Real terrorists are people who unalwfully break into civilised order to bring havoc over their helpless victims. They normally employ weapons of destruction. They are out of control and strike when not expected. They are wild and very harmful. They cause serious terror around those terrific victims. Gun man Jammeh is doing exactly that. Wait a minute. Those who support Jammeh are aiding terror by wider implication. Gambia is in trouble resulting from terror inflicted on the population.
Much, Jammeh has terrorist friends all around the world. He deals in weapons, drugs, and dirty money laundered through international illicit finance networks. That is what good Gambians hate and not the person and his thick skin.
Deny this Sister Omega and be exposed worse still.

Nelson Mandela was classed as a Terrorist
Steve Biko was classed as a Terriorist
Patrice Lumumba was classed as a Terrorist
Ghandi was classed a Terriorist
Harriet Tubman was Classed as a Terrorist
Sam Sharpe was classed as a Terrorist
Even Jesus Christ himself was classed as a Terrorist.
The question is today do we preceive them as Terrorists
Even though they were classed as Terrorists?
Now to address your point Gambia produces no weapons so what powers supply Gambia and the rest of Africa with weapons?
Drugs are a problem all over the world and all countries are having problems with them not only Gambia.
Now tell me what Army in the world has no arms?
Also you forget to mention the fantastic job the Gambian military are doing in Darfur having been commended by the AU and UN recently.
All governments have a secret service and none of them are squeaky clean that is the nature of the work they do.
Let me ask you how many Terrorist personally treat the sick and find complementary medicine to subsidise their health service. How many terroist groups empower women and give them senior roles in their cabinet? I put it to you Karamba in regards to your statements on Gambia. That they are misty to say the least because you haven't been there for so long. All your references are second third and fourth hand. I keep on saying it to you and I know you don't listen! Go home and see for yourself and evaluate the primary data.
Then even if your visit comfirms your convictions at least your writing will be more refreshed with the new insights you gain. My advice to Karamba is feel the fear of going to Gambia and do it anyway. In my view you will be a better person for it. |

The relationship between Gambia and Iran was not that tight to begin with. The Iranians haven't even got an Embassy in Banjul. The Iranian smuggler was put on trial in Nigeria. For all we know the consignment could of been destined for anyone not necessarily the Gambian government. Taking into consideration attempted coup plots. Or most likely the instability in the Sahel and sahara region itself along the Sub-Saharan trade routes. Where many recounts of illegal immigrants going the back way through the Sahara and ending up in Libyan prisons have witness rocket launcher attacks in the dessert.
People smugglers aren't just Arabs many Africans from the Subregion and further a field are implicated in it. Recruited from the detention centres in Libya they were often released on the condition that they got more people from the Sub region to risk it through the dessert in an attempt to get to the west. Also the Sahara is littered with the remains of African migrants who decided to take a gamble of going to the west rather than drowning at see as an easier bet.So really all this conspiracy blame Jammeh for everything is a distraction to the Geopolitical landscape of what's going on in the Sudaneo- Sahel. It's more complex right now.
Especially as we also have the drought in the region and the Civil war that just began in Mali, insecurity of Niger, the distablisation of Libya. Your analysis on the polical landscape and the need for security within the region is a bit too myopic in the grand scheme of things. Don't you think?
As far as the Death Penalty goes many countries still have the Death Penalty and use it including the US and China. It really depends whether or not the nation is for or against it. This can only be assertained through a Referendum. |

"Who/what is terrorist?" is also as difficult to define as "Who/what is a criminal (especially "war crimes and a war criminal")?" or "Who/what is tyrant?"; in 21st century world politics international standards 
WHERE THE BUCK STOPS WITH THESE USEFUL DEFINITIONS OF "TERRORISM"
- "1. the use of violence and threats to intimidate or coerce, especially for political purposes.
- 2.the state of fear and submission produced by terrorism or terrorization.
- 3. a terroristic method of governing or of resisting a government."

Sister Omega! Interesting but am seeing two faces or different characters mirrored in Bantaba forum? Illustrious, hard working, charming, compassionate humanist and a devils advocate (for a tyrant and "dictator of development") LOL |

Not simple double standard Kobo, this one is multiple character manifest.
What makes the case of Sister Omega so amazing is that she is adequately informed but chooses to bury her head in Gambia's hot beach sand. Knowing the truth and sleeping off it, so to put. |

Sister Omega! going by definitions above; wisdom dictates that you need to smoothen your rhetoric and posture; in defence of "free and fair elections" in Gambia, Jammeh's 18 year rule and his APRC government |

| Kobo, this is enough for mouth full. Be warned that Sister Omega will not bite or chew any bit of it. She rather spit it out because of bitter taste. So is the greater wonder about persons of biases. |

Kobo you need to do soe research on my posts over the years. Therefore anyone who remembers my postings on www.jammeh,org will remember how I have always opposed the boycott of the names, and the Media Commission Bill. I think everyone in Gambia should take responsibilty of the type of government they have. It is so easy to blame and do nothing. Than to act and do something. Hopefully in the future lessons will be learnt by oppositon parties in the future is whethe or not they agree with election results. They Boycott the Legislature at their peril. By doing this it is they who created a one party state by default. It will take along tme to readdress this balance. However there is evidence from the elections that there will be other colours in the National Assembly other than green that is healthy don't you think? Therefore blaming the incumbent for everything is an immature stance because it is as much the responsibilty of Darboe that Gambia is the way it is today. He helped to make the APRC as strong as he did when he took the decision he made in 2001 to subsitute the legislature for the newspapers and internet.
In the futile attempt of trying to get the West to overthrow Jammeh which failed.
So I think it's time for some mature politics whereby divergent views are heard and ultimately it is Gambians at home who will create the type of country they want and right they have it. Gambia's opposition is spilt which is plain to see. |
