[wanabidii] ??? AMERICAN HYPOCRISY AS US NAMES PEACE ADVOCATES FOR KENYA



Folks,
 
 
Although we have to respect individuals opinions on issues, I have in many instances
I agreed with Warsama, but for this, I beg to disagree on his vague reason for attack
on President Obama.
 
 
Kenya's situation is getting from bad to worse. Any proposal that would provide a
cushion for peace is 100% supported. We have seen condition of security drifting
and falling down at an alarming rate and Kenya cannot be let to fall in the hands of
organized terrorists to destroy it. Since we all value life, we must stand up to guard
and preserve democracy for the sake of Human Rights' value and dignity. Unless
we engage to save a situation in Kenya, there is every sign that Kenya is slowly
falling apart under the Coalition Government's watch. Koffi Annan and Team after
their recent visit confirmed the same. People on the ground are getting worrisome
that the situation in the country is very bad that anything bad can happen.
 
 
This attack is therefore misplaced and is without justification and Warsama should
slow down and desist from hateful attack of President Obama; unless he is able to
justify his reasoning with facts for purposes of debate because no one is perfect.
Let us give credit where credit is due so we can earn some respect and dialogue to
improve our lifestyle under peace; and I believe Warsama does not want Kenya to
fall apart.........

PRESIDENT BARRACK Bush Obama's administration is set to name 50 Kenyans to champion peace ahead of 2013 polls in a global push against election violence. Syria, Honduras and Burma also targeted say incoming reports.
What hypocrisy !
Obama is another Bush whose secretary of state Condoleza Rice dilly-dallied to allow Israelis enough time to slaughter as many Palesatinians as they could before the UN demanded a stop.
We have seen Obama and Clinton replay this in the recent Israeli strikes against Gaza that left 130 Palestinians dead, forcing Palestinians to blow up a bus in Tel Aviv resulting in 19 Israelis wounded.
Clinton and Obama-Bush said Israel was entitled to defend itself in Gaza even if it meant 130 Palestinians had to lose their lives. And both Clinton and Obama-Bush condemned the bus explosion that wounded 19 Israelis.
No, Mr Obama-Bush.
Dont patronise Kenyans with naming some of them as peace advocates. Kenyans can take care of themselves.

Kenya: Annan Calls for Peace Ahead of 2013

12 October 2012
Former United Nations Secretary General Dr. Kofi Annan Thursday concluded his four-day trip to Kenya with a draft of recommendations on how to ensure the country goes through the 2013 general election peacefully.
The chair of Eminent African Personalities said the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission - IEBC would need ample support from all the three arms of government and the general public to execute a free and fair process.
Dr. Annan said the electoral commission can only succeed in the enormous task ahead if all government institutions and Kenyans in general commit themselves to owning the process.
He expressed concern over an upsurge of violence in parts of the country in the run to the next General Election terming it a threat to the nation recovering from the effects of 2007/2008 post election violence.
Annan cited reorganization of militia groups and incitement by a section of politicians as conflict indicators that should not be tolerated at such a critical period.
Speaking in Nairobi, Annan called on politicians to watch over their language as Kenya gears up for elections.
He also urged religious leaders and the media to play a pro-active role towards curbing instances of violence by ensuring a credible election and engaging in cohesion and reconciliation efforts.

Kofi Annan, Benjamin Mkapa Visit Kenya Ahead of 2013 Polls

By Erin 09/10/2012 14:50:00 // Politics | Kofi Annan, Benjamin Mkapa Visit Kenya Ahead of 2013 Polls
Nairobi — Former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan and ex-Tanzanian president Benjamin Mkapa were expected to arrive Kenya later on Monday for a four day visit.
The two will be in the country as members of the African Union Panel of Eminent African Personalities to offer encouragement to the Kenyan people and the country's institutions ahead of the March 4, 2013 elections.
A statement from the Kofi Annan foundation said: "The objective of the visit by Mr Annan and Mr Mkapa is to give support and encouragement to the Kenyan people and the country's institutions as Kenya prepares for an important transition in 2013."
Their programme includes meetings with government officials, independent and constitutional commissions and other major stakeholder groups including business leaders, civil society, religious leaders, media and the international community.
"The priority that the Panel of Eminent African Personalities places on the successful conduct of the forthcoming general elections mirrors the aspirations of the Kenyan people, who see the next poll as an opportunity to move beyond the dark days of 2007/8," Kofi Annan said in August this year on the second anniversary of the promulgation of the new Constitution whose review formed an integral part of the peace negotiations.
The two diplomats together Graca Machel, wife of former South African president Nelson Mandela, were instrumental in bringing the warring sides of the Orange Democratic Movement and the Party of National Unity to the negotiating table following the hotly contested December 27, 2007 election.
The March 2013 general elections will be the first following the post-election violence and will bring to an end the coalition government which President Mwai Kibaki and Prime Minister Raila Odinga entered into on February 28, 2008 ending months of bloodshed.
An estimated 1,300 people were killed in the violence, a further 3,500 injured and over 650,000 displaced. A number of those displaced still occupy camps for Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs).
A statement from the Kofi Annan foundation said: "The objective of the visit by Mr Annan and Mr Mkapa is to give support and encouragement to the Kenyan people and the country's institutions as Kenya prepares for an important transition in 2013."
Chief mediator Annan is thought to have succeeded where others before him failed. The then African Union Chairperson John Kufuor preceded him, as did Archbishop Desmond Tutu and former Mozambican President Joachim Chissano in trying to broker peace.
In August this year, Annan said on Kenya: "The effectiveness of the new Constitution in addressing the long-standing issues which were behind the post-election violence in 2007/8 face no greater litmus test than preparations for and the conduct of the next general elections."
The visit by Annan comes at a time when the country is witnessing cases of violence, especially in the Coast region in which it is suspected that politics is a key factor in the conflict.
Already, a commission of inquiry is investigating the clashes in the Tana Delta that left over 100 people dead following attacks on villages in August and September.
Annan also comes into the country against a backdrop of an incomplete Truth, Justice and Reconciliation process with the truth commission now seeking a nine-month extension.
The extension of the commission's tenure has met opposition in Parliament with questions being raised on the justification for the additional time.
