Morgan Tsvangirai pulls out of election
No surprise here. It's a dire situation that demands Mugabe's assassination. Mugabe rival quits election race Zimbabwe's opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai says he is pulling out of Friday's presidential run-off, handing victory to President Robert Mugabe. Mr Tsvangirai said there was no point running when elections would not be free and fair and "the outcome is determined by... Mugabe himself". He called on the global community to step in to prevent "genocide". But the ruling Zanu-PF said Mr Tsvangirai had taken the decision to avoid "humiliation" in the poll. The opposition decision came after its supporters, heading to a rally in the capital Harare, came under attack. Full story: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/7467990.stm

The assassination of dear old Robert should qualify under Dubya's Moral Cause heading. But of course, unfortunately, Zimbabwe has no oil...............................

My inside sources are telling me that the opposition is currently arming itself for civil war.
