#4 Its ironic. Mbeki could and should have brought Mugabe to heel eight years ago. It would have saved a lot of lives.

Eight years ago South Africa was supplying military advisors, aircraft engines, and weaponry to Zimbabwe.

Three or four months ago, the South African navy at-sea refueled a Chinese 'merchant' ship carrying arms bound for Zimabwe.

Mbeki isn't doing this out of humanitarian concerns. Somebody read his government the riot act.

#6 Military coup by Chinese-backed middle level officers by end of August.

A bit more awkward to read, but a bit more accurate.
