When nigeria attacks BH is able to flee when chad attacks they rescue 100 kidnaped nigerians.

Maybe nigeria shoud go and train in chad, because letting the insurgets escape your attack means you waisting your own time.

No, dude, you got it all wrong.

Bokos kidnapped Nigerian civilians close to lake Chad border line and immediately used speed boats to carry them across lake water border into Chad. On landing in Chad, they unluckily fell into the hands of well armed and mobile Chadian army special COIN units.

Boko was caught immobile without vehicles, caught by surprise, out-numbered by Chadian soldiers and defeated.

Did your Soweto military academy teach you to study a battle before you comment? No !

Fact remains, poachers cut off Rhino horns inside South Africa, transport them past your SANDF men and helicopters plus rangers on patrol and guard duty, cross border into Zimbabwe and sell your Rhino horns without South Africa sending army, air force, or rangers to stop them.

Point remains Poachers get away, happens all the time

Yep. Difrince is your averge paching party is 3 maybe 4 guys who get in and out. They all so operating in eastern kruger park. There is nothing there no roads no nothing. We all so have under 1000 to patrol the area the size of israle. And we have been catching poachers but it is a hard battel. Rhino horn is worth more than gold so it is not hard for the poaching sydcits to hire more guns.

All so SA started hot puisuit not long ago. And zimbawe is the wrong country.


Any case if SA can get the law preventing legal horn sale passed we can flood the market in china and veitnam. Supply and demand will result in price dropping. Thus makeing poaching less profitbi.

But the key point is size BH run around in big numbers attacking populated areas with vechlies. Poachers are in small numbers, avoid people and move on foot. Witch is the one easyer to find?

Which one is easier? Go ask mighty Israeli military how easy it was to find the real Hamas terrorists in Gaza.

We have 30,000 troops spread over land mass of North East Nigeria bigger than the whole of Great Britain.

We have Boko Haram that spies on any town or any military base dressed as women covered head to toe in Islamic dress called hijab, if you ever seen one hijab full regalia before.

How do you track them? They are civilians in day time and Boko haram at night.

Spread 30,000 men over Britain and ask them to police every street and see the result you get.

I don't care what countries your Kruger park poachers escape to, they keep doing it again and again.

They invade your country from Mozambique and you can do NOTHING about it.

South Africa deployed your 'highly photographed' Special Forces military with helicopters in support, yet animal hunters overrun South Africa, and your Gripen jet nation of submarines has to remove all Rhinos from their habitat because you are defeated by the Poachers.

"We've got one Intelligence Tactical Regiment from Potchefstroom, which specialises in intelligence gathering. Special Forces and 21 Battallion, both in the park and on the borders," says Colonel Bobelo. The ground troops are supported by helicopters for a speedy chase of poachers. "The helicopters contribute a lot in terms of identifying areas where poachers are operating," he adds. Colonel Says that it became increasingly important to rope in the army when syndicates began using helicopters, night vision equipment and high-powered rifles in their expedition. The army is part of the National Joint Operational and Intelligence Structure."

SANDF special forces and 21 Battalion with air force support got defeated in ANC homeland republic...by bush animal hunters

They met all of their objectives and smashed the christ out of Hamas

All known tunnels, 32 in total, have now been destroyed. Following the completion of the mission, all ground troops have been withdrawn from Gaza and redeployed to defensive positions in the vicinity. The IDF has, thus far, struck over 4,700 terror targets in Gaza, including 1,678 rocket-launching facilities, 191 weapons facilities, and 977 command centres, and eliminated over 750 terrorist combatants.
http://theconversation.com/problems-ahead-for-israel-after-pyrrhic-victory-in-gaza-30575

It was a costly victory, but it was a VICTORY - something Nigeria has yet to achieve

We have not seen Nigerian army stop k.illing Bokos 24/7

We have also seen BH capture Nigerian cities, Nigerian troops run away and mutiny and Nigeria now tops the world terrorism list.

By comparison, Isreal lost only 4 civilians during the campaign.

Nigeria is being defeated by BH as we speak.
