A commet on Salim Lone's commentary, 'Beheadings in Kenya much more than security threats' (DN27thMay07)

Hello Mr. Salim Lone! That is a remarkable story! I think the government, especially the security minister is kind of 'delaying' to deal with them since they happen to exist in a homogenous socio-political and cultural setting. This is an issue they need to address with acute intolerence.

I think the blame game between the security minister (executive) and the judiciary is a sort of scapegoat that offers a better and more fertile nursery bed for the growth of 'Mungiki' into a tyrannical empire within a lawful government. If they are allowed to advance their terror, archaic persecutions of innocent Kenyans, they will gain the mentality complex that they can even execute their terror on the leaders. After the innocent man on the street, who next?


With time (if they are allowed to 'grow') they will tend be more organised with complex networks and will be bleeding hungry to lead a nation. But, how can this come to pass, they will feel so superior as to attempt to stage a rebellion against the powers that be.


Mr. Salim, I think you should tell them how rebel groups, some of which have led to collapsed governments by taking power themselves, can be formented! This situation should be contained without fear or favour.

Good day


JM.
