If you bothered to read the article, you would have understood that:

1. Raila Odinga and the Kenyan Government were committed to supporting the Christians in Southern Sudan by discreetly supplying them with Russian made tanks.

2. Kibaki, not Odinga heads the Kenyan Government and he was personally very angry that the US Government stood in the way of supporting Christians in Southern Sudan with arms.

3. This issue was dealt with by the Bush administration, not the Obama administration.

World politics is not a mirror image of your silly political food fights. We know you don't like Obama and there are many reasons not to like him, but at least get your facts straight. You do the conservative movement great harm by wading into matters you barely understand.

There is a certain class of American conservatives who make effort to link every bad story from East Africa to Odinga (and by association, Obama) without as much knowing whether Odinga were a man or a horse.

It would be funny if it were not so tragic. Remember that like Socialism, Conservatism supposed to be a World-wide movement. Think about it, how are you going to appeal to the rest of the World if you cannot get your facts straight?

I asked about the RUSSIAN TANKS that ODINGO (as per the article) wanted to smuggle into Uganda.
Where are they NOW, WHO is using them against WHOM? My interest is in 100 US Military personel being placed in harms way.

Point of note: The Farina was not released until after Obama was President. Any movement of the arms was by HIS agreement. Thats why I question it.
