According to what you have written above it seems you dont know that ugali comes from maize also that chips is viazi.
Pole sana !.
If you can't differentiate ugali and mahindi how do you want muslims around the world to differrentiate between the soldiers and cars made in Israel and those made from Russia in your army.
What do you mean by that?...WHILE YOU ARE BUSSY USING YOUR KEYBOARD INSULTING US...
no offence sir but the level of ignorance you exhude is beyond reproach. We operate a variety of apc n transport vehicles within our armored infantry and from various countries. A little research by you iz all u need. Mark u my mate has clearly said hardware and not vehicles. Anyway take no further notice, your interest is by large n far to belittle kdf.
Well, Mr. livefire while exposing others' ignorance you must also be careful yourself. Here the term "beyond reproach" has been used out of context. You need to go back to your English language class to know what I mean. Secondly, it is high time you learn that military hardware encompasses vehicles too! Why don't you just use your national language and play safe?no offence sir but the level of ignorance you exhude is beyond reproach (1).

One thing I have noticed with Kenyans is their false belief that mastering the English language is tantamount to being civilized. That is, alas, a vestige of colonialism that has no place in the world we are living in. Jisifie lugha yako na watu watakuthamini. Achana na kasumba za kikoloni. Zimepitwa na wakati!
You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brothers eye. Matthew 7:5
*beyond reproach
So good as to preclude any possibility of criticism.
What do you mean by that?
Why are you getting angry and resort to uncouth language bro? I thought you were more sophisticated than this:-(i find your reply to be satirical if not a big joke. your intellect levels are wanting. If you cant comprehend a mere figure of speech then ua dumber than i thot. I repeat, inferiority complex iz a disorder, grow out of it. About hardware....read the previous posts, you'l know wat i was referring to, not vehicles but ordnances n military gear.

Unpacking the Israel-Kenya deal to help wage war in Somalia

There's an important set of factors driving this deal, and it's worth unpacking some of them to explain why Israel is assisting Kenya.
First, Israel's massive war industry will benefit from Kenyan requests to "help Kenya's police force detect and destroy al-Shabab's networks...[and] provide vehicles for border patrols and equipment for sea surveillance to curb piracy off the East African coast." Israel has sold Kenya military equipment in the past, as ICAHD researcher and independent journalist Jimmy Johnson documents on his new website, but this deal will significantly expand that cooperation. Israeli arms companies will be profiting off a month-long war that has reportedly killed innocent civilians in Somalia.
Second, the deal is another opportunity for Israel to claim that its "enemies" are fundamentalist Islamists akin to al-Qaeda, as Benjamin Netanyahu has claimed. Netanyahu's claim is wrong (Hamas has actually cracked down on Islamist fundamentalists in Gaza) but it's a common trope pushed by the Israeli establishment and U.S. supporters of Israel in order to tie resistance to Israeli occupation to jihadist terrorism.
Third, the help is in line with broader Israeli attempts to "boost military sales in strife-torn Africa."
There is a history of Israel arming unsavory dictatorships and regimes around the world, from apartheid South Africa to countries in Latin America. As Phyllis Bennis writes in a chapter to Wrestling with Zion: Progressive Jewish-American responses to the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, Israel acted as a "surrogate" for the U.S. during the Cold War in Latin America, Asia and Africa, assisting brutal dictatorships in those regions. Kenya is no dictatorship, but the alleged killing of civilians in Somalia and ongoing investigations into post-election ethnic violence that Kenyan leaders allegedly fomented make clear that Israel has not changed its attitude towards countries that commit human rights abuses--a logical attitude considering Israel's own war crimes record.
Meanwhile, al Shabaab has slammed the Israel-Kenya deal, and the Associated Press is warning of the potential blow back to Israel Somali militants could inflict. As more innocent Somalis die as a result of Israeli-assisted Kenyan military action, the risk for more bloodshed on both sides increases.

Concern in Kenya over cost of Somalia operation
By TOM ODULA, Associated Press
NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) - As hundreds of Kenyan soldiers hunt al-Qaida-linked militants in Somalia, university students are growing angry that their government can afford a military operation but not raises for thousands of university lecturers.
Hundreds of University of Nairobi students began protesting after some 7,000 lecturers went on a week-long strike. Police fired into the air to disperse the students, some of whom had prepared for exams earlier this week only to be told they were being postponed.
Lecturers make around $800 a month in Kenya, and their salaries have not be raised in three years.
Kenya's Higher Education Minister Margaret Kamar said she sympathizes with the lecturers, who decided Thursday to postpone their strike for two weeks to allow for negotiations. But the financial resources simply aren't there, she says.
"We have sat down and discussed with the prime minister and finance minister, we cannot add anything because of our boys in Somalia," Kamar said.
It couldn't come at a worse time for Kenyans: In October, inflation was nearly 19 percent because of skyrocketing food and energy costs, fueled by a depreciation in the Kenyan shilling against the dollar. Kenya's Central Bank raised interest rates recently to stem the shilling's decline, raising the costs of personal loans.
And the country's critical tourism industry is being threatened by a rash of kidnappings inside Kenya blamed on the Somali militants.
Stephen Mutoro, an official of the Consumer Federation of Kenya, says the country should brace itself for hard economic times.
Mutoro said there was little preparation for the military mission in Somalia and that's why the government is now sending officials to Israel, the Middle East and Europe to ask for financial support.
