FACTS:
1.He might be popularly elected but that's still in doubt since there were massive opposition boycotts and allegations of fraud. He had said he will not seek re-election sometimes back seeing the revolts that were happening in the Arab world meaning he was beginning to doubt his popularity.
2.We are not forcing anything on Sudan and we are not telling them to arrest their own president.
3.Kenya is obliged to arrest Al Bashir if he sets foot in kenya since they agreed to be part and parcel of the Rome Statute. Bashir has travelled to a few countries since the warrants, some trips being cancelled the last minute after the hosts realised it would hurt there other agendas. Some presidents threatened to boycott some function if Al Bashir was present and he had had to reroute on a trip to china after his plane was refused passage over some country's airspace. As you can see governments are scared of him and he has not had the occassion to visit a country that is willing to arrest him or one that doesn't want anything to do with him. Uganda and Rwanda have declared they would arrest him if he sets foot in their countries.

With the way things are going,seems someone gave a golden opportunity to the west.They wanted and i believe still want Sudan and many other African countries to go the Libyan,Algerian and most importantly Egypt way.However Egypt way failed in Sudan when the arrest warrant was issued.The Wset had hoped Sudanese would riot and protest until Bashir get arrested.These guys after being frustrated retreated to their best strategy (lie in waiting for the best opportunity).Thus i ma not be in the know how this case was initiated and by who in Kenya but that ruling gave them the impetus.We are at war and this is not the best time to engage in other countries affairs and worse still not while our Doctors are on strike.Don,t think its time for the government to act carelessly.
