Talk about TAKING the FOCUS AWAY from Israel and ITS CRIMES!
"World court to investigate Kenya violence" by Jeffrey Gettleman, New York Times | November 6, 2009
NAIROBI, Kenya - Members of the political elite in Kenya, a nation where top leaders have long escaped prosecution for corruption and other crimes, could now face an international investigation into the violence that shook the country after disputed elections last year.
So the Kenyan elite are different from any other elite how?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending government, but WHY SINGLE THEM OUT NOW?!!!
After months of stonewalling by Kenyan politicians, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court said yesterday that crimes against humanity had been committed during the postelection period, and that he would seek a formal investigation.
But when ISRAEL STONEWALLS the UN GOES LIMP!!!
The prosecutor, Luis Moreno-Ocampo, flew to Kenya yesterday and met with President Mwai Kibaki and Prime Minister Raila Odinga, whose intense rivalry set the stage for a wave of neighbor-on-neighbor attacks that killed more than 1,000 people.
Sounds like a CIVIL WAR if you ask me.
There must be a LOT of CASES WAITING, huh, U.N.?
“I explained to them that I consider the crimes committed in Kenya were crimes against humanity, therefore the gravity is there,’’ Moreno-Ocampo said at a news conference. “Therefore, I should proceed.’’
Okay, Israel kills more and the U.N is where?
For months, many Kenyans have been seeking such an inquiry, with a majority supporting Moreno-Ocampo’s involvement because they had little faith that Kenya’s leaders would prosecute their own, despite pressure from such major allies as the United States.
Or BECAUSE OF, MSM?
And WHEN is USrael going to PROSECUTE their LONG LISTS of WAR CRIMINALS?
No top politician, going back to independence in 1963, has been prosecuted for corruption in Kenya. Interesting date, seeing as JFK was wasted that same year.
Any prosecutions in that killing, AmeriKa?
Few, if any, culprits from last year’s bloodbath have been convicted of murder, even though many of the killings happened in front of police officers. Several of the prime suspects from last year’s crisis, accused by human rights groups of masterminding the violence, are high-ranking government ministers.
And the U.S. criticism is tepid because THEY ARE AN ALLY!!!

But not too much!
Gangs rampaged in the slums and across the countryside last year, first protesting a dubious election and then battling it out largely along ethnic lines. Hundreds of thousands of Kenyans were displaced, and the ethnic mistrust remains deep.
You know, as cold as it sounds, that is THEIR BUSINESS, not ours!!!!
And that is a RARELY-MENTIONED REFUGEE CRISIS here in my AmeriKan newspaper. Hey, the suffering of black people in the bush isn't that important!
Again, Kenya is an ally!
--more--"
Is it just me, or have you noticed war crimes are reserved only for tinpot African dictators who did western bidding or poor whites that won't go along with the NWO?!
The MASSIVE WAR CRIMES committed by WESTERN LEADERS remain IGNORED!
