Of many dysfunctional and hypocritical Kenyan institutions, this one was superfluous already in the moment of its creation. *Sigh*

Well, at least some people can eat fat sitting allowances now.

Here is a quotation from an otherwise somewhat bland and shallow net article by Eric Brahm:

“In sum, the general population, as well as human rights advocates, often expect too much from truth commissions. First, they may have an impossible mission. The needs of victims may be incompatible with the needs of society. Second, it is argued they do not go far enough to deal with the past or generate reconciliation. They do not have the power to punish and have no authority to implement reforms. Third, wiping the slate clean benefits those who have committed human rights violations. This damages victims’ self-esteem and denies them justice. Finally, erasing history is difficult.”
