ZIMBABWE'S President Robert Mugabe will respect the will of voters if they end his 28-year rule in a run-off election against opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai, the state-run Herald newspaper reported today.
Mr Tsvangirai beat Mugabe in the March presidential poll but failed to win an absolute majority. The run-off is planned for June 27.

One should accredit Mugabe's statement of accepting the result of the vote this time around with the same degree of honesty as G.W.Bush lying to the world that Saddam had WMD???

Any sane person at the time, even a somewhat gullible person with only one functional brain cell would have asked Bush how a tin pot dictator of a distant Middle-East country without resources, expertise or the logistical ability to possibly mount an attack on the USA be such a threat that an invasion was necessary!

In the same way only an equally gulliable person will believe that Mugabe will accept the result of an election that gives the victory and the Presidency presidency to the opposition!

Still, people believed Bush!!

The nuclear deterent is the only way anyone can stop the raping, murdering Americans from invading.

If Iraq had indeed possess the non-existant WMD the Americans would not have dared to invade and rape a 14year old Iraqi girl and proceed to murder 24 members of her family to cover up the Americans crime against humanity.

The lies that Bush told about Iraq has unequivalently established new ground rules for sovereign countries that are desirous of maintaining their sovereignity.

All countries not wishing to suffer the same fate as Iraq need to develop the nuclear deterent to protect them against America!
