Wasaliti Wamulikwe

Traitors are people who draw damning conclusions about our armed forces based on scant, unconfirmed accounts. They also think that a battle-theater is a reality show and demand blow-by-blow accounts of the action, which they call ‘transparency’.

Each time following a skirmish, some demand instant withdrawal of our servicemen. JaKuon is their dim beacon of hopelessness.

A random selection follows:

kdf walichapwa fair and square no need sugar coating things and hiding the truth from the public Families of the deceased deserve closure

@KinduKiega:

In every war there has to be casualty(ies) but why are our KDF overrun like this and end up losing so many of them.Do they get trained enough for such combats.I thought EL Adde was the last…RIP to the fallen one if the news is actually real

@dundley:

I always feel that Kdf should be dealing with our pokot bandits and not the bloody Somalis… But nani atauza makaa… If they can’t contain the ill equipped and poorly trained Al kebab warudishe nyumbani

@phantom:

We need to make Somalia a political issue in the August election. We are loosing so much.
For WHAT?
There will be videos, my brothers. Horrible, terrible videos. Someone will see a brother die on camera. Another will see their cousin breathe their last to the tune of ominous al kebab recitations . Many will attend a burial for a village mate, or classmate killed killed in a faraway godforsaken land.

Kwa NINi?

@Flx:

when Ban Ki Moon demoted one general kariuki , Uhuru was gun blazing in his speech then followed it up with withdrawing soldiers from south Sudan… but when our boys are DYING in Somalia he goes blind and dumb

Etc, etc…

Typically, these are low-level Ktalk members who hardly participate, but creep out of the woodwork whenever they think that something disastrous has happened in Kenya.

This has nothing to do with raila or uhunye revealing the number of casualties is not unpatriotic, it seems you are comfortable with our soldiers dying as long as the numbers are not revealed

And oh yeah, Uhuru is the C-I-C and has charged CS Rachel Omamo with the official task of condoling our servicemen and communicating with the public. JaKuon should wait for whatever information our SECURITY forces decide to share, not go scraping the internet for terrorist propaganda and sending communiques to the media based on their gory fantasies.

Why are you quoting me,i may have said something about KDF but not the above,all in all the info we get about the fight there is scanty,till you meet a soldier who is from the battlefield that is when you know there is more than what we are let to know

KDF is a trained force,it shouldn’t be surprised by forces such as alshabab…Why don’t the Alshabab insurgents play around with Ethiopian army…

Then one conveniently failed to mention all demoted generals by one ki moon to make it a tribal issue

Jubilee spinning incompetence into anti-Raila votes. How about you talk about this commander-in-chief? Seems even our military disasters are still good for Jubilee.

Ndugu @KinduKiega, I would never invent a citation and attribute it to you. Here is where I found it:

Alshabaab hits kdf again - News & Politics - Kenya Talk

I do not deny that information over ongoing campaigns and battles can be scant. That is the way it is supposed to be. The lack of information is no justification for adopting Al Shabaab accounts or inflating casualty figures to demonstrate your concern. The Standard’s article was the worst example of that, and it was clearly politically motivated.

Stick to point at hand. Ethiopians were there, got beaten,withdrew their forces then came back later then they suffered a huge casualties.

Do you know the differences between media freedoms in dictatorship Ethiopia and Kenya’s relatively open climate for the press?

The absence of independent media in Addis or a need for the government there to explain anything does not mean that they do not encounter resistance in the Somali campaigns.

I can see @Nattydread amekujibu. But also ask yourself, why with so much training and experience the IDF still suffers casualties? is it because they went properly trained? is it that they haven’t learned from previous attacks? Even the best Army does suffer a considetable amount in casualties…

This is just pr most families of the soldiers who died in El adde never got any official briefing from the government and they will try to do the same again this time

At least the don’t suffer such high casualties that they are embarrassed to reveal it.
