Dear Mr President
Mr President, after giving much thought to your role as a mediator between Mugabe’s ZANU-PF and the MDC and, I find it difficult to comprehend the logic of your pronouncements. You seem to be unwarrantedly casting the MDC as the culprit and yet it is palpable that it is the ZANU-PF militia with the connivance of the elements within the army who are turning wide swathes of the country into a war zone. Can you not see that Zimbabwe is in the throes of an endemic political crisis and with civil society rendered moribund?
The people of Zimbabwe are continuing to show defiance. They have unequivocally demonstrated their collective will through the ballot box. Zimbabweans in the Diaspora are banding together to show solidarity with the long persecuted country and urban dwellers now cowed through brutalization.
You have said in your report, “….the outside world can only but assist…”. Mr Mbeki, are you really an honest broker? As a close ally of Mugabe, you are not exerting that needed pressure to which alone could clear up Mugabe’s blinkered vision. You have boasted through media channels that you are the only leader who has spoken out against Mugabe on his own turf yet political victimization with the attendant death toll keep rising. Mr President, which side of the fence are you on?
May I end by saying Mr Mbeki; Zimbabwe is a perfect quaint-essential symbol of what an unfretted and ramshackle democratic framework can culminate in most especially if it is being presided over by a compulsive and inveterate tyrannical despot. So how many lives is it going to take for you to come clear? Very many innocents have been massacred, brutalized
and murdered. I think it is time you really had a long ‘chat’ with your bad fellow.
Yours - disgruntled Zimbabwean citizen,
N. A. Matambanadzo

AND HOW IS THIS BLOG FOR RACISM IN ALL ITS RAW BARBARIC STATE....READ THE COMMENTS ON THERE AS WELL.....HOW CAN A BLOG LIKE THIS BE ALLOWED ......SOUTH AFRICA SUCKS.
A FOOT NOTE....
MR.MBEKI THIS IS JUST ONE OF THE RESULTS OF YOUR ''QUIET DIPLOMACY'' AND ''NO CRISIS IN ZIMBABWE''.
This is Memory. Her story was told in an article published yesterday by the Daily Mail. It’s title: How one woman’s extraordinary bravery is a haunting rebuke to a world that is ignoring Mugabe’s genocide.
Her experience of torture at the hands of Zanu PF thugs is beyond ordinary imagination. Her lovely face, with its almost serene expression, also protects the reader from the horror of her experiences. And the editorial rigours of the mainstream media buffers us from the full awful truth: the images of Memory’s injuries have been considered too graphic - grotesque - by most to publish but I will because I want people to be shocked into action......PLEASE FOLLOW THE LINK TO HER STORY AND READ IT.......
YES THAT IS A PIECE OF WOOD THAT THEY JAMMED INTO THE VICTIM.
WE ARE NOW GOING THROUGH THE VIOLENCE AGAINST ZIMBABWEANS IN YOUR COUNTRY MR.MBEKI.....ONE OF THE NEAREST COUNTRY'S THAT ZIMBABWEANS CAN RUN TO TO TRY AND FIND WORK AND REFUGE HAS NOW TURNED INTO A DEATH TRAP FOR US ZIMBABWEANS....WHAT THESE SOUTH AFRICANS SEEM TO FORGET YOURSELF INCLUDED MR.MBEKI IS THAT THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF SOUTH AFRICANS DURING THEIR YEARS OF APARTHEID WERE WELCOMED AND PROTECTED BY SO MANY OTHER AFRICAN COUNTRY'S AND NOW SOME SOUTH AFRICANS ARE TURNING ON REFUGEES FROM THOSE COUNTRY'S AND KILLING THEM AND HACKING THEM INTO PIECES.......

I condeme what is happening in Zim and I hate that my brothers are suffering across the limpopo. and the fact that Mbeki can do more (though I’m not exactly sure what “more” is, besides military intervention), people of Zim are putting too much emphasis on Mbeki to change Zim. These people being tortured by Zanu-PF Pale in comparison to the amount of people killed during the apartheid struggle in SA. Yet South Africans fought on. They burnt and protested and died until the country was ungovernable. My point: Zim people are too placid and allow themselves to be walked over by a few. They must be strong and less reliant on Mbeki. He's obviously not going to come thru for you any other way but through his diplomacy. If you can’t wait for diplomacy to take its course, then burn, protest, get arrested, die. Make Zim ungovernable. All for your freedom. Stop asking Mbeki to do something about ZIm.
Hi there and thank you so much for taking the time to read the blog and leave a comment ....
I agree with you 100%.....the Zim problem has to be solved from within by the people at home.....
Mr.Mbeki could help the people by publically condeming ''mugabe'' for what he is doing...his silence is giving ''mugabe and zanu pf'' the power to carry on committing the violence.....
Once again thank you and blessings
