The biggest mistake was to fear Mugabe: no more!

Mugabe has successfully rigged the election - no one expected him to win more than a few votes and he has gone on to give MDC a run for their money in parliamentary elections. The same will be repeated in Senate election. MDC got just 2 more seats than Zanu PF. The same may happen with the Senate seats. As for the presidential race; he will certainly stop tsvangirai having a out right win and thus have a re-run.
He is walking talk and has every reason to look relaxed! He is now as confident as he has been for a long, long time. He will no doubt rein in his troups today- sharp. All the discord of the last few months will be a thing of the past. Now he has regained his authority and confidence he will face Tsvangirai head on!
Of course, he may even serve himself all the hassle and instruct the ZEC to declare him the winner.
As for Tsvangirai and the Zimbabwe populous he will punish them in his own way in his own sweet time- he is not a man to be trifled with nor is one to forget!
How he rigged the elections is now academic the fact is he did.
The world, more so Africa in the last 10 years, has refused to see Mugabe for what he is - a brutal dictator who will stop at nothing to have his way. Those who did see him for what he is; they sort to appease him.
If there is anything that is going to save Zimbabweans from further abuse and brutality at the hands of Mugabe and his henchmen it is to show him that we do not fear him. He may have rob us all the basic needs of life: food, fuel, water, opportunity to work, education for our children, etc. Many Zimbabweans lives have been lost as result of the economic collapse and others brutally murdered by his regime. He has crashed our dreams of peace and prosperity and hope of a better tomorrow for our children and posterity.
All we have left is our human dignity that uniquely human quality that has given the down trodden, the slaves, the strength to defy their oppressors and hold the heads high even in death! We are not animals and we MUST not let Mugabe have the satisfaction that he can treat us as such! Never, ever!
We must stand firm and let Mugabe know that he MUST GO. He has over stayed whatever good he has ever done. And that GO HE WILL. He must also know he WILL be held to account for what he did in the past and whatever else he does in the coming days!The biggest mistake we ever made was to fear Mugabe! Like all bullies and dictators fear them and they will make your life a living hell!
