President Obama and President Zuma
will discuss Zimbabwe before the US President fly on to Tanzania tomorrow.
“Both President Zuma and President
Obama have been seized with the Zimbabwe political crisis for some time now, in
their own respective ways. They are anxious that the current roadmap to
elections and democracy yields a less toxic body politic that will restore the
country’s standing within the international community.
“In that light, a discussion on
Zimbabwe and its political problems is a certainty, in the spirit of trying to
assist the long-suffering people of Zimbabwe,” a source told Daily News.
Mugabe and his murderous Zanu PF
thugs have got away, thanks to Tsvangirai and MDC’s breath-taking incompetence,
with not implementing any meaningful democratic reforms hence there is still no
free media and freedom of expression; the voters roll is still in a mess and so
hundreds of thousands will be denied a vote on July 31; etc. Still what the
tyrant and his thugs now know is that they will not get away with wanton
violence and “cooking up” election results as they did in 2008!
For a party that has always believed
“what was won by the bullet, cannot be changed by a ball-point pen!” and whose
leader has boasted of having “several degrees in violence” this election is going
to present a real challenge. After all these years of treating the Zimbabwean
electorate as if they were nothing but nincompoops to be cheated and beaten to
stop regime change. Now Zanu PF has to do this without cheating and wanton
violence with an electorate that hate the party for all the past abuse!
The US and the whole world is
watching Zimbabwe and they want to how Mugabe and Zanu PF can prevent regime
change without cheating and wanton violence!

"We as leaders occupy these spaces temporarily and we don't get so deluded that we think the fate of our country doesn't depend on how long we stay in office," Obama said. Well in Mugabe, the tyrant now thinks he is Zimbabwe and Zimbabwe is his person property to dispose of as he pleases.

People like Mbare are like Saddam's propaganda minister who kept talking about Iraq's superior army "driving the infidels" out of the country even when the infidels were already right inside Bagdad’s city gates! Some are too slow to see when the game is up or are simply in denial. There are always to be some rats that will go down with the sinking ship!

I agree Tsvangirai and MDC have been a great disappointment but it is important that we do not try to do too much. It is nice if one can kill two birds with one stone but past experience will tell you that you are more likely to miss them both. In this case getting Mugabe out of power is the top priority. An incompetent and blundering President Tsvangirai is easy to deal with. He has failed to bring democratic change but that does not mean we the people are going to stop at booting Mugabe out.
Remember, this election is about booting Mugabe out of power, concentrate on that. If it was legal to put donkey on the ballot paper, we could have done so and voted for the donkey instead of Mugabe. Mugabe is the target of this election; keep your eyes on that ball!
