The whole SADC and the world, and the Zimbabwean government for that matter know that there is no such training facilities for Zimbabwean rebels in Botswana, and the SADC leader, President Kgalema Motlanthe of South Africa has told this to the world. Please Mugabe, in the name of God,leave these innocent people alone and allow His people to live.

Thus speaks justice, classically founded justice, blind justice: rocking justice, which is music to the soul, music as sothing to the souls as Sibelius' Violin Concerto in D Major and as vigorous as Beethoven's Grosse Fuge.

Mano o mano.

Polite;

When Motlanthe made the comment you refer to he was concerned more about maintaining SADC unity than about facts. We, therefore, shouldn’t read much into that statement as it was a political statement made by a politician. The learned magistrate made the decision to remand Manyere in custody based on FACTS and the articles clearly says that “the state had established reasonable suspicion that the accused committed the alleged offences”. This is what is important and not any statement coming from any quarter, whatsoever.

When you say, "We, therefore, shouldn’t read much into that statement as it was a political statement made by a politician," are you expressing the idea that politicians sometimes say things that they don't rightly believe to be true in their heart, but that they must say to support their political position?

This idea implies that politicians sometimes twist the truth, such as the current unelected president of Zimbabwe claiming that he is rightfully elected, that there is no cholera and that Zimbabwe is his and his alone. I'd say all of those are wishfully political statements; but not moral statements, and certainly none of them are true.

So if politicians don't always speak the truth then we cant 'really trust anything they say huh? So why do you believe everything Mugabe says?
