I agree entirely with you Galleh.
I do have a proposition for you, I wonder if you will work with me on this:
Join me in supporting the AU and see their isolation of the carburant Camara for whatever its worth. I also encourage you to work with me in encouraging the people of La GUinea and opposition stakeholders in demanding earlier legislative and presidential elections in La Guinea than 2010. We will talk later. I am of the same view as you regarding the spectacular hypocrisy partout. I comfort you that the hypocrite is unintelligent.
I look forward to your company in these and many more demarches in the immediate future.
Haruna.

Ostensibly, the AU is protesting unconstitutional governance represented by military rule. I'd say unconstitutional governance is what obtains in many AU member states, even though their heads are supposedly civilians. The concept of unconstitutionality should also be legitimately applied to civilian regimes that have no respect for constitutional provisions, human rights and the rule of law, or that change their constitutions at will to accomodate the greedy wishes of their civilian despots. If the current military regime in Guinea deserves suspension, so does Zimbabwe, Gambia, Togo and all those other countries where constitutions are being prostituted to the highest bidder. As things stand, many African heads of state are trembling on their seats for fear of a coup in their countries. It is amazing how the international community sits quietly by watching despots create conditions for military coups and other cvil crises and then suddenly start making threatening noises when they happen. Militray rule certainly = unconstitutional rule. But is civilian rule = constitutional rule? The hypocrisy of international politics is simply sickening. Thanks for sharing Haruna. Baba

L’Union africaine suspend la Guinée après le coup d’Etat militaire à ConakryThe African Union suspends La Guinea after the military imposed itself on Conakry.
L’Union africaine (UA) a suspendu lundi la Guinée des activités de l’organisation continentale après le coup d’Etat de la junte militaire mardi à Conakry, et ce jusqu’au "retour de l’ordre constitutionnel" dans ce pays , a annoncé l’UA dans un communiqué. "L’Union africaine a décidé de suspendre la participation de la Guinée Conakry aux activités de l’Union africaine jusqu’au retour de l’ordre constitutionnel dans ce pays", selon un communiqué transmis à l’AFP en marge d’une réunion à Addis Abeba, siège de l’UA, sur la situation en Guinée. A l’issue d’une première réunion le 24 décembre sur la situation en Guinée, l’UA avait menacé de sanctions "fermes" les militaires putschistes "dans le cas où le coup d’Etat serait consommé". Un coup d’Etat militaire a été mené mardi sans violence à Conakry, au lendemain du décès du général-président Lansana Conté après 24 années à la tête de la Guinée. Le chef de la junte, le capitaine Moussa Dadis Camara, s’est autoproclamé "président de la Republique" et tout le gouvernement renversé lui a fait allégeance.
