THANKS TO ALL INTERESTED IN THE NEED TO STUDY THE QUESTION OF SECURITY. THE GAMBIAN AND SUB REGIONAL SITUATION NEEDS SERIOUS SECURITY ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSIONS. TO ALL PATRIOT AND CONCERNED GAMBIANS WITH SECURITY EXPERIENCE. PLEASE REFLECT ON THE BEST POSSIBLE PROCESS OF COORDINATING THE NEEDED SECURITY EXPERIENCES TO BUILD PEOPLES SELF DEFENCE SECURITY STRUCTURES, THE PATRIOTIC, CONCERNED AND EXPERIENCED GAMBIANS MUST LAY THE FOUNDATION FOR GENERAL AND SPECIFIC DIRECTIONS. THE GAMBIAM PEOPLE IN VILLAGES,DISTRICTS, TOWNS AND REGIONS IN COORDINATION WITH THE DIASPORA MUST MOBILISE FOR ALL THE TASKS AHEAD. ONCE THE PEOPLE UNDERSTAND, ACCEPT, AND START BUILDING APPOPRIATE SELF DEFENCE STRUCTURES, ALL FEAR, CRYING, BURYING THE VICTIMS AND MOURNING STOPS AND THE PROCESS OF BREAKING THE MONOPOLY OF BRUTE FORCE OF THE FACISTS STARTS AND ENDS WITH THEIR ENCIRCULMENT AND FINAL DEFEAT. WE MUST CAST AWAY ALL ILLUSION OF AN EASY AND QUICK DEFEAT.WE MUST PREPARE FOR THE WORST GIVEN THEIR HISTORY AND IF THE PROCESS IS SHORTER WELL AND GOOD. WE MIGHT NOT ONLY BE FACING GAMBIAN FACIST GIVEN THE COORDINATED NATURE OF THE SUB-REGIONAL SECURITY CRISIS , THEREFORE THE NEED TO THINK AND PREPARE FOR A LONGER AND WIDER CRISIS WITH SUB REGIONAL FACIST FIGHTING IN GAMBIA.WE MUST NOT FORGET THE LESSONS OF SENEGALESE MILITARY INTERVENTION IN 1981.
