Yet Turkish airforce reacted to Russian intrusion in minutes.

I guess they don't have chain of command over there.

What Kenya needs to do is annex territory, create a buffer zone and do extreme pacification that even a squirrel will not raise it's head above ground.

Before the Amisom mission, we tried this strategy through proxy militias and it backfired spectacularly.

The only way Somalia will know peace is by involving the people and disarming the war lords.

Last year Kenya lost 141 soldiers in Elade, this year again we are not even sure the number.

All the goverment does is PR, and deny deny.

CS omamo just goes to the families to weep,a few hugs then forget. Isnt it sad that that's the only reaction Kenya does?

No retaliation, no decisions,nothing!

A UN report detailed how Kenyan soldiers in somalia are busy engaged to other activaties, of money making, Amison allowances ,charcoal dealingetc.

It's the high time the troops leave Somalia.So much pain to their families.

Build the WALL.

I have never understood people who lament that we are losing a lot of soldiers in Somalia and that they should pull out and guards our boarders.It is not possible to guard our porous boarders. It is the best decision to have our soldiers there and keep those terrorists in check. If they are left, they will bring the war to our doorstep. These terrorists are very evil people. Given the chance (by withdrawing our soldiers), they will attack us in our shopping malls, they will attack our children in schools, they will attack us on our cities streets and our homes. Since, if they are left alone, they will breed and acquire more and sophisticated weapons.
There is NOTHING like: IF WE LEAVE THEM ALONE, THEY WILL LEAVE US ALONE.
