Jammeh's message is no news to those who know him well.  This is Jammeh at
his best under intense public pressure- brinkmanship! His way and no other
way; self-delusionary threats to the "white people", those against his
"revolution" and finally invoking the name of Allah as if he has just finish
talking to Him on the phone.  Underneath all these empty posturing is a
frustrated, tired COWARD who is trying very hard to be "respected" and
admired.   Jammeh cannot stand the rigors of politics in a civil society.
This is his number one weakness, and that is why I urge the politicians to
unite and challenge him.  As long as they keep quiet, never agitate, and
condemn his evil designs and irresponsible rambling, The Gambia will never
change.  I will say this again and again and again. One does not really need
weapons to get rid of Jammeh.  The Gambian leadership, i. e. Darboe, Halifa,
Bah, the various other civil societies, religious leaders, students and all
those good citizens who sacrificed their blood and sweat to build that
country since 1965 should RISE UP and tell Jammeh that there is only ONE GOD
and His name is not Yaya Jammeh.  These people are the anchors of that
country, not the USA, not UK or the International Community.  The people's
WILL, the only potent power in the Gambia, should be harnessed and organised
under the political leadership of a UNITED FRONT against TYRANNY represented
by Yaya Jammeh.  I bet Yaya will not survive a day in the Gambia.  Please,
Please my fellow Gambians do not buy into this "elections" nonsense.  Jammeh
does not have the will, nor the intention to obey the mandate of the people.
  He gained the State House by force anyway, what will stop him from doing
it again...?  Again I will urge the Opposition to Organize,Agitate, and
Instigate change in that beautiful country.  Another phony "elections" shall
only "legitimize" this devil to do more havoc-kill, kill, kill, rape,
torture and rob the poor.  I know Halifa Sallah has promised that he shall
never participate in the destruction of the country.  Well I believe this is
an oppurtunity for all the opposition to stand by their moral convictions
and BOYCOTT Jammeh's "elections".  What is going on in the Gambia is an
ABSOLUTE WRONG!!! There is no need for further intellectualization of this
very simple fact.  This is a test of the substance of our moral character by
God, and NOT an analytical challenge of our intellect as most of us would
like to believe.  I urge all Gambians to stand for what is RIGHT and JUST.


Greetings.

Ebou Jallow
