I am not questioning your concern for Gambia. I am questioning your methodology. I am assessing you based on your writings. One example would be to call western power to take military operation to remove Jammeh. That is not exactly something I would support. That is actually a betrayal to Gambian nation. Did you or did you not call this? |

Turk, while I would not want to see blood spilling on Gambian roads from violence, it is not my business if any Gambian chooses to use the brutal forceful means to dislodge a tyrannical dictator if that's what you care to know.
Gambians have all rights to recover the nation from more than 17 years brutal dictatorship. How they choose doing that is none of my concern. If Jammeh refuses to go by reason, others have better ways of showing him the way he deserves. Again, that's none of my business. They have their rights.
You sit there beating about is up to you. I have no business about how you think.
Here's a gentle reminder that this thread sought to expose the dubious conduct of a rogue president buying property in America with faked names to mask his true ID. This same man staged a coup in 1994 claiming there was too much corruption he came to fight. Now he is more corrupt than the word.
Your jumping about will not cause the slightest distraction. People are far too attentive to permit your lame tricks of derailing. |

OK turk, I give up you, are playing at semantics , I really think that you are excellent at your job.

Same as existing administration (they are your words), does not mean they are exactly equal. The opposition focus in 'human rights' and 'political rights' and I do not believe that is better priorities than the current administration's priority of 'development'. Because, first of all, I do not think Gambians are demanding/needing 'human rights' and 'political rights' as much as 'development and wealth generation'. Opposition, mainly UDP, has an hidden agenda. The demand for 'human rights' and 'democratic rights' are just the agenda on the surface.
The opposition hidden agenda as mainly UDP does not offer any solution, simply they want to change the regime because of their wanting power. The previous admin was mandinka dominated. Jammeh took the power from them. Now UDP motivation to take back the power. It is kind of revenge. One of the motivation of UDP to make 'mandinka' the majority tribe to take power. I have talked to many Gambians. Many of Mandinkas raised the issue that they are the majority in Gambia approximately 40 percent, but they do not have their power reflected in the government. They may be right. The numbers should be equally reflected, but their motivation is to take over. Power corrupt people. And the power change could present very risky situations when the new government transforming. That are bitter. I would want the current admin to change, if there is an alternative to provide better government. Not for the sake of the power transfer from one to another, just for the sake of one particular group getting the power from other.
And when power change, there could be instability in Gambia if the change is motivated based on the tribe/power relations. The competition of power vacuum is dangerous. The first thing that will happen to fire all the Jolas from the government/army and recruit their own man. Most mandinkas are today complaining about injustice. They might have a point if they were sincerely believe the injustice regardless of tribe, but I am not sure if they would be just if they had the power, and try to bring their own man.
I think only Halifa Sallah is motivated for providing solutions. But he is not understood well, his ideology/programs ideas are too advance for Gambian public.
So, I believe as since opposition is not providing better policies to make Gambia better, I go with the principle of going with the devil you know.

Turk, again you wrote:
"As I mentioned that hundreds time, your political IQ, your heart is not there to be effective. Your methodology is basically 'smear campaign', 'character assassination', 'calling for foreign military intervention. And doing this especially disgusting while you are hiding in the bush."
Total speculation!! You have no clue to begin with Turk. Unlike you who make passing judgements without a tinge of reasoning, I and many fair minded contributors here and elsewhere have reasons. You perceive me as opposition to Jammeh. Due to your professional inadequacies it is just impossible for you to appreciate rational motivation. I care nothing about Jammeh. All my comments are about his terribly bad deeds and deceptive schemes and how that impacts on total welfare of Gambians.
You are the most untruthful person to have germinated on the surface of this planet. How do you get to these unfounded conclusions so fallaciously stuck in your twisted mind? Turk, you are totally impaired beyond redemption. No doubt you gyrate about without gaining an inroad.
Not just for your mini self, but to the full bunch of anyone thinking alike with you, I do not care about Jammeh. My focus is on Gambia. You mix yourself up and want to convey that all around. Your contaminated opinion is purely yours and keeping it is no harm to me.
Sadly, your deliberate bias is nothing I have any cure for. Keep riding on.
Karamba, would it not be better if you don't reply at all. He isn't going to get it. He is of a different spiece

My duty to expose nyari. What is its promised position if UDP gets elected? I need to expose the intention of tribal base group that has wishes nothing but taking power. One calls for colonial master to intervene, other seek asylum in Senegal embassy. To me, you are Gambia's public enemy number one. |

'I' and 'think' refers as opinion. Did I say 'I' 'state'?
This is a debate. It is opinion. You don't have to agree. That is what is called debate. This is not mathematical equation. What is your problem? You just disagree. Or provide your 'counter-opinion'.
Let me help you Janko.

I am perfectly fine with above statements. I don't agree, IN MY OPINION IT IS WRONG, but I can accept it as an argument. |

Jammeh's fake medicine. Is there any scientific research or any study that Jammeh's HIV medicine works? I did not know that. If there is enlighten me.
