ZIMBABWEANS who rallied behind Morgan Tsvangirai and boasted the US and its allies would ‘intervene’ to install Tsvangirai as president of this great country were playing with the tail of a cobra and alarmingly ignorant of history.
No doubt they were heartbroken when former South Africa President Thabo Mbeki refused to co-operate with Britain in a planned invasion of Zimbabwe, so their traitorous prayers were not answered.
Events which have since unfolded across the globe should have removed the scales from their eyes.
Their friends who connived with foreign agents to topple their own governments have since paid with untold suffering.
Those of Egypt who revelled in the so-called Arab Spring in 2011 have since been executed or incarcerated in their thousands and the so-called champions of democracy and human rights, America and the Western world, have been mum on that situation.
Mass death sentences have been pronounced on thousands of defenseless civilians.
The thousands who were killed by the Egyptian authorities have nothing, but the cold dark coffins to comfort them, those in jail languish with no hope in sight while for their Western masters, it is business as usual.
No-one is dragging the perpetrators to the International Criminal Court.
Abdel Fattah el-Sisi and his government are at ease.
What Hosni Mubarak is accused of pales in the light of atrocities committed against the Moslem Brotherhood and the rest of Egyptians who stood for justice and truth.
Similarly, those who supported the US-Iraq invasion and the US murder of Saddam Hussein, those who supported Western-backed terrorists and Western invasion of Libya, those who aided and abetted terrorism against the lawful government of Syria are drinking the tears of their betrayal.
These countries have been battered and their people have been killed and brutalised.
In Iraq alone, it is estimated that a million have been killed since its invasion by America in 2003.
They continue to be killed and brutalised to date.
ISIS (a product of US covert sponsorship) is sitting pretty and where are the Western sponsors who destroyed law and order in these countries?
Tony Blair said he would not apologise for invading Iraq and the murder of its leader Husssein, not even in the face of ISIS and the brutalities it has unleashed on the Iraq people.
That is the kind of ‘friend’ these Western ‘allies’ are.
They use you and leave you just when you need them most.
In the Western metropolis where these regime change agendas were hatched and budgets for this evil were drawn, life is normal, but for these countries where the West left its signature of destruction, lives have been devastated and changed permanently.
The refugees who began their journey to Europe with starry eyes have since known the treachery of the Western master.
They are not welcome in Europe.
All that lavish extravagant talk about protecting Iraqis, Libyans, Syrians and all that talk about democracy and human rights supposedly championed by the Arab Spring, has dried up and cracked like desert land.
The West, as usual, was, and is, still interested in looting wealth, oil and extending their control in certain regions.
The people are never ever part of the equation; only useful as pawns in their power games.
The ‘people’ have perished in flight as they tried to cross the Mediterranean, to get to Europe and their ‘Western friends’ shed crocodile tears.
No-one is worried about the people anymore, no-one is providing ships to ferry the refugees to safety under humane conditions.
Their European friends are content to police the shores, pick up the injured and the dead bodies and that is how concerned they are about the ‘people’.
The West was so ‘concerned’ about the Libyan people who they have left in tatters, in fear of their lives, without basic infrastructure, in destitution while they of the West enjoy the oil of the Libyans.
They are looting Libyan resources together with the terrorists they sponsored to topple Muammar Gaddafi.
All over the world, Western countries sponsor regime change in countries with leaders who will not sell out and when they succeed, the citizens pay in death and untold suffering and destitution.
Wherever the US and company set their marauding feet, no-one will ever know peace.
Who can say honestly that the Libya of the West and their terrorists, is better than the Libya of Gaddafi, that the Iraq of the Western-sponsored puppet regime is better than the Iraq of Saddam Hussein, that the post-Arab Spring Egypt is better than that of Hosni Mubarak, that the Syria ravaged by Western-sponsored terrorists is better than Syria before these terrorists unleashed terror on it?
The only people who can say that are Western countries who are the vultures who benefit from the carnage they have caused.
These are the harsh, cruel facts.
Those Zimbabweans who revelled in the idea of Britain and its allies invading Zimbabwe to install puppet Tsvangirai on the pretext that President Mugabe was a ‘dictator’ brutalising his people had better apologise and seek atonement for their sin against their people.
In an invasion, in a war, not only soldiers die, civilian casualties can be higher than those of the combatants, infrastructure and property are destroyed, families are destroyed, invading powers never do it for the local people but for their imperialist greed.
After people have died, have been injured, after property has been destroyed, infrastructure demolished, the invading terror power exacts its tribute, it goes ahead and loots the bleeding nation, the fractured people.
While people are struggling to heal their wounds of the war, to bury their dead, to rebuild their lives, the invading power does not hesitate to commence looting, for that was the very reason for invading.
Meanwhile, in their own countries, mothers and children still sleep cosy in their homes, they will still be marrying and giving in marriage, celebrating special moments in life, while those who foolishly sold their souls for 30 pieces of silver languish in pain, deprivation and squalor — in hell indeed.
A salutary lesson!
