Did Odinga comment on the Cole bombing or the Nairobi embassy bombing before 9-11? Freepers, google, dogpile, msn search, etc. Googling is okay but sometimes other search engines have the best surprises. FV
Funds have been coming out of west Africa to support Al Qaeda for years.
Al Qaeda operatives settled themselves into several communities along Kenya’s East Coast. In 2004, US Marine Brigadier General Martin Robeson, then commander of the regional US led antiterror task force based in Djibouti warned that hundreds of new Al Qaeda members had been recruited in Kenya, despite stepped up antiterrorism efforts. U.S. intelligence officials mentioned repeatedly, that apprehended suspects included members of Al Qaeda and Al Itihaad al Islamiya, considered the most powerful radical band in the Horn of Africa, which has been funded by Al Qaeda. Counter terrorist intelligence reports have identified the Dabaab refugee camp on the Somalia- Kenya border as a training ground for Islamic extremists, through a Muslim charity, called al Haramain, that sponsored religious schools and social programs.
Danny Pearl was tracking the Al Qaeda funding and he traced it to the mines in Tanzania. The gems and humans [trafficking] used Islamic controlled rat routes to bring them to free-trade havens such as Dubai and Hong Kong.
But Danny Pearl was murder before the rest of his research was published.

Best I can tell, terrorism is unpopular in Kenya. I did some searching and Odinga makes strong anti-terror speeches in public [even though he has henchmen murder for him].
