Recent problems have risen in Zimbabwe with elections falling apart and causing the populace to stir up. An article covers some highlights:
"Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe's party has asked electoral officials to delay the results of the presidential poll and to recount votes, reports say. On Saturday, the opposition accused President Mugabe of "preparing a war." Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) leader Morgan Tsvangirai warned that "militants are being rehabilitated" and troops deployed ahead of a possible second round run-off in the presidential poll, which he insists he won."I think this issue is pretty interesting since we are seeing the potential for disaster coming up. With a potential small war boiling up within the country it is most likely a wise time for international leadership to step in and voice some opinion and take some kind of action. This seems to be a reoccuring issue with countries falling into dismay over elections that usually become corrupted in some manner. Hopefully both parties can work together without involving arms. I think this election issue has the potential to have an extremely bad outcome and will be something the international community should keep a very close eye on.
