I don't condone human rights violations in Zimbabwe - but, on the other hand, we cannot have an African perpetuating and accentuating selfish Western interests at the expense of his countrymen.

As Zimbabweans continue to suffer economic catastrophe and political crises, it is pertinent that Morgan Tsvangirai realises the blunder he inflicted on MDC members by becoming a puppet to the West.

How can he call for an African solution if he hardly listens to Africans?

One should not sympathise with a hypocrite like Tsvangirai because of the short-sighted decisions he took throughout negotiation processes.

How can you decline to engage in talks if you've been crying for talks?

He has undermined diplomatic efforts by President Thabo Mbeki.

Arthur Mutambara, a Zimbabwean at heart, dedicated himself to a more acceptable solution to his country's problems by making himself available for mediation talks.

If the MDC is to lead Zimbabwe, Mutambara will be most suited to become the leader.

Lastly, there is no quick fix in conflict resolution.

We need peace-building rather than peacekeeping since the latter might lead to regional insecurity.
