Ndugu na dada wa Kenya,
Let me also come in in a rather differrnt style. For the Christians, the Bible says 'all things work together for the good...'(Romans 8:28). It means everything. From what happened during the terrible tribal clashes, ICC case to winning of the party in power. It is history in the making. We as human beings did not want (few of course otherwise Uhuru and Ruto would not have won) the guys in the state house, but God wanted it. In Tanzania we had similae scenario in 2005 although there were no killings. One highly respected Evangelist referred to JK as 'God's choice' for Tanzania. People's reactions were mixed. Those who liked JK supported that but those who did not thought the preacher had gone astray. Whatever the case. In 2010 again, JK won to prove that indeed he was chosen by God as our president. Ndiposa and you Kenyans should acknowledge the fact that Uhuru and Ruto were chosen by God. There is a common slogan here in Tz by a second largest opposition party: "Sauti ya wengi ni sauti ya Mungu". Basing on that Uhuru and Ruto being in office despite cases against them does not mean God was not involved in the uchaguzi!
My argument is that all we see is for good! I like Mzee Kibaki. Na wacha tuendelee. Achana na hao wajinga! Mungu bariki Kenya; Mungu ibariki EA!

KM,
I believe, and i've ALWAYS argued so on these and other forums,
that ICC LOST the plot the moment it declared, rightly or wrongly,
that there was nothing to stop Uhuru and Ruto from running for office!
The moment the duo won the elections, it was like splitting hairs
trying to separate the offices they had won from the individuals who
had won those offices!!! I've ALWAYS asked, on these and other forums,
someone, anyone, to show me where, on earth, a "Commander-in-Chief"
has been arrested without FIRST overpowering his ARMED FORCES!!!
YES, everyone, the West included, will have to be pragmatic about
this ICC stuff from now on! Otherwise, it is a calamity in the making!
Thus far, Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta and William Samoei Ruto have boxed the
ICC, and its backers, precisely where ICC and its backers abhorred to
be!!!
