Everyone knows who bankrolled the Kenyan post election violence, World Bank. Just like they bankrolled the Somalia invasion by the corrupted Ethiopian regime, they did play a significant role in the Kenyans election and aftermath. Kenyans were not happy the government was getting involved in Somalia, but the regime was weak and saw an opportunity to get involved just like the Ethiopian dictator, after having been ousted through election he regime started to crack down on the opposition, World Bank steps in and saves the regime by offering it to invade Somalia in exchange to remain in power with the backing of the largest corrupting financial institution in the world, World Bank. When Moi Kibaki saw there is such possibilities to save his imminent ousting, because the polls in Kenya were clear that he was about to lose the election. Then he took the offer made available to it; World Bank may have said, just like what they said to the Ethiopian dictator, do what we tell you to do and we will recognize you as the legitimate winner of the election and help you solidify power. That was the indirect message communicated to Moi Kibaki, and he unleashed his trusted ministers to organize and sanction the violence. That is what happened. As promised, World Bank was the first organization to recognize his winning of the election. We know for fact this happened, there may be some details left out here, but we know for this to be true.

Perhaps it is silly but i think it is not a great step. my fear is nothing will really materialise, and what would would not escape partiality.otoh. when it is the idea to purport some bases for the inclusive government, is it not possible to aproach that with a merely diplomatical effort, (and perhaps standard, wich would finally take away some of that partiality). even then i don't see an obious role for the white messengers. A thing like this is hardly credible at all if it is not an african iniative.

For the Kenyan post-poll violence problem, ICC is the way to go. If the solution is left to these politicians, nothing will happen. These criminal politicians would get together and say, "Honorable Bwana, after all we are fellow-Bwanas. Therefore let us not allow the ICC- way." The poor people will continue to suffer. Elections will come one after another, and murder and mayhem will continue as usual. If at all Kenya has a chance, this is it. If not now, then say, never!

It is important to note that as far as the issue of prosecution of the post-election offenders is concerned, the government of Kenya will never lead the process. When forming the truth and reconciliation commission, the president noted that it was prudent to tamper justice with forgiveness. However, from his actions, he must have meant we forget the past and move on, with a naive hope that the violence shall not recur. The two key leaders - the president and the PM, have been held hostage by the masterminds of the violence. They are in their offices courtesy of these angels of death. Raila needs their support come 2012, and Kibaki needs them in order to leave a befitting legacy. They need prodding and pushing from all powers and more so from Kenyans whom they claim to serve.

Justice deserves to be dished out, for over half a century now Kenyans have been trying to peacefully co-exist and prosper, the clique of politicians that keeps on inciting the violence during every election should be dealt with. Too many have already died and thousands more have been affected. I'm with Ocampo - take these mass murderers to the Hague. We have paid a heavy price for peace after the elections of 2007. We now have a government that employs 42 ministers which the taxpayer pays for. Moreover, they are still not happy with the millions of shillings that they earn from the treasury for doing nothing. Most of them are also blatantly corrupt.
