Default RE: Wagalla victims still waiting for justice

"we pay for putting these people in power!"

Are you saying that Moi's government had a legitimate mandate from Kenyans to govern the nation? How and when was that mandate acquired?

"Do we then surcharge the people that followed the orders?"

Nazi criminals tried at Nuremburg and other war crimes tribunals were also held to account even though they claimed that they "were only following orders." Mans laws and justice are not necessarily compatible, but justice must prevail.
