Prime Minister in Zimbabwe Boycotts Unity Government

Three weeks ago, I gave two interviews to international radio stations on the state of Zimbabwe. In one of the interviews I expressed the hope that Zimbabwe might be on the path to recovery; Morgan Tsvangirai, I said, should be given time to begin to redress the wrongs of the past three decades of Mugabe's reign of darkness. I earnestly prayed that my dear friends in Zimbabwe would finally have a taste of better life. Boy, oh, boy, how mistaken was I, to begin to hope. Wasn't I?
I need not tell you that I was depressed by this New York Times News.

By the way, have you read my novel, The Trial of Robert Mugabe? Enjoy
