Demba Thanks again! What will be your personal act in a revolt in Gambia? I hope you are ready to go and lead/direct the frontline than hoping some other Gambian will do that. That was the point am making. I don't know what will happen even the next minute but am not sitting on empty hope. Equally am not counting on any Fambian doing what I couldn't ordinarily do. It appears I have picked the easier side and hoping others will pick up the harder/deadly side of the struggle. I understand clearly these are uncomfortable truth but must be said if a practical solution has to be achieve. That's doesn't mean I do not recognize the efforts and wants of others. However there is little concrete action beyond the fogs of rhetoric that will earn us the desired goals. I have recently seen some counting on the death of Yahya from a supposed illness. They're more optimistic than me to say the least. I appreciate your overly optimism. Maybe you know something that I don't. Slicing and dicing each word or sentences of mind wouldn't help the cause. Focus on the subject of my argument.
