Zimbabwe´s new government has been in office now for slightly over a week. We hear relatively little of what is going on in the country. Is that good news?
I don´t think so. I still believe that the MDC and Morgan Tsvangirai have been tricked and pressured into a lose-lose situation. Mugabe and his cronies, have kept all the key ministries, where real power resides.
Morgan and his followers, winners outright in the last elections, one might add, have the " social" ministries. That is, Mugabe has destroyed the country, and now Morgan is called upon to rebuild it, under the watchful eye of Mugabe himself!
The only real recourse Morgan has is to turn to the West and ask for help. Will we come to his rescue? Humanitarian aid is needed and will be, no doubt provided, but I think that none of us will accept that a man-made disaster goes without accountability, even retribution in some cases.
I have done it again! Write about Zimbabwe. It is on my mind far too much. Poor people....
