1. Since the recommended solution seems to be to "shut down" such channels conveying "hate speech"; should I expect that we would also shut down the offending vernacular FM radio stations in Kenya (re; 2007/8 PEV) whose utterances/actions contributed to hundreds of thousands of Kenyans becoming internal refugees after the 2007 elections? And we haven't counted the thousands who died. When do we shut down the radio/TV stations?? 2. A more important issue for Kenya is the emerging evidence that the hate that tore this nation apart in 2007/8 is simmering in several provinces as tribes acquire weapons in the event violence recurs. * * WM On Thu, Mar 11, 2010 at 11:41 PM, Janet Feldman <kaippg@earthlink.net>wrote:

Dear Grace and All,

Hello and thanks for alerting us to this terrible site...ironic that they call others filthy!

I am going to alert GoDaddy, where I have a website, and also Facebook and other venues about this site. I'm sure they have some policies on the promotion of hate speech and on fomenting of hatred, so I hope they will be able to shut down this one.

Even if not, we can at least remain alert to all forms of violence, hatred, and discrimination with what you have posted, and know what this kind of response leads to...just the very violence and hatred that rocked Kenya in 2008, when a combination of political/economic and social/ethnic factors threatened to tear the country apart.

With immense appreciation for your caring and concern, and blessings to all, Janet

Hi all, The website below is promoting a hate culture at a time when the issue of gays, personal laws in the Bill of rights/constitutional making is very hot. Are we using media to promote bias like we did in 2007 and is there any intervention that the Government or anyone can take? I appreciate that the site is not registered in Kenya but the information is circulating in Kenya....and it could be a forerunner to the kind of e-hate campaigns we could see come another election/referendum.
