Yeah it may seem like but these guys are silly.They are good at fighting psychological wars.That video is aimed at instilling fear but why are they not showing the rest of the war? The AU forces are on the winning side and most of them terrorists are surrendering everyday.Just yesterday their(elshabab) military training camp was bombed and a number of them killed. Am sure some of those killed are in that video.Kenya has taken control of several towns as they advance deep into somalia and have set bases. Look here,these guys movements are monitored and tracked by the US drones. They are providing logistics to the AU and so their movement is very limited.They hide in holes cz trucks/donkeys carrying suspicious baggage are bombed.

It sad for the Burundians but that is the price of war.A soldier is always ready to die. Why should one group destabilise peace in the whole region?
Kenya wants the somalis back in their country and the only way is to silence these terrorists and have a stable force there.That is what its all about.
If they dare attack Kenya (something I know they are scared to do) they will see war in full measure. These guys without Kenya are as good as dead because even the foreign aid is distributed from Kenya.No NGO can enter somalia. They set camp in Kenya and take care of thousands of somalis in Kenya.
Rem also elshabab money is invested in Kenya through 3rd parties, we all know where they are and have invested its no secret,their families are in Kenya and so is half of the population. Kicking them all out would be costly/deadly for them.
Now Kenya looks like a military zone. Security is so tight everywhere we are used to getting our handbags/bodies checked everyday.
