Ousman Bojang,

Well thanks for your mail, how ever I must straightened things for you.I am
not the author of the mail in question,all what I did was give access to the
use of my subscribed email a/c to a friend to contribute to the on ongoing
discussion on the list.If this was a wrong move (offending)in your opinion
then I my sorry for what ever it caused you and your family.But remember not
everyone of us owns a pc and or has    access to one.It was and still my
believe that everyone has a right to his opinion and since that was the case
and inother to broaden the discussion on the L , the need to be  flexible
matters.

For your inf.Ous,I will refer you to my earlier mail to ELHADJ/JABOU on
their call for forgiveness to those brothers of ours who worked with Jammeh
but quit later when they realised the devil in him.I called on people to
abstain from the use of abusive/foul language or the war of words and
redirect our efforts on the many pending cases back home especially the
killings of innocent unarmed students.How then can I turn around and engage
someone i dont know nothing about into the same uncalled attacks---Does it
make a sense at all ?

Ousman ,I for one does not harbour such things,the author of the said mail
will soon subscribe to the L and you can continue whatever you want to
engage each other to ,but for now lets maintain peace and contribute
positively to the unfolding events back home.However it was good to hear
from you may be that will pave way to positive things in future.

BEKAYE FAAL
