Dear Honorable Momodou Camara: As per your Rule or ethical conduct on the L, and if FAIRNESS is to prevail on the L, Mr. Alieu S. Keita MUST be BANNED from the L forum since he persistently attack Ebrima Ceesay by using Ebrima's Father or Mother's name:JOGOMAI, specifically. This goes right into Ebrima's hearth and aimed at shattering him into pieces. The only reason for this is to unsubscribe him from the L voluntarily, because any time he opens his mails, the first thing he sees is his PARENT'S NAME being used as a point of contention. This is FAMILY, and family first. Why was it that most of you were complaining about BROTHER LANDING JATTA'S painful contribution on President Jammeh's Dad? It is because it is absolutely indecent and uncalled for. Despite Jammeh's evil deeds, his Parents should be off limits and they should be protected from personal attacks; and like wise Ebrima Ceesay and Dr. Katim Touray. The rule of the game should apply to every body equally, and not just to few people. Both Ebrima Ceesay and Dr. Katim Touray are very fine and eloquent contributors and decent citizens whose love for their country cannot be determined in volumes. This is why these two people have devoted their time, energy, resources, and even put their lives and the lives of their love ones at risk, just for the love for their country. And taking into account the excellent and enormous contributions both Dr. Katim Touray and Mr. Ebrima Ceesay have been furnishing the L with, I could not recall a single complaint or breach of L forum discipline, though their writings may be often controversial. Therefore, the STUNNING QUESTION is, Why should they(EBRIMA & KATIM) be subjected to such barrages of personal attacks upon personal attacks. With human decency and fairness, such a mal-behavior should cease forthwith. So, HONORABLE CAMARA, if your vivid intention and wish is the re-inforce L rules and regulation, then YOU and YOUR FELLOW LIST MANAGERS must watch out to see whether Alieu S. Keita will again use the name "JOGOMAI". If he does again, Alieu S. Keita MUST be BANNED forthwith from the L forum. In turn, LANDING JATTA should also be seriously warned that he too must cease personal attack on President Jammeh, immediately. I totally agree with you that the L is now a forum for not only the Gambian, African and Diaspora, but also a Global forum, where even the European, Asian and American Investors all scramble to fetch hot informations about our Continent, which they use as a basis for risking their ECONOMIC CAPITAL. Therefore, we need CIVILITY and FAIRNESS on the L, and more fundamentally, a more succint and prudent interllectual discussions in terms of politics, economics, international affairs, military, scientific, cultural and legal contributions. Returning to the issue of Alieu S. Keita, my take on this is that President Jammeh's strategy is to disrupt the L's focus on him and leave us scrambling for civility and unnecessary ethical L forum rule. Because he saw that the STOVALL FIGHT slipped through his hands, and that was very embrassing and disheartening to him; and again, he is seeing another fight emerging: The Ford situation, and more important to him, his own planned visit to the US which is the pipe-line; he is planning to dismantle the L's determination to challenge his visit. But so far, Jammeh's mediocre strategy has paid off, because for two consecutive weeks, the L has lost focus, instead, we have been unnecessarily lamenting on sheer ethical standard and civility on the L, rather than rallying troops to do another devastating blow to his administration, Jammeh is using military strategy on us. In a Military operation, the chief operational strategy is to search, locate and destroy the Command Station of the enemy, for the Command Station of the enemy is where the brain of the opponent's operation is. Once that is successful, the operational mission becomes accomplished. To reframe the above scenario into the present situation prevailing on the L, President Jammeh, thus far, has been very successful in sending our his search and destroy team on to the L to tirelessly search and destroy those strong elements of the L who are the Commanders and try to destroy them, either by making them frustrated or try by all means to disorient or unsubscribe them. When any of those factors are achieved, Jammeh's mission is accomplished. In this case, since one of our PARAMOUNT MANAGERS, MOMODOU CAMARA has yielded to the call for forum civility, Jammeh's strategy has been accomplished thus far, because no further serious contributions has been undertaken. Finally, HONORABLE MOMODOU CAMARA, we should all hold you and your HONORABLE LIST MANAGERS to task on this. This is the time for you to show FAIRNESS, HONESTY, and STRONG LEADERSHIP in uniting every one under one umbrella. To that end, Honorable Camara, I wish you all the best.
