power structures since ever! Furthermore, they even labeled him as the first african political trouble maker to bring down in french WEST AFRICA, by any means possible! But basically "Laurent Gbagbo" is among the new scholar african leadership in post african independence, who ruled the "Ivory COAST" after democratic elections in 2000, when challenging a so called neo colonial system designed! TO some extent the aim which stirred that left-wing historian was to emancipate the "Ivory COAST" from the chains of french neo colonialism! That's to say, "Laurent GBAGBO's trial on ( June 16th) in the Netherlands seems to be a political confrontation and gap grounded in the shortcomings of neo colonialism in post-independence Africa! In the same trend, he has got a heavy political legacy of former proud and nationalist leaders such as:"Osagefo Kwame N'kruma"(1956-1966), "Patrice EMERY LUMUBA"(1960-1961)...("POLITICAL FEEDBACK FACTS"):Ivorian left-wing leader "Laurent Gbagbo"(from the popular front-fpi) led the "Ivory COAST" from 2000 to April 2011 after democratic elections versus general "GUEI ROBERT". Due to massive frauds and conspicuous irregularities during former democratic elections(2010), the incumbent leader refused to stepdown, and has vied his challenger "ALLASSANE OUATTARA" for control over the ivorian state for almost four months! That so called turmoil reached its pinacle through permanent military fierce confrontation in the economic capital city "Abidjan"! Finally, the international community made his political choice by backing "ALLASSANE OUATTARA" up! Among them, were president "OBAMA", the UN forces and former french president "Sarkozy" closely with "la force licorne" (french paratroops who worked out through permanent air force attacks, that turned deadly, as far ivorian civilians are concerned in "Abidjan": As a result, "LAURENT gbagbo" and his wife captured, humiliated, and being taken away under house arrest from place to place: first and foremost, at golf hotel in "ABIDJAN", then taken away in the north of the "IVORY Coast"(in the city of KORHOGO) in odious conditions. Definitely, the african political history will record one day the fact that "Laurent Gbagbo's trial remains explicitly a political trial grounded in the shortcomings of neo colonialism in an international system designed. But, let's third world states stand together, just to look to the light of a true international justice on the 16th of JUNE in the Netherlands. In another words: Can true international justice come to all mankind in an international system designed nowadays? That is the current issue to answer ON THE 16TH OF june in the international court (la Haye-Netherlands...Wait and see!
