cutters, reporters and soda pop
http://www.sunmt.org/bushsenegal.html(this is a report by a Senegal citizen)
More than 1,500 persons have been arrested and put
in jail between Thursday and Monday. Hopefully they will be released now
that the Big Man is gone

All trees in places where Bush will pass have been cut. Some of
them have more than 100 years

Bush's visit to the Goree Island is another story. As you may know Goree
is a small Island facing Dakar where from the 15th to the 19th century,
the African slaves to be shipped to America were parked in special
houses called slave houses. One of these houses has become a Museum to
remind humanity about this dark period and has been visited by kings,
queens, presidents. Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton, and before them,
Nelson Mandela, the Pope, and many other distinguished guests or
ordinary tourists visited it without bothering the islanders. But for
"security reasons" this time, the local population was chased out of
their houses from 5 to 12 AM. They were forced by the American security
to leave their houses and leave everything open, including their
wardrobes to be searched by special dogs brought from the US.

Our president was not allowed to make a speech. Only Bush spoke when he
was in Goree. He spoke about slavery. It seems that he needs the vote of
the African American to be elected in the next elections, and wanted to please them.
That's why he visited Goree.
