    What makes it worse is that it does not look like a mistake, but rather a deliberate, calculated decision. How can you otherwise explain that the same thing is being repeated in South Africa. I have little doubt that for world leaders it was and still absolutely clear where South Africa is going to and what it is going to look like in 10-20 years and yet they do not intervene. The only conclusion that comes to mind is that the plan is to let it fail. But why?

    Mugabe must be incredibly gifted and intelligent. His skills must be far above and beyond those of any other human being. How else could he turn a prosperous country into a toilet bowl in
    about 30 years time? Not everyone could do that. We in the West sure made a dire mistake supporting him and letting Rhodesia fall. Sure, it wasn’t a perfect country but they would probably be much further along today if he wasn’t in power.

    There are targeted sanctions against about 200 corrupt ZANU and government officials and their businesses. And even these sanctions are not UN endorsed. They are only by US and EU countries. This is why ZANU thieves, line Grace Mugabe can still travel to China and other countries. The poverty in Zimbabwe is not because of ’sanctions’ that do not affect absolute majority of the people, but because ZANU destroyed private businesses and forced most of educated, productive people out of the country.

    Once again, specifically for those who still does not get it: there are no sanctions against ordinary Zimbabweans. They can freely travel where they want. Compare it with sanctions against Rhodesia: Rhodesian passport has not been recognised by any country except SA. There are no sanctions against fair Zimbabwean businesses; they can freely export or import products. Compare it with sanctions on Rhodesia: all exports to Rhodesia and almost all imports have been fully banned by UN resolution.

    You, my friend. Are incredibly brainwashed or stupid. Zimbabwe has nothing left to loot except the palace of Mugabe himself. He and his ZANU-PF party have released ads blatantly threatening death to anyone who opposed them, saying at the end “vote ZANU-PF and LIVE!” in addition to the fact that Mugabe has shown his willingness to bomb newspapers, and has a previous record of intimidation and frankly open war against other parties, Mugabe is clearly the culprit.

    lebambi I feel your pain. However, my advice is DON’T BE seen as “racists” who are simply attacking “whites or pinks” as you write! In this universe, I have learned to look at the heart, and NOT the skin color. Look at it today. Who has come to Zimbabwe’s Rescue? The first country to step out to pledge millions is Australia. Read today’s online news! US Pres Obama, a Black leader slapped Tsvangirai with another year of SATANIC SANCTIONS. Australia’s White leader is helping Zimbabwe today

    Zanaika1 The ENEMIES of the unity of Tsvangirai and Mugabe are the ones who did it, so that MORE CHAOS would prevail! The plan was meant to look as if MUGABE did it, and then those who want to RAID ZIMBABWE illegally again after the notorious SATANIC SANCTIONS, would find good reasons to ATTACK Zimbabwe! Mugabe had NOTHING to do with it! Either it is NATURAL cause, or due to “INTERNATIONAL ASSASSINS” who have continued to kill MANY AFRICANS like SAMORA MACHEL! We still remember!!

    Thee pinkfucker is a little ******* working for the pinks “whites” and now the pinks tried to kill him because he did what Africa wanted.

    The truck that hit the pinkfucker is a pink owned truck used by pink “white” from the USA and the UK.

    pink “white” puppet, you made a mistake to dance with pinks, those animals are worse than death.

    “Why would you write such hateful comments against PM Tsvangirai”

    I have never written hateful comments against Tsvangirai or else show me where I did. Mugabe and ZANU-PF is a different story. If Mugabe does not die soon, he will get an arrest warrant from International Criminal Court in Hague. Just like Sudanese president received it recently. Then it will take some time to arrest him, but in the end it will be done, same as in Karadzic or Milosevic cases. Just a matter of time. Inevitable.

    Znaika1 When one reads comments like the one you write, it sends a lot of question marks especially when MSNBC TV stated tonight about Assassination Death Squads sent to kill in 10 International countries. That is extremely frightful. Why would you write such hateful comments against PM Tsvangirai who has just lost his wife? Why attack Mugabe who has nothing to do with this accident too? That comment definitely is VERY Toxic and worrisome, when INTERNATIONAL ASSASSINS are said to be active NOW!

    “FALSE IMPRESSION that Mugabe is a MURDERER”

    Mugabe is a murderer and it is not a false impression. Even if this time it was not him, it does not exempt him from the murders of Rhodesian civillians and genocide of Ndebeles. He was and still is a murderer and, if survives until that day, will answer for his crimes in front of International Criminal Court in Hague. His place is behind bars.

    NeverGiveUpBoy: There is NO EVIDENCE that Mugabe did it. Those people who did NOT want to see the GNU succeed, are the ones creating the FALSE IMPRESSION that Mugabe is a MURDERER, just to confuse, & DIVIDE & CONQUER. Its well known that many of those who DID NOT want the unity between Mugabe & Tsvangirayi to succeed are the ones behind this! Stop bringing in Ian Smith at a time when the people are mourning the loss of a loved one! Smith has nothing to do with this & a renegade not to dream of!

    First time i heard about this accident,the first thing that popped into my head was that Mugabe probably had something to do with it.

    The puppet of our worse nightmare Tsangirai was suppose to die in that crash.

    the pink “white” animals dog is a drunker who drinks and drives that is why he crashed that car.

    the son of a ***** is so ugly no wonder he was born out of a *****.

    The man made a dash for Botswana as soon as he crossed the hospital door. Did not even bury his wife. Why was he on such a rush? Because he knows that it was not an “accident” and who will now better if not him?

    No, its not strange. And, yes, it could very well have been an accident. But given who’s in charge of that country with a human rights record not unlike Saddam Hussein and Kim Jong-il, its not difficult to find cruel intent where Mugabe is concerned, is it not?

    The first question you need to ask yourself is: Are Prime Minsters exempt from accidents?

    The second question you need to ask yourself is: Why did Morgan Tsvangirai himself, rule out any foul play?
