OBAMA’S COUSIN ODINGA: NECKLACING IN THE FAMILY AND THE TRIBE


There is little doubt that Raila Odinga is no champion of either democracy or Islam, but rather a
brutal and power-hungry thug who happens to have hitched his wagon to US-British imperialism.
One observer writes that


Obama’s involvement in Kenyan politics, whether tribal or religious, is bothersome. On January
2nd, in classic Marxist tradition, Obama’s Kenyan 1st cousin, Raila Odinga, accused President
Mwai Kibaki of stealing the Dec. 27 election, and rallied his Luo followers in western Kenya,
demanding a new election. Kibaki “must step down or there must be a re-election — in this I
will not be compromised. You cannot steal my cow, and I catch you red-handed, and then
expect me to share the milk because the cow is mine.” More than 1,000 people, mostly Kikuyu
Christians, have been killed and 300,000 forced from their homes by Odinga’s followers.^112
To some this may look like Marxism, but the method is that of the classical National
Endowment for Democracy people power coup or color revolution. An interesting side light to all
this is that “Raila Odinga named his daughter after Winnie Mandela, who championed the act of
necklacing – murdering an opponent by putting a burning rubber tire around his neck — in South
Africa some years back. His son is named for Fidel Castro.”^113


BRZEZINSKI: KICK THE CHINESE OUT OF AFRICA


The calculation being made by Brzezinski and other diehard defenders of US-UK world
domination is that the novelty of Obama’s black face can be used to refurbish their own image to
the point where a counteroffensive against the Chinese in Africa will become possible in the short
run. Think first of George Bush attempting to convince African leaders that they should join in the
campaign of London and Washington to impose economic sanctions on Zimbabwe, because —
irony of ironies — Bush is offended by the alleged fact that Mugabe uses vote fraud to maintain his
hold on power! Clearly, Bush’s chances of prevailing in such requests would be minimal. But now
imagine that it is Barack Hussein Obama who is making the appeal to the African states to join in
the latest imperialist campaign. Now, the imperialist chances, although still low, have decidedly
improved. Obama went to Africa in large part to show that he could appeal directly to the African
masses, but once again the inherent professorial elitism and pedantry of this haughty Luo got in the
way. Here is a first-person account:


In late August, for the third time in his life, he traveled to Kogelo, the tiny, grassless village in
western Kenya where his father had grown up the son of a Muslim goat herder and where the
senator’s grandmother still lives. There is something absurd about the collision of Obama’s
worlds, right now, dozens of microphones thrust in the face of this eighty-five-year-old woman
who has spent her life in this amazingly obscure place and barely knows her grandson. But this
is part of the Obama legend, the globalized Abe Lincoln: This is his log cabin, a generation
removed. When his caravan pulls into the village, thousands of people are waiting for him, a
