Of irascible liberators

TOP del.icio.us

I couldn’t help but laugh at what can only be described as unintelligent remarks attributed to Zanu PF chair Simon Khaya Moyo – yes the one with a stuffed face that tells you he only knows hunger from news reports – who actually said: “you don’t provoke the military, let’s not pretend that our own security forces are not sensitive to insults. They have been insulted and when they respond let us not cry foul. They are not only security forces but liberators.”

I would love to hear Paul Themba Nyathi’s response!

You see Paul Themba Nyathi recently reminded one Chris Mutsvangwa that he (Paul) also fought for the liberation of Zimbabwe and he is not Zanu PF!

And Paul Themba Nyathi and Simon Khaya are both supposedly ex-ZAPU! Irony of ironies.

So much for Simon to try and tell Paul that he should be grateful for being liberated by people who are today blocking Paul and other progressives on their march to a liberated Zimbabwe, 33 years after Zanu PF handed back the country to black Zimbabweans! What bollocks.

Yet as polls approach, we can be sure of such wild statements that one day will only expose the futility of trying to reverse a revolution whose time has come.

But then Zanu PF knows a revolt as a violent takeover, yet these polls are an opportunity for a “peaceful revolution” of sorts that will serve as a rather painful reminder to the plutocrats (read kleptocrats) that Zimbabweans have had enough of this nonsense.
