It has now happened very many times, as regular readers of this site will confirm, but every time it happens I can't help being surprised. Many times when I am on the trail of a certain story, it will suddenly blow up big time shortly after we have covered it here in Kumekucha. Or as in the case of the story we carried in yesterday's edition about increased CIA activity in East Africa—at more or less the same time. The CIA story we carried yesterday is one that I have been researching for a long time but only managed to publish yesterday just as the Nation were publishing their expose. I am not one for bragging but it demonstrates that at least we are pretty close to the pulse of the nation and that is not a bad beginning.
But admittedly details contained in the expose carried in the Sunday Nation yesterday revealed a number of things that we did not unearth in our research. For instance it is now clear that the Americans are carrying out an anti-terrorism operation on an unprecedented scale in East Africa and it is mainly concentrated in Kenya. So massive is this operation that numerous innocent persons of Islamic or Arab origin, including princes have been caught in the web and have ended up going through several days and in some cases weeks of sheer terror.
Several eyewitnesses have clearly said that although it is mainly Kenyan security personnel who have arrested and interrogated them, they have been taking direct orders from Americans who are always fairly close by. If you read our detailed article of yesterday about increased CIA activity and leaked emails confirming the same, you will begin to get the entire picture of the situation here.
Amazingly it is now clear that the frontline of the war on terror has shifted from the Middle East to East Africa and is now firmly focused on Somalia and Kenya. Intelligence reports must have clearly shown the Americans that this is where Al Qaeda are now operating from.
Even a fool will tell you that Kenya cannot be bang in the middle of an operation of this magnitude and still remain untouched and unaffected. More so as we head to a general election. It also raises new questions about the current fuel shortage being felt in most parts of the country. Reading the Sunday Nation report carefully one realizes that this is the sort of operation that is massive enough to trigger a fuel shortage.
