Title: Kenya-Somali war
Post by: RV Pundit on December 15, 2020, 04:12:09 PM
Not sure what beef is all about.
If it's Kismayo - I thought kenya was preparing to get out.

Kenya should worry of getting sucked into somali endless wars/

Somalia is another sad place that should break up and AU should help make it official, especially for halfway functioning areas like Somaliland.

I also do not get it. What does Kenya benefit from in showing Somalia the middle finger? We cannot help them solve their internal issues and best we keep out and keep a good relationship with both sides.

KDF mainly populated by career soldiers cant be trusted in any confrontation, I have seen KDF capabilities in terms of individual soldier skill and honestly we fall very short, yeah we have the equipments better than Somalia but Saudi Arabia with more sophisticated weapons and endless resources is being cornered and hammered by Houthis with just Aks and a few terror drones.

It's not a middle finger.  Kenya needs a weak Somalia because they are a problem either way.  A strong Somalia, will come for NFD; they are irredeemable irredentists.  During Siad Barre's time, they were broke as hell, but arming up as if they are going to fight Israel.  Presently, they are barely able to administer anything outside the presidential villa in Mogadishu but they are claiming Kenyan ocean waters.
