Mugabe Tries To Handle His Competition

Ah, yes Mugabe from Zimbabwe is performing the oldest trick in politics: if you are worried about your opponents taking power from you, just put them in jail!

The police in Zimbabwe are now holding 200 members of Mugabe's opposition party in jail and the UN Security Council is holding a closed session about the declining situation in Zimbabwe.

Mugabe's opposition party now has political control after the most recent election threatening Mugabe's power.

It is time to look at the real losers in this situation: those who still don't have access to food and medicine because of Mugabe's political aspirations.

Mugabe needs to allow change to take place rather than hold onto power.
