Kenya is aflame after a presidential election on December 27 widely believed to have been rigged to secure the re-election of Mwai Kibaki. Kibaki’s opponents took to the streets, the government issued shoot-to-kill orders, and hundreds have died at the hands of the police as well as from gang rampages and inter-ethnic violence.
肯尼亚在去年12月27日的总统大选之后群情激愤。民间广泛认为此次大选为了确保Mwai Kibaki的连任而存在舞弊行为。Kibaki的反对者们走上街头，而政府也颁布了“格杀勿论”的命令。数百人丧生于警察之手、帮派骚乱或种族间暴力。美国引领着国际外交界对此的回应，但其方式却存在严重问题。
