Gambia-L:

The e-mail below came from a source. Anyway, because of limited access to
the internet these days (we are on vacation), I am sending it unedited.

Ebrima Ceesay,

>Your friend Jammeh is at it again. He may be the only head of state who

>succeeded in getting Charles Taylor and Tejan Kabbah to invite him to visit
>Liberia and Sierra Leone. What Kabbah doesn't know is that he is inviting
>trouble by allowing Jammeh to go to Freetown where he will try to inject
>himself into the Foday Sankoh's affair. However, what Charles sees is an
>opportunity to further complicate an already sensitive and delicate
>situation in the Sierra Leone civil war. Taylor is already in a big fix
>within Liberia with rebel activities in Loffa County increasingly
>threatening his personal Kingdom of Liberia. He is already a pariah in the
>eyes of the international community because of his gun running activities
>and dealing in "blood diamonds". Charles is cornered and he knows it. Being
>of the same mold and sharing the same Godfather Ghadaffi, Charles would
>like Yahya to meddle(he is an expert in that field)in the Foday Sankoh's
>imprisonment by offering to "mediate". Kabbah will, of course, not
>entertain any offer from Jammeh because Sierra Leoneans have told Kabbah in
>no uncertain term that if he lets Sankoh off the hook the second time
>around, they will go for Kabbah's own skull. Besides, the UN will not allow
>any interference from any one, including Jammeh. But that will not deter
>Jammeh because he sees an opportunity to further line his pocket. He has
>his eyes on the blood diamonds in the region which is still under the
>control of the elements of the RUF, who in turn are protected by Taylor.
>While in Monrovia, he will try to register his now world famous aircraft
>off-shore which the entire international media are trying to trace to the
>Russian number one gun runner who was jailed in absensia in Bangui three
>months ago. He may succeed in getting local registration but not under
>Liberia's flag of convenience because aircrafts are not covered, contrary
>to the views of his ignorant advisers. Thanks to the Gambia-L, the aircraft
>which he publicly acknowledged in Senegal as the owner, is now of
>particular interest to Gambians and many other countries. In case he is
>thinking of denying ownnership,we have on video tape his interview claiming
>ownership. Just a reminder Yahya, in case you forgot what you said at
>LSSenghore International Airport in Dakar.
>The United Nations and the entire international community, particularly the
>British are watching every step you take in Freetown and Monrovia. You may
>be about to burn your fingers, once more. YAHYA JAMMEH, BEWARE. (Ebrima,
>Jammeh intends to visit Angola later in the year, again to get involved in
>the "blood diamond" business.)
