Dampha,

It is because all of them know that they are dealing with murderers. They are
i nthe know of some very terrible things that are being done to innocent
Gambians and the yare privy to all of this information. Therefore, they know
they serve murderers, and this could also be their fate. However, the most
bizarre thing of all is that they are happiliy serving in this regime when
called upon to do so even though they must have been able to put two and two
together to know that some very bad stuff had already happened by the hands
of Jammeh and his partners in crime from the begining.
Justice has a very strange way of being served sometimes, and the old saying
that "he who lives by the sword shall fie by the sword" is still very much
true. These people dug their own graves by cavoting with these criminals, and
if the material things they get out of it is worth it to them, then I have no
sympathy for any of them. Jammeh and Jobe must have something to hold over
their heads, and it is called "fear of you meeting the same fate you already
know we have inflicted on others"

I also want to commend the decent members of the editorial staff of the
Observer who resigned rather than contribute the illegalities of a police
state. How in heavens name can any newspaper ban the coverage of a politician
whose opinions need to be heard by the general public, and still be able to
rationalize it? Wjat we now have in The Gambia are not attempts at
rationalization of these horrible actions, but just a flaunting of the fact
that these thugs can do anything criminal and unlawful and get away with it.
They are not even trying to cover up anything now really.
