Governor Ocampo Triggers False War Drums

Imaginative Kenyans. They mint new phrases every time the political temperature soars. Thanks to them now we have new lingo in POWER GRAB CALCULUS alongside MANIFEST NONSENSE that is devoid of PATRIOTIC flavour. Well give it to one governor Ocampo (hate him, like him) the Argentine has rattled Kenya's ruling class like never before. Meanwhile the gullible Kenyan is still pitching for the tribal warlords.

Make no mistake, Ocampo's incessant media briefs is both political and legal. He is simply conditioning the leading suspects for a SUMMON-WARRANT transition in addition to preparing the masses. No amount of threats of violence will deter Lius-Moreno. Having successfully prosecuted Argentinian military junta, the threats and bravado flying from our public rallies only succeed in providing him with more ammunition against the suspects.

Both Ocampo6 and their supporters have exhausted all our traditional trademark excuses lakini wapi? The sovereignty card won't wash neither the naked lies dressed as motion with no trace of movement. We cannot export our NATIONAL culture of deceit. We only fool ourselves by claiming to task police with investigating themselves and reporting to a suspect himself.

It is true proving and convicting a suspect on crimes against humanity is no mean feat and Ocampo knows it. Judge Kaul had to dissent for legal fidelity lest he loses credibility after differing with his colleagues in round one. But reading his report is no consolation to the suspects. The diplomat in him refer to local solutions that do not exist.

Granted we created our own bed of mess and must be ready to lie on the filth. But given the gimmicks from the owners of Kenya, you need not be a neurologist to see through the beauty of coloured lies. Truth is there will be no more ELECTION/TRIBALLY-instigated violence like that witnessed in 2007/8. Every tribal warlord now has his (no lady yet) horn firmly in ICC and/or Ocampo's hands.

The cheap and empty threat of POWER GRAB CALCULUS is MANIFEST NONSENSE, period. Leta ingine.

Ocampo6 Parallels Present Day Kapenguria Six

History is prone to repeat itself with regard to Kenya stewing in her own blood come 2012 elections. Exactly 20 years ago Moi prophetically warned about the perils of multi-party politics. Fast forward to 2012 and the game remains the same except the players are donning jerseys in different colour - the foot is in the other boot. The world would be IRRESPONSIBLE to let Kenya go to the dogs. And we have been warned that indicting Ocampo6 is an open invitation to chaos.

The SHATTERED diplomacy was not an exercise in futility but a chance to remind the world that Kenya has her owners. The truth is that you only risk arresting LEADING PRESIDENTIAL candidates at the peril of the remaining 40 million Kenyans. Kibki is no political fool to risk his legacy by shooting himself in both feet.

Make no mistake, defending the Ocampo6 is a national project, MTA DO? Uhuru and Muthaura cannot be left to their own devices when their only crime was to do what they had to do given the near-Armageddon in 2007/8. As for Ruto, it is REALPOLITIK and expediency both rolled in one, period.

At the risk of distorting our national history, the gand of Ocampo6 may as well be compared to the Kapenguria six in their fight for independence. The later delivered and the former have the potential to deliver us from APOCALYPSE if Kibaki saves them from the noose of vindictive ICC.

Presidential frontrunners
Naysayers will cheaply equate the cost of shuttle diplomacy to dancing on the graves of PEV victims. Far from it, brother Kalonzo has selflessly devoted his energy and time to help Kenyans reclaim their country back. The born-again VP has put at stake his moral compass, dignity, self-respect, honour and pride on the national chopping block. What is more, no price is bigger than patriotism and sovereignty.

While saving the Ocampo6 will definitely guarantee peace for the IDPs in their camps, carting the suspects to The Hague is a sure recipe for another bloodbath. Well, the choice for a lesser evil must be natural. President Kibaki is never known to protect anybody from prosecution but since he is neck deep into saving the Ocampo6 we must accord him the benefit of doubt for he surely knows alot that we don't.

Kenya needs no babysitting given our selfless and competent leaders. Post-election violence was our own making and we are better placed to solve all its problems by ourselves. The Americans and Britons are better advised to keep off and so do the loud-mouthed so-called international community.

No amount of judicial posturing can solve the plethora of our domestic problems. Truth is our problems are political which demand political solutions. We have the political will and leadership to steer MV Kenya out of the present and future doldrums. With Gaddafi and Mubarak as our trusted allies who wants neo-colonialists?

The ICC is poised to shape 2012 polls. It is true that while Uhuru and Ruto may miss 2012 polls, the 1300 victims of PEV will definitely miss 2012 polls. Similarly while the next president is not known, what is known is who the 4th PORK will NOT BE. That is HARD BALL politics 100. Meanwhile the Rift Valley (and Central) remain the focal point and hotbed of Kenya's politics.
