"World isolated leaders like Yahya Jammeh of The Gambia wouldn’t hesitate to embrace such so called Arab terrorists posing as investors. The Gambia Government issue business certificates to investors without proper background checks. In situations like this, one cannot be assured that the Jammeh Government is not “welcoming the bad guys” in our country."
Please, please DO NOT let for any reason, your personal feelings against Yaya Jammeh takes over the national issue. Do not portray Gambia into such actions without credible backings. This is a very sensitive issue and it should no way be personalized. Do not picture Gambia into such actions, of course I am not saying no Gambian will do such, you never know but when you are making/giving such postings please do back it with credible proves.
You see, sometimes our personal feelings could take over sensitive issues which at times could be difficult to fight off. However when it comes to national issues, we should all be vigilant and be on our watch and don’t such point fingers. There is a fine line between personal feelings for a government officer particularly the president and a national issue but in any case it is important to know where the boundary lies.

I don't think Freedom is saying that Jammeh is a terrorist recruiter. What it appears to be saying is that the Gambia, considering its socio-economic and geo-political traits, is susceptible to financiers who might be terrorist sympathisers. Since 911, financial network of terrorists and many Islamic charities that funnel funds to Islamist groups have been shut down in Europe and America. Therefore, it is not really farfetched to raise concern that Third World countries with the makeup of the Gambia could be magnets for terrorist financiers and money launderers. Of course the government may not be even aware of this, because the tools for checking and detecting unclean money may not be adequately available in the Gambia particularly. But what the Freedom editors also raised concern about is Jammeh's own propensity to do the unexpected. From his claims of a spiritually motivated cure for HIV-AIDS and his Jihadist world view (symbolized by his machete to cut off the heads of infidels and gays  ) to his latest speech at the U.N. summit in New York where he just stopped short of declaring a physical war on the West over Africa's continued economic deterioration; It could not be a surprise if the Chairman is found behind closed doors with some of the greatest enemies of globalization (the jihadists).
The following features, among others, could render the Gambia susceptible to unscrupulous financiers like the ones our most credible newspaper, Freedom, is warning about:
1. A predominantly Islamic culture
2. An unstable political system where corruption (and possibly drug peddling) is high
3. A perennially weak economy and high rates of poverty and inequality
4. An anti-Western autocratic president
5. A fast growing liberal financial industry with weak oversight.
6. Strong relations with anti-Western rogues like Iran and Libya which are known financiers of terrorists, and Venezuela.
The recent attempted suicide bombing of an American plane enroute to Detroit, Michigan on Christmas day by a 23 year-old Nigerian, the 'panty bomber' compared to Richard Reid, the 'shoe bomber' - a black African - is one of many indicators of the terrorists' attempt to diversify recruits and operation. |

Monday,
Thank you for your words. That is the way it is supposed to be, though I don't blame those that are frustrated with Jammeh. I think Kay got some nice analysis, and honestly agree with him. Here is what I stated at the G-L yesterday regarding the Freedom editorial.
quote:
It is funny how in the spoken Pularr, I have had the elders say "Fohruh nyunih, nyalel tedih," literally meaning, "The hound of the hyena near the moo-ing little calf." Of course, not far from getting to its neck. Since the hyena is a bad animal, whatever of bad mention is normally attributed.
Jammeh is a state terrorist, a desperate one at that. Besides, as recently noted, he befriended enemies of the West like President of Cuba, Venezuela, Iran, etc…One thing is certain, he is a desperate attention-seeker.
I am just afraid that such an editorial might put Gambia under the radar. I believe terror-recruitment is out there, some that are just ready to brain-wash others. The interesting part as I humbly observed, it is not only Islamic extremists, but other religions, political leaders and nations….for their own selfish goals.
I wish you all (admins, contributors, and readers) a holiday full of love.
thanks,
yj

we sometime wonder why Islamic extremists are hateful against freedom loving nations like the United States. America is one of the most peaceful loving nations that one can find on the face of the earth.
What is this clown so-called-newspaper smoking?
These so called imbecile editors should do some investigation before posting this unintelligent farce.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_and_federations_by_military_expenditures
US spend more than 40 % of world spending on military while it has only less than 4 % of population of the world. How the hell they are the peaceful loving nations.
And these so-called clown journalists also need to check the U.S. military campaign. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_United_States_military_operations before even post anything likes that.
quote:
Enemies of freedom are hell bent on undermining United States’ much “cherished peace and values” in the name of terrorism.
Don’t these so-called-journalist comedians know that USA does not mind having good relationships like Saudi Arabia, Egypt where highest extremists exist in the name of their foreign policy and ignore the ‘freedom’?
Does this ignorant newspaper called ‘freedumb’ know that USA veto all the UN resolution against Racist countries like South Africa and Israel?
These uneducated so-called-journalist quotes
quote:
The United States has been playing a leading role in promoting freedom and liberty across the globe. This is evident on the Iraqi invasion, which led to the toppling of Saddam’s despotic regime, and the ongoing efforts to tackle the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Did they realize that USA supported Saddam and they were best friend with him and USA also supported Osama Bin Ladin and Taliban against Soviet?
quote:
God bless the United States and her people.
And these people like dogs barking from USA have no pride sell out their own country for their interests do not mind sell out their soul and nationality “Gambian”.
I have no respect for this newspaper that has more harm Gambia and, once, they called Gambians for violent act against its presidents.

How can you agree with Kayjatta's association of "A predominantly Islamic culture" and terrorism?

Kayjatta is my special friend deserves special attention. But he still did not buy me drink he owes yet.
Kayjatta
Gambia can’t be financial resources for any terrorist network, it is just too poor. Referring Muslims business for a terrorist network is just your speculation and has no base.
You may have some valid point for money laundering but that is usually linked to criminal organization.
Sorry but when did Jammeh referring cut off ‘infidels’ head. Please provide link for it. Besides the stance against gays is not only Islamic, it is also African, Jamaican even nationalist western value. So your linking him to anti-gay is not very valid. I mean, Jamaicans are the worse in terms of being anti-gays, are they also Jihadists?
And since when any critics on west means support of terrorism? And since when globalization is the enemy of Islam. Globalization has enemy from all over world, mostly from the third world countries and even European leftist groups.
A predominantly Islamic culture linking to terrorism is ridiculous. Terrorism has no color, religion and ethnicity. I thought you know better.

Guy's what a lot of crap oozing from Freedomnewspaper as usual! Honestly even suer rats don't stoop so low. To try to implicate President Jammeh as a Terriorist sympathiser demonstrates why these so called journalist are band in Gambia, and when they are caught on her shores are sent straight to Mile Two for their staycation courteousy of the Gambian government with their irresponsible insightment and sole aim of spreading terror amongst the Gambian people.
Unfortunately for some gullible people on the ground who will hear this filfth in the gossip mill will be worried half to death if they presume what they are writing is the truth. Listen up Guy's this love of Gambia that you espouse to does it include the country being sprayed bombed and occupied by US troops. Is this really how you would like to show your family and friends your compassion and hopes for the future.
These writers' seem to be high on those A class narcotics put down the crack pot and go into rehab because that's the only way you'll gonna write some frigin sense!
Peace

Thank you as well Kay.
All is certain, Jammeh's 'waramba' is too big to be empty. He is certaintly strapped onto some belts of jujus, etc...

Kay did you know that Transport For London TFL's Oyster Card was subsidized by the Venzenulans oil under the Former Mayor of London Ken Livingston?
This gun ho approach is very shallow to the current seriousness of the Terror threat but then this is the bantabaa a gossip house not to be taken seriously?? That's why when crack pots were calling for the overthrow of jammeh including YJ. Some fools on the ground took it so seriously and made a vain attempt at carrying it through and guess where they are today lamenting in Mile Two?
Peace
