Do they really? I must admmit I find it hard to correct a guy as well. But you know what op.I think what 'most'people do is 'attack' in a nasty indirect way.
I think they hate the way its put across because men are just men.
I don't know but I always like starting with 'what if you do this and that , you know put it in a suggestion form or as an option rather than 'If you don't we shall, dire consequences.
well tht's just me.

Beauty,Intelligence,ugly,dumb, all dont matter to me if the carrier lacks a golden heart.( caring,humble,kind,generous and merciful)
so what I see in the pic are just but shells.

But to answer to thread I would prefer ugly and intelligent for one reason. The words that come out of your mouth are like seeds that grow if properly nurtured.
An intelligent person will spew wise words to last a lifetime.When you are smart and genious,looks fade and what you do stands out and speaks for you.

Beauty on the other hand will open doors yes but the dumb words you speak will cause the same doors to close on you again. Dumb words don't last,grow or impact.
They evaporate as soon as they are out of your mouth.

So yeah ugly and intelligent any day.
RomanceRe: Asking Your Boyfriend For Money by pendo89(f): 9:51pm On Oct 17, 2011
kistehsia:
In all reality, unless you r sharing living expenses and are living together you should not be asking/expecting money from your BF, Perhaps a job or second job could help with that little extra money you need, or you have family and friends who could help out if you are in NEED of something you can't afford. Most family/friends are happy to help when a loved one is in need, I just think you should look to them before your BF, if your BF and yourself share living quarters and are that committed in the relationship then that would/will be a different case. Just my opinion, Takes a lot of stress out of the relationship if you both keep your finances out of the relationship till there is a true commitment.

KENYAN ARMY FOR MOTHER OF ALL BATTLES.

Kenyan forces are likely to see action in a major battle in the Somali town of Afmadow, 620 kilometres south of Mogadishu, in the coming days.

Somali Transitional Federal Government (TFG) soldiers, together with allied combatants from Ras Kamboni Brigade and units of the Kenyan military, were on Monday said to be headed there.
“The Kenyan soldiers are heavily armed and they have started digging trenches near Qoqani,” another witness, Mr Abdulahi Sayid Adam, said.

Withdraw troops

Al Shabaab spokesman Sheikh Ali Mohamud Rage threatened to launch terror attacks in Kenyan cities if Nairobi does not withdraw its troops.

“Kenya has peace, its cities have tall buildings and business is booming there, while Somalia is in chaos. If your government ignores our calls to stop its aggression on Somali soil, we will strike at the heart of your interests,” he said in an address intended for the Kenyan population.

Under growing pressure

Kenya has been under growing pressure to take action and attempt to restore confidence that it could safely host tourists and one of the world’s largest aid communities.


Ok aluta continua.

It seems as though Africa is at war. Its militias and rebels and transitional forces and deaths.

The most interesting part is that Somali men and women in Kenya support the army in this because they have been made refugees in a neighbouring country for years.
The kids born in camps know no country.Their country is the camp.Pathetic.

^^ The media is awash with rumours and that is what the they made us believe at first.

"It crashed while taking off and caught fire, all the five soldiers on board died. It was not brought down," Military Operations Information Officer Major Emmanuel Chirchir said.

He said the crash occurred near Liboi during lift-off on Sunday evening. Liboi is in Kenya.

And no Kenya is not even doing it alone.

Foreign troops are already on the ground in Somalia,(US troops are providing satellite images of the group's exact locations to the Kenyan army as well as logistical support) Other forces are mainly from Uganda and Burundi, under the African Union.

The [b]Federal Transitional Government, [/b]the weak authority in Somalia backed by the international community, also has troops trained in Kenya and Uganda and paid for by western donors.

Kenyan soldiers over the weekend crossed into Somalia and bombarded an Al Shabaab stronghold in Qoqani in lower Juba land which is about 100 kilometers from the Kenya Somali border.
The attack which also involved soldiers of the Transitional Federal government saw Kenyan choppers shell the Al Shabab base at Qoqani. The TFG military officer at Qoqani Hassan Bule said the Al Shabab were driven out and were now headed towards Afmadow.Government spokesman confirmed the the cross-over which other sources say was aided by US forces.

Sources within the army, said Kenya army officers were now overseeing security operations between 50 and 60 kilometers inside Somalia, along the border with Kenya as a way of combating Al- Shabaab and its operations.

Kenya is providing all material support to Somali military officers trained in Kenya and who have been deployed to the front-line and propped from behind by the Kenya army to keep away Al Shabaab fighters. "We have to provide them with everything from uniform to boots to ammunition. Even the food they eat is ours. If we don't do that, they will collapse within a day," the military source said. The offensive launched over the weekend is expected to continue until a peaceful buffer zone is established between Kenya and its northern neighbour.

Sources high in government confirmed that administrators had already been trained to take over the towns and areas liberated from the Al Shabaab militia. The leaders are being trained in Nairobi before they are deployed to these regions. The administrators are in close contact with the country's security agencies such as the NSIS which also provides the administrators with logistical and equipment support. "The international community cannot be relied upon to take the lead because many countries of the West have little interest in Somalia or do not put their money where their mouth is. We have to do this to protect our national security,"

The move follows last week's kidnapping of two Spanish aid workers who were grabbed from the Dadaab refugee camp by Al-Shabaab militias and taken into lawless Somalia. The two women were working as logisticians for the aid agency Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF, Doctors Without Borders).


These elshababs are making the whole region unstable.They have forced their country men,women and children into Kenyan camps and started recruiting young kenyan muslim youths into the group,giving them loads of pirate cash in return.
And just so u know they stand to suffer more. They have invested all their piracy money in Kenya and run mega businesses in the country.
If not checked they can take over a nation because they receive funding from Al queda  in addition to their pirate activities messing up Kenya's tourism Industry in the process.

http://www.nation.co.ke/News/Kenyan+forces+go+after+raiders+inside+Somalia+/-/1056/1256606/-/2c40b7/-/index.html

Kenyan forces were on Sunday operating deep inside Somalia with orders to make sure there are no al Shabaab extremists within 100 kilometres of the border.
Units from the Kenya Army are understood to have crossed into Somalia at Liboi and Mandera with orders to fight their way into the lawless country and create a buffer zone to ensure that insurgents do not launch attacks against Kenya.

Kenya Air Force and the Navy will be sent out as the need arises, security sources told the Nation.

Soldiers actually crossed into Somalia days before the announcement by Internal Security Minister George Saitoti and Defence Minister Yusuf Haji. (READ: Kenya declares war on Al Shabaab)

Internal Security permanent secretary Francis Kimemia said security forces had drawn up strategies to defeat al Shabaab in their own land.

“How it will be done, the number of troops involved and where they will strike remains a preserve of the military. We can’t give information that would be useful to the enemy,” he said.

Witnesses have reported military trucks at border points and military choppers in the air. Foreign troops are already on the ground in Somalia, mainly from Uganda and Burundi, under the African Union.

The Federal Transitional Government, the weak authority in Somalia backed by the international community, also has troops trained in Kenya and Uganda and paid for by western donors.

    * We don’t admit terror agents, says UN

“Now we can’t wait for the TFG or Amisom. Article 51 of the UN charter allows us to pursue them. It allows you to hit anybody who hits you or is planning to hit you. “And also allows you to pursue those who have hit and ran away,” Mr Kimemia said.

Kenya has been under sustained provocation from al Shabaab for months, with the al-Qaeda-linked group raiding across the border and, last Thursday, kidnapping two Spanish aid workers at the Daadab refugee camp. (READ: Two Spaniards kidnapped in Kenya likely in Somalia)

French woman Marie Dedieu was kidnapped on Manda Island on October 1 while Mrs Judith Tebbutt, a Briton, was abducted and her husband David shot dead at Kiwayu resort in Kiunga in September.

In all incidents, those captured were taken to Somalia and are being held in al Shabaab bases. Prof Saitoti announced the decision to send troops to Somalia in a press conference on Saturday. He branded Somalia’s al-Qaeda-inspired al Shabaab rebels “the enemy” and vowed to attack them “wherever they will be.”

Helicopter gunships

The military is probably better armed than at any time in its recent history.

Last year, Kenya was reported to have spent Sh27 billion on combat aircraft, helicopter gunships, grenade launchers and other weapons and was Africa’s fourth largest military spender after South Africa, Angola and Sudan.

Kenya can also raise a reasonably large army — last year the Central Intelligence Agency estimated that 20 million Kenyans were available for military service. Out of these, about 12 million men and women were fit for service.

Military sources traced the upsurge in militia activity to August 12, when al Shabaab vanished from Mogadishu overnight, following a sustained assault by AU and Somalia government forces.

It appears that, having lost the war on that front, the extremist group is testing Kenya as a “soft target” for lucrative hostages. Article 51 of the UN Charter, which Kenya is relying on to justify sending its troops across the border, says:

“Nothing in the present Charter shall impair the inherent right of individual or collective self-defence if an armed attack occurs against a Member of the United Nations, until the Security Council has taken measures necessary to maintain international peace and security.

“Measures taken by Members in the exercise of this right of self-defence shall be immediately reported to the Security Council and shall not in any way affect the authority and responsibility of the Security Council under the present Charter to take at any time such action as it deems necessary in order to maintain or restore international peace and security.”

Mr Adan Keynan, who is also the MP for Wajir West, said the military should start this process by setting up security posts at intervals of 20 kilometres along the border with Somalia.

Mr Keynan said the action against the al Shaabab would be an opportunity for the army to show Kenyans how well its peacetime army can do its job.

“We have one of the most professionally run disciplined forces in Africa,” said Mr Keynan, adding, the Army would be judged harshly if it does not succeed in pushing away the militia.

Government spokesman Alfred Mutua said the pursuit of the Somalia militia group was on. “We will give the details tomorrow (Monday),” he said.

An AFP reporter close to the border witnessed large numbers of troops as well as military planes and helicopters overhead.

Several witnesses reported heavy troop movement in Kenya’s border regions, with truckloads of soldiers heading towards the frontier. The kidnappings at the Coast have dealt a major blow to the tourism industry.

Speaking when he arrived in the country after an international trip, Tourism Minister Najib Balala said the insecurity caused by Somali militias requires an international solution.

Somalia's Al-Qaeda linked Shabaab rebels on Sunday warned Kenyan soldiers, as they crossed the frontier to attack insurgent strongholds, that they would feel the "pain of bullets."

"Kenya violated the territorial rights of Somalia by entering our holy land, but I assure you that they will return disappointed, God willing," said Sheikh Hassan Turki, a senior Shabaab leader.

"Mujahideen fighters will force them to test the pain of the bullets."

Kenyan government spokesman Alfred Mutua said on Sunday that its troops had entered southern Somalia to fight the Shabaab, who it says are responsible for attacks on its territory, including the recent kidnapping four foreigners.

In response, the Shabaab called on Somalis to rally and attack the Kenyan troops. (SEE IN PICTURES: Kenyan military off to war)

"I call on all Somalis to stand united against this blood-thirsty enemy that has crossed into our territories and the apostate Somali militants helping them," Turki added.

Kenya's assault comes a day after its Internal Security Minister George Saitoti branded the extremist Shabaab rebels "the enemy" and vowed to attack them "wherever they will be".
