On the Internet, capture of Laurent Gbagbo was followed minute by minute, causing both relief and anger among bloggers Ivorian. In countries such as the Internet, the "reconciliation" sought by national Alassane Ouattara is far from assured. THE CLASH OF IMAGES Each week, the blogger Saliou Samb returns on a historical episode in his country.
But when history is written spirit of the speech bows to "the images speak for themselves. On the one hand, the new Ivorian president Alassane Ouattara Drahman, the proud carriage, upright, with an background an aide and flag of his country, the other a Laurent Gbagbo Kudu displaying a desperate grimace.
So spend the greatest glories of the world ... " This video of the ousted president broadcast on all channels was deeply shocked Ivorians. Even Guy Kouassi, yet close to Ouattara, admits "crying at the sight of these images on the Web and TV, saddened by how it treats those that call my president." Gbagbo's supporters, meanwhile, poured their anger on the net, denying once again the "legitimacy of Ouattara who is a real coup".
Yet no trace of triumphalism on the part of followers of Ouattara. Like the deserted streets of Abidjan, where "there are no manifestations of joy, the city is in mourning," Ivorians are opting for a certain restraint, as summarized Alain Mabanckou: "We know that has achieved a Pyrrhic victory.

The image comes from the blog Tanoh Niamke, Ivorian diplomat and writer, though a supporter of the first hour of the intervention of the Licorne force. Little amused by the contortions of France, who denies having participated in the arrest of Laurent Gbagbo, Ivorian bloggers fear a return "to the era of the slave trade." On his site read in Côte d'Ivoire, Claudus hammers relentlessly: "President Laurent Gbagbo was captured, not stopped: it's an act of war by France against the Ivory Coast, not police no justice.
" Items are even tougher on Saoti, a blog written by several journalists. Under the title "Ave Gbagbo! Those who have seen you die salute you" sharp pen Charly Gabriel Mbock, author of Decolonizing France, denounced "the love of France to Africa so red and so bright he is confirmed as a love négrophage .(...)

" Some, more pragmatic, pass over in silence political events. Tirelessly, they continue to inform their readers about the dangers in progress, as the blog of Peter Christopher Gam: "Know that the rebels from tonight go from house to house to search, so if you have an object in relation Gbagbo: hide, burn, turn off newspapers, cloth, t-shirts, pictures, posters, calendars, etc..
