Tsvangirai says Mugabe should step down. "The question of age is catching up, the question of health is catching up. I am sure that advisably he would be in a position for the sake of the country, for the sake of his legacy, for the sake of his children to consider stepping down," Tsvangirai told a news conference.
Age and ill health (and his evil past) have certainly caught up with Mugabe; he would not be lording over us today if it was not for Tsvangirai’s naive stupidity to allow the dictator back in after the sham 2008 elections! Indeed Tsvangirai should get off his fat backside and finally address Zimbabwe's omnipresent cancerous problem of political violence. Tsvangirai has wasted years and countless opportunities waiting for Mugabe to step down and hand over power to him. And still he has not learnt that Mugabe has no intention of giving up power; it is not in the nature of a tyrant to do that, ever!

You are right, Tsvangirai should stop "sucking up" to Mugabe. Tsvangirai is a weak leader and has never had the confidence to stand up to Mugabe and Zanu PF and hence the need to appease.
It is naïve to think that the Zanu PF dictatorship will disappear the day Mugabe goes. Mugabe is but the one of the snake heads on the monster Medusa which is Zanu PF! Even if Mugabe goes, and signs are that he is going, I can not see Zimbabwe moving because Tsvangirai will be "sucking up" to Mujuru, Mnangagwa, Chihuri, and all the other Zanu PF thugs who make up the Zanu PF dictatorship!
What Zimbabwe needs to do desperately is to end the Zanu PF dictatorship and lawlessness and that requires a leader who will stand up not suck up to the dictatorship!

By signing the power sharing agreement with Mugabe in 2008, Tsvangirai gave Mugabe back all the tyrannical powers which the later has used to continue to intimidate and terrorise our people. The GPA was one sided from the word go and Tsvangirai was aware of that. And yet he still signed the agreement to appease Mugabe. Of course it was very naïve and stupid of Tsvangirai to have done so and it is ridiculous to call him a “peace-maker” for it!

There have been many very reliable accounts of serious human rights violations in the Marange diamond fields. I would believe MP Eddie Cross's that not all the money from the sell of the diamonds is properly accounted for. It is disappointing that the MDC’s own Deputy Minister of Mines, Chimamikire should dismiss the allegations on the spurious grounds that it is not ministry’s “responsibility to handle cash”. It is equally disappointing that Prime Minister Tsvangirai has too approved the lifting of the ban of Marange diamonds without proof that the human rights violations have stopped and that the nation will benefit from the sale and not individuals. But this is the confusion and contradictions we have come to expect from MDC!
