s terms, his dictatorial terms; one would think Mugabe would finally give this British threat rubbish a break. No chance; he is still ranting on about “British interference”!

Zimbabwe is facing the greatest national economic crisis – a result of three decades of Mugabe’s misrule – which is causing untold human suffering. Instead of addressing this problem the nation is instead wasting time fighting an imaginary enemy!

Throughout the years, Tsvangirai failed to shake-off the “puppet” label Mugabe gave him. Mugabe grudging accept Tsvangirai as his Prime Minister – with no real political power – to lead his charm offensive to win the Western economic assistance to get the country’s economy out of its current hell-hole. But because Mugabe does not want to accept that he is responsible for the economic melt down he has to maintain his position that it is the British and the West who destroyed Zimbabwe. And poor Tsvangirai has to mount his charm offensive with a begging bowl in one hand and beating an anti-west drum!

In the picture above, Mugabe has a smug grin on his face. So he should too, he is sending the “British puppet” Tsvangirai to the British and everyone knows it is him who has the full control of the puppet!

Of course the West will send Tsvangirai back empty handed. They have already said they will “wait and see” if there was any real change in Harare. Common sense dictated that the GNU was nothing more than a white-washed Mugabe dictatorship and all this anti-west rhetoric only confirms nothing has really changed.
Least we forget, the people of Zimbabwe are the ones paying the ultimate price for all this shadow boxing when we should be addressing the things that have turned their lives into a nightmare!
