In an an attempt to cow and intimidate people into voting, Zimbabwe's statesecurity agents had launched "Operation Red Finger" to identify if peoplehad voted by checking if they had indelible ink-stains on their finger.Those who had not voted could be beaten and forced to do so.

Hello,
In an opportunity to commit fairness to comments made about Mugabe and the current crisis in Zimbabwe, I would like you to consider the following from a white British man.
Until Mugabe forcefully implemented the land distribution process he had attempted to negotiate with the British Government for a period of 20 years. You will be well aware that the British obtain a good 70% of Zimbabwe's most arable land through bloodshed then sold that same land onto the Dutch to cultivate and produce agricultural businesses.
Jumping a century, have you recently wondered why the leader of the MDC though surrounded by African countries and leaders could not find a single African emabassy to shield him from Zanu-PF. I will put it to you that African leaders though clearly supportive of democracy do not favour that man. I will also put it to you that without the support of African leaders there can be no advancement for the MDC. African leaders are not stupid and history is indelible.
Ask the Jews. You cannot simply wipe away atrocities of the past and start from today.

The best way to get rid of Mugabe is for thousands of Zimbabwe citizens exiled in South Africa & other neighbouring countries to make a massive unified crossing of the frontiers back to their homeland.The Mugabe police can shoot down a few dozen,but they will soon realize that they will be overwhelmed and avenged.

Zimbabwe is free and always will be free, it does not matter what the imperialist white countries think. Mugabe is a great man.
