About 50 parishioners were locked into the Assemblies of God church before it was set ablaze. They were mostly women and children. Those who tried to flee were hacked to death by machete-wielding members of a mob numbering 2,000.
The 2008 New Year Day atrocity in the Kenyan village Eldoret, about 185 miles northwest of Nairobi, had all the markings of the Rwanda genocide of a decade earlier.
By mid-February 2008, more than 1,500 Kenyans were killed. Many were slain by machete-armed attackers. More than 500,000 were displaced by the religious strife. Villages lay in ruin. Many of the atrocities were perpetrated by Muslims against Christians.
The violence was led by supporters of Raila Odinga, the opposition leader who lost the Dec. 27, 2007, presidential election by more than 230,000 votes. Odinga supporters began the genocide hours after the final election results were announced Dec. 30. Mr. Odinga was a member of Parliament representing an area in western Kenya, heavily populated by the Luo tribe, and the birthplace of Barack Obama's father.
Mr. Odinga had the backing of Kenya's Muslim community heading into the election. For months he denied any ties to Muslim leaders, but fell silent when Sheik Abdullahi Abdi, chairman of the National Muslim Leaders Forum, appeared on Kenya television displaying a memorandum of understanding signed on Aug. 29, 2007, by Mr. Odinga and the Muslim leader. Mr. Odinga then denied his denials.

I thought you meant the massacres in Kenya was a ruse. I thought I missed something.
Regardless of who the sperm donor was, he still campaigned against a sitting government that was backed by the USA.
BTTT.
Why didn’t this STAY on the side bar?
THIS IS ELECTION TIME! THIS STUFF IS LEGIT!
And look at this one from AFRICAN PRESS INTERNATIONAL.
It backs up The Washington Times article, and the article from Hannity.com
What the heck is up?
Why isn’t something this horrific all over the news?
I’m feeling so sick to my stomach over this. We are talking Obama campaigning with Odinga IN KENYA RESULTING in the deaths of innocent children, women and men. On a Visa and on OUR TAX dollars and time!
For SIX LONG DAYS!
The current Government was helping US in our fight against Al Qaeda. It’s AGAINST the Logan Act for him to have done what he did...
Here’s the African article incase I hadn’t included it.
But more so, am I blind or is this thread MISSING from the side bar threads. That’s where everyone looks for main articles.
This is the NIGHT BEFORE ELECTION! This is TRUE!
The main stream media won’t report it.. Africans can’t get it reported. What in the heck is going on here?
If only this had gotten out. This is so horrific. Why?
I’m sick right now, but as I came in to check on this, I think it’s been pulled from the side bar threads. Tonight of all nights!! :o(
I don’t understand this ...
Clearly, Obama campaigned for someone who is corrupt, ruthless and has financial ties to terrorists. More importantly, Obama campaigned for a candidate who had the stated objective of dismantling US & Kenyan government efforts to root out Al Queda and other terrorist organizations. Organizations that had already caused the deaths of hundreds of Americans and Africans in embassy bombings.
PERSONALLY, I THINK THEY WERE INTENTIONAL. WHY ELSE WOULD HE BE IN CONSTANT CONTACT WITH HIM?
I WISH THIS HADN’T BEEN PULLED OFF THE SIDE BAR THREADS.
ESPECIALLY THE NIGHT BEFORE THE ELECTION.
ALL THOSE INNOCENT CHILDREN AND WOMEN/MEN KILLED (HACKED TO DEATH). LITTLE KIDS RAPED OR SODOMIZED. IT WAS “REAL” TO THEM!!!
OBAMA KNOWS THIS!
If only WE could have gotten the truth out. WHY COULDN”T WE?
Why didn’t this thread stay on the side bars here at FR?
We’ve been members here since 1998. This site has been the providers of truth since it started.
I’m heartbroken tonight.
For those who died because the BIG SHOT SENATOR came to visit in Kenya, and for the loss of Christianity in Kenya.
Dear God...
I never knew how evil he was. I sensed something.. but truly I never knew.
I would be MORE than happy to have a President Lynn Swann one day. After President McCain. Lynn Swann is running to be Governor of Pennsylvania. He’s been a fantastic advocate for Senator McCain.
I’m extremely disappointed in J.C. Watts. I haven’t heard him endorse McCain yet!
It’s Tuesday am. NOTHING about this. And,... on the Africa Press International they said they had given Fox News Hannity and Greta some tapes on Michelle Obama. That they were to release them and that they had passed the deadline!
You will find all of this on the African link.
They had sent “LEGAL” notice to Fox news. Because they had been ASSURED this would be released BEFORE THE ELECTION!!!
I think they wanted this stuff out!
Thanks. Just like the Florida reporter said “Marxist”.
Everything I just read was right off that website!
The people are being led to the slaughter like sheep.
WILLINGLY.. because they are lazy. FAT and lazy!
well, if it is prophecy, and bound to happen, it probably will. I’m headed to the polls to fight it.
May God be with us as we try to do what we believe is right...
God protect us. Especially lay a protective hand over our brave men and women serving our nation.
Here is a great article regarding President Bush. We have never waivered in our belief that what he has been doing is right. There are people out there trying to do us in. People “here” trying to do us in.
This man was a reporter/lawyer in John Kerry’s 04 campaign. It really shocked me to see he had written this today. But it’s exactly how we feel.
