If any African nation were to speak out about Mugabe that government would be accused of being pro west pro colonist by various opposition groups within that nation and any other nation that supported the condemnation and the probability is that all hell would break loose.

I think what is needed is a unified African voice against him, that could make a diffrence, I note today that members of the ANC have been critical of him in contrast to Mbekis disgracefull comments at the weekend. This is important but on its own not crucial enough to be a tipping point.
