Don't Start Something You Can't Finish

[Johnny B]

Okey, Let us start from day 1

 

It is October 2011 , Al-qaida/Al_shabab control 100% of south Somalia .

Now, it 4th March 2012 controlls less than 50% of south Somalia.

 

It is 7 more months to October 2012 when the Kenyan troops will head home .

 

Now , going by the speed of the gains of the brave kenyan army against the Al-qaida/al-shabab terrorists , they're home early June, or july at the latest.

 

fact: Before October 2011, Shabab conducted operations inside Kenya.

fact: Before october 2011, , unlike today, Kenyan borders and national security were under constant threat.

 

Reminder : I am not here arguing Al-qaida/Al-shabab are totally gone , that is only a matter of a month or there.

 

:cool:

Johnny...If I could admit that AS has been weakened and made many plunders, surely you can admit Kenyans are ineffective and hardly make dent in the Southern front. They even suck at propaganda. If we were to believe them, Bobville aka Kismayo should have been in their hands by now.

Che, you're operating under the assumption that the Kenyans wanted to capture Kismaayo and other majort towns in the Jubbooyinka but are thwarted by the valiant rear guard heroics by the Asiatic wannabe baboons Alshabaab. There is no reason to believe Kenyans wanted to capture Kismaayo at all. In fact, no one can say for sure the Kenyan military strategy in Jubooyinka incursions other than to fight Alshabaab. I'm not sure even the Kenyans know what they wanna to do.

 

But make no mistake. Such is the firepower at the disposal of Kenyan arm that if they so chose to capture Kismaayo, they can do so in the blink of an eye and faster than Alshabaab could Allahu Akbar in bee gees voice. For example, the Kenyan army in the Jubbooyinka are carrying true combined arms operations involving ground, air, naval and intelligence forces. Very few African armies have such capabilities let alone East African armies. Compare that to AMISOM or Ethiopia neither of which has any significant air support. And yet AMISOM and Ethiopia seem to be steamrolling over Alshabaab at every encounter. So, clearly Kenya can defeat Alshabaab comprehensively provided there is clear military objectives and political will.

"Kenya intends to push its troops to Somalia's insurgent stronghold of Kismayo and will stay until there are no Islamist insurgents left, a Kenyan military spokesman said Thursday, as the militants were pushed back on two fronts by pro-Somali government forces supported by foreign troops."

In the days following their invasion,they blamed the rain for stopping their advance.The rain came and went but no progress in the battle field nearly six months later.

This proved the spur for Kenya to send its troops across the border to prevent, military officials say, the establishment of a Shabaab stronghold close to the country.

 

 

Major General Fred Mugisha, the Amisom force commander, told the Sunday Nation in Mogadishu that the entry of Kenya meant that the Shabaab were subjected to attacks from “force multipliers” such as helicopters and navy war ships, which they had not suffered before.

 

This triggered defections, he says, and sent many foreign fighters off to the south of Yemen, which is now seen as a safe haven for al Qaeda militants because it is largely free of government control.

 

“As a result of the entry of Kenya into the theatre,” said Uganda’s Foreign Affairs minister Henry Oryem Okello, “the Shabaab have had to break up their leadership and command structure. They have been scattered across the various fronts including the western one with Ethiopia. That has eased the pressure in Mogadishu.”

Maybe they are for the next weather forecast.

Too many delusional people. I have said it before and I will say it again, Alshabab can not be defeated, because even if they lose their stronghold's they will revert to guerilla tactics, the best solution is negotiation.

[Abdul]

Negotiation is the best solution but not sure if AS are interested.
