There is need for an urgent regroupment of civic society and the
opposition to launch a serious and determined program of civil
disobedience and mass action, sup****ted by regional and international
solidarity from working peoples and progressive movements.
Some question whether it is realistic to expect a people's power-based
solution given the massive attacks that the people and activists have
suffered under the Mugabe regime? We acknowledge that it will not be
easy, both because of this and because of the disastrous strategic
blunders of the opposition leaders. But the massive boycott of
elections, the spoilt papers and the various acts of resistance by
individual opposition activists show that the willingness to fight is
there. The refusal by the regime's buddies to endorse the fake election
will help, while the m***** will grow more angry with the sharpening
economic crisis. With leader****p, this can be channelled into a serious
fightback against an increasingly isolated regime.
