From July 22nd, 1994 the peaceful and blessed Gambian Nation has changed into a police state, a killing ground, and a state where many crimes against humanity are committed. It has also changed into a state where Gambians are being robbed of their identity,which is given away to people from other countries. A system of divide and rule is another change affecting Gambians. Under a one man show, the country has also changed into an illegal arms trade zone.Time and time,i finally came to the conclusion that a West African Saddam Hussein exists in the Gambia.This is a threat to not only the Gambia and the sub-region, but to the New World order. The Gambia has changed to a police state due to Government agents interfering with the privacy of citizens.National intelligent agents constantly tap private telephone lines,the press and prominent citizens constantly receive death threats. Arrestations, detentions , interrogations and the torture of ordinary citizens and public figures has become the order of the day. This was the same situation that existed in Iraq during the Saddam era.. Since july 22nd 1994, the Gambia has also seen many crimes against humanity committed, which is triable under International law. They range as follows: - Summary executions of commissioned army officers,non-commissioned officers and ordinary rank and files.Mass graves can be found in Bakau and Yundum. - The shooting deaths of school children by Gambia security forces under directions of the so call Gambian President. - The mysterious death of Honorable Ousman Koro ceesay. This was a crime committed by the Jammeh Government. - Dissappeareances of prominent Gambian politicians and ordinary citizens. - Dissappeareances of members of the Gambian armed forces. This are crimes that are punishable under international law and they are cases that we as Gambians,will pursue against Jammeh and his junta. The same situations existed in iraq that is why time and time again,i have come to the conclusion that another Saddam Hussein exists in West Africa. Again from July 22nd 1994, we as Gambians started getting stripped of our identity. Personally i have seen not only cassamance sitizens from senegal with Gambian identity, but other foreign Nationals. I began asking myself why Jammeh was doing that.Finally,i came to a satisfactory conclusion that it was not only geared towards consolidating his position to continue ruling the country, but also to enrich himself by involving in a Gambian passport trade.It is imminent that these people from cassamance will not only vote for him in National elections, but will also provide security for him. This is a critical position that he has taken as an influx of cassamance rebels and other residents could escalate into a regional crisis. Onething Jammeh should know forsure,is that he will never succeed in the formation of a GAMSCA which is his ultimate goal.Saddam Hussein did a similar thing in Iraq, by sorrounding himself with foreign fighters who he accorded citizenship.My personal intelligence revealed that the majority of state Guards in both Banjul and Kanilai are not citizens of the Gambia,but foreign fighters. A system of divide and rule has also been seen in the Gambia from July 22nd, 1994.I am not a tribalist, and no one should encourage tribalism. I strongly believe that people of the earth regardless of race, gender religion, color and social background are of the same family. We should live to love one another. On the contrary, we have seen Jammeh diverting resources of the country to his home town and region. Fellow Gambians, you can all witness that Kanilai has a twenty- four hour power supply whiles the country's capital Banjul and other major towns,are most of the time without power supply.Are people in Kanilai better than the rest of the country? Are they the only tax payers in the country if they even pay any? If Jammeh claims himself to be a true patriot, he should facilitate the availability of power to not only Kanilai, but the whole country.Why is a bag of rice cheaper in kanilai than the rest of the country? Why can't everything be the same? These are some of the questions Gambians are trying to find an answer to. This system of Jammehs administration,paradoxically appears to be very crucial,as it is important in addressing social injustice, manifests the lack of solidarity, oneness, love, and Jammeh Governments effort to divide Gambians.There is a paradox posed by memory and history when past memories hurt so much they feel as though they must be forgotten, but never.However, all the social injustice and Jammeh's continuing effort to divide Gambians spring from some idea of order, a principle that Gambians are twisting and breaking but cannot still understand why such an order. Such was the situation in Iraq when the Sunni tribe enjoyed most of the fruits of the Iraqi people. This makes me wonder about the emergence of another Saddam Hussein in the Gambia. Onething Jammeh and his APRC should know is that, we as Gambians will never get fooled and we are patiently waiting for the day we will bring that ARCH DOWN AND PULL HIM FROM A HOLE.We are patiently waiting for the day when we will use the Infrastructure at Kanilai as an AGRICULTURAL TRAINING CENTER OR A COLLEGE CAMPUS for HIGHER EDUCATION. Fellow Gambians it is also important to know that our country has turned into an illegal arms trade zone. Since July 22nd 1994, the Jammeh administration has embarked on purchasing weaponry from not only libya,but many other coountries. Why do we need such weaponry when our schools and health care systems are apalling and degrading? Why do we need such a weaponry when we cannot even provide good paychecks for our teachers,doctors and other civil servants.Why do we need such weaponry when our roads and other communication facilities are ridiculous. We dont even have such a modernized army. I satisfactorily came to the answer,that Jammeh is either arming his tribesmen in Cassamance, or selling the arms to other countries or both. This should be a concern to all leaders in the sub- region as it poses a real threat to regional stability. One thing Jammeh should know is the fact that beyond doubt, there are combinations of very simple natural that have the power of affecting us, still the analysis of this power lies beyond the depth of our consideration. He should know that only God is Mighty. These are all realities springing from the conception of an entertaining hoax in the Gambia. The mysterious tales, the social injustices, lack of solidarity and the divisions among Gambians all spring from this hoax.However, the whole Gambian cosmology rest upon the philosophical principle that the very apprenhension of disorder assumes an agency of order. As we can see there is already a disorder in the Gambia and an agency of order will sooner or later take up responsibility.This agency of order is we the Gambian people.I am therefore totally convinced about the existence of a West African Saddam Hussein in the Gambia. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/CGI/wa.exe?S1=gambia-l To contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to: [log in to unmask] To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
