AU's dilemna and the Libyan crisis

Nonda said:

Mkuu.
Viongozi wetu wengi wa Afrika ni 10% type.
Pili wengi wanabaki madarakani kwa wizi wa kura.
Tatu, wanapopata hiyo 10% wanaificha katika mabenki ya mataifa ya West na kwa hiyo siri zao zinajuulika vyema na serikali za nchi hizo. Ndio sababu huwa rahisi kurubuniwa.
Nne, Bajeti za nchi nyingi ingawa zina utajiri wa rasilimali za asili lakini zinategemea ufadhili na misaada ya West na US.
Last but not least, wameingiwa na woga, wasiwasi na kiwewe. Hawajijui wala hawajitambui wanaogopa hii njia mpya ya Maandamano ya kudai haki katika nchi, pia hawajui nani atakuwa target baada ya Gaddaffi.

sisi wengine tunafurahia ,tunacheka kwa kuletewa demokrasi na west na US. Wengine tunaposema hawa West na US hawana kawaida ya kutetea maslahi ya wananchi wa nchi wanazozilenga ni mbinu tu ya kupandikiza "watumishi wao". Ukisema hivi unaambiwa unamsapoti Gaddaffi.

kwa vile wengi wa wanachi tuko usingizini basi kwa nguvu za kijeshi walizonazo hawa waharibifu wa dunia, wanarudi tena kwa aina mpya kujigawia Afrika na mataifa ya dunia ya tatu vile wapendavyo....tukae mkao wa kuliwa.

AU haina 'credibility' mbele ya jumuiya ya kimataifa. Hii si OAU ya kina Nasar, Nkrumah, Nyerere, Kaunda, Sellaise, Tolbert n.k.
Waziri Membe aliulizwa AU wanafanya nini kuhusu Libya (BBC swahili) wiki nne baada ya mapambano, jibu lake ni kuwa wanaunda tume kwenda kuchunguza mgogoro! Sasa siku tano zilizopita nchi za magharibi zikaamua kupiga, eti ndio ujumbe wa AU ulikuwa unakwenda Libya. Walikaa kimya kwasababu bwana mkubwa na mfadhili alikuwa anaelekea Benghaz.

Lakini pia tujiulize, somalia walisema ni tatizo la Afrika na linahitaji Africa solution, nini kinaendelea kule kama si mauji ya Al shabaab na AU.
Wametaka Ivory coast, nini kinaendelea kama si ubabaishaji. Kama humuwezi Bagbo utamwezaje Ghadaffi japo kumkemea.
Kwa ufupi AU ni felia kubwa sana, na haina maana katika medani za kimataifa.

Tatizo langu na Ghadaffi ni pale alipoifanya nchi kama familia yake, ubabe dhidi ya raia wake.
Malikia Elizabeth amekaa miaka zaidi 40 kama 'ceremonial figure' na serikali zimebadilika zaidi ya mara 10. Demokrasi ya UK haifanani na Ghadaffi hata moja ya kumi.

Tukumbuke watu wanaopigana ni Walibya na wanakufa na wapo tayari kufa kumuondoa Ghadaffi. Ni waislam na wanataka kumuondoa mwislam Ghadaffi. Hii dhana ya hujuma zidi ya uislam inatoka wapi. Mtu akisema Oil interest tunaweza kumsikiliza la udini ni kutojua.

Ghadaffi amesaidia sana AU, vikundi vya ukombozi kama ANC na vya waasi kama Afrika magharibi, misikiti n.k. Ametumia hela ya mafuta kujenga umaarufu. Haya yote hayahalalishi udhalimu wa kuwapiga mabomu kwa ndege raia wake wala kufuta maovu ya kuwaficha wapinzani wake daima milele kusikojulikana. Tukianza kumkubali kwa hisani zake, sioni kwanini Sadaka za majambazi walioua kwa uporaji zikataliwe misikitini au makanisani.

Haya basi next Friday wabongo waandamane tena kuilaani Qatar pia. Sio kuandamana kuipinga US pekee.
Halafu mbali ya kuandamana ingetangazwa na maimamu woote hapo Dar wawaambie wabongo wote wenye ndugu jamaa na marafiki wanaoishi USA, UK, Denmark, Dubai (UAE), Canada na nchi zoote zilizohusika kwenye uvamizi wa Libya warudi nyumbani. Waislamu wote wabongo wanaoishi nchi hizi waondoke asap.Msusie hela zote mnazotumiwa via Moneygram na Western Union toka kwa jamaa zenu wanaoishi ktk nchi hizo. La sivyo ndio yale yale baniani mbaya......tuache unafiki na kufuata mkumbo

NAIROBI, Kenya – The list of countries where Moammar Gadhafi might spend a comfortable life in exile is a lot shorter today than it would have been in years past because of global monetary sanctions and possible trial at the International Criminal Court.

Uganda's deposed dictator, Idi Amin, found refuge first in Libya and eventually in Saudi Arabia in 1980, living in his own villa with female companionship, food and drink.

That kind of good life may not be likely for Gadhafi. In a twist of fate, Uganda said Wednesday it would accept Libya's leader, the first country to publicly volunteer to give him a home.

Once the west used to call us Apes! this is proving right now! our moral values has been rocked and deceived by money! In Africa once John or Mohammed is wealthy he could even sleep with our under aged children, mothers and sisters and the society will smile in acceptance of such lunatic behavior! Eh Lord give us the strength to carry on, give us Africans brains and leave chickens as they are!

Museveni says no asylum for Gaddafi


By TABU BUTAGIRA in Kampala

Posted Thursday, March 31 2011 at 10:50

President Yoweri Museveni Wednesday night described as utter rubbish reports that Uganda had secretly offered asylum to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.

The local Daily Monitor contacted the President through his Principal Private Secretary, Ms Grace Akello, after international media outlets, among them Al Jazeera TV channel, ran news of the alleged refuge.

That is a totally unfounded rumour, it is utter rubbish, Ms Akello said, quoting President Museveni.
Presidential Press Secretary Tamale Mirundi, cited as the source of the disputed story, separately refuted the report, saying he advised a reporter who contacted him by telephone to approach Foreign Affairs minister Sam Kutesa.

That story is Western propaganda and a hoax. I cannot speak on Ugandas foreign policy matters and that is why I referred the journalist to the responsible ministry, he said.

To say that Mr Museveni, who has openly opposed military attacks on Libya has now accepted to host Gaddafi, if the latter chose to flee, would mean the President considers his Libyan counterpart a defeated man, said Mr Tamale.

Personal errors

Some of these Western media outlets have their own motives. How can you offer to bury someone on your plot when that person is not yet dead?

State House expressed these sentiments as it emerged that resurgent pro-Gaddafi forces had re-captured from rebels the strategic Ras Lanuf, one of key towns to the east of the country, just days after the government forces hastily retreated when allied forces bombed them.

About a fortnight ago, President Museveni wrote an article that was widely circulated, saying the decision by France, the UK and the US to launch airstrikes on Col. Gaddafis forces lacked impeachable logic and was reminiscent of double standards.

Source:

West na US wanajaribu kila mbinu kumuondoa Gaddaffi.

Baada ya kuona nchi nyingi ikiwemo Russia na China wakionya kuwa NATO na US wanatumia UN resolution vibaya, kinyume cha lengo la kulinda raia, sasa wanajaribu kuwashawishi watu na viongozi walio karibu na Gaddaffi wa-defect.

Pia wanajaribu kumshawishi Gaddaffi aondoke Libya na wamo katika kutafuta nchi ya kumchukua Gaddaffi.

Lakini ni mtego tu kama ule wa Charles Taylor.
Nigeria walimchukua Taylor halafu wakampeleka The Hague!

Kuna mtu anayekumbuka pia fate ya Tariq Azizi wa Iraq? Alijisalimisha kwa majeshi ya "Allied forces" na sasa yuko lupango au vipi?

West na US katika plot mpya ya kuzitawala na kuiba mali za umma wa nchi za Afrika na Arab countries. Pia kujaribu kuteka nyara mapinduzi ya kweli waliyoyaanzisha wananchi wa nchi zilizoanzisha maandamano ili wasimike vibaraka wao.

Ile AFRICOM ya US imefikia wapi?
