The point is ajabi weather or not the opposition is a mafia, the rule of law and norms of decency dictates that the basic human rights must be respected.The process for a free and fair elections shall decide, sadly Guinea has never had any not even the slightest form of democracy or rule of law.

Ajabi! would you have supported Dadis if a member of your family was a victim of the septmber 28 masacre? sometimes you need to put youself in the victimes` or the Parents of the victimes` place and ask youself why are 150 people killed in a small City like Conakry just a day and and it tends to be continued.

I think Unlce Tom (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncle_Tom )took it upon himself to commit those crimes to embarass Comrade Moussa. But, Uncle Tom overstepped. He went too far. Instead of bringing down the government he has now exposed himslef to Un invesigation and probable ICC charges because Comrade Moussa's government seems to have taken command of the army and is cooperating with the criminal investigation. This is why Uncle Tom is on the phone to the French news media talking about "I am scared. We need international intervention to help us." loooooooooooooooool So funny. Big bad soldier Unlce Tom crying and begging the French to rescue him. The days ahead will be very intersting. hahaha

My brother, lets stop blaming other people for the feaces, or toilet in out own backyard or pants, it has nothing to do with any Uncle Tom.If one fears that there is a mafia about to take over any government a truly free and democratic system can elect leaders who truly represent the will of the people. If the system upholds rule of law, accountability and is transparent no mafia can take control of any Government.

The question is does the rape, murder and ofcourse same old corruption, the perfect way to stop 50 years of corruption.There are better ways, that needs not see us behave like animals and start blaming other people senselesly.The days ahead are not intreasting, but shall see the difference between those who decide to live as civilized beings and the mentally deranged and delusionary revolutionaries willing to kill to protect their greed.The Guinean people shall succeed in having a civilized state.

Elections have already been set by CNDD. This is certainly a step in the right direction. And, they will be the first elections since Sekou Toure’s PDG government. This is why it is so crazy and irrational to see huge demonstrations at this time. I have used the word “Uncle Tom” to describe those who are opposed to this progress. I do not know who is behind the chaos. But, I suspect that they are tied to the old Conte regime. These you have called “mafia”.

In any case, CNDD is the only thing left that offers hope of a better deal for the people of Guinea. If CNDD falls, there will be nobody except the same old non-sense of dope dealing and corruption that we have seen since the PDG was destroyed. If PDG could be revived, things could be different.

Thanks to PDG, thousand of Guinean died, an illiterate like Conté had all chance to become president and thanks to PDG, we have today a band of loutish soldiers who are governing the country. What are you thinking my brother? The PDG is the root of all the pain Guinea has suffered and is suffering still today.

If you say.

PDG was a lagal and legitimate government. Traitors were put on trial, found gulity, snetneced to death and executed. All the while, PDG was defending the country sucessfully against attacks and invasions from Protugal and other European powers.

The main point is about legality and legitimacy. This mess started when arbitrary tyranny was imposed by the military. Not only did that undermine and destroy legitimacy, it destroyed the army. Thus, they are now little more than thugs and criminals. This is not pDG's fault.

PDG's faulf was in not namng a new head of state when Sekou Toure died. This was their big mistake which left a power vacuum that the army filled. But, the army had been trying to get into politics for decades. This is why Sekou Toure resotrted to such harsh measures: to keep the army out of politics. He executed generals found gulity of treason. He should have executed more.

The PDG could not have named ANY SUCCESSOR it was a dictatorship, that included the Army in political governance, the Army was the backbone behind Sekou Toure and naturally, they claimed power when he died. That is the trend that must be broken, with an impartial body to conduct elections, and we make a start with a real democratic process. As i have always stated, we do not need the CNDD, we need an acceptable constitution, with appropriate institutions of governance for Mafia and crooks of any sorts to be kept out of power.U live in America my brother, cant u understand what is meant by the RULE OF LAW, where the law is supreme and not men.We do not need strong men.
I was shocked by your defence of the PDG,in this day and age one calls for more executions,it speaks volumes on what your values are!

My values are anti-colonialism, anti-slavery, unification and peace, in that order. There will be no peace until Africa is United. We prefer poverty in freedom to riches in slavery. And, we prefer violence in unity to "peace" in disunity. What are your "values"? Cowardice? Traitors? Uncle Toms and Aunt Jemimas?

PDG helped to lead Africa to political independence. When all of the Uncle Toms in French colonized Africa preferred to to kiss DeGaul's behind so that the leader could get rich, the courageous people of Guinea chose to be free. And, they voted in refendum to prove their desire for freedom. What kind of "dictatorship" is that? This so embarrased the traitors and cowards that they were forced by their own people to seek independence from France. Yet, even today, there are STILL Freanch colonies in Africa.

And, that is the real problem. France no longer has direct control over Guinea. But, they aspire to continue to control Guinea indirectly so that they can continue to steal the resources without paying for them. CNDD stands for National Council for Democracy and Development. To that end, they are seeking a better deal by diversifying who buys Guinea's resources. This is a direct threat to French and western interests. Yet, the deal that we are considering now is said to be worth $7 billion. That is more thasn the entire gross domestic product of Guinea. It would put the country on the road to serious Development and Democracy.

But, the real issue is this: there is no visible alternative to CNDD excdept Unle Tom and his corrupt dope dealing. Now Brother, what kind of "values" are those? Dope dealing, indeed.
