There are the people of The Gambia.....they'll have to do it with their choices and deliberate actions.

We've to act as a mason..... Bind blocks with mortar to construct the house. To assume somehow we can craft a formula that snatches the keys from the other side and readily enter will not happen. In fact there is no house to enter - is an illusion!

Ousman Koro died under mysterious circumstance and some went on ranting that was our trigger......nothing happens

Alleged mass graves after alleged failed coups came and gone - we claimed enough was enough. Nothing!

About dozen demonstrating kids gunned down - we claimed that was our trigger but nothing.

Journalist killed/tortured/jailed - we said the same and nothing happen in the end

Private real estate confiscations publicly executed - nothing

The supposed unity rally was claimed to be the beginning of some large swell of defiance - we know how it end

The demonstrations at Gambia Mission in DC was also hailed as the beginning of the end of Yahya - how's that working?

The recent demonstrations in DC was viewed as another beginning - so far, what?

Last EID al Fitr (Koriteh) a/some community(ies) were denied to congregate for prayers because their date wasn't one recognized by Yahya - what we do?

Surely all/most of these are tools in the democratic struggle tool box but for them to give desire result they have to be appropriately use. Otherwise........work is done but no desire result produce!

Have we pushed back tyranny with any appreciable degree? No! It's not because we're not working. It's because we're not working on the right work and right order. 

The pieces of this puzzle has to be identified and put in right order to get it fix. Lets have that open conversation.

There is no event that's going to trigger what we want. Such event will likely produce a result we equally despise.
