in any war you dont fight without first knowing your enemy..Alshabab is an amorphous group that is hard to know its leadership structure so to fight such a group in a conventional way is to engage in a loosing battle.
I like the way KDF is carrying off the offensive reducing civilian casualties by ensuring you use targeted attacks and at the same time bonding with residents of towns already captured to win the hearts of the locals.
Any war is costly but this is a necessary war the Alshabab had become a threat to our sovereignty and if they were to be left to grow further we would have had Boko haram kind of a militia right here in Majengo.
KDF siege will continue stifling Alshabab sources of funds and without money or financiers you will be fighting a loosing war.
Anyone who views Osama,gadaffi,sadam as saints even after killing thousands of innocent pple is an enemy of peace and KDF is justified to pursue this lawless Thugs.
