So?

Should socialists have stopped advocating self-determination for the
Kurds, simply because the USA was aiming to overthrow Saddam Hussein?

Should socialists support trafficking in women because the Bush
government has been taking some steps to address the trafficking of
women?


The question here is self-determination for the Zimbabwean masses.
Whatever the US's attitude is towards Mugabe, is irrelevant to that
vital question.
