“MDC powerless to deal with ZANU PF hardliners ”

It has been a known fact for years that the ZANU PF  engine was not a small task to take on and the Prime Mister should have been aware of this. Taking this on was not going to be a walk in the park,  the 1st Minister should have been aware of the fact that there are several individuals in the top ranks who benefited immensly from the break down of Zimbabwe that this Unity Government is just a head ache to them and that they would not want to see it making any positive “STERPs”. 

The 1st Minister calls them hard-liners from the old regime. The Sevice chiefs vowed never to bow down to Tsvangirai and it seems they are sticking to their pact, these are people who are civil servants and are meant to show no loyalties to any Political Parties. Amongst other reasons for standing by their promises to the Prime Minister (directly or indirectly) is what they gained from being in power under Mugabe. The minute they play ball with Tsvangirai they are afraid to lose it all. 

So is it fair to say that the Prime Minister is Powerless? Against this crew he is. This is not going to be easy for the Prime Minister as this lot will not go down without a fight, they still have the muscle (Army, Airforce, CIO,Police, etc), the farms, the corruption and control.
