Zimbabwe's historic handshake raised hopes of a solution to the political crisis. Unfortunately this will be just more of Mugabe's Machiavellian manoeuvres to, 'keep your friends close and your enemies closer.' As I pointed out last week that Mugabe was in fact an extraterretrial, and that he is so ancient, that it wouldn't surprise me if Machiavelli met Mugabe and wrote his famous del Principe based on his encounter. Mugabe's scheming knows no bounds and Morgan Tsvangirai will face even more obstacles to his planned reforms. Mugabe can always turn a face saving gesture into a cruel and sudden victory. Beware 'the Prince.'
