“Zimbabwe Today” by Robb WJ Ellis (23-09-2011)

WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Many, many years ago, I had the distinct displeasure of being on crowd control duty as a young Patrol Officer in Plumtree in the ZRP and Mugabe was giving his address. Anyone who has had the pleasure of living in Plumtree will know how hot it gets, so with the added agony of Mugabe sounding forth, it wasn’t a happy experience at all.

In a speech ranging from what he said were “illegal” sanctions imposed on Harare by Western nations to Palestine's desire for statehood, Mr Mugabe said it was sad that the international Criminal Court and the UN Security Council were being used by powerful countries to target leaders from the developing world, in particular African leaders.

Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe addressed the 66th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York Thursday attacking NATO countries for their “blatant, illegal, brutal, callous and murderous bombings” in Libya, helping the National Transitional Council topple Colonel Muammor Gadhaffi.

In a speech ranging from what he said were “illegal” sanctions imposed on Harare by Western nations to Palestine's desire for statehood, Mr Mugabe said it was sad that the international Criminal Court and the UN Security Council were being used by powerful countries to target leaders from the developing world, in particular African leaders.

Mr Mugabe expressed doubts that NATO's intervention in Libya would enhance democracy in the North African country.

Mugabe;s opinions about democracy are hugely misplaced seeing that he himself is a brutal and bloody dictator.

The escalating incidents of violence against the MDC-T took centre stage at the funeral of the late party founder, Diamond Karanda on Wednesday, as party officials called on their youth members to defend themselves, the way he did until his death.

Gangs of ZANU PF thugs have caused chaos in Harare over the last few weeks, assaulting legislators in parliament, market vendors, minibus operators and even police officers, with impunity.
The Chipangano gang from Mbare have achieved notoriety for their violent activities and have taken over many council-owned properties around the capital, controlling parking lots, bus ranks and market stalls.

This is entirely new. The MDC does not practise violence and their leader, Morgan Tsvangirai, has made that very obvious. However, with the increase in violence around the country (despite Mugabe publicly calling for the violence to stop), the party has little choice but to call on the MDC youth to protect and defend themselves when attacks occur.

At the funeral where thousands of MDC-T members were gathered, the party's vice national Chairman, Morgen Komichi, called on the youths to “help Harare” and to defend themselves against ZANU PF attacks.

“Harare is under siege and now ZANU PF thinks this is Uzumba. Let's rise up and get ready to defend ourselves if (Police Commissioner-General Augustine) Chihuri does nothing,” Komichi told the mourners.

Adding to this, the party's organizing secretary Nelson Chamisa said their youths are dying from injuries sustained in the attacks. “The ZANU PF youths last year declared they were taking over what ‘rightly belonged' to them,” Chamisa reminded the mourning crowd.

This is very interesting. ZANU PF bigwigs are threatening to expose Mugabe… I somehow don’t think that he’ll be having any of that, so his reaction will be most interesting.

Senior ZANU PF officials have threatened to expose President Robert Mugabe’s secret dealings with Western businessmen if he brings up the issue of their own clandestine meetings exposed in leaked US diplomatic documents.

ZANU PF secretary for administration Didymus Mutasa told the media ahead of Wednesday’s politburo meeting that the issue of “sellouts” exposed by the US organisation Wikileaks to have pursued a regime change agenda would be top priority at the meeting.

But the issue was inexplicably dropped from the agenda. The party elders then spent a long time deliberating the hero status of financier and politburo member, Kanthibai Patel, who died last week.

Mugabe is accused of dealing with British business people by proxy. The revelations that have thrown ZANU PF into turmoil implicated top officials, including vice Presidents Joice Mujuru and John Nkomo and Defence Minister Emmerson Mnangagwa.

Anything that throws ZANU PF into chaos os okay by me…

Relations between South Africa and Zimbabwe have been slowly deteriorating as the South African leadership has finally realised that events to their immediate North seem to have an adverse effect up their own economy and welfare.

South Africa's ruling African National Congress has blamed Zimbabwean leader, President Robert Mugabe's ZANU PF party for exporting violence through its inflammatory speeches that have been blindly adopted by its (ANC) youth league.

ANC secretary-general Gwede Mantashe, who is on a visit to Harare, accused ZANU PF of influencing the thinking and actions of its controversial national youth league president, Julius Malema.

The firebrand Malema has long declared economic war on whites and his calls for the nationalisation of mines have unnerved investors in Africa’s biggest economy.

Mantashe said the youth wing's inflammatory rhetoric is similar to that of Mugabe's party.

The ANC secretary was addressing senior ZANU PF members, Acting President, John Landa Nkomo, Vice President, Joice Mujuru, secretary for administration, Didymus Mutasa and national chairman, Simon Khaya Moyo at a meeting on Wednesday.

After the meeting Mutasa attempted to absolve his party.

Of course the Zimbabwean leader’s party will attempt to absolve themselves – it is what ZANU PF does. If they say it, then that is the end to the story. They are of the opinion that they – and they alone – speak the truth…

Take care.
