Kenyans Rally

In reaction to the massive violence that erupted after the elections of 2007, it has been discovered that this violence was a result of the actions of Prime Minister Kenyatta and Parliament member Ruto. The violence that they started against the opposition party progressed to nation wide killings and rape and other methods of sustained violence. The purpose of the rally on Monday was for a calling for these men to tried at the Hague in The Netherlands. The International Court will be hearing the arguments for the case in September in order to decide whether or not a trial will happen. This violence left a serious lasting implications in Kenya as many were effected by the utter terror and violence. Surprisingly enough, Mr. Kenyatta is the son of Jomo Kenyatta which is seen as the father of modern day Kenya.
