Feeble-minded Leadership
Kenya is a nation where Islamists kill its civilians & security personnel, while the government (GoK) seeks solution from Islamists
In 2006, somali terrorist group, Union of Islamic Courts (UIC), defeated CIA-backed secular warlords & established a SHARIA Kirtarchy in Mogadishu. Ethiopia sought to contain this Islamist threat, but Kenya refused to SUPPORT Zenawi's initiative
Ogaden in GoK - who were more loyal to their clan - convinced GoK to create Jubaland to be RULED by an Ogaden Somali from #Ethiopia.
Ahmed Madobe was almost KILLED by Ethiopian ANTI-TERRORIST FORCES in 2006.
GoK choosing of Ahmed Madobe, who had fought Ethiopian soldiers in Ethiopia, expectedly angered Ethiopians.
- Why do Ogadens in Kenya push for an ONLF-linked Ogaden from Ethiopia to RULE over #Jubaland in Somalia?
- Can Ogadens in GoK use KDF bodies & blood as DISPOSABLE human fodder for OCCUPYING JUBALAND?
Foolishly, GoK underrated AMISOM but AMISOM achieved its core mandate of preventing #AlShabaab from overthrowing TFG.
AMISOM tried to DENY KDF the port town of Kismayo by deploying Sierra Leone troops
Also, #AlShabaab attacks were on the rise in Kenya, with the most notable attack being the Westgate Mall attack in September 2013.
GoK answer were beyond stupid!!!
RESULT: Ogaden were promoted to top security positions including permanent Secretary for defense, head of military intelligence & head of NEP. Now, Somalis could use STATE RESOURCES to PROTECT their smuggling network from Kismayo.
In Somalia, KDF continues to suffer attacks & casualties.
In Kenya, #AlShabaab succeeded in SCARING Christians out of NEP & creating CRISIS OF CONFIDENCE in GoK's abilities.
