Excellent article "EU Freezes Aid Over Post-Poll Stalemate."

Will All Africa readership explain to me why when an African nation is at odds with one another European nations and America find it a humanitarian act to cut of food and medicine supplies to the nation?

Please inform me how this is an act of humanity.

Where in Christian ethics is cutting off food supplies and medicine to two people at odds with one another a civilized caring gesture of kindness.

Is it the purpose to persecute and humiliate Kenya, Zimbabwe, Cuba, and other poor nations because after underdeveloping there economies from colonial times the West has the power to penalize at the drop of a hat.

Or is it because Barack Obama is running for the President of the United States of America and his father is from Africa, Kenya you find it honorable to throw your partners in America a bone.

The only words I can come up with is spiteful, spoiled, and cruel.

My recommendations: cut the damn television and radio gossip shows, movies, news, cigarettes, liquor, dope, luxury items, and social entertainment contact.

But to cut of food is immature, childlike, and undiplomatic. I am sorry I have to speak my mind, European Union; and America who is next in line to cut food.

Here in Kenya,we are amazed at the zeal in which the EU has defended ODM's Rigging Cause. At times, Kenyans cannot tell the difference between EU and ODM. The impression created by EU is that there was a consipiracy between them and the leader of the Oppositon to distabilise the country if the opposition failed to win.Kenya should be bold enough to call off EU's bluff and say the to hell with their aid. We all know the MOU EU had with RAILA before elections to make him president at all costs then he will resume monopoly of contracts for Britain and EU countries etc etc. Shame on EU The GK asked them to prove their rigging case but when they failed resulted to AID blackmail because they have no proof. Kibaki's sin is going EAST and shunning the exploitative West. Why do they want to impose a MOBUTU in KENYA? we are not fools you know! Be become a Zimambwe without AId than receive token aid from sadists like EU' Jane wambu

Nyakio, did you do some thourough research before you comment on this article or being pro-illegit government has barred you from pursuing the truth?

This is a splendid move by the EU, Kibaki has proved that he did not win and he is illegally in the office. If Mwai Kibaki really thinks he won why is he scared of a re-run? It is common sence that if he won, he will again. Emilio cannot stand fair election where tallying is done on broad day light carried by neutral international.body This is what scares Mzee Emilio. He is already embarrased and he cannot afford to be embarassed again when he is defeated fairly besides proven to be a thief.

Peple who claims they cannot distinct the difference between ODM and EU must be either ignorant or they need mental evaluation. US and UK are likewise against what EU is, EU has just taken a tougher measure to fight illegit government.
