An editorial in the Herald newspaper in Zimbabwe suggested the formation of a unity government headed by Zimbabwe and mending relationship with the US and Britain. As I remarked in a previous post, Zimbabwe needs western aid and Mugabe knows Zimbabwe will not receive it as long as he is president. He will withhold the presidential results not because he lost badly but because Simba Makoni did not receive a substantial vote. The editorial, which many suspect was written by a senior ZANU-PF official, hints at future elections. These are not meant to be won by Mugabe, but to buy time to expose Makoni to the Zimbabwean people.
In other Zimbabwe-related events, the arms that were meant for Zimbabwe from China might not reach there by land, but the Chinese will find a way to fly them into Harare. I fail to understand why Americans would even chose to fight over such trivial matter.
Anyways, this was an I told you so thread and keep watching, the next president of Zimbabwe will be Simba Makoni.
