Try defeat local Rhino poachers first, because Boko Haram will be too big for South Africa alone, you will need many brigade sized permanent United Nations troops deployment in every city in South Africa to help you, that`s for sure......your army is too weak to fight with your 30 battalions of HIV sick SANDF soldiers tongue tongue
.

Boko Haram was defeated by only 5 South Africans in Nigeria. The HIV sick South Africans trained your elite force to handle weapons and fight BH effectively using HIV tricks. The HIV sick South Africans flew gunships for you and defeated the enermy on your behalf.

SANDF is more than 100X effective than your new masters who helped you to defeat BH.

Substantiate your claims or this another anti-South African state.

1.

Questions have been raised in some circles about whether South Africa needs a fleet of modern fighter planes. Lewis-Olsson explains that the Gripens have seen action supporting South African troops in central Africa, and have also been deployed for local events like the Soccer World Cup

http://www.africandefence.net/saafs-flying-cheetahs-to-stay-airborne/

2. SA was ready for more

The four Gripens were noticed on Saturday at Ndola airport in the north of Zambiawhen flying out of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) to the Makhado Air Force Base in Limpopo after the Economic Community of Central African States (Eccas) indicated last week that they will deal further with the crisis in the CAR without South Africa.


http://www.saairforce.co.za/news-and-events/1196/sa-was-ready-for-more

The newspaper reports that field commanders had pleaded for armoured personnel carriers two months before the ambush, that they had asked for sniper rifles, Rooivalk attack helicopters, Oryx transport helicopters and a reconnaissance aircraft - none of which were supplied.


SA Air Force aircraft were also put on standby but due to financial constraints the Gripens were not armed with weapons with an attack capacity.

SANDF soldiers reportedly struggled on the ground due to lack of logistics and air support.

1. The South African political leadership was already under fire for the deployment as the mandate of the protection team was unclear.

2. The Gripens won't carry bombs when deploying currently cause SAAF lacks aerial refuelling capability.

3. A C-130 cargo plane carries the pods, bombs, ground crew etc.

4. If SAAF had a tanker aircraft they'd carry their pods and weapons all the way to the staging area.

1. Your Troops had no business been in the CAR in the first place.

2. Zambia is no CAR. SA Air Force aircraft were also put on standby but due to financial constraints the Gripens were not armed with weapons with an attack capacity.

Your Gripens could not carry bombs because the SAAF is broke. It is very clear. A fighter can carry 2-3 additional fuel tanks and still carry bombs on the extra pylons.

3. You deployed no C-130's, as you have only 3 in operational service. Hence your constant use of charter.

4. You don't have an air tanker full stop, no if's.

Im talking about what happened after the Battle of Bangui not before! Gripens and Rooivalk as you have read, were deployed in the wake of the attack on our Soldiers.

Pic: 4 Gripens in Zambia, armed with Air to Ground missiles

Jln115, after the battle your troops fled the CAR. You don't deploy assets in a country when the troops who need it aren't in the country.

Your Gripens were not armed, neither is Zambia a staging area.

Another failed attack!
Just as we expected it.
I'm certain that hundreds of BH/ISWA fighters died in the aggressive confrontation that saw them forcefully repelled.Maiduguri can never fall,it is an impossibility considering the high concentration of sophisticated military hardwares and highly trained security personnels,including the most feared field operatives of the DSS,SBS,JSTF that have been stationed there.

Anti- South African statements!

1. The South African and CAR goverment had a bilateral agreement in which the SANDF was to train FACA soldiers among other things since around 2008.

A. When Seleka advanced South the SA deployed a protection force for the teams already on the ground.


2. SAAF Gripens carried fuel tanks. When deploying to increase their range. Munition and pods were carried in a C-130.

Citation: John Morgan, a South African working in Zambia, was amazed while at Ndola airport on Saturday waiting for his flight and four Gripen fighter aircraft landed.

Shortly thereafter, a South African C-130 Hercules cargo plane with the Gripens ground crew also landed there.

3. They were deployed to the DRC. A neighbouring country.

There is nothing Anti-South African in those comments!

1. Whatever the disputed reason why SANDF troops were on the ground, it is widely believed, SANDF troops in the CAR were there to protect the mining assets of top level members of the ANC.

2. The SANDF sent no protection team for your stranded troops in the CAR. The had to resort to begging french forces for medical supplies as the troops were heavily under-resourced.


3. Your supposed staging area is over 2000km from where they help is actually needed. You have been lied to once again by your government.

The reports are clear, SAAF Gripens over 2000km from there supposed target had no armaments because the SAAF was broke, still is.

4. Provide evidence your Gripens were in the DRC, credible evidence. Not opinion pieces by some SANDF fan boys who wish the old SADF days would come back.

What? SANDF ? You got robbed of your heavy weapons by local rebels in Burundi tongue tongue tongue

SANDF massively robbed of heavy weapons in Burundi !


October 31 2006 at 04:31am
By Karyn Maughan

MRAPs and Automatic Grenade Launchers looted from Army base by rebels

Burundi bungle leaves SANDF chiefs red-faced


South African National Defence Force troops were sent to Burundi to keep the peace - but it seems the poor management of equipment and the theft of South African weapons that land in rebel hands is fuelling the conflict.

Sources have confirmed that millions of rands worth of vehicles, guns, ammunition and bombs, and supplies worth over R27-million have vanished from the South African army base in Burundi over the last four years.

The missing vehicles are believed to include several Casspirs; a Mazda ambulance; Isuzu bakkies; one firefighting truck; Landrover Defenders; trucks; a water tanker; a Yamaha motorcycle; forklift trucks; Toyota Condor vans; several cars; a tractor; and a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter.

The Star has also established that among the weapons missing are 40 mortar bombs; 54 R-4 rifles; four R-5 rifles; a sniper rifle; two 12-gauge shotguns; eight machineguns; eight pistols; and 27 grenade launchers.

A 15 KVA generator is also understood to be missing.

While army authorities have previously blamed poor accounting practices for the losses, an investigation by The Star has found that on one occasion at least 50 missing SANDF mortar bombs - out of 80 bombs stolen using an army-owned Land-Rover - were found in a FNL Phalipe-Hutu rebel group camp in Kiriri, Burundi.

The FNL has been blamed for a series of mortar attacks on the Burundian capital, Bujumbura, in which at least 300 people are known to have died.

The Star has also learnt that a case of ammunition - part of a total 1,5-million SANDF-owned rounds that went missing in Burundi - was found in the possession of Burundian government forces in 2004.

As yet, the SANDF has failed to reveal how many millions of rands worth of weapons, vehicles and supplies it has lost to theft or mismanagement. Disturbingly, it seems the SANDF has no idea how many weapons are in its possession.

Now, following a scathing Auditor-General's report into the Department of Defence's "inadequate" and "deficient" accounting practices, the Democratic Alliance was due to ask the Defence Ministry in parliament today to address claims that about 70 army vehicles, over 110 weapons and items of equipment, and millions of rands worth of supplies have disappeared from the South African base in Burundi.

Minister of Defence Mosiuoa Lekota, who has admitted.

I have even lost the count of how many weapons BH has forcefully robbed from Nigerian Army bases, not stolen but physically robbed in Nigerian soil from their most trusted soldiers.


Do you mean AU property? SANDF defeated all Burundi rebels and claimed back all which they have stolen. All that were stolen while they were under the protection of Burundian government forces. Get the facts right.


The mighty US army lost over 200000 heavy weapons in Iraq. Theft is theft, it was always there right at the beginning and will always remain forever.

We have many Mr Barlows in SANDF and even those who were his superiors are still with us. SANDF has many consultants and reservist force comprising of former members of SADF who fought in Angola including fighter pilots. We have just a reservist forces capacity that can take on Nigeria and wipe it from the surface of the earth.


With regard to fuel, your information is outdated because it was addressed long ago when the treasury intervened. The SAAF was then offered a special budget to address the problem. That problem was solved within few months and is now finito.

It clearly says in Afrikaans that out Gripens were carrying Air-to-Ground missiles why the fvck would we have Air-to-Air missiles in CAR, Secondly it was never our objective to protect Bangui, infact if that was the case, then it means the French also failed to protect Bangui...or am i wrong?

Nigeria which lost approximately 2000 soldiers to BH as compared to SA which only lost 15 soldiers is seen as unbeaten before your eyes. This is really ludicrous because SANDF was merely playing defensive role and had no intention to pick up a fight with the rebels. We couldn't of course take an offensive position against a poorly armed rebels fighting for the cause that we have no interest. Foreign militaries according to law are not supposed to meddle between a coup. Our job was to give Bozize the protection he needed and train his armies which later turned against us. The people we have trained in SA and in CAR respectively.

The fact is no matter what, but we never lost the battle. We achieved our objectives of saving the life of Bozize and we did it excellently well, even at the expense of the lives of our comrades.


I say again that is LUG-tot-GROND missile meaning AIR-to-GROUND missile.

Fool, the reports are clear!!

You were beaten like toddlers, fled the battleground and begged the french.

The number of Nigerian casualties against boko-haram is very clear, nothing to hide. The SANDF are a cowardly force, who lack the proper training or support to prosecute any mission.


"A source with the United Nations in Bangui said the South Africans had asked for assistance from French forces to help them leave the country."

"Bangui - South African soldiers in the Central African Republic are seeking safe passage to the airport after taking heavy losses during fighting with Seleka rebels, Reuters reports."



"Amy Martin of the UN's humanitarian agency, OCHA, told the BBC World Service that the SA troops had retreated to their barracks and were seeking safe passage to the airport."


"Seleka spokesperson Eric Massi said the rebels had broken through a line of South African soldiers during their push into the city."

You got beaten and you ran away.



Fool, your Gripens armed with Air-Air missilles in Zambia, over 2000 KM from the Area your troops fled from...... LOL!!!!!
1.Source clearly says Air-to-Ground missiles.
2.I also provided a source that proved our Gripens were in the DRC and stopped in Zambia on there way back to SA.
3.It was never our objective to protect Bangui, infact we achieved all our objectives.
4.We fvcked Seleka up, 13 dead vs more than 800 Seleka dead!
5.It was a political decision to withdraw our troops.

So, you haven't kill him after all?
Shekau is a fixed name for any leader of BH,If Shekau III were to die today,his replacement would also bear the name 'Shekau'.
For example: if the said 'replacement's name were to be originally Mohammed Al-Khalifa,on assuming leadership of the sect,the name would simply change to [s]Mohammed Al Khalifa Bin Abu-bakr Ibin Shekau[/s].Such is the way of islamic terrorists.Do you now understand?,yes?,good!.
We also cannot rule out the assumption that it may be his 'doubles' that were killed in NA raids,because frankly,it doesnt make sense that shekau accompanied his troops to assault an heavily guarded target such as Konduga,leaders of terrorist groups are always known to be highly insecure and paranoid,it is more in shekau's style to allow his men do the heavy fighting and then 'occupy' the town before he dares to personnally venture into such a town.

Pure lies. BH isn't even a fixed organisation. It has factions.

EVarn:
Shekau III


No such.

1. Are you blind, those are wing tip AIR-Air missiles.

2. There is no evidence your Fighter jets were in the DRC. A fan boys page isn't evidence.

Provide evidence from the DRC.

3. You achieved no objective in the CAR. Your troops asking for Half-French's, Transport Helicopters and APC's had no idea what they were supposed to do in the CAR either.

4. All evidence on the ground stated clearly your troops were roundly defeated. Reuters, BBC , the UN agency, etc etc all same the same thing.

5. Your troops and their political class are a bunch of cowards.
