US Secretary of State John Kerry visited Kenya and officially met with President Uhuru Kenyatta on Wednesday, 4th May 2015. Among the key issues discussed by the two leaders pertain to commercial transactions between Kenya and America, the malice of terrorism and the issue of peace and security especially in the country of Somalia and South Sudan.

We would like to comment on this visit:

The American rule is a colonial one that regards itself possessing the authority to decide for Kenya and the entire so-called third world countries their issues pertaining to all spheres of life be it political, economic or social. It is crystal clear that our countries despite shouting their independence, they are actually regarded as federals or regions of the western countries that ought to heed and obey!
Regarding what emerged on the discussion, here is its clarifications,

Concerning commercial transactions, it is apparent that the reason behind the commercial transactions between Kenya and America is to compel Kenya to spaciously open up its door for giant multinational companies owned by the American tycoons. America is mindful that the British tycoons run a huge section of the commerce and business in Kenya and, it is now stalking to achieve its position. Most importantly is that the ordinary man will have nothing to gain, instead will continue to be cheap labourers in those companies.

As for the war on terror, it is crystal clear that America is the greatest do nor of this war. Mr. Kerry tends to deliberately make the citizens of Kenya forget the tainted American history in which America has been carrying out terrorist acts then using them to realize their heinous colonial agenda. Typical example being, in 1960 before America invaded Cuba, American soldiers deliberately bombed their own crafts then pinned the blame on Cuba. America has been sponsoring militias in other countries for its own interests then brand them with the terrorists' name. Thus America has nothing to fret about the security of Kenya; instead it is America itself that landed Kenya into this mess of bloodshed of innocent people. It should be clearly apprehended that on its tussle with the Soviet Union, for the abundant natural resources in Africa, America in collaboration with Europe used to claim that the dearth of security and the wide spread of destitution in Africa is only a consequence of the lack of a multi-party democracy in Africa. This is the outcome now. Africa has become the scuffle and battle field before and even after the democratic elections. We can now perceive that the threat of terrorism is nothing but another new excuse to continue to siphon our natural resources. Above all, if Kerry is really committed to win the war on terror, as he claims, he must actually commence with his own soldiers who lynch innocent people day and night with his drones.

Concerning the question of peace and security in the country of Somalia and South Sudan, the question that ought to be asked first is, before discussing peace in these countries, who landed these countries into this calamity if it is not their victory over Europe in their scramble for the natural resources of these countries?

Finally, we would like to say that America and its capitalist ideology is the sole source of all the problems worldwide. Its proponents roam the whole world trying covertly to conceal their own shame, and the disaster, failure and shortcomings of their ideology. There is a need to bring about another one as an alternative, instead of this one which has intrinsically failed from its inception. An ideology that will save the entire world from the calamities emanating from the American colonialism. Definitely, that ideology is no other than Islam that comes from The Creator of the Universe. That is the only ideology which is needed in the world which can guarantee the rights of the people, and justice and tranquility.
