Dear Compatriot,

I have listened to the moaning and groaning as well as the criticism for a long time. There has been little or no encouragement.
A generation is to follow and we must take responsibility for our actions or inactions when confronting issues that affect us. That next generation Will judge us as custodians of their history and by the nation we leave behind for them.
This is a battle and in battle there are winners and losers. We must chose what we are to be as individuals. Yes, there is security in numbers and there is leadership as there are organisations in the forefront but, individuals must draw their own battle lines and fight! In the struggle of Zimbabwe today, a hostile and illegitimate Government, funded by you, the taxpayer, is throwing everything at you, every resource of the state is pitted against you, to convince you to concede just as Hitler's Germany attempted to subdue the British in 1941. ZPF know that they cannot win a fight where you and the people believe in winning. Already they behave and act like losers and fear is their one and only remaining weapon.
We have to ask ourselves again, are we going to be the losers or the winners ? Are you going to make their task easier by handing them victory on a plate?

This is not about bullets and guns but about who believes in victory the most. Who is the stronger and not the weaker. There can only be that one winner and we must ensure, at any cost, that that will be us. To lose, would dishonour those that have suffered so much.
This struggle is going to be in the history books one day, not too far from now, and is certainly the most notable of the 21st century thus far.
Will our generation be able to look our children in the eye one day in the future and be able to say "we did our best"?

This battle is not about forex, inflation, the cost of living, but about a whole Nation besieged by an unlawful authority. All Zimbabweans are victims, bar the ruling elite, and it is up to us to draw the line in the sand together, for everyone's sake and fight and not give up!
To finish, one of the best antidotes for depression and despondency, is to place that wasted energy at the front line, in which ever way you can, to confront the enemy. Join now, the brigade of unpaid volunteers who believe in that victory and WILL win!
How quickly that victory comes, depends on how many compatriots, like you, who find the courage to stand shoulder to shoulder with them.
