Kenyans Citizens Being Whisked Away To Prisons in Ethiopia
I watched a documentary last night on the CIA’s program called “extraordinary rendition”. We’ve been reading about it in the Nation lately – Kenyans (accused of being terrorist sympathizers) and who are usually of Muslim or Arab descent, being picked up in Mombasa and flown (on secret U.S. flights) into prisons in Ethiopia.
Kibaki is now saying that he will not allow the U.S. to do that anymore (He’s needs every vote he can get); I don’t know why they couldn’t be kept in Kenyan prisons (are Ethiopian prisons that much worse?). Anyway, Meles Zenawi, the president of Ethiopia has decided to turn himself into Bushe’s lapdog and it is going to come back and haunt him (aren’t Ethiopian troops now mired in a terrible civil war in Somalia?).
I don’t know why the government agreed to this, but once again, it has put Kenya’s security at risk (don’t we have a history of doing this?)
And now we hear about this rendition program, yet another reason for them to attack us (Half the documentary focuses on Kenya and it’s muslim population in Mombasa).
