Wrong about what Gassa? I really do not understand what you are saying? Are
you saying that the Senegalese  govrnment does not mean it when they say they
accept the responsibility for the boat being in operation under the
conditions it was in? What purpose would that serve., and what proof do you
have to make such accusations, and most important of all, what is your
motvation?

I think the point here is that responsibility was accepted. As I states
earlier that is more than many a culprit to more heinous crimes have done
regarding other matters, and you will of course not touch on that at all,
even though you are a most ardent advocate of a government that is very much
guilty of not accepting responsibility where the yshould.

Rather you want to malign those who accept responsibility and even go so far
as to question their sincerity and future plans regarding this issue.
The only other thing you can mean or are implying is that they will not do
anything to make sure that similar disasters  like this are averted, and I
cannot see how you can make that pronouncement really. I fail to see your
point here.

However, it is quite obvious by now that you serve as  a vehicle for many
things my brother, but I caution you lest you also become a vehicle for
stirring up discord within the Senegambian sub-region by making unfounded
implications and allegations. You are trying to paint the Senegalese
officials as monsters who facilitated this tragedy deliberately, and  who do
not mean it when they say they accept responsibility for the tragedy and who
will not do anything to avert something like this happening in the future.
That is tantamount to accusing them of conspiracy to kill these people
deliberately and that they will  not do anything to prevent such a disaster
in the future. That is a very serious allegation. What is your motivation
here?
