    ...
    Are you suggesting that the 8 million + Zimbabwean refugees in SA will suddenly all leave and go home?

    We tried that once in the past already. The Rhodesians rejected it.

    BBC is reporting that the ANC says it will not intervene to end the crisis unfolding in neighbouring Zimbabwe.
    ANC Secretary-General Gwede Mantashe told a press conference on Tuesday that the party would be concerned if "things go wrong there because it will impact on us".
    "But we have no authority over them. That’s the point we are making,” he said.
    But we were happy to do it in Lesotho.

    This from CNN:

    A former political aide to ex-Zimbabwean Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangari called the military's actions "unprecedented."
    "You call a frog by any other name, but it will still be a frog. This a coup by any other name," Alex Magaisa, who now lectures at Kent University in the United Kingdom, told CNN.
    "They are being very careful in their words," Magaisa said of the military. "They might be trying to give a fig leaf to the notion that President Mugabe is still the leader. But de facto they are obviously the military force."

    Hopefully we will finally see the end of the old fart and his witch.
