Folks,
Isn’t that interesting……..The Molasses, Luo Thrift, Specter and Dominion factor is spilling the beans in Luo Nyanza………The reason Lake Victoria and Migingo is at stake involving Museveni and Gadaffi………The Invasion to Africa using Policing Thuggery recruits paid by Public funds that which facilitates Somali Pirating, Al-Qaeda, Al-Shabaab, Mungiki and joining the African Mercenaries for Gadaffi’s terrorism guerrilla war, will not be accepted or allowed by good people of the world………
It is no longer a secret that the connection of International Special Interest of the “Birds of the Same Feathers” are after Control and Power under non-controlled facilities by the Government on their “Free Trade” of looting and plundering……..the reason they do not want Majimbo/Federal Governance to be implemented.
Food security for the poor under all circumstances is utmost necessary and paramount important. It is against ethics in the International Treaty, under UN Humanitarian grounds to inflict organized sufferings and hunger on the poor. Any type of engagement that which prejudices accessability to food under an organized conspiracy network is against ethics of United Nations International Treaty, and is a violation and Crime against humanity.
These cartels are in a Big Mission to fortify backroom deals so to generate Free Trading Block for “Birds of the Same Feathers” all over the world o control Food and Fish export to Arab and Middle East Nations, while in addition spilling African poor Blood for Diamond and Minerals and for Oil for Petro Dollar……God forbid……this people are making life in bondage unbearable and impossible to the Local ordinary voiceless Poor in their oppressive Regime Gang of quest for power in Rulership……….Corruption, Graft and Impunity is their Cup of Tea……. This MUST stop NOW………
People….!…. this is why Gadaffi’s stolen accumulated goods and properties are being protected by the two Principles in the Coalition Government………and with Gadaffi in Zimbabwe, covering under African Union………it is business as usual………We must be watchful and smarter and agree to disagree……..
Therefore, we must stand together with all good people of the world and must unite to save mankind from perishing in the hands of these selfish Special Interest, who are connected Internationally, using the corrupt Chinese and Indians with other sneaky Religious Groups under Special Interest, as operating Agents so to avoid pain and sufferings including mass massacre of innocent African poor people. It is because, this is not the will of God upon creation………BUT, With Gods Blessings the noose is getting tighter for them………
In Unity of purpose and for Mutual Partnership for Trade to benefit all fairly, in the give and take, we believe we shall overcome through sharing in Love. God in His Glory, is able to see us through to a beautiful world where there will be no more pain or suffering……It shall not be long……..We will soon see the Promised world of Peace, Love and Unity sharing in the Natural Blessings of God with our cups overflowing……..
The Truth Must Be Told…………and it is the Truth that shall set us free indeed……………..
Cheers everybody……..!!!

Moi Says He Is Ready to Dialogue With Raila
By Augustine Oduor
Standard Online
September 4, 2011
Former President Moi said he is ready for dialogue with Prime Minister RailaOdinga despite their long running political differences.
Mr Moi said, “Even if I have different views it does not matter. We should not differ at all. We can sit around the table and even eat because we are guided by love,” Moi, who seemed to be offering an olive branch to the premier, said even if people differ on principles, they should sit together and share a meal. The retired President was speaking during the wedding of Raila’s third-born son, Raila Junior Odinga, in Nairobi on Saturday. Raila said unity among Kenyans is paramount and noted that tribalism is dead.
“This animal called tribalism is dying. Tribes only exist in people’s imaginations. We can make a great Kenya if we shun divisions,” he said. The premier said he has roots among the Luhya, noting that tribalism must not be a deterrent to people’s goals. Raila Junior married Yvonne Wambui Kibukosya, the great-grand daughter to Peter Kibukosya, a patriotic Kenyan who helped write the nationalanthem.
Moi’s former aide Joshua Kulei, Attorney General Githu Muigai, Central Bank Governor Njuguna Ndungu, Deputy Prime Minister Musalia Mudavadi, several Cabinet ministers, and MPs attended the wedding.
Moi said Kenya has come a long way and grown up to what we see today and stressed the importance of love and unity for the prosperity.
“What is key is the future. We should unite even amid the difficult times that we are facing as a country,” he said.
Moi added that Kenyans are well educated and cautioned against advice from outsiders who want to help interpret the Constitution.
“The Constitution is so complicated and people should not take it simply. I would not like people from outside to tell us what to do,” he said.
Libya: Gadaffi Threat to World Security
Hassan Ole Naado
11 July 2011
opinion
In a show of defiance, Kenya’s acting minister for Foreign Affairs Prof George Saitoti has said that the government will neither sever links with the embattled Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi nor freeze the regime’s assets until advised otherwise by the African Union.
Prof Saitoti said Kenya supports the AU position that seek an amicable solution to the Libyan crisis, and will not bow to pressure from any other quarters to isolate the Libyan strongman whose regime is under siege from rebels and Western powers.
Western powers, especially the US, citing UN Security Council Resolution 1973, have asked Kenyan authorities to cut diplomatic ties with Gaddafi and freeze the regime’s assets.
Hence, when Kenyan authorities say they will not cut ties with Gaddafi or freeze his assets, it means that they are even prepared to defy the United Nations and stand in solidarity with Gaddafi. And for Kenya to take such a risk, it means that Gaddafi is such a strong ally.
Kenya is not alone in this matter. There are many other countries in Africa, Middle East and Latin America who are prepared to remain in solidarity with Gaddafi to the extent that even if the Libyan strongman is eventually toppled, they will still support him wherever he will go.
Therefore the international community should be careful when dealing with the Libyan crisis because, unlike Tunisia and Egypt where people’s uprisings easily toppled the regimes of Presidents Ben Ali and Hosni Mubarak respectively, the rebels in Libya have not yet been able to topple Gaddafi. Why?
Gadaffi’s regime has not collapsed as easily as those in Tunisia and Egypt because indeed Gadaffi has been ‘a man of the people.’ Unlike Ben Ali and Hosni Mubarak whose regimes had isolated the majority and left them in abject poverty, Gadaffi used Libya’s oil resources to empower his people economically, making most Libyans to feel part of the system.
Through his brand of Arab autocratic brand of communal socialism overlaying Islam, no Libyan was marginalised economically. The government provided free education, social amenities and youth unemployment was minimal.
And Gaddafi used the oil resources of his country to finance other poor governments across the world, making him the darling of many African, Middle East and Latin American leaders. Gaddafi built mosques for communities in several countries and office complexes for government institutions in countries like Mali, Senegal, Mauritania, etc. He also invested heavily in various countries thus boosting their economies.
Gaddafi has also genuinely assisted many African governments, especially the AU and communities. That is why even Kenyan authorities are not willing to cut ties with his regime. Even the anti-Gaddafi forces in the Libyan uprising have not accused him of presiding over economic marginalisation, plundering public resources, or creating unemployment. They have only complained about his highhandedness and lack of freedoms.
In fact, Libya under Gadaffi did not have any foreign debt and was living within its means. Despite his follies, Gadaffi should be credited with empowering his people economically unlike Ben Ali and Mubarak in Tunisia and Egypt.
Gaddafi had a very elaborate intelligence system, and his brand of socialism succeeded in building a very close-knit society loyal to him. He had a wide circle of friends outside his country that included traditional chiefs, student leaders and elders.
Was it necessary for NATO to move in with deadly force to destroy Libyan infrastructure and economy just to get rid of Gadaffi? Wasn’t there a better way to deal with Gadaffi without destroying the country? Why did the international community fail to understand that the method of uprising in Tunisia and Egypt could not apply in Libya?
I ask these questions because there is no doubt that Libyan rebels, with the assistance of NATO fire power, will eventually get rid of Gadaffi. But they will not succeed in getting rid of the regime entirely because the Libyan system of government was much more than Gadaffi- it is an entrenched system both within and without Libya especially in the African region.
So, what happens when you get rid of a leader but leave behind his entrenched influence? The answer is simple- the influence transforms itself into an insurgency.
It is likely that Gadaffi’s large following will retreat into the shadows after he is overthrown and may even transform itself into a terrorist group that will soon pose a greater danger to international security. Gaddafi himself has said he will take the war to the doorsteps of the Western powers that have attacked his regime.
The international community should take this threat very seriously because if, God forbid, Gaddafi and his forces turn into a terrorist group, he will be a huge threat to international security because he is likely to get immense support both in Libya and around the continent.

Balala accuses UN of conspiracy, vows to continue giving to Islam
By Brian Otieno
Monday, August 01, 2011
Tourism minister Najib Balala has accused the UN of using diversionary tactics to cover its failure to deal with the humanitarian crisis in Somalia and Kenya, and to fight piracy. Balala was mentioned in the UN Monitoring Group report on Somalia and Eritrea as having unwittingly funded the al-Shabaab through a donation to reconstruct the Pumwani Riyadha Mosque in Nairobi’s Majengo area. The mosque is the oldest in Nairobi.
Speaking during a free medical camp in his Mvita constituency, Balala maintained that he has no links with al-Shabaab and that his donation was made in good faith for the benefit of Islam. “My commitment is to my religion. My commitment is to Islam. I know I’m clean. I will continue donating for the good caurse of Islam,” said Balala.
He admitted having attended the fundraiser, but denied ever seeing, meeting or knowing Ahmad Iman Ali, the alleged chairman of Muslim Youth Centre. “I have never met the said Iman. I was invited to the fundraiser by Abdallah Ndope, the chairman of the Pumwani Mosque committee. “He confirmed to me that the money I donated was used in the reconstruction of the mosque, which I have personally proven and inspected,” said Balala.
He said he gave the Sh100,000 donation during the fundraiser and sent a further Sh100,000 at a later date and confirmed that the money was deposited in the mosque’s official bank account at Habib Bank, Koinange Street, Nairobi. The bitter Balala accused the UN of conspiring against Islam. He accused the West of intimidating the Arab world and especially the Middle East into cutting the funding of Islamic projects in Africa, particularly in East Africa. “They have failed to deal with piracy which benefits the West.
Now they want to further intimidate Muslims to stop them from donating money towards the construction of mosques. “It is our obligation as Muslims to help the poor and donate towards Islamic projects, especially construction of mosques,” said Balala. He said he is consulting and will be in a position to know what course of action to take after gathering all the facts. “I have instructed my legal team to look into the matter objectively and give me a report on Tuesday so we can see what next,” said the Mvita MP who received rare support from his political nemesis Kisauni MP Hassan Joho, Mombasa mayor Ahmed Mohdhar and Mvita aspirant Abdulswamad Nassir.
Kenya National Commission on Human Rights commissioner Hassan Omar also threw his weight behind Balala saying the report unfairly taints the image of Muslims donating money towards good project. “We must defend what is true. Let us not make a big issue out of a simple goodwill act of donating towards the construction of a mosque,” said Omar.
Speaking during a public forum on the constitution in Mombasa at the weekend, the human rights activist said such kinds of reports may bring differences between Kenyans, which might eventually destroy the country. Balala was particularly bitter that the UN never consulted him to verify some facts despite admitting that they have no evidence of his wrongdoing. “Why put names of individuals in reports if you have no evidence?” posed Balala
Somalia: America Bans Kenyan With Links to Al Shabaab As Balala Vows to Sue UN
30 July 2011
The US Treasury Department announced on Friday that it is imposing financial sanctions on a Kenyan described as both a key figure in Somalia’s al Shabaab insurgency and the leader of a mosque in Nairobi’s Eastleigh estate.
Hassan Mahat Omar is said by the department to have decision-making authority regarding the internal, political and operational affairs of al Shabaab, which the United States calls a terrorist organisation.
The US move on Mr Omar comes as Tourism minister Najib Balala threatened to sue the UN Monitoring Group for Somalia and Eriteria for linking him to the activities of al Shabaab.
Mr Balala told journalists at the Mvita Clinic in Mombasa that he had instructed his lawyers to start legal proceedings against the UN group.
It claims in a report that Mr Balala attended a fundraiser in support of Riyadha mosque in Nairobi’s Pumwani area in September 2009 and donated Sh200,000 which was wired to an account operated by the Islamist movement that controls much of southern Somalia.
“I am a Kenyan Cabinet minister who is always peaceful and tolerant. At no time have I caused any trouble or harmed anybody.
I am always available, but the UN Monitoring Group did not make any effort to seek me for a comment on such a serious matter,” said Mr Balala.
But international law expert Prof Kithure Kindiki cautioned that the minister’s legal proceedings against the UN may not go far since the institution and its staff are shielded from prosecution while in the course of performing their duties.
“It is zero work. He cannot sue the UN for defamation,” said Prof Kindiki.
One can only sue the UN on grounds of commercial disputes such as a breach of contract but not for criminal law issues unless they involve international crimes, Prof Kindiki said.
Mr Balala said he donated the Sh200,000 in good faith to support the rehabilitation of the mosque, adding that at no time had he supported the activities of al Shabaab.
He said that as a Muslim leader he was in the forefront in condemning the recruitment of youths to join al Shaabab and wondered why the UN linked him to the terrorist group.
The minister said his donation was banked at Habib Bank for the purpose of the rehabilitation of the mosque and dismissed the report that the cash was wired to al Shaabab.
“I am a Muslim and therefore I will continue to support development projects which benefit our community. But I will never fund terrorist activities because I am a peace-loving person,” he said.
In the report, Mr Omar as well as others are said to use the Eastleigh mosque to “raise funds, recruit and disseminate propaganda on behalf of al Shabaab,” the department said in a statement.
Mr Omar was born in Garissa and carries a Kenyan passport, according to the statement that forbids US citizens from engaging in financial transactions with Mr Omar and freezes any assets he may have under US jurisdiction.
The Treasury Department took the same action with regard to Omar Hammami, an American citizen known as Abu Mansur al-Amriki. He is said to serve as a military tactician and financial manager for al Shabaab.
Separately, the United Nations Security Council voted unanimously on Friday to re-establish the UN Monitoring Group on Eritrea and Somalia for a 12-month period.

Uganda: Al Shabaab Man Arrested on U.S. Plane to Country
Tabu Butagira & Andrew Bagala
23 July 2010
A 20-year-old man accused of providing material support to al Shabaab militant group that claimed responsibility for the July 11 bomb attacks here has been arrested in New York, US authorities announced on Wednesday. He was arrested as he tried to board a plane to Uganda on July 10, a day before the suicide bombers struck in Kampala, killing 76 people.
Information posted on the Federal Bureau of Investigations website indicates that Zachary Adam Chesser alias Abu Talhah Al-Amrikee, in an affidavit filed in court told federal agents he attempted on two occasions to travel to Somalia to join al Shabaab as a “foreign fighter”.
His communication
Originally from Fairfax County in Virginia, Chesser, in a series of interviews with federal law enforcement agencies, allegedly discussed in detail how he maintained several online profiles dedicated to extremist jihad propaganda.
These profiles, court affidavits indicate, were allegedly used by Chesser to post online pro-jihad messages and videos, including an article detailing the pre-requisites involved in living for jihad.
Investigators say Chesser, a follower of jihadist steps, tried to travel with his toddler son as a “cover” to avoid detection. It has emerged that after the Uganda errand, the man planned to connect to Somalia, the home of al Shabaab that the United States government designated in February 2008 as a terrorist group.
“This case exposes the disturbing reality that extreme radicalization can happen anywhere, including Northern Virginia,” said Eastern District of Virginia attorney Niel MacBride.
“This young man is accused of seeking to join al Shabaab, a brutal terrorist organisation with ties to al Qaeda. These allegations underscore the need for continued vigilance against homegrown terror threats.”
Chaos in Mogadishu
Last night, wire news agencies reported that the al Shabaab had besieged the Presidential Villa in Mogadishu, forcing African Union peacekeepers there to shell indiscriminately into the capital’s residential neighbourhood.
About a fortnight ago, an unnamed senior Department of State official, in a background briefing to journalists in Washington D.C., said al Shabaab was recruiting from American soil and expanding operation bases in East Africa and Arab Peninsula.
The official, without giving specifics, said: “I think there have been a number of instances over the past year where individuals have left the United States and travelled to Somalia.”
Ugandan authorities last night welcomed the arrest of Chesser as a significant breakthrough in combating global terrorism. “I am glad about the arrest,” the Inspector General of Police, Maj. Gen. Kale Kayihura, said shortly after returning from Nairobi. “That shows there is no way one can fight terrorism without collaboration and coordination with sister security agencies of other countries since terrorists are global themselves.”
Al-Shabaab recruit from Kenya killed in Somalia
May 7, 2011 | Filed under: Africa,East Africa,Featured,Horn of Africa,News,Somalia,World News | Posted by: Nasongo Willy
Nairobi (Alshahid)—An alshabaab fighter recruited from Kenya has been killed in Gedo region of south central Somalia.
The body of the Kenyan fighter was found near Garbahaarey town.
According to the sources, the partially decomposed body of the foreign Al-Shabaab fighter from Kenya was discovered by pastoralists who called in local residents and had to bury the body according to Islamic teachings.
Before the burial, local residents led by traditional elders, searched the deceased’s pockets to extract any documents or things that might help them identify the place where this foreign terrorist came from.
“We searched his pockets and found Kenyan ID with pieces of papers written in Swahili and English” Said local resident who requested not to be identified.
It’s worth mentioning that, Kenya has been for years a key crossing point for international terrorists into Somalia with the direct facilitation and complicity of the Kenyan Government.
On 22nd April 2009, a key notorious Somali radical Islamist who is also a Russian trained Ex-colonel “Sheikh Hassan Dahir Aweys”, a frequent feature on the US terror watch-list used a Nairobi-based airline Capital Airlines to fly to Mogadishu from Eritrea under the supervision of Kenyan intelligence officers. The Somali government had written a protest note to Nairobi accusing it of aiding one of the men on the US list of wanted terrorists shortly after the incident.
Furthermore, on 2nd August 2008, Al-Qaida leader named Fazul Abdullah Mohammed, (a.k.a. Haroun Fazul), narrowly escaped capture in Kenya according to Kenyan newspapers reports. The US government claimed that Fazul had important roles in the 1998 embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania, and the 2002 hotel bombing in Mombasa.
According to Kenyan news papers, Kenyan police raided a house in Malindi, a town on Kenya’s coast. Two passports bearing Fazul’s picture but different names were found, as well as his notebook computer. A Kenyan newspaper reported that a local police officer may have tipped off Fazul about the raid minutes before it took place. A half-eaten meal was discovered in the house, and the television was still on, leading police to believe that he ran out of the house minutes before they had arrived. Fazul however is currently believed to be inside Somalia. He is in charge of the East African recruits (mostly of Kenyan origin) with Al-Shabaab Islamist militia,a group considered by many as Al-Qaida’s proxy in the horn of Africa.
The bare truth is that Kenya is become a fertile ground for recruiting foreign fighters for the Somali based alshabaab rebels and their sponsors alQaeda terrorists.
