[WestNileNet] Muzungu Disappearance 1977: A Despicable Scam!?!
Forumists, After the Robert Scanlon story was published online, I called his daughter Cherie Scanlon at her home in UK, to discuss the disappearance of her father, a British-born Ugandan who vanished from Kampala in 1977. I asked her some critical questions crucial to determining the circumstances then and now. I can't discuss our conversation here, but what is clear is that the matter has been twisted into a crime by Amin even when all those involved have not the slightest evidence to suggest that Robert Scanlon is dead or anyone committed a crime. Even the British government itself hasn't the slightest indication that Amin, or anyone for that matter, did anything wrong. Sadly, this issue only gains attention because it has somehow been unfairly pegged on the one person they think they can get away with saying anything about. Just like the British journalists who forged news reports about Amin and his government to UK newspapers while they were actually engaged in debaucherie and lewd behaviour in Kampala, Robert Scanlons disappearance is currently another vicious, ruthless scam that also hurts his own family today. -- Hussein Juruga Lumumba Amin Kampala, Uganda ___ WestNileNet mailing list WestNileNet@kym.net http://orion.kym.net/mailman/listinfo/westnilenet WestNileNet is generously hosted by INFOCOM http://www.infocom.co.ug/ The above comments and data are owned by whoever posted them (including attachments if any).

[WestNileNet] Confession Times: How Briton Faked Stories About Amin!?!
Ian G. Cutler literally invented stories about Amin. My time In Uganda: Over a period of several years, both before and during the regime of Idi Amin, I had some kind of devious business relationship with the government and made several business trips out there. Planning one of those trips, I saw the opportunity to have all my expenses paid for by the News of the World and persuaded Michael Parker (of the Gay YMCA story) and Gerry Brown, to help me get sponsored. We sold the story on a simple brief to “expose the horrors of living under Amin”. We used the airport at Nairobi, Kenya. This involved us in a 300 mile drive. We would often break our journey in a Kenyan town called Kisumu. As soon as we got to Kampala we used to set ourselves up in the only five star hotel that was still open for business. On the first of these trips I took Parker with me. We went direct to the hotel bar, where, over copious amounts of whatever spirits were served in the country, we created a scene of gruesome carnage, As the booze went down, Parker wrote: 'The sky is clouded with vultures as unburied bodies pile up in the streets of the beleaguered capital'. The next morning we decided to go and find a ‘dead body’, and actually went out for the first time into Kampala’s surprisingly civilized streets, where we eventually happened upon a drunk. He was laying prostrate on the pavement so I exposed a whole roll of film - omitting the bit where the drunk suddenly recovered and lurched off to the nearest bar. This was’ the drunk’ referred to in 'Vultures of Uganda' story - supposedly a dying man! Rupert laughed at this picture. Apart from that, we rarely left the confine of the hotel, and only came back to London when our expenses were being questioned. For once the News of the World didn’t believe us. Upon our return we went off on a boozy bout with our old mate Craig McKenzie, to whom we confided all. Naturally we ended up in our favourite brothel, the Cabaret Club. There, presumably in his cups, McKenzie agreed to try and persuade his brother, then riding high as editor of the Sun, to run the story. On Craig’s assurance that the story held up, Kelvin did so and we two conmen walked away with handsome cheques. On my next trip I took Gerry Runcible Brown to do the ‘real’ story. Adjective-laden artistic license, we decided, was just not enough. We would have to find some convincing horror stories. And, of course, so we did. Gerry was a quite remarkable man. For a start, his drinking capacity was such that he completely humbles lightweight dipsomaniacs like Scallywag. He has been known, while ‘on the job’, to consume up to two or even three bottles of scotch a session while concocting his expenses for a seemingly ever-tolerant ‘Screws’ hierarchy. Even more incredible was his capacity to get his end away with whatever p. was available, even while surrounded by the sordid evidence of the empty bottles of his wretched debauchery. But there is something even more unimaginable and inconceivable, even preposterous, about the Runcible Super-loo which very, very nearly defies all rational and sagacious thinking. It is that, despite overwhelming evidence of his life-long depravity, he was actually taken seriously by his peers. Gerry-can has written and published a book called “EXPOSED - Sensational True Story of Fleet Street Reporter” in which he not only pontificates about the glories of exposure journalism (with shining white armour gallivanting valiantly as the Great Crusader against universal sleaze) but tried to set himself up as the authentic mouthpiece of the exposure genre. Indeed, so well-established as a spokesman of “freedom of speech” has he become that he was lauded in the Guardian by the editor-in-chief, Peter Preston no less, for his tenacious belief that if others are at it, it is up to Galahads like himself to tell the world about it. But there was no one to tell the world about Gerald Runcible Brown or about just what he actually got up to when he took his trousers down, until now, So here I am, a veteran snatch-man, ex-con, s... athlete (I have scr.. a thousand women in my sordid life) and self-confessed manipulator of the front page. I am here to re-write the Gerry-can memoirs. Take for example, our different accounts of our trip to Uganda together. I had been there several times before. This particular visit occurred just after Idi Amin had been ousted by the Tanzanian army. According to Gerry's book, ‘Exposed’, Gerry-can, at the time a fearless freelance who wanted to put the world to rights, decided to go Uganda and took along “my photographer”. The fact is that I pay-rolled the whole trip to nearly a thousand pounds. I took him and picked up all the tabs. In fact at the time Gerry had a warrant out for his arrest. He had fled from Florida where he had been working for the notorious National Enquirer. It was, although the book skilfully doesn’t mention it, just a little bit of a hurricane,
[WestNileNet] If Janan Luwum Isn't A Saint, Neither Is Mwalimu Nyerere!
Based on what I have heard, the independent forensic investigation into what caused the death of Janan Luwum was supposed to involve an exhumation of his body so as to be clear about what actually killed him? That would have been followed by a grand reburial at Namirembe Cathedral. The World Council of Churches, the ones conducting the independent probe, was alledgedly prepared to do the forensics and as we all know, their investigation would have led to Sainthood for Janan Luwum. Central to the process of awarding Sainthood is how and why he died. The other obviously bigger part of the WCC probe looks at how Janan Luwum led his entire life while alive. Officially denying Janan Luwum sainthood in the 80's meant that, though he appeared religious, his activities weren't!?! I personally understand the WCC position. I stood in front of the weapons displayed at Namirembe Cathedral grounds next to the blue truck painted with a Pepsi sign. The book Sowing The Mustard Seed expounds on the details of that operation and even gives names of those who were driving the trucks. So before even exhuming the body for investigative forensics and possible reburial at Namirembe Cathedral, the Sainthood process came to a brutal end...possibly forever!?! Sadly, Janan Luwum himeself had crossed the Church's red line. Many people ask me about that event but the above is exactly what I tell them. The only other official investigation on record besides the one conducted independently by international investigators from the Church, is the official Uganda government statement. The rules and regulations for Sainthood are so stringent and sadly, so time consuming that even Pope John Paul II is awaitng his. But the investigation that disqualified Janan Luwum might also be the very one that disqualifies the late Mwalimu Julius Nyerere for whom calls have been made to grant him sainthood as well. Based on records including Sowing The Mustard Seed, Mwalimu Julius Nyerere was the main facilitator of the subversive activities that led to the seized weapons that had themselves led to Janan Luwums disqualification from sainthood. So if Janan Luwum couldn't be a saint, isn't it irrational for Nyerere to be one? Because from the Churches perspective, Janan Luwum literally isn't, wasn't and will never be a Saint. -- Hussein Juruga Lumumba Amin Kampala, Uganda ___ WestNileNet mailing list WestNileNet@kym.net http://orion.kym.net/mailman/listinfo/westnilenet WestNileNet is generously hosted by INFOCOM http://www.infocom.co.ug/ The above comments and data are owned by whoever posted them (including attachments if any).

[WestNileNet] Another Amin Book?: The Guardian Angel
Book Review: While not an apologist for Idi Amin, Arnold Bisase (the author) explains the Ugandan rebels that were at work in Tanzania in the 1970s, vying for power and at the same time engaged in rivalry with each other and using the method of sabotage and assassination of prominent Ugandans so as to try and discredit Idi Amin. The book adds its voice to the growing number of sources who are increasingly questioning the claims that Amin caused any deaths of thousands during his eight-year rule and the view now confirmed that exiled groups in Kenya and Tanzania staged the prominent abductions and did the killings. The author was with the Ugandan exiles. It should be worth reading!
