Titolo: Terrorismo e campi profughi

Sul giornale kenyota "The East African" si legge oggi un interessante
commento (ne riporto una parte) in merito agli attentati di ieri.
Utile notare come la presunta "guerra mondiale" del terrorismo abbia
sempre "cause", contesti e "radici" locali che spingono ormai molti
analisti a considerare (contraddittoriamente: un copycat jihad - per
parafrasare Man -?) il fenomeno come una "rete lasca". Dietro
l'apparente (per i fanatici bushiani) "uniformità" si stende una folla
di difformi finalità, solo "simbolicamente" coassiali al
"fondamentalismo" e al nodo palestinese. Come riporta (ancora) Igor
Man sulla "Stampa" di oggi, la stessa "Jane's Intelligence Review"
sostiene che tale terrorismo potrà avere qualche "picco" nei prossimi
due anni, ma è destinato allo scacco militare, stante la sua
proteiformità e le sue scarse possibilità operative (fatto NON
contraddetto dall'11-9). Altra cosa è l'USO del terrore (delle molte
FORME di terrorismo: economico, mediatico, finanziario ecc.) da parte
di soggetti politico-militari "forti" (USA, Russia e Cina, in primis:
si pensi alle tesi sostenute nello splendido - se posso giudicare da
un estratto - libro di Qiao Liang e Wang Xiangsui, "Guerra senza
limiti"). QUESTO è preoccupante: gli "scontri di civiltà" di cui si
delira nei salotti televisivi e fra le casalinghe di Manhattan sono
ALTRO: *lenti*, plurisecolari, "geologici". Chi li riduce alla guerra
è semplicemente affetto da isteria. Shalom.

Refugees: EA Could Become
a 'Terror Centre' Soon
By DAVID KAIZA
[...]
At a workshop held in Entebbe last week, lawyers pointed out that the
failure by governments to put more funds into the screening of
non-combatant from combatant asylum seekers was leading to terror
cells developing in the region.
A group called Al-Itihaad is said to be recruiting and training
fundamentalist Muslims in parts of Kenya. Interviews conducted in
camps among Somali refugees in Kenya raised the possibility that the
Al-Itihaad fighters were recruiting and training at the Dadaab camp.
Researchers say that fundamentalists take advantage of the hands-off
approach of the governments of Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania toward
refugees. This, they warned, could make the region, which experienced
terrorist attacks in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam in August 1998, even
more vulnerable.
"Located strategically in a volatile and violent Greater Horn of
Africa that is characterised by weak and collapsing states, East
Africa is poised to become a key anchor in the anti-terrorist
campaign," said Monica Kathina Juma, a researcher on refugee affairs
in Kenya working for the Centre for Refugee Studies.
The workshop was organised by the New York-based Lawyers Committee for
Human Rights and was sponsored by the Stanley Foundation under the
theme, "Refugee Protection in Africa." It drew participants from
Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia, Ivory Coast, Ethiopia, the United
States and the United Nations High Commission for Refugees.
To avert a crisis, the workshop recommended that East Africa adopt,
among others, measures taken by West African states, which do not keep
refugees confined to remote camps but allow them to integrate into
society and seek gainful employment.

Already, Western warships are patrolling the Horn of Africa in the
hunt for fighters of the Al Qaeda network blamed for the September 11
attacks on New York and Washington. Somalia has also been a target
hunting for terrorists - the Al Barrakat money transfer system
suffered closure following suspicion that it was being used as a
conduit for terror funds.
By keeping them in remote camps where security cannot be guaranteed,
Uganda's controversial camps are dangerous places for refugees, some
of whom escape to urban centres. The camps are also located in places
close to rebel activity in western and northern Uganda.
