POLITICAL SITUATION IN ZIMBABWE

There isn’t anything the matter with EU and USA except that Mugabe is viewing it through a vision impaired by self-preservation. Poise has been disturbed and nerves have been racked, and fever has rendered men irrational; sometimes there have been draughts upon the dangerous cup of barbarity and men have wandered far from safe paths. In the New Zimbabwe, we will feel the reflex, rather than the hurting wound, but we will still think straight, and we mean to act straight, and mean to hold firmly to all that was ours when madness involved us, and seek the higher attainments which are the only compensations that so supreme a tragedy may give mankind. Zimbabwe’s present need is not heroics, but healing; not nostrums, but normalcy; not revolution, but restoration; not agitation, but adjustment; not surgery, but serenity; not the dramatic, but the dispassionate; not experiment, but equipoise; not submergence in internationality, but sustainment in triumphant nationality. It is one thing ...

Court testimony showed that Mugabe knew for years that Zimbabwe's first president, Canaan Banana, was abusing males on his staff and yet did nothing to stop it. The late Banana, who died in 2003, was jailed in 1999 after being found guilty of 11 counts of sodomy and abusing his power to engage in "unnatural acts" with men, including many who were on his presidential staff. Actually the crime of Banana was, the fact that he expressed intent   to`come in the open`. In so doing he was going to reveal the sexual activities between him and Robert Mugabe. Jonathan Moyo, another ZANU PF member, who is well known to be gay, was seen on numerous occasions together with Mugabe in a sexually suggestive manner. A Mugabe AID testified seeing Mugabe and Moyo sharing a hotel room in Singapore in November 2007.

MUGABE IS IN FACT HOMOSEXUAL Banana, a combative theologian who once proposed “to rewrite the bible”, was an imposing challenger for Mugabe who was battling dwindling popularity in early 90´s . A CIO agent Jefta Dube came up and accused Banana of sodomizing him. The theologian was humiliated, tried, jailed and finished. There are those who speculate that his obsession with homosexuality and vice which was one of the first symptoms of his breakdown is an aspect of his old-school missionary Catholicism, but no! As Mugabe was in prison during the Smith regime, he shared a cell with Banana, it is said that homosexuality was practiced in that cell, and this fact was and still is common knowledge to most in ZANU PF, a close unnamed source could reveal. The source goes further to state that the hatred that Mugabe has towards Homosexuals, is mere hypocrisy and grand standing on his part. WORDWARRIOR  

The principles to which I will adhere as an upcoming leader are rooted deeply in the foundations of our national life. The solutions which I propose are based on experience and on a consciousness that I may have the responsibility for placing these solutions in action. I will endeavor to outline the spirit and ideals by which I would be guided in carrying that platform into administration. I will not deal with the multitude of issues which have been already well canvassed by others in opposition to our common tyrant. I intend rather to discuss some of those more fundamental principles and ideals upon which I believe the Government of the New Zimbabwe should be conducted.   We will build a party of progress that always reflects the spirit of the Zimbabwean people. I say with emphasis that without the wise policies which we intend to bring into action during my tenure, no such progress would ever be possible under the current regime. The first responsibility of my Administra...

  Robert Mugabe has survived for so long because he is clever and more ruthless than any other politician in Zimbabwe. To give the devil his due, he is a brilliant tactician and has long thrived on his ability to abruptly change the rules of the game, radicalise the political dynamic and force everyone else to react to his agenda. However, he is fundamentally hampered by several factors: his ego and belief in his own infallibility; his obsessive focus on the past as a justification for everything in the present and future; his deep ignorance on economic issues (coupled with the belief that his 18 doctorates give him the authority to suspend the laws of economics, including supply and demand); and his essentially short-term, tactical style. While his tactical skills have kept him in power for 27 years, over the last seven this has only been achieved by a series of populist, but destructive and ultimately self-defeating moves. In reaction to losing the 2000 referendum on the const...

IGADE ZIMBABWE 5TH BRIGADE The Fifth Brigade was an elite unit of specially trained Zimbabwean soldiers. The Fifth Brigade was formed in 1981 and disbanded in 1988 after allegations of brutality and murder during the Brigade's occupation of Matabeleland. It was reformed later and was active in 2006 at least. In October 1980, President Robert Mugabe signed an agreement with the North Korean President, Kim Il Sung, that they would train and equip a brigade for the Zimbabwe National Army. In August 1981, 106 North Koreans arrived to train the new brigade. The members of the Fifth Brigade were drawn from 3500 ex-ZANLA troops, including two unintegrated ZANLA battalions, at Tongogara Assembly Point. There were a few ZIPRA troops in the unit initially, but they were withdrawn before the end of the training. It has been reported that there were also some foreigners in the unit, possibly Tanzanians. The training of Fifth Brigade lasted until September 1982, when Minister Sekeramayi a...

The man/woman who is to be in command of Zimbabwe must be able to reason logically, to understand human character and goodness in their various forms, and to understand the emotions-that is, to name them and describe them, to know their causes and the way in which they are excited. In the art of problem solving, it is paramount that one understands and accepts there is a problem. It is from this that a solution can be devised. The same can be applied on Zimbabwe, we have a lot of incompetent leaders, who feel, the problems of Zimbabwe are of foreign origin. Mugabe, like other dictators, is surrounded by mediocre opportunists and lackeys; men and women with little competence and integrity, who maintain their positions through patronage, nepotism and boot-licking. These securocrats, who have become as dogmatic and delusional themselves, imitate, as best as they can, his intolerance. The Zimbabwean president must understand that, he who is blinded by ambition raises hi...
