Kenyan Muslims Demand Obama’s Cousin Raila Odinga Keep His Promises
From February 2008…
The secret details of the high-level meetings US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice held with President Kibaki and ODM leader Raila Odinga in her few hours of diplomacy in Nairobi can be revealed today.
[...]
On the basis of the information gathered since the disputed elections, Dr Rice is said to have delivered to President Kibaki and his team on the one side and to ODM leader Raila Odinga (man on right on photo) and his group on the other a three-fold message laying out the concerns of the United States and the international community.
[...]
The third issue was based purely on Washington’s concern over international terrorism. It is understood Dr Rice told the two sides that the US believed that should political instability take hold in Kenya, then terrorism would have found a new home.
[...]
Dr Rice reminded the government and ODM of America’s war on terror and the suspected Al Qaeda activities in the neighbouring Somalia which is struggling to establish a central government after 17 years of civil war.
I wonder, if at the time of her mission, that Rice was aware that Raila Odinga, Barack Obama’s cousin, had already made commitments to Kenyan muslims promising to thwart America’s efforts to prosecute terrorists, in addition to promising that he would help institute sharia law.
Even more sinister has been Mr. Odinga’s electoral pact with the National Muslim Leaders’ Forum — a hardline Islamist organization that represents Kenya’s Muslim minority. According to this document, dated August 29, 2007, Mr. Odinga promised the Muslim leaders that, if elected, he would establish Sharia courts, not only in the northern and coastal regions where Kenyan Muslims are concentrated, but throughout the country.
He also promised to impose Muslim dress codes on women, ban alcohol and pork, indoctrinate children, ban Christian preaching, and dismiss the Commissioner of Police “who has allowed himself to be used by heathens and Zionists.”
In short, Mr. Odinga in effect offered to Islamize Kenya in return for Muslim votes, despite the fact that Muslims make up only 10% of the population, compared to the 80% who are Christian. Mr. Odinga himself is nominally an Anglican, yet he signed a document that refers to Islam throughout as “the one true religion” and denigrates Christians as “worshippers of the cross.” (Source)
Well, it seems that the “National Muslim Leaders” intend to collect on all of Odinga’s promises. It sounds like they get their victim training from CAIR - some of this garbage comes straight from their handbook. How dare anyone accuse poor abused muslims of terror.
Sphere: Related ContentWe would like to remind you, Honourable Prime Minister Sir, of the memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that you signed with Muslim leaders prior to the last general elections, where you committed yourself to stand as a beacon of hope in the face of injustice, and support institutions where ‘credible evidence’ and not ‘ethnicity’ was the barometer of guilt.
In particular we would like to draw your attention to clause (E)(b)(4) of the memorandum where you committed yourself to ‘specific action’ to protect the rights of marginalised groups in the country:
‘Specific action will include the setting up of a commission to inquire on deliberate schemes and actions of the government , its agencies or officers, to target or interfere with welfare and social well-being of Muslims in Kenya as citizens including renditioning of Kenyans to Somalia, Ethiopia and Guantanamo Bay. Such schemes and actions will be put to an end and public officers responsible for the same named and held to account .’
With the foregoing Mr. Prime Minister Sir, we would like to humbly pose the following questions to you:
• When will the government of Kenya bring back the deportees to be accorded justice in Kenyan jurisdiction as the constitution and laws of the land provide?

[ed note: violin playing, insert CAIR whine]
The Muslims are a community that has lived under the blinding glare of injustices, reaching the peak with the so called US war on terror, being forced to cower as foreign powers seek to convince the world of their righteousness and of the guilt of Muslims. Their moral superiority has been eroded dramatically as they blatantly flout the same rules that they have established to govern themselves, but which they feel Muslims are not worthy of. Hitherto hallowed fundamental human rights principles like adherence to the Rule of Law; Prohibition against Torture and Protection against Arbitrary Detention have been discarded on the wayside and left Muslims open to the arm of their tyranny.
[...]Suffice it to say that your promise to deal with the whole issue of human rights violations in the guise of fighting terrorism and specifically the renditions endeared you to majority Muslim voters and defenders of human rights. We pray that you shall not be party to their feeling continuously let down even by the grand coalition government.
