Idiotic tourism consumers, pathetic safari travelers, corrupt businessmen, consummate pedophile predators, Anti-African racists, drug dealers, illegal arms dealers, decayed noblesse, homosexual couples, hypocritical missionaries, human traffickers and all sorts of white trash have been addicted to scrapbooking in order to illustrate and commemorate their Kenyan vacations.

Evil western mass media, functioning under full freemasonic control, excessively featured this fake image of the East African pseudo-country. Thus, they managed to impose a totally false perception of the colonial fabrication ‘Kenya’ among the western societies.

At the same time, persecuted people, oppressed religious minorities, tyrannized ethnic groups and African nations, who have been forcefully incorporated into this fake state that they never felt as theirs, faced the ugly face, the brutal behaviour, and the tribal enmity of the UK-imposed Kikuyu regime, which is in turn controlled by the few Kikuyu who are selected by the evil apostate lodges of London for Freemasonic apprenticeship and Kenya’s top administrative positions.

Socially secluded, politically marginalized, economically deprived, culturally depersonalized and religiously threatened, the unjustly targeted masses of the Kenyan periphery have become shadowy figures confined in the realm of inexistence for many long decades.

It is only normal that their comeback will destroy the colonial fabrication ‘Kenya‘ that was geared to merely serve the West’s illegal interests, facilitate England’s immoral interference in East Africa, and please the fancy of the racists who control the political establishments of Washington, London and Paris.

Before the fabrication of the East African pseudo-nation in the so-called postcolonial era, not a single native African had ever imagined that a state like Kenya could possibly exist. There is nothing to logically unite the Luo, the Maasai, the Borana Oromo, and the Ogaden Somalis with one another and with the Kikuyu and the other Mt. Kenya tribes.

But the English colonial strategists needed to combine their Anti-Islamic hysteria with their Anti-African hatred, thus plunging all the indigenous peoples to a calamitous swamp of misery, underdevelopment, and lamentation. The double target involved:

1.   the avoidance of the emergence of an East African Islamic Republic spanning from Egypt to Mozambique – with the Somali Nation as the focal prodigy, and

2.   the avoidance of the emergence of a Hamitic — Kushitic — Nilo-Saharan Confederation spanning from the sources of the Nile to the Mediterranean and the Atlantic – with the Oromos, the Fur, the Nuer, the Nubians, the Tuareg, the Berbers and the Hausa as the principal players.

The colonial method of spreading pestilence, chaos and catastrophe is the same all over the world. It is based on a genuinely silly but viciously inhuman mindset geared to generate colossal profit for the benefiting part and detrimental loss for the injured part. The loss is due to two main factors:

1.   Deprivation of cultural integrity, national historicity, socio-behavioral authenticity, sociopolitical identity, and linguistic distinctiveness

2.   Amalgamation with other ethno-religious groups and nations under conditions of superimposition / subordination, depravity, discrimination, and ultimately tyranny.

In fact, the creation of fake states like Kenya, Tanzania, etc. guaranteed a momentary success for the European and American colonials. This ended up with the systematic persecution of Islam throughout Eastern Africa and the methodic elimination of any perspective which would generate a national renaissance of a Hamitic — Kushitic nation as per the typical European model.

This is the two-fold biased rule of the colonial success:

A.   Ukrainians must be separated from the Russians as an independent nation, but the Oromos must be forced to be amalgamated with the Amhara and the Tigray in Abyssinia, and the Kikuyu in Kenya.

B.   There can be a Christian Democrat Party in Germany, but there cannot be an Islamic Democrat Party in Somalia.

The tyranny and the discrimination lasted for decades but the collapse of Soviet Union, the rise of China as superpower, and consequently, America’s needs for global domination, through an effective encirclement of the Euro-Asiatic landmass, constitute the changing dynamics of the Horn of Africa politics.

America needs spacious land and sea bases in the coastal areas of Yemen and Somalia; the pretext for this is called ‘Islamic Terrorism‘. This term has been coined by the US Secret Services that planned and executed the evil plan of September 11th.

To use the September 11th as pretext, they had prepared the situation in Afghanistan over the span of many years. Pakistani army would have removed the Taliban regime at any given moment in the 90s; but this did not occur. Following September 11th, Afghanistan was summarily held responsible, then ,invaded and ever since occupied.

The creation of a chaotic situation in parts of Somalia and Yemen suggests that, following a second, nuclear September 11th, the so miraculously promoted Shabaab of Somalia will be held responsible, and consequently parts of Somalia and Yemen will be invaded — just like Afghanistan in 2001.

It is therefore critical to understand that America is not opposing but promoting Islamic Terrorism. The pattern / plan is Anglo-French but the implementation process is American. In both cases, Somalia and Yemen, it is evident that America has systematically acted in a way to locally reinforce the extremist Muslims.

Last May, in an article titled ‘The Freemasonic Lerna Hydra Against Somalia: TFG, Al Shabaab, CIA Operative Al Amriki, UN Top Envoy’ (http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/view/102306), writing about Somalia, I said the following:

“The Shabaab — Like the Somali pirates, the Shabaab represent another case of colonial involvement. In this regard, the colonial infiltration took another form. Instead of bribing some tribal authorities and local Mafia lords (which was enough to trigger the Somali piracy epiphenomenon), high tech was utilized by the US secret services. Remote mind control machinery implemented in unconscious CIA operatives, implanted chips, and a bunch of associated technologies ensure the availability of CIA operatives among those who declare open and frontal opposition to America, Europe, Christianity, Judaism, Zionism, and the Western World in its entirety.

Some thoughts — in this regard:

One can notice in this regard that, for some months after the early arrival of the (then uncontrolled by the CIA) Shebaab in Somalia’s southernmost confines, earlier this year, Kenyan army had enough time to eliminate an unnecessary and still weak enemy. In March 2009, it would be a mere promenade for the Kenyan army to invade the southernmost confines of Somalia up to Kismayu and/or Merka and hand over the territory to AMISOM and the forces related with the TFG president.

Who prevented Kenya from undertaking a brief military expedition then?

Certainly those who have planned otherwise.

In fact, the Shabaab have been radicalized after the arrival of Abu Mansoor Al Amriki. Until then, communication channels were open among Sheikh Mukhtar Robow, Sheikh Hassan Turki, and Sheikh Hassan Dahir Aweys. Of course, the formation of different groups (Hizb ul Islam) does not imply either opposition or confrontation. The deterioration in the relationship started after the arrival in Southern Somalia of the top CIA operative Abu Mansoor Al Amriki. Why?

Because if united, the three sheikhs represent a trustful alternative to the fake TFG regime, and supported by a majority of the Somalis, they would be in a position to achieve Somalia’s definite pacification, reunification and rehabilitation — which is precisely what the Freemasonic colonial establishment of London, Paris and Washington does not want.

In fact, the arrival of Abu Mansoor Al Amriki in Somalia is, in and by itself, a scandal. If he is considered as an Al Qaeda operative, why he was not arrested?

Who facilitated the comfortable and highly secured travel of a “terrorist“? Simply all those who want to use this CIA operative against Somalia.

And why publicize the faraway “conference” of a terrorist? Why on earth give space and fame to someone characterized as Islamic extremist who even does not have his own group, and who is alien to the religion he claims to defend and to the country he tries to supposedly save?

Who publicized Abu Mansoor Al Amriki’s 5th of April conference? Those who facilitate the game of Abu Mansoor Al Amriki’s remote instructors.

Who wants to drive the three Somali leaders to opposition, confrontation and reciprocal extermination? Who else but Abu Mansoor Al Amriki’s remote instructors, the forces that implement the policy of Somalia’s annihilation.”

As a matter of fact, the ominous plan for the entire Horn of Africa region, if successfully carried out, will not only spread disaster in Somalia and Yemen; it will cause a far wider destabilization, and there will be no possible containment policy. Kenya, Abyssinia (fake ‘Ethiopia’) and Tanzania will be terribly shaken.

Inter-religious clashes will therefore become frequent, critical and extreme; the idyllic situation that was the myth created by the Western mass media will disappear, and ‘Islamic terrorism’ will be held responsible for the development by the unrepentant, ignorant and malignant Western journalists and analysts.

Today’s Pakistan will then be viewed as an exotic country if compared with the degradation of the situation in Kenya, Abyssinia (fake ‘Ethiopia’) and Tanzania.

That is why today various journalists originating from the fake state of Kenya express merely their imagination and wishful thinking when writing about the fake country’s chances to face “radical Islam”.

I came to notice John Onyando’s editorial ‘Kenya: combatting radical Islam‘; I find it totally misleading and absolutely unrealistic. I republish it at the end of the present article as an example to avoid.

The idea that the US will change its Somali policy to save Kenya is ludicrous.

The author admits the existence of a “profound radicalization” and fails to understand that this is the logical and rightful result of the existence – for many long decades – of the absolutely illegal, totally unjustified, and — note this — inherently anti-Islamic state of Kenya. The forgery of Kenya is a direct act against the existence of Islam; to deny this means to contribute to the worsening of the overall situation.

The idea of Kenya (or any African country) working “closely” with the US is itself criminal, immoral and inhuman; it testifies to bribery, corruption, betrayal of all African nations. Any African who imagines possible any sort of interaction, let alone collaboration, with the colonial powers, England and France, and their current substitute and offspring, the regime of Washington, and propagates this idea, perpetrates an act of high treason, because the said powers have ceaselessly worked over the past two centuries to physically exterminate, politically enslave and culturally / religiously disfigure all Africans.

Sheikh Abdullah Al-Faisal’s imprisonment is in itself a minor and marginal issue. One can describe it as the evident peak of a huge, mostly hidden, iceberg. What was done against Islam, and above all, against East African Muslims’ rightful desire to politically, culturally and nationally control the entire coast of Eastern Africa cannot and will not be forgotten.

The thought that “repression makes Kenya no good” seems logical and rightful but it is not; it belongs to a naïve analyst who insists on avoiding to see the plain truth. Fabricated because of colonial interests against the diverse nations that have been forcefully imprisoned inside this Freemasonic Hell, formed against its Muslim population’s will, and geared to eradicate Islam, Kenya could not have a chance in the trillion not to be repressive. The moment repression ends in Kenya, that moment will be its last.

How ignorant of his own country must the author be! He boasts that “Thanks to cooperation with America, Kenya has good counterterrorism systems”! How comical! Kenyan police and army smuggle arms into the Somali South to empower the CIA-sponsored Shabaab to prevail over the authentic patriotic Somali front Hezb ul Islam. But for John Onyando this means “good counterterrorism systems”!

In true terms, Kenya’s murderous dictator Kibaki, a shameful Freemason who made an oath to irrevocably bury Africa (racism is the epitome of the Freemasonic dogmas), overtly promotes his masters’ pro-terrorist schemes.

The historical truth and the political reality of Kenya are however hidden in a simple sentence of Onyando’s text: “Changes in the Kenyan economy are recasting the role of the Coastal regions, which the International Organisation of Migration has found to be fertile grounds for extremist elements”!

The aforementioned means simply this: an extensive program of financial corruption has been elaborated to be soon implemented in the coastal regions where the local population, consisted in its majority of oppressed and marginalized Muslims, reject their forced inclusion in the Hell of Freemason Kibaki’s Kenya, and actively support locally based liberation fronts to achieve secession and independence through the ultimate collapse of the Cemetery of Nations “Kenya”.

As it is worldwide known, the fighters, who act to implement the Freemasonic agenda, are shamelessly called “liberators” by the Satanic mass media of the West; contrarily, those who act against the Freemasonic agenda, are disgracefully labeled “extremist elements”.

I can easly hypothesize that some Kenyan “extremist elements” have every reason to remember the name of John Onyando during the forthcoming fascinating period of East Africa’s map redrawing.

Kenya: combatting radical Islam
http://www.opendemocracy.net/opensecurity/john-onyando/kenya-combatting-radical-islam

By John Onyando
(A journalist working in Nairobi, Kenya)

Before Kenya can succeed in stemming the radicalisation of its Muslim minority, the US will have to change its Somali policy.

The protest in Nairobi on 15 January by a handful of Muslim youth, in which four people were killed, revealed a profound radicalisation and inter-faith resentment among Nairobi’s Muslims. Kenya must address this if it is going to avoid Nigeria-style violence in the future. It should work closely with the United States, which apart from being an important player in Somalia is involved in interconnected regional initiatives.

The protests shook the foundations of tolerance in Kenya as nothing has before. It prompted some civilians to cheer the police, which is generally reviled for its many crimes against the people. Vigilantes even joined the battle on their side. But on the other hand it led to an armed protester — believed to have smuggled a gun into the protest — shooting at a policeman. The authorities have denied reports of the officer’s death, but have confirmed the sacking of a Muslim officer who defied orders to charge into the protesters.

These riots reopen interfaith differences at a time when Kenyans — in the middle of a constitutional review — least need them. Consequently, the government has announced a comprehensive and urgent investigation. To its credit it has persuaded its Muslim allies to condemn the killings and the demonstration’s organisers, whose leader has now been arrested. That the protesters were fighting over a foreigner, Sheik Abdullah Al-Faisal, who is being held on terrorism charges, fuelled much of the public rage.

Failure to engage

One symptom of Kenya’s chronic failure in the fight against extremism is its refusal to engage with the groups that actually speak for Muslims. Days before the protest Muslim groups had voiced genuine concerns over Al-Faisal’s illegal confinement and hysterical statements by Immigration Minister Otieno Kajwang about the man being a terror suspect. The government ignored them, and unleashed the police when they protested.

Another symptom is the delusion that Kenya can have two sets of laws, one for Muslims and one for the rest. Repression does Kenya no good. By killing Muslims it plays into the hands of extremists. Instead of meting out force on innocents, Kenya would do better to deploy her many strategic strengths in the fight against extremism.

The first step should be to tackle problems in the police force, whose penchant for bribes exposes the country to terrorism risks by allowing dubious people across the borders. Thanks to cooperation with America, Kenya has good counterterrorism systems. It should be able to prevent events like Al-Faisal’s entry by enforcing strict border patrol, airline security, and immigration screening or simply by sharing intelligence with other agencies.

Authorities who have publicised Faisal’s terrorist orientation have little to say on how he entered Kenya overland from Tanzania unnoticed at the Lunga Lunga border point. They tell us that the database with the watch list on it was being replaced at the time. This excuse will not wash. If that were true, the officers would have examined the records of the few hundred travellers they had allowed in immediately once the system was reinstalled. Instead, it took the Americans to alert Kenya of Al-Faisal’s presence, by which time he was already in a mosque preaching!

Even then, Kenya did not use the information prudently. Rather than deport the man — Faisal broke no law and can’t be charged — ministers ran amok, publicising the man’s terror credentials and his extremist orientation. Their botched attempt at deportation flouted international norms. The Tanzanians rejected the cleric at Lunga Lunga border point on grounds that Kenya did not notify them in time. The Nigerians, with their own problems following the Christmas Day bombing frenzy, were in no position to take in another terrorist.

So Kenya has had to host Faisal for ten days, during which time it has been accusing Britain and the US, who are supposedly better placed to handle his case, of forsaking the country at its hour of need. In actual fact, Kenya exaggerated the risk Al-Faisal posed here, generating a furore that it has failed to manage.

None of this is to deny that Faisal is a dangerous man. Britain claims that his preaching inspired one of the 7/7 London bombers, and even Abdul Farouk Abdulmutallab. He may have contacts with Al Qaeda in Somalia, which the US says is rapidly expanding into an ambitious regional network.

Changes in the Kenyan economy are recasting the role of the Coastal regions, which the International Organisation of Migration has found to be fertile grounds for extremist elements. While Kenya attracts badly-needed foreign investment, it must take care to establish the backgrounds of foreign investors, some of whom have criminal ties. Al-Faisal himself was legally allowed to enter Kenya. Ongoing swoops on Somali neighbourhoods smack of racial profiling. It is difficult to understand why a government that routinely welcomes dubious businessmen and tourists should harass refugees fleeing a grave humanitarian crisis imposed upon them by a needless war.

Kenya should distinguish itself from the repressive policing of Ethiopia, as such tactics strengthen the hand of extremists. With each new protest against genuine grievances, and each draconian response by the police, it becomes harder to argue that Kenya is not repressing Muslims. This is the propaganda that Al Shabaab needs. Live television transmission of the protest incited a bigger albeit peaceful demo in Mombasa. Scenes of police firing tear gas into Nairobi’s main mosque are outright insensitive, but also fuels the radicalisation that helps extremists.

Changing US policy

To check Al Shabaab, Kenya needs to persuade America to calibrate its policy in a way that makes the prospect of unifying the Somalis realistic. The Somali crisis is a political problem, with Al Shabaab one of the key players. While Kenya cannot change America’s policy or interests, no country is better placed than Kenya, which is most at most risk from the radicalisation of Somali youth, to persuade the US to find a solution that meets the legitimate aspirations of all Somalis.

As a senator and presidential candidate, President Obama had fabulous ideas about Somalia which need testing in light of the negative results of Bush-era military-led policy, which was escalated last year. Al Shabaab is growing primarily because the spectre of American intervention arouses anger and damages further the pitiable reputation of the Transitional Federal Government.

The continuation of the failed military policy may be partly due to the new presidency’s limited choices and his reliance on the policies he has inherited. It might also be that, without a strategic understanding of the evolving crisis, the US is uncertain and paralysed about how to proceed. Why else would it rehabilitate Sheik Sharif, a former Islamic Courts leader it deposed in 2006?

America’s strong national interest in Somalia would be better met by investing in a realistic roadmap for peace, something President Obama must crucially be in need of, and which Kenya should take a key role in formulating. What the international community needs is a Somalia policy that takes into account the internal dynamics in the Horn of Africa as a whole.

In the meantime, no one wants Kenya to roll back on democracy, respect for human rights and the rule of law, so the US should make a real investment in reforming the Kenyan police. This is an absolute pre-requisite to returning to the rule of law. For the inability of the state to provide essential protections is the main cause of the vigilantism which reached a dangerous level on Friday. Corruption within the force and its ephemeral organizations impedes its capacity to fight organised crimes. America is the best placed country to help Kenya address this important issue.

Kenya’s current President Mwai Kibaki is sheltering a fellow looter, former President Daniel Arap Moi. In 2007 these two crooks reached a pact: an electorally desperate Mwai Kibaki promised to protect Moi if he (Moi) backed Kibaki for a second term. The deal would ensure that Moi’s political base — a group comprised of several Kalenjin sub-tribes — would support Kibaki, ….so they thought.

The rest is history — Kibaki clearly lost the election, and like his predecessors proceeded to steal it, leading to the worst eruption of tribal violence in the history of Kenya.

Most Kenyans do not have the resources with which to unearth the extent of the vast criminal enterprise that dictator Moi’s regime ran during his 24 year tenure as the second president of Kenya, from August 22, 1978 to December 30, 2002. Even though press freedom has improved significantly in Kenya, journalists still fear for their lives — if and when they “cross the path” of some well-monied crooks with ties to the political elite.

The massive theft conducted by Moi, his family and cronies spilled over to the Kibaki regime, aided and abetted by western companies(with their neo-colonialist governments looking the other way). Typically, fraud on the Kenyan taxpayer is perpetrated through non-delivery of goods and services and incredibly massive overpricing.

Philip Moi was mostly associated with motor vehicle tax fraud and other low-down economic vices, whereas Gideon would mainly wait for government-funded projects to broker deals. At the local level there is(was) no single company in which Philip held(holds) shares directly. He used(uses) proxies who range from low key Asians and houseboys who know(knew) little about the wealth in their names.

The breathtaking extent of corruption perpetrated by Daniel Toroitich arap Moi and his hoodlum-offsprings is(was) breathtaking. Like his predecessor, the first president of Kenya, the ruthless and murderous Jomo Kenyatta, Moi was determined to be the biggest thief and landowner in the Republic. The “Professor of Politics” robbed his people with reckless disregard.

A 110-page report by the international risk consultancy Kroll in 2004, “alleges” that relatives and associates of Mr Moi siphoned off more than £1bn+ of government money. That puts the Mois on a par with Africa’s other great kleptocrats, Mobutu Sese Seko of Zaire (now Democratic Republic of Congo) and Nigeria’s Sani Abacha.

The Moi Family: The Biggest Thieves in The History of Kenya

   Daniel arap Moi and Son Gideon Moi

The assets accumulated included multi-million pound properties in London, New York and South Africa, as well as a 10,000-hectare ranch in Australia and bank accounts containing hundreds of millions of pounds.

The report, commissioned by the Kenyan government, was submitted in 2004, but never acted upon. It details how:

•   Mr Moi’s sons – Philip and Gideon – were reported to be worth £384m and £550m respectively;

•   His associates colluded with Italian drug barons and printed counterfeit money;

•   His clique owned a bank in Belgium;

•   The threat of losing their wealth prompted threats of violence between Mr Moi’s family and his political aides;

•   £4m was used to buy a home in Surrey (England) and £2m to buy a flat in Knightsbridge. (England)

The Kroll investigation into the former regime was commissioned by President Mwai Kibaki shortly after he came to power on an anti-corruption platform in 2003. It was meant to be the first step towards recovering some of the money stolen during Mr. Moi’s 24-year rule, which earned Kenya the reputation as one of the most corrupt countries in the world.

But soon after the investigation was launched, Mr Kibaki’s government was caught up in its own scandal, known as Anglo Leasing, which involved awarding huge government contracts to bogus companies.

Below is the copy of the leaked report by the Kroll associates on the extent of looting in Kenya by the Moi regime. The Current leadership under president Mwai Kibaki has kept this report under lock and key, reneging on the promise given to Kenyans for zero tolerance on corruption.

Githongo’s reformist hopes were betrayed when his investigation of a contracting scandal earned him the enmity of colleagues, death threats and smear campaigns. He fled to Britain in 2005, taking along secret recordings of conversations in which powerful officials implicated themselves in the scam. Githongo, a charming idealist with an intransigence bordering on egomania, is a magnetic protagonist for Wrong’s exposé of the machinery of corruption. She dissects the deeper problem of Kenya’s patronage system, which exploits the state as a source of loot and makes allowances for the tribal parties in power. The resulting graft and discrimination–which Wrong argues fueled the communal slaughter surrounding Kenya’s 2007 election–reinforces Kenyans’ view of existence as a merciless contest, in which only ethnic preference offers hope of survival. Githongo’s saga highlights this pan-African problem and addresses possibilities for change.

By David Ochami & Philip Mwakio (The Standard, Kenya)

Kenya is fast becoming a key hub for trafficking of drugs from Afghanistan to the rest of the world.

According to reports by the United Nations, “30 to 35 metric tonnes” of Afghan heroin pass through East Africa each year.

This is two-thirds the volume going through West Africa. The largest ever drug haul in Kenya, in December 2004, was 1.1 metric tonnes with a street value of over Sh13 billion.

The proceeds from the drugs are used to finance terrorism activities in Northern Africa and some other sub-Saharan states. It is also suspected that the illicit drug trade supports the unending conflict in neighbouring Somalia.

The Taliban, among whom the world’s most notorious terrorist Osama bin Laden hides, are reported to earn $100 million (Sh8 billion) a year from protecting the drug trade. Drug barons are rumoured to sit in Afghan government positions raking in billions more. The UN puts the potential export value of Afghan narcotics at about $3.4 billion (Sh270 billion) a year. So much is grown that destroying it all is impossible: With stockpiles of 10,000 metric tonnes awaiting export, the UN this year proposed creating a “flood of drugs” in the country to destroy the value of opium.

Experts say the availability of drugs in Kenyan cities is fueling addiction and spread of HIV and Aids in towns like Mombasa and Nairobi.

The UN says that countries in East and West Africa, including Kenya, are no longer only consumers of drugs but are turning into processing hubs for hard drugs. Some states are “threatened” by the increasing clout of drug cartels.

Last evening, Judith Odhiambo who heads the Anti-Narcotics Unit of the Kenya Police acknowledged a surge in seizures of drug hauls but it was not clear whether that is a result of better law enforcement or an increase in trafficking through Kenya.

“Seizures are rising now,” she said in a brief interview. She did not, however, have definite figures of trends and added she needs to read the UN report first.

The UN says heroin is replacing cocaine whose supply has been going down. Last year 80 per cent of the world’s opium (used to make heroin) came from Afghanistan. Production is up over 239 per cent since 2003, according to US government estimates. Most states preferred by traffickers lack money to implement anti-narcotics strategies.

On November 24, a ministerial declaration supporting UN efforts against drugs and organised crime was signed in Kenya. Dated December 8, the report quotes Antonio Maria Costa, the Executive Director on the UN Office on Drug and Crime (UNODC) as saying: “Drugs are enriching not only organized crime but also terrorists and other anti-Government forces,”

He describes the situation as a worrisome development.

“In East Africa…30 to 35 tonnes of Afghan heroin [are] trafficked each year causing a dramatic increase in heroin addiction and spreading of HIV and Aids in the slums of Nairobi and Mombasa.”

The official said the rise is also connected to state failure in Somalia.

“Mainly because of the drastic situation in Somalia, he said, East Africa was becoming a free economic zone for all sorts of trafficking — drugs, migrants, guns, hazardous wastes and natural resources.”

West Africa has traditionally been associated with the international drug trade but Kenya now leads states in East Africa that have emerged as favourites for drug traffickers.

A UN Security Council meeting on global cooperation in fighting international drug trafficking was told that narcotic laboratories are increasingly finding homes in Africa.

The UN bulletin, which reported on the meeting, says that such laboratories have already been found in countries such as Guinea-Bissau. The country’s Cabinet is so compromised, it is referred to as the world’s first “narco-state.”

UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon told the meeting that international drug trade is fuelling brutal conflicts, corruption and other crimes besides undermining the rule of law.

The UN chief said in some poor nations proceeds of drug trade distort Gross Domestic Product and disclosed that global co-operation to fight the narcotics menace lags behind cooperation between or among criminal groups.

The CEO of the National Campaign Against Drug Abuse (Nacada) Jennifer Kimani says there is a rising consumption of heroin in Kenya owing to its availability and affordability on the market.

“There is a rise in demand for heroin because it is cheap and available,” she says and adds supply and abuse of the drug has risen lately beyond the traditional Coast province to Kenya’s hinterland.

The Council of Imams and Preachers of Kenya According to the Council of Imams and Preachers of Kenya (CIPK) lack of goodwill from the government was derailing efforts to contain the menace.

“A good example is the Kenyan Coast which has seen the number of youths hooked to illegal drugs on the increase. It is religious leaders and to some extent provincial administration officials who are trying to eradicate drug use here,” Sheikh Mohamed Khalifa, CIPK organising secretary said.

He added that certain individuals known to be involved in drug trade are in good books with senior Government officials who act to protect them arrest.

But Sheikh Juma Ngao, a Nacada director, points an accusing finger at western nations which have reneged on their role to help stop supply of drugs to developing countries.

“There is need to have stiffer international laws in place that could deter transfer and or transportation of drugs to countries like Kenya in the first place,” Sheikh Ngao said.

However, Corsi himself acknowledges that there is no evidence that “the group played any formal role in the official Obama transition” — indeed, the Task Force was initiated in April 2008. Moreover, while Hasan was listed as one of approximately 300 “Task Force Event Participants” in the report’s appendix, HSPI has reportedly said he was not a “member” of the Task Force, and was listed because he RSVP’d for several of the group’s open events.

Corsi is the author of “The Obama Nation,” the book with which he tried to derail Obama’s election — and which he tried peddling in Kenya — and was promptly deported by the Kenyan authorities.

Jerome Corsi is a vile, bigoted smear-peddler. In 2004, Corsi helped launch the Swift Boat smear campaign with a book of distortions and lies he wrote about John Kerry, who did not fight back effectively. When he tried the same on President Obama, he was rebuffed vigorously. Corsi and his right-wing backers were counting on Obama not fighting back. Obviously his tactic of spreading lies and desperate fabrications about Obama in order to elect John McCain and continue George Bush’s failed policies, failed miserably.

Now, again, this rodent is sticking out his snout — smelling the sweet HOT SHIT steaming at Sean Hannity’s “Fixed News” studios.

Corsi: “Obama is post-American,” “he puts down American exceptionalism“

Corsi is “optimistic” his conspiracy theories won’t come to pass because tea partiers oppose them

Hannity lets Corsi explain why his black helicopter G-20/IMF/”global new deal” claims aren’t a “conspiracy“
