[size=16pt]UN Asks South African Army To Step Behind.....

....Moves Tanzanian Army To Frontline Battle In Congo DRC[/size]


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."

"So far" - what does so far mean again? Ooooh, it means at the time of writing the article.

Ok, seeing as the article is outdated; the below is a fitting response:

----
Fail!

An article from all Africa dot com, from the start of the clash a week ago.

You are a week late and therefore, inaccurate and irrelevant.

Try again. With something a little more current this time.

And Andrew is waiting for his source please.

UN SEEKS MORE ARTILLERY FROM SOUTH AFRICA

U.N asking us for our world renowned artillery pieces and Rooivalk. One wonders why they're
asking us, since according to Agaugust our troops are sitting down chatting on facebook while
Tanzania and FARDC clean up rebel fighters.

Your stupidity might remain constant, but news changes. Now email the M23 president and tell him that he is lying.
Tell him that he is mistaken.


http://www.news24.com/Africa/News/UN-peacekeeper-killed-in-DRC-fighting-20130829-2

However, the president of the M23 rebel movement, Bertrand Bisimwa, who spoke by telephone, said the UN's intervention brigade was on the frontline of Wednesday's fighting.

"It was the UN that was shooting directly at us, from their helicopters. It's the Tanzanian and South African [United Nations] troops that are on the frontline. It's them that we see first," he said.

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.

yeah right.. to the extent of accepting that you have troops fighting but denying your snipers are on ground? you keep proving your failure as graduate undecided

SA fought alone in Lesotho and your claims above are grossly misrepresented.

yeah, and you failed woefully until other SADC troops came to your rescue

South Africans botch military intervention in Lesotho

They achieved the exact opposite. Moving in against fierce resistance, with poor information from their intelligence apparatus, they failed to secure their objectives timeously, and stood by while the Basotho basically looted and burnt down their own capital. The major causes of this failure were due to a lack of intelligence as to the situation on the ground, and the fact that they were understrength militarily for an operation of this nature.

I suspect that most of the South African casualties occurred in the first few hours as the South Africans waltzed in like some sort of colonial expedition, expecting the natives to see our "maxim guns" and run away. Wars don't happen like that. Something the South African general staff only realised to its dismay when it was too late.


your military lacks the capability to lead.. simple

NaijaPikinGidi: 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

Tanzania's army Artillery guns complete the tactical bombardment of M23 rebels

.....after this the UN is confident enough to reluctantly invite a less courageous South African army with G6 or other artillery guns in congo DRC [/size]


the world's (UN) tested, tried, and trusted military forces have done the most important job of MASTERS in combat, the SERVANTS are now invited to come from Soweto land to follow the teaching and footsteps of their MASTERS.

"The UN and the Congolese army sent MI24 and MI25 helicopters flown by Ukrainian pilots. The gunships, first made by the Soviet Union, strafed hillsides with 30mm rounds and fired rockets, a UN source said.

"We made several passes on rebel positions," the UN official said"
