This just in. the MDC has threatened to unleash war IF they dont win the elections...So desperate are they to get into power, they are prepared to destroy the country.
Lest we forget:
'Arthur Mutambara, the leader of one faction of Zimbabwe's main opposition party, the MDC, and one of the principals in the Save Zimbabwe Campaign that's at the centre of a storm of controversy over the Mugabe government's crackdown on opposition, boasted a year ago that he was "going to remove Robert Mugabe, I promise you, with every tool at my disposal." (1)
Educated at Oxford, the former management consultant with McKinsey & Co. was asked in early 2006 whether "his plans might include a Ukrainian-style mass mobilization of opponents of Mugabe's regime." (2)
"We're going to use every tool we can get to dislodge this regime," he replied. "We're not going to rule out or in anything the sky's the limit." (3)

Biti warns of war break out in Zimbabwe
THE opposition Movement for Democratic Change party led by Morgan Tsvangirai (MDC-T) party on Friday called for dialogue with President Robert Mugabe’s ruling Zanu PF party on a government of national unity and warned that unless this happens a war might break out in Zimbabwe after the run-off election.
The Secretary General of the MDC-T party, who used a characteristic mixture of toned down conciliatory and hard-line language, said: “It is in the best interest of the Zimbabwean people to talk. We're ready to dialogue,” MDC Secretary-General Tendai Biti told a debate on Zimbabwe at the World Economic Forum which opened in Cape Town yesterday.
He was quoted by The Times newspaper of South Africa saying, “The regime is increasing the decibels of insanity,” referring to the detention of Morgan Tsvangirai at a roadblock in the second city of Bulawayo.
