The
British backed Zimbabwe Democracy Trust
is calling for intervention if Mugabe wins:
Mugabe stole this election long ago – it only remains to be seen if Morgan Tsvangarai, and the people of Zimbabwe can, through an overwhelming vote, snatch it back
So this means that a Zanu victory is ipso facto evidence of vote rigging? The election can only be fair if the right candidate wins?
The Zim government have also
chucked out the main EU observer (which has been
backed by other African governments), while the EU threatens
sanctions. Are they delaying the sanctions until the final couple of weeks until the election, and wouldn't this itself be interfering with the election?
Meanwhile Canadian Police are
investigating the so called
murder plot.
The
Independent has a story about how Mugabe is almost becoming Blair-like in his paranoia, he's even
arresting priests.
Economic hardship stalks the land, with
mining in trouble and
starvation looming.
The MDC
threaten civil war if their leader is arrested, while the police
break up demonstrations, and a teacher was beaten to death for reading the
MDC's unofficial newspaper.
