I recently wrote that this was an issue that Africans needed to solve. As much as I respect the leader from Botswana and some other leaders, I see we are dealing with silly politics that has no solution. Diplomacy is never going to deal with dictators, their military leaders, the heads of the police or the cronies of Mugabe. There will never be power sharing that amounts to anything. The people of Zimbabwe will continue to suffer and the leaders of Africa will wring their hands or turn a blind eye. Bring on the sanctiions. The people are desperate and the African leaders are ineffective. Power to the people, not the greedy, corrupt leaders that care only for themselves. May God rebuke those evil men and bless the downtrodden. Doesn't anyone really care about what is happening?

Laure...I hope you can also accept and agree to disagree with African leaders. Africa heads of state have chosen to disagree with the western powers. And it is fine to disagree with them, however, it is not right to to be abusive just because somebody disagree with you. The Western World is not "God" and as we saw in Iraq, the west (UK and USA) can be as wrong as anybody in the World. Especially under that low "IQ" Bush.

Africa heads of state represents it's population (One Billion people) must be respected for their decisions. Imperial British Colonial dictatorship would have sent an army to murder everybody who disagreed with her.

African heads of state also agreed that the election was not free or fair and that a GNU must be formed, but do you think Mugabe will let the MDC anywhere near power?

The African Union is based on 54 independent countries and not a “United States of Africa” as such negotiations and discussions are always necessary. African leaders have not failed Zimbabwe, nor have their positions been weakened. Forcing your way by military force in Zimbabwe may actually delay the demise of Robert Mugabe. The invasion of the USA/UK into Iraq has delayed democracy in that country for another 100 years. There is a lot of cheap talk about using force in Zimbabwe, without the critical analysis of the consequences. The history of Africa shows that countries that have gone thru the same things Zimbabwe is going thru, (Nigeria, Ghana, Liberia, Mozambique, Uganda, Kenya, Rwanda) have pulled themselves out of the problem, without help from the western world. Anglos talk a great deal about force, but there is very little evidence of it working anyway in Africa, or where the UK was involved in and there was success! So why the big talk?

It is so sad you are still riding on that wagon of blindness trumpeting such comfused recitation. Were you around when Zimbabweans were feeding themselves pre and early Mugabe leadership. Zimbabweans are starving as a result of your father Mugabe and you should be ashamed of this. African leaders have morgaged their integrity by being mute about this. How can these leaders sit with Mugabe and discuss poverty eradication when Mugabe has made millions of Africans hungry and refugees. Most leaders in Africa and you don't worth the salt you eat. Sanctions against Mugabe and his bunch of Animals should be put in place and any of them who leave that country should be arrested and charged for crimes against humanity. May the good lord forgive your soul, you IDIOT.

Tommyhamwa, you are actually the ultimate anglo idiot! who thinks that people should only follow your way of thinking. You think your words are finally. But that's the "bastard" we see in white anglos, whose thoughts on Africa and Zimbabwe are way out of line with current thinking.

Your urgency about Zimbabwe is hyperbolic and your ratting just do not reflect reality at all!! People must discuss issues. African leaders do disagree and that is absolutely fine! Africans do not live to validate anglo views. We have our own views. If somebody disagrees with you, you view him as pro-mugabe. That kind of thinking is actually rotten and colonial and reflects white supremacy views.

Most white anglos are not even wanted nowadays on African issues. You do not realize just how far away you are now. What problems has the anglos or EU solved in Africa? Rwanda, DRC,Kenya, Nigeria, Sudan? What the hell are you talking about!

The anglos also have their own problems with the EU. UK is not necessary beloved by fellow europeans. African leaders have not failed...there are differences of opinions, that bastards like you should respect!!!

What kind of a lamemass, evil, disrespectful of Africans comment is this nuts writing. It's a shame that in this age and time, idiots like him rule Africa. The issue of Zimbabwe today is not about Africa standing up against the West forced imposition of its ways on the Africa. It's the issue evil, African killers Mugabe who should have been sentenced to death several years ago manipulating the so called leaders of Africa, who themselves much innocent blood on their hands, who will do anything to hold on to their ill-gotten power no matter how many precious African lives are lost for one reason: it enables them to enjoy the role of God over unfortunate Africans. Evil must be stopped now and forever and those who plays God over people should be killed at all cost because the essence of human beings can only be maintained when we, every individuals on the face of the earth, can exercise the freedom that all knowing God gave us and never intervene us in exercising it. Let no evil dictators play God's role over nobody and let old dying men like Mugube and his associate evil dictators in much of Africa, Asia and Latin America and the rest of the world have no say over the future of any nation, any group or any individuals.
