Dear Sir, This new man will certainly be faced with many issues that might not be new to him.He seems to be a person who enjoy been in deep trouble Lands,though not certain at what times he has been in these places but also looking at the dirty CIA involvements in most of these crisis Lands he was once stationed and having at the back of my mind that most of these crisis have been going on since the start of the cold war,I am just wondering what role he was playing by then.But at least,this time around ,I hope and pray that he has the eyes of looking at the Gambian crisis as an uncompromising struggle between the Good and the Evil.Welcome to the Gambia,Your Excellency For Freedom Saiks ----- Original Message ----- From: Yankuba Njie <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Monday, June 18, 2001 3:26 PM Subject: Bush Picks Ambassador to Gambia > Culled from the AP > > Thursday June 14 5:26 PM ET > Bush Picks Ambassador to Gambia > > WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush (news - web sites) has picked veteran > diplomat Jackson McDonald as ambassador to Gambia. > > McDonald, whose selection was announced Thursday, currently is deputy chief > of mission in Abidjan, Ivory Coast.
