Yet although the evening news Monday reported that rebel leader Laurent Kabila had been "trembling" since he heard of the President's return, Mobutu brings no army with him. The outgunned Zairian forces have been consistently beaten and humiliated, and it seems unlikely that leadership alone can halt the rebel advance. What Mobutu's arrival is generating so far is a maximum of fuss. State-run television and radio Monday proclaimed it a "great event" and urged Zairians to "show solidarity" with Mobutu by lining the streets...
