I don't know what kind of hypocricy the author is talking about, what I
do know is he is certainly pro jews. What makes matters worst is when one
tries to compare Palestinian self determination of nationhood, then the
Jews questions comes to rear its ugly head. What happen is there is this
world callled justice but then there is another world called occupation,
humiliation, aggression and intimidation against the Palestinian people
and any word contrary to that is considered anti jew or or atnisemitic.
Now what is happening of all, is the transfomation of jews agony of the
Hitler war into Palestinian tradegy of today. Now Mr Jallow, where do you
stand? As far as am concern, the issue here is Gambian suffering. Should
we compare the Gambian situation to the Palestinian course,a course of
democratic Gambia, Transparentcy and the rule of law not the rule of law
according to Dr alhagi Yahya AJJ jammeh. Charity begins at home. Clean
the mess in the Gambia and then Talk of the Palestinian jews conflict.
The Palestinians are doing their fight while Gambians like Jammeh are
doing the killing. Heart breaking. We pledge our firm alligence to Gambia
ever true.
