Zimbabwe Freedom Movement a Phoney Mugabe Front

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.

Zimbabwe Freedom Movement a Phoney Mugabe Front

[Note. I received the following from someone connected closely to Zim. This comes from the DAILY NEWS. From what I have seen of the video footage of the ZFM, I firmly believe this is a false front created by Mugabe himself. Anyone who dares join them will actually be committing suicide. In the early days of Russia, Lenin created a fake opposition using a former enemy (who had turned). They lured many anti-communists into this organisation and later slaughered some and sent the rest to Siberia. This could easily be a trick by ZANU PF to create a false “Armed Wing” – suck people into it – and then later get rid of them. Or, to also accuse the MDC of trying to wage a war.

Furthermore, I know for a fact, from direct contact with well-placed blacks in Zimbabwe that any soldier who is suspected of being slightly disloyal disappears in the middle of the night at the hands of Military Intelligence – never to be seen again.

If anyone truly had the desire to get rid of Mugabe, why would they broadcast it like this to the world? And why is he still alive? And why isn’t Mugabe himself panicking is soldiers, police and intelligence are conspiring against him? In my opinion, this is a definite trick and the claims of the ZFM are bogus.

I think they chose Peter Tatchell to release this because he is such a well-known opponent of Mugabe – and in effect, they are playing a trick on him. Jan]

ZFM a ZANU PF front: analysts
Date:17-Nov, 2003

A SHADOWY organisation launched in London last week in a bid to topple
President Robert Mugabe’s government could be a ruling ZANU PF ploy
to distract Zimbabweans from the country’s worsening economic
crisis, analysts said this week.

The group, which calls itself the Zimbabwe Freedom Movement (ZFM), is
led by a commander known as Charles Black Mamba and his two deputies, Ntuthuko Fezela and Daniel Ingwe.

It claims to comprise former members of the Zimbabwe National Army,
airforce and other state security departments.

In a communique issued on its website, www.zfm.cc, the group says:
“Zimbabwe Freedom Movement believes that since we have not achieved
democracy by peaceful means, despite the best efforts of the only
viable opposition party in Zimbabwe, it is necessary to place the
illegitimate President and government of Zimbabwe on notice that
they are about to be removed by the judicious use of appropriate
force.”

But opposition politicians and heads of civic groups interviewed this
week said the new organisation could be the brain-child of the
Zimbabwean government, aimed at diverting the attention of a restive
population from food, fuel, electricity and transport shortages.

Opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) national youth
chairman Nelson Chamisa said the ZFM could be a ruling ZANU PF front that the government might attempt to link to the MDC.

He said: “While it is possible that some disgruntled Zimbabweans could
resort to anything to bring about regime change, something tells me
that this is an organisation which was formed by the ZANU PF
government so that it can link it to the MDC and accuse it of
operating an armed wing.”

Analysts pointed out that the language used in the ZFM’s communique
was similar to that adopted by the MDC.

For instance, the ZFM refers to “Robert Gabriel Mugabe and his government… illegitimately ruling our Zimbabwe and because they know that they are illegitimate and that the majority of the people want change, they have chosen to rape and pillage our country before they re-take their leave.”

Political commentators said phrases such as “illegitimate” and “change” were commonly used by Zimbabwe’s main opposition party.

National Constitutional Assembly (NCA) chairman Lovemore Madhuku said:
“That is a non-existent group which is just after getting media
attention. It is possible that this is an attempt by the government
to test the people’s feelings by forming a non-existent armed group.”

He added: “What those people in the Zimbabwe Freedom Movement are
doing is a mockery to the brave people in the MDC and NCA who have
been waging a legitimate fight against the regime. The ZFM should
not be given serious attention as they could be an extention of the
Zimbabwean government, desperate to divide those who want
Zimbabweans freed. Zimbabweans should not be misled.”
