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.

My Liberal pal told me he heard Morgan Tsvangirai being interviewed. They asked him how the “Official Opposition” in Zimbabwe feels about affairs. Morgan then told them, he is not the “Official Opposition” – he is the President of Zimbabwe!! My friend and I chuckled with enjoyment. I really like this new Morgan Tsvangirai!
Then my friend started saying that Morgan should start a Government in exile. In World War II there were lots of Governments in exile. The French, Polish, Czechs, Dutch and others had governments in exile.
I said to him: WOA! I was the first person to come up with that idea, back in 2005 in fact! I wrote about it at length. Here it is: A Practical Plan to rid Zimbabwe of the Mugabe Tyranny
Recently, I reminded people about it, here: Zimbabwe: Is Mugabe on the attack? War? Is he about to unleash unprecedented violence & murder?
My friend and I discussed the idea. I told him that my thoughts about it were that the MDC could move into exile somewhere and in this modern age, could even use the Internet & radio to keep in touch with Zimbabweans and to even TAX THEM!!! They could even give orders and instructions to Zimbabweans. Remember as much as half of the population does not live in the country – maybe even more.
Then my friend added a bunch of really good thoughts to this idea. He said to me that since the Western world and even the UN recognise that the MDC won, the MDC could, “As the Government in exile”, follow the ANC’s route and ask the WORLD to boycott Mugabe. The UN could even go and INSTRUCT neighbouring states to take certain actions against Zimbabwe – e.g. boycott or stop certain traffic. In short, the MDC uses its “official position” as the duly elected representative and govt of the masses of Zimbabwe to ask the Western world, and nations of the UN to take certain actions which are enforced by UN resolutions or by international law.
It should be easy too for the MDC to get offices in one or more countries and they could even ask for certain assistance from Govts.
I told my friend that my original idea had been that the MDC should TELL MUGABE that he is ILLEGALLY IN POWER and that he has X number of days to vacate his offices, OR ELSE, the MDC will start taking action to force him out.
I told my friend that my original thoughts were that the MDC could then turn to the West and ask for military assistance. (Of course, now, with its new-found credibility, the MDC could go to the UN and ask for the UN to constitute a military force to oust Mugabe). But back then, I was thinking of the MDC forming its own army and getting the weapons, money and technical specialists from the West.
The final problem is for the MDC to then find an appropriate base in Africa from which to launch the attacks to free Zimbabwe. That is a complex problem, and I would prefer not to discuss that too much.
Given the massive credibility gain of the MDC recently, I think the MDC could get the UN and much bigger organisations than SADC and the AU to back it.
I really liked the move where the MDC went beyond the SADC nations to the AU. Very nice. They could probably go directly to the UN.
As my friend and I discussed the new possibilities for the MDC we felt that there is MASSIVE SCOPE now for the MDC.
We know Mugabe is busy “recounting votes”. Translation: his FLAGRANT CHEATING WAS NOT ENOUGH TO WIN THE FIRST TIME SO HE IS CHEATING MORE THOROUGHLY THIS TIME so as to “win”.
The MDC must reject the results, and just continue on its path. It must take this issue to the UN.
In military strategy there is the concept of “initiative”. Military historians talk about this a lot. The MDC needs to continue remaining bold. For years now, Mugabe has always seized the initiative and the MDC has always just gone along with it. That is a sure fire way to lose! Mugabe dictates the game. Mugabe always lands the first punch.
In South Africa, the Liberals are in the same spot. The ANC always seizes the initiative and the ANC dictates the rules of the game. This is why the ANC will always beat them. The DA will never win.
The MDC is now starting to seize the initiative. It is not Mugabe’s lap-dog any longer. This is BRILLIANT. Now those guys are playing the game in a way THAT THEY CAN WIN. Of course it means confrontation, etc – but that is the only way to defeat Mugabe. In the end, it will boil down to force, will-power, etc. But this is the only hope. The MDC must just continue playing its game and remembering there is no need to grovel before either Mugabe or Mbeki. They’ve WON – and the world saw it. Mugabe and Mbeki can lie as much as they want – nobody believes them anymore anyway. Mbeki’s credibility has been totally destroyed in the last month.
My friend and I then hit on an idea which we both really liked. Since the MDC has WON and most of the world has seen it clearly – the MDC should consider asking MAJOR COUNTRIES to “officially recognise them as the duly elected Govt of Zimbabwe”. For example, the USA should make a PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT THAT IT RECOGNISES Tsvangirai as the President of Zimbabwe, and the rest of the nations in the UN should PUBLICLY STATE THIS.
Then it is not a case of the MDC or Morgan saying, “I am President”. Then, it is the Govts of the USA, France, Germany, Britain, Japan, etc stating it OFFICIALLY IN PUBLIC. Perhaps the whole UN could even vote on it?
If this is done, then Mugabe can talk out his ass as much as he wants, and the MAJORITY of the countries of the world will inform him that he is illegally occupying his position. His representatives can then be turned away from the UN, and MDC representatives can take Zimbabwe’s place at the UN and any other international meetings!!! His ambassadors can be thrown out of countries and the MDC can appoint its own ambassadors to occupy Zimbabwe’s embassies around the world! The MDC, with the legal backing of the UN can then actually take control of everything that belongs to Zimbabwe OUTSIDE ZIMBABWE!!
That way, in double-quick time, all of Mugabe’s “representatives” are thrown out of international conferences too. And when the EU or others want to meet with African leaders, and Mugabe tries to gate-crash – the Police can FORCIBLY THROW THEM OUT AND MORGAN TSVANGIRAI can walk in as the President of Zimbabwe to represent Zimbabwe! Think about how many times Mugabe has gate-crashed foreign events. He can fly there, and the Police can arrest him and his body guards! They can forcibly kick him OUT! They can use FORCE to prevent his entry and to let Morgan Tsvangirai and other MDC representatives in!!! Wouldn’t that be too cool?
The more I think about the Government in exile idea, the more I like it. I think it has MASSIVE POSSIBILITIES. It will also be an incredible blow to Mugabe and his assorted trash. Imagine what a blow it will be to their morale. They will feel isolated in a way they never felt before. It could help to make some of their structures weaken. When they see that the WHOLE WORLD, or the UN is firmly on the MDC’s side and is willing to back it up with money, diplomatic and other actions it will really scare them. (It will send shockwaves through the ANC who rule South Africa too… and I will love every minute and second of it).
The MDC’s actions in the last few weeks have been been really great and I want to see them winning like mad. Its about time the honest side won. I am so sick to death of seeing liars and thieves winning. They must just keep on seizing the initiative and putting Mugabe on his back foot. He’s never experienced that before. And that is the way the most brilliant leaders in the world won in past ages. Never just accept what your enemy hands you. Make some counter moves and land some good hard punches and send him reeling.
Why negotiate? Why not WIN OUTRIGHT for a change? It can be done. Its been done before many times in history.
Morgan’s statement the other day that he will throw Mugabe in jail for abuse of power was brilliant. No more of this wussified wanking around… Now its a case of telling Mugabe where the hell to get off. TWO CAN PLAY AT THE SAME GAME. Until now, Mugabe thought he was the only player. He needs to see that there is another side and they will match his every move with a counter-move.
You get the same thing in South Africa. The ANC thinks it can do anything it wants with impunity. It has never faced real opposition, not from the DA and not from the old NP or the “new” NP. The ANC doesn’t know what a real opposition is like.
When Mugabe faces someone tough, and he is matched, and outmanoevred, you’ll see he is not as tough nor as good as he thinks he is. He thinks he’s God. He just needs a good opponent who will whip his ass good.
Deep down, Mugabe is actually a complete coward. I’ve observed him for a long time. I reckon that Mugabe is actually an utter coward. If you land the right blow, I think Mugabe will crap in his pants. But the MDC must not be stupid about it. They must fight to win – completely. It is doable.
