MOHAMED ABDI.LINK

Tuesday, December 05, 2006 MOHAMED ABDI(WALI)..AN ASPIRING MANDERA EAST MP Ex-Marine Mohamed Abdi (left) with US Senator Barrack Obama is slated to kick-off his bid to become a member of Kenyan parliament Minneapolis, MN (HOL) -

Ex-Marine Mohamed Abdi focused on Congressman-elect(Minnesota, USA) Keith Ellison’s campaign for the past several months, all the while making important national and international connections for his own bid to the Kenyan parliament.

Ellison is paying back the favor.

He was a keynote speaker at a fundraising event on Saturday, where dozens of Abdi’s friends in the Marines and others from around the world pledged to support him financially and morally.

In the words of one attendee, it was a “mini United Nations gathering in Minneapolis for the sake of a man who vies to represent Mandera East,” a small town in the porous border between Somalia and Kenya, in the elite-dominated Kenyan parliament.

Abdi, who moved to the U.S in 1995, resembles the United Nations in many ways.

He grew up in the Somali-inhabited Northeastern region (NFD) in Kenya.He’s fluently multilingual in English, Swahili and Somali. He’s a dual U.S and Kenyan citizen, who can probably easily obtain a Somali citizenship...

------------

Note the date, 2006. The candidate didn't win the seat.

However, on the news tonight, Mandera East was brought up as the region most endangering Kenya from Somali muslim extremists, who live on both sides of the Somali/Kenyan border. Military brass commented in no uncertain terms as to how they planned to protect Kenya from infiltration, they fear for the nation...

Obama's support of Raila Odinga who reportedly signed an agreement with muslims to institute sharia law - and the financial support for ODM by 'friends of Senator BO' (even though Raila Odinga was given the position of Prime Minister to halt the riots) doesn't mean he's going to live a charmed life in Kenya forever:

Keep your eye on Kenya. Something's up.

They are there to get advice from murderous dictators.

I don't know yet whether at Obama's request (he's clearly in over his childish little head), or to figure out how to supplant Obama and re-seize power themselves...(e.g. two more Clinton terms in the White House, this time with Hillary as President; and then it'd be time for Chelsea to run.)

Cheers!

I guess we know where Obama got his campaign slogans.

I think that was sarcasm.

Couple this with Bill’s trip to North Korea: it is very odd indeed.

Yes, this has a whiff of intrigue about it, doesn't it.

More than a whiff, actually. Can't trust Obama, Hillary, Bill, or Al. Or Kim.

Those two "journalists" -- poor things were probably mere pawns. And nobody just walks into North Korea and hauls away two political prisoners.

It was geopolitical theatre, plain and simple.

Since that was my very first thought when I heard she went, maybe it isn’t such a joke after all. Slick’s jaunt to Korea was perfect cover for whatever nefarious stuff she is up to. Why Kenya? Why now?

Hey Hillary, while in Kenya visit Obama Birth place for a photo op. You might need it in your next run for the White House. How long will you stick with this clown before you are tarred with his brush of corruption?

“The Secretary of State’s seven-country jaunt began yesterday in Kenya, where she took aim at political corruption and graft.”

In other news, her husband will be traveling to Bangkok to launch a worldwide campaign against extramarital sexual relations.

I was being generous.
By them selves, they have not developed any civilization.

Their feudal systems will not allow it. Ideas, influence.... sorry , you cannot be more powerful than a chief who got his chiefdom by successive patrilineage inheritance.I believe that to be the single largest contributor to their backwards state. Hand in hand with the voo-doo, Islam has gotten married to the tribal practices. Thus the people are suppresse and oppressed by their system and Islam. They don’t have to blame whitey. Shit! Look to Zimbabwe as an example of Africans in action!

Well, re. corruption, Obama sure sent an expert on in in sending Clinton.

The biggest question is, is Clinton’s objection to it, due to not getting a piece of their pie? Travelled all that way and Clinton didn’t get a payoff?

“The absence of strong, effective democratic institutions has permitted ongoing corruption, impunity, politically motivated violence, human-rights abuses and a lack of respect for the rule of law,” Mrs. Clinton said at a press conference”

Was Clinton referring to other countries as well, or just the USA?

Well, railing at corruption in Africa without naming names is, of course, meaningless.

Who is she talking about, Thabo Mbeki or Railla Odinga? After all, Obama supported Odinga not only because he was his cousin, but because all the leftist presstitutes were saying that Mbeki and his Kikiyus were corrupt dictators and that it was time for a change—namely, Odinga.

Which of the two does Hillary herself resemble more closely? I’d say she and Odinga have a lot in common.

Thats because the Birthers have managed to exert that much pressure.

O did NOT expect this much resistance to either him or his push to institute Socialism!
