Keeping Peace In The Ivory Coast

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

There are some real questions about the recent election in the Ivory Coast.  The current president, Laurent Gbagbo, has claimed that there was serious election fraud in the recent election. 

According to an article at Wire Update:

"Côte d'Ivoire's Constitutional Council on Friday overturned Sunday's run-off results and declares incumbent president Laurent Gbagbo as winner."  

"...Goude and Gbagbo's supporters want an international investigation to be conducted about the alleged election fraud. They said the results would validate the Ivorian Constitutional Commission's ruling that declared Gbagbo the winner."

The thing to understand here is that there were armed supporters of Gbagbo's Muslim opponent, Alassane Ouatarra, who were asked to disarm before the election, but failed to comply.  When you look closely at what is happening here, it appears that the neighboring Muslim countries are attempted to set up a Muslim state in the Ivory Coast.  Unfortunately, most of the international community is coming down on the wrong side of this issue.

In recent years, America has certified elections that were seriously flawed--Venezuela is one recent example.  The situation in the Ivory Coast is not a result of a President who refuses to give up power--it is the result of a Muslim who wants to set up a Muslim state in the country.  When you consider the slaughter of Christians in other African countries controlled by Muslims, it might be a really good idea to keep President Gbagbo in office.
