Msauza:

Agaugust, I wonder if you had ever studied communications or public relations. Spokepersons or so to say spin doctors whenever they give any information to the media they wouldn't give information about operations of another organisations which they are not contracted to because they might lose their jobs. Those special forces carried outr operations under the UN umbrela, hence it is UN spokesperson who has to respond anything that concerns the operations of the UN. I thought you were much wiser.

nigerian military is more secretive than south african military, we told you many times, but here you say no.

so how about the nigerian made missile test firing at Epe base in lagos which was mentioned my nigerian minister of defense and posted on beegeagle, but you south africans say it is 'unreliable' information and you will not believe it grin

time now for you to be judged the same way you judge others grin

your own country's south african army Lt.General says NO sniper of the SANDF killed even a bush rat in congo DRC....FACT !!!

The part in bold comes from a South African source, seeing as the media conference was in South Africa.

You should deem it unreliable too. grin

As you spin, we point out the rest of the quote which you've ignored.

Everything you know about our general comes from South African media. You can't use South African media to discredit "unrealisable" South African media. grin

[size=16pt]All UN countries In Congo DRC Involved In Combat....

Indian authorities have asked its peacekeeping troops in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) to be extra vigilant for retaliatory attacks by the deadly Congolese rebel group, M23, in the coming days.

A new UN practice of mixing fighting troops along with peacekeepers may be placing Indian soldiers in Congo in danger.

The whole world is fighting M23 Rebels....armies and air forces from Africa, Asia, and Europe now mixed together in action.

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by NaijaPikinGidi: 3:30pm On Aug 31, 2013
Reality is fast dawning on these flippant South Africans! shocked shocked SANDF are too anxious for glory hence they are scrambling about for every possible story to project power and usurp leadership of ongoing UN efforts in the DRC. Claiming fraudulent sniper kills, rushing to Wiki to make fraudulent claims, disowning the fraudulent claims and then retracing their steps due to the weak level of credibility they had brought on themselves is clear evidence of desperation!

Rather than fight as a unit, SANDF is trying too hard to project themselves separate from the rest of the UN member forces in DRC. I wish they'd realize that it takes patience and years of real battle experience to be entrusted with war command roles! We say no to SANDF's self serving propaganda! And we say yes to SANDF focusing on the frontline battles! cool cool cool

Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by CraigB: 3:38pm On Aug 31, 2013
Isn't it amazing how quickly the argument changed from "South Africa not going into bush" to "South Africa wants to claim glory".

No prizes for guessing what would've been argued had FARDC been crushed.

Let's see what will be argued when the fighting resumes, as it will. Possibly with Rwanda openly involved this time.

Desperate valley. The Naai-gerian army is praying for an American miracle against Boko. No real action for them.

Let's get this straight SA is on the west flank and tanziana on the east flank. A SANDF solder was wounded by gunfire so we know they on the front line and in combat.

UN wants the stronger and more experienced Tanzanian army to be in the frontline battles, thus throwing South African army backwards to watch and learn combat from their new Tanzanian military masters.



"A U.N. source said the South African government is not reluctant to combat the M23 rebels, but its forces were not needed in the latest engagement, which required only the use of the Tanzanian field artillery unit.

The intervention brigade commander used to be Tanzania's highest ranking artillery commander."
