easily. mugabe knows no fairness, and only one-sidedness. plus he can wield his sword/country like he wants to.
South Africa’s biggest forum. Discuss, discover, and connect with thousands of members.
zanu pf probably had pre approval for the ANC before the land grabs even started in 2000... they are partners in crime after all
im sure he quit for a good reason. blackmail? threats?
there is no answer, africa will just ignore the situation like they done for a long time now
end of zim, start of the end of South Africa
more and more zims into the country more and more possibility of xenophobia far beyond what we have seen so far
Wow. In two short posts you displayed completely your lack of undesrtanding the political situation in Zim and labelled the one man that nearly broke Robert Mugabe a coward.he was 5 days away from election, he choses now to listen to the deaths threats?
rubbish he has no back bone

Just for the record, Morgan Tsvangarai would probably not have survived the week had he remained in the run off. His (and his party's) deputy is in jail to be tried for treason, the penalty if found guilty being death. Having been himself arrested several times in the past few weeks alone, it's pretty clear moves were afoot to silence him by any means possible. Death threats when coupled with sinister arrests and violence is probably enough to break any real man. Robert Mugabe came out clearly that Zanu-PF (and therefore by proxy the Zim government) will not accept any other outcome except a Mugabe victory.
How long do you think you'd last in that situation? Tsvangarai probably lasted longer than most would ever have dreamed. Don't pretend to know human nature when you probably have no freaking idea.
Ummmm, where exactly did he say that?I don't know where you got all that rubbish, Sir Lancy-e-poo says there's no problem in Zim and he's always right!
*hangs head in shame*It was tongue in cheek![]()
Bravo!! Someone actually reads ALL the news. Others need to look up a few Zim blogs and get a real sense of what is going on in that country. Most ordinary people on the ground were begging for the MDC to pull out, and those brave and defiant in the face of the violence would have gone through hell to vote, only to find that their votes were never going to count!
Mugabe said it himself, the ballot is now up against the bullet. Why should MDC sit around waiting to lose to a completely rigged run-off, more people dying, simply to allow BOB to gain credibility from a farce of an election???
I think what Tsvangarai has achieved, in showing the world the proof of what is happening, will be his victory. Finally most AU and SADC countries are speaking out (our honourable president excepted) and the EU, US and UK are threatening stronger sanctions. That's what brought the Ian Smith Government to their knees, and the SA National Party too. So maybe Tsvangarai is playing the smarter game here long term?
Who are you to call anyone a coward?smarter because he scared he will get jailed or killed
COWARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he has bob beat but he is scared
sometimes bad things need to happen to turn a country around, a country just needs a hero who is willing to die for the country
in the long run the MDC could have changed zimbabwe, all he has shown is that bob's actions are working, the rest of the world might have done something had he won and then mugabe refused to step down
now bob is untouchable again, all morgan has done is show that strong handed tactics work with weak ppl
COWARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i feel so sorry for all those supporters who have been beaten, killed and starved, it was all for nothing
he could have run and lost and maybe these supporters might have felt better, he has betrayed the ppl of zimbabwe
all those supports will not live a good life now, thats for sure
he gets all these ppl to support him and then drops out just before the election!!!!!
COWARD
stronger sanctions are nothing but a joke, they only hurt the ppl of zimbabwe
