This will change nothing, the election is already won by Bob and Zimbabwe will continue it's slide into total anarchy. Nothing can stop it. Not even the death of Bob or half the leadership of the Government. They have too strong a grip on the country. Zimbabwe is headed back into the days of Shaka and the only difference will be that there will be Chinese guns instead of spears. Mbeki, watch South Africa is next. You have 10s of thousands of refugees amongst your millions of poor, both just waiting to rise up and over throw your oh so civilized society. The attacks on foreigners is only the start. I tell the West to keep it's hands off, as it is the only way that Africans will be able to have a made in Africa solution to the problems of Tribal Violence. Let the forests run red with blood, to feed the tree that will be a new Africa emerging out of the dark age to come.

I think thats a pretty fair reflection what will probably happen. Zimbabwean MDC supporters will flood into South Africa. More violence in South Africa as the Zimbabweans compete for the very few jobs, and the same will apply to the other bordering countries of South Africa. And the whole SADC will have done nothing to stop it. So they are meeting? What are they going to do? Voice their disapproval again? Very short sighted approach, and they will have the blood on their hands.
