MDC Pulls out of Zimbabwe run-off "election"

Our president is a disgrace to our country. South Africa, as the biggest economic and military powerhouse in Africa could bring Mugabe to heal within 24 hours tops. We could switch off the lights in Zimbabwe as we supply it with electrical power. All rail would come to a stop as we just recall all our rolling stock. We close our borders denying access to our ports and goods. We call up our loans and when these are not met we attach any and all assets of theirs we can get our hands on. And last but not least, as a member of the UN Security Council, we pull our diplomatic head out of our proverbial a**e and stop siding with Russia in protecting him.

Having said all that, I am not sure pulling out of the election was a wise move. I say that simply because that is exactly what Mugabe wants - and doing what he wants cannot be good thing.
