You are all just making small talk. Mugabe will be in power till the day he dies. Condemning him just makes him more determined to outwit anyone who challenges him. I must say that Morgan Tsvangirai surprised many by signing the document before the small print was written on it.

Mutambara was planted in MDC by ZANU PF to split it so he was always expected to sign. There is no solution to mugabe unless the army revolt and the police follow. This will not happen as long as he keeps paying them with worthless bits of paper.

The first comment is right you hit the nail on the head. Mugabe is the most selfish man that this world has known. It is only about him and what he want’s for himself.
He blameds everyone else for what he has done. Mogan must stand up for the people as he his their voice in this deal.

You’ve hit the nail on the head. The man is not reliable.He plays the game of stretching you, buying time for himself, until you give in; like what the MDCT has done. The MDCT acknowledges that they have had to compromise on some demands; really? What are those worthles demands you could do without? I would advise the MDCT not to tire or compromise for genuine democracy. Match the man to his antics and unmask them.Soon he is the one to give in.You have to be patient.

The AU & SADC should show character. Its not too late for them to unmask the charade that Mugabe’ government is. African leaders must just insist on the right thing to happen.
1.Reject the shame June 2008 one man election
2.Accept Tsvangirayi’s March 2008 election victory and allow him to form the government.
The AU & SADC will have to be the authority to ensure that this happens. I’m sure they can handle a small country like zimbabwe.Assistance can be secured from the UN if the task is beyond their depth.

> Mugabe must be condemned, isolated and given
> the pariah status he deserves.

Sigh. We all know he will be praised, congratulated and hailed as a great leader.

Interesting that Jacob Zuma seems to have turned 180 degrees and now appears to taking Robert Mugabe’s side on the impasse.
