Top ten predicted responses to this incident:

10. The CIA did it to rally Third World support for imperialist designs.

9. This attack is not nearly as bad as what the CIA did to Cuba.

8. The solution to this problem is to plant trees on the West Bank.

7. Nothing the U.S./EU do in response to this can be good, and nothing can be done about their response.

6. The Kenyan regime commits horrible crimes against its own people and has no moral standing to prosecute the perpetrators.

5. This will be bad for civil liberties in Kenya.

4. The real target here is the burgeoning Kenyan peanut trust.

3. Once the perpetrators are identified, they should be arrested by Ben and Jerry.

2. The Kenyan regime is complicit in this act because it is a stinky regime.

1. If you think this is important, you have surrendered to Imperialism.
