SPECIAL OPERATIONS GROUP (SOG) of the Administration police - Under the operational command of Kenya's National Intelligence Service (NIS), last week gave media access to their activities.
SOG can be credited for reducing cross-border alshabaab activities along the Kenya-Somalia border.

History bidexiii, History!!!

Present day Israel, was originally Palestine under British colonial administration. Due to the fact that they were targeted in WW2, Jewish refugees or let me put in the term they were historically referred to, “illegal migrants” in search of a holy land and a place to call home, found their way to Palestine. Evidence Below 👇

Now there is no way Palestine wasn’t populated even before British colonization. There were certainly local Arabs who lived there when Palestine was still a part of the Ottoman Empire. These local Arabs welcomed the Israelis and co-habited with them. A mistake they didn’t know will bite them hard in the future. Fast forward to 1948. Somehow, some way, Palestine becomes Israel and claims to have gained independence after ethnically cleansing and forcefully displacing the local Arabs. Is there even any evidence of that. I mean in the case of Nigeria and South Africa, there are evidences and legacies that proves both countries right to be former British colonies. Where did Israel appear from…?? When and How did the British colonize them and later lead to them gaining independence….??
Crazy and noteworthy point is that the superpowers of then and UN heads wanted to divide Palestine between the local Arabs and the Jews and put Jerusalem under international trusteeship. Present day 2025, guess who has ursuped 90% of Palestine including Jerusalem and intends to expand into Lebanon, Syria and some other Middle East countries in the pursuit of a Greater Israel…??

1948 till date, 77 years of ethnically cleansing and forcefully displacing Palestinians, not to mention the constant terrorizing of nearby Middle Eastern states like Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and even faraway Iran, all but a few entities remain silent to avoid “western sanctions”. However when Palestinians decided to stand up for themselves, it’s a problem…?? The West Bank government of Palestinians that is approved by Israel, do you know why Palestinians don’t regard them…?? It’s because they work together with Israeli forces to oppress them that is why Palestinians in Gaza and West Bank rather follow the leadership of Hamas.

P.S : Hamas is a political party not an armed force. The military arm of Hamas responsible for operation Al Aqsa flood on October 7 is the Qassam Brigades.
I tend not to follow this topic cause I could care less but haven't this people been fighting long before Britain was an empire, heck, long before Christianity was a popular religion?


Kingdom of Judea: Origin
Between roughly 1050 BC and 930 BC, the Israelites lived in a state called the United Monarchy, a kingdom under the reigns of the prominent Israeli kings Saul, David, and Solomon. This was a golden age in Israeli history when the power and wealth of the Israeli kingdom reached its peak.
After the death of King Solomon around 926 BCE, tensions flared between the ten tribes of the north and the southern tribes in Jerusalem. Solomon's successor, Rehoboam, ignored economic complaints from the northern tribes, and the kingdom split apart. The northern tribes formed the Kingdom of Israel, which lasted until being defeated by the Assyrian Empire in 722 BCE. The southern tribes became the Kingdom of Judea.

I did not presume anything, I was replying to GreenandGold who said Nigeria doesn't buy new cars because they don't have the money. Hence why I stated, if they can't buy new cars then SA should sell them 2nd hand and the continent can reduce over reliance on outside trade. Nigeria could in return sale oil to SA.

GreenandGold:
You don't buy new cars, you don't have the money.

Nigeria 🇳🇬 bought about only 13 000 new cars in 2023
South Africa 🇿🇦 bought about 532 000 new cars in the same year.
If they can afford to buy used, they can afford to buy new ones if we worked out better tariff regimes - maybe through AFCTA,

Also, If SA is buying such a huge number of new vehicles, where do they go once they are used for a few years, why not encourage owners to trade them in after a few years or milage to get newer vehicles, then you resell the used cars in African markets just like what Japan does?

It's totally possible to have intra-africa trade and become self reliant, the only people stopping us is ourselves. We have put so many mental blocks that we don't believe anything is possible.

Kenya RRU in recent training exercise.

Foreign AffairsRe: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Fidha254(m): 2:00am On Mar 30, 2025
Kenya Airforce Rapid Response Unit

Trained at the Kenya Army special forces training school - The unit was formed from experience in Somalia where a pilot ejected from his fighter jet behind enemy lines. The airforce formed it's own rescue unit.

RRU is based at Wajir airbase


This is a video of a live demonstration with commentary in Swahili, but I believe one can still understand what's going on.
It's a pilot rescue operation where the rescue team arrives first, and once the pilot is recovered, a medical team is inserted.

Aircrafts used
Fenec helicopter - a light attack helicopter that provides air support.
PUMA helicopter for inserting and extracting the medical team and the pilot.
A skytruck light transport plane that drops in supplies for the team on the ground.

The demonstration ends at min 13

What in the world does Kosovo have to offer that man? What are you worried about Serbia or its big brother Russia coming after you? Think he’s cozying up to close to the West?

Honestly nobody cares enough to do anything to you or anyone down here over this crap.
It's not about what anyone would do to us as a consequence. It's about meddling in affairs we have no business in.

Our president has a bottomless appetite for making side deals, I won't be surprised if few months from now I hear Kenya is exporting chickens to Kosovo, which Ruto is one of the biggest poultry farmers in the country so it benefits him directly. (this is just an example)


And I don't know what they have to offer but they have been cozy relationship between president of Kosovo and Ruto. Maybe they have thing for each other, I don't know.

Being proclaimed a "non-NATO ally" comes with conditions.
There is literally no strategic geopolitical significance in Kenya recognizing Kosovo. And If that was the case, Ruto wouldn't be backing RSF in Sudan against the wishes of the west. This is just a guy lining his pockets.

just like the Sudanese RSF situation there must be some deals he made for himself, he's using the country as a personal bargaining chip,
Bottomless greed!

Yeap because human senses and mindset is channelled to believe that they must think in such a way or act in such a way. Alot of shit happens behind scenes and they come to the press as if everything is okay. President Trumph as no time to fake things and make you feel happy even in the face of a press conference. Billions and lives are been wasted for this war for someone's ego.

Zelesnsky is proud, arrogant, egoistic and unappreciative dictator, His actions and decisions as lead to millions of lives lost and still counting, billions of dollars lost and embezzled by him and is corrupt administration.

Talking about the fact that you say; "you can't believe the US is now a Strongman's country". This is a long known fact and it amuses me you're just realizing that now, Let me add to the list which is China and Russia also. The rest are just pussy.

I quite agree with you that the war might sorawn up in the nearest future, if it happens it will be bad for every country involved but it will brme far worst for Ukraine.
So you do agree it's a sh!t show then.

How is this a shit show ?
It's a shit show cause I have never seen two presidents argue about a war in a press conference cheesy Normally these things happen behind the scenes and they get to a consensus before they come to the joint press conference.

From this conversation I can see Zelensky doesn't trust any deal they make with Russia and Russia also seems to jus be playing to Donald's ego, therefore I suspect that this war will return in the future in some form the moment Donald is no longer the president. I cannot believe that the US has now become a strongman country cheesy instead of it's institutions working and transcending presidential terms, they depend on who is the current president like some third world country.
