One vote one bullet

Mugabe has declared war with his own people by giving them a choice of 1 vote 1 bullet. Ngiyesabanews talking on phone with their correspondent, the opposition leader who had resolved that Zimbabwean people would be their own liberators and fight on, has been forced to pull out of the election and avoid a violent confrontation between his unarmed but determined supporters and Mugabe's thugs who are also funded from the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe and armed from state armouries. Morgan Tsvangirai sought refuge in the Dutch Embassy in the capital, Harare, following his withdrawal from this week's runoff presidential election. “It was a temporary refuge and we have had assurances from the Zimbabwe government regarding safety” He pulled out of the poll after 86 people died and 200,000 fled their homes because of what he called the state's ``violent retributive agenda.'' Tsvangirai said today he plans to leave the embassy in the next 48 hours. We don’t know where he will be heading.

The move sparked a call from Gordon Brown for the international community to refuse to recognise the result, despite Mr Mugabe's Zanu-PF party insisting it would push ahead with the poll on Friday. In a Commons statement, the Prime Minister said Britain would now be pressing for fresh sanctions against Mr Mugabe's inner circle - including travel bans and the freezing of financial assets held abroad.
The MDC won the parliamentary vote in March, and is widely believed to have won the first round of the presidential contest outright. Effective control of Zimbabwe is now in the hands of the heads of the army, air force, police and secret police, who form the Joint Operations Command. Meanwhile Tedai Biti the man facing the death penalty if he is found guilty of subversion and vote-rigging charges is stil in custody.
