>Hi Coach,

>I have just read the piece by Saul Khan regarding the plight of this year's
>pilgrims, as was the case of the three previous years.
>We, on the ground commend, Saul Khan for his efforts in finding out about
>the real problems facing the pilgrims who are now stranded in Saudi Arabia
>with very little hope of getting back home anytime soon. Thus far, only
>two flights have returned and the nightmarish stories that these
>unfortunate pilgrims tell are unbelieveable. Thanks to Yahya Jammeh. But
>we must take part of the blame as the sponsors of these prigrims.
>
>I had warned last year and even early on this year, that we should refrain
>from sending our loved ones through these Jammeh criminal syndicate made up
>of Baba Jobe, Amadou Samba, Tarik Musa, Yankuba Touray and Famara Jatta.
>Of course with Yahya Jammeh presiding over the Gang of Six. They are
>responsibible for the plight of the majority of this year's pilgrims (two
>out of five flights) still stranded in Saudi Arabia without a single penny
>to their name and no one to take responsibility for their plight. That's
>how irresponsible Jammeh and his Government are.
>
>We join Saul Khan in appealing to all, especially Diasporans who have
>relatives, friends and acquiantants in the unfortunate majority still
>stranded in Saudi Arabia to make every effort to repatriate them before the
>start of a war on Iraq which seems inevitable at this stage.
>
>Meanwhile, let us assure all that these atrocities, yes atrocities,
>committeed by the Gang of Six are carefully being documented for the day
>when they will be called upon to answer to them. Jammeh and his Crimical
>syndicate MUST and WILL GO.
