US December 12th Movement welcome ED - oppressed turned shameless cheerleaders of tyrants N Garikai

The December 12th Movement has said it will hold a "welcome" rally for President Emmerson Mnangagwa who is in the United States for the United Nations General Assembly.

"President Mnangagwa and Zanu PF won an overwhelming victory in the recent free and fair elections by the people of Zimbabwe who continue to be uncompromising in their commitment to Zimbabwe's sovereignty and independence," the group said in a statement Friday.

Mnangagwa rigged the 30th July 2018 elections. His regime denied 2 to 3 million Zimbabweans in the diaspora the vote with the same callous disregard of their right to a meaningful vote reminiscent of America’s deep south blatant denial of blacks their right to vote.

Tyrants like Mugabe have spoken against black oppression in America and for that the Movement’s members have supported the tyrant to the hilt ignoring the brutal oppression he was inflicting on black Zimbabweans.

Of course, the December 12th Movement is out to welcome Mnangagwa they in the hope that he too will follow Mugabe’s example and fight in their corner for that is all they care about.

"The elections were observed by national delegations from around the world. Our observations of many poll sites reflected a well-organized process. Every detail was witnessed and signed by every party," said Attorney Wareham, one of the Movement members.

"We were there for the duration. The overwhelming majority of international observers declared the elections free and fair."

The “overwhelming majority” and yet he could not name even one observer team that said that. Even the AU and SADC teams, known for endorsing dodgy election processes in Zimbabwe and other African countries had to qualify their endorsement this such phrases as “substantially”. Some of the teams from the 30 or so nations with a democratic history said the elections were rigged whilst other chose to condemn the elections with their silence.

"The December 12th Movement maintains our support for ZANU-PF and the people of Zimbabwe and demand an end to the illegal economic sanctions implemented by the United States Zimbabwe Democracy and Economic Recovery Act (ZDERA), and the recent amendment by President Trump which stiffens the undermining of the self-determination of Zimbabwe and land reform in Africa," said Wareham.

President Mnangagwa and his junta rigged the elections and, per se, the regime is illegitimate.

Wareham may not have voted for any of the recent American governments but even he cannot deny the elections were free, fair and credible and therefore the elected governments were legitimate. Surely a legitimate government is free to decide with whom the nation can do business. Wareham and his follow Movement friends may not agree with ZDERA but that does not make the sanctions illegal since they were imposed by a legitimate regime.

ZDERA making perfect sense as to is putting on the pressure on the illegitimate Zanu PF dictatorship to implement the democratic reforms and hold free and fair elections. Every thinking Zimbabwean out there know that the root cause of the country’s problems is the failure to hold free, fair and credible elections. All this talk of sanctions as the root cause of the nation’s problems is just hogwash!

Those nations, notably the British, who have decided to recognise and support this illegitimate Zanu PF regime diplomatically, financially, etc. are not doing the long suffering people of Zimbabwe an favours. The country is in this economic and political hell-on-earth because of 38 years of corrupt and tyrannical Zanu PF dictatorial rule. The people of Zimbabwe have failed to remove the regime from power all these years because it rigged elections.

Zimbabwe is stuck with this vote rigging Zanu PF dictatorship. The only peaceful way to force it out of office is to deny the regime all support after all it is illegitimate.

For 38 years Zanu PF has rigged elections and it ever got was a slap on wrist. If Zanu PF is allowed to stay in power to the next elections, in 2023, we can be certain the regime will rig those elections too. This madness must be stopped and stopped now!

The Movement member are just as stupid as those Palestinians who supported Saddam Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait just because he demanded that Israelis  should vacate occupied Arab lands. Of course, the people of Kuwait were furious with the tyrant of Iraq for invading their country and they were equally furious with those Palestinians who chose to ignore the injustice of the invasion for selfish reasons. It is little wonder that many of the selfish Palestinians, who had been welcomed in Kuwait and had lived there for many years, were booted out of the country together with Hussein!

The members of December 12^th Movement are the shameless faces of the oppressed in the world, not just America, who have willingly become the tyrants and murderers’ cheer leaders for thirty pieces of silver!
