Ethiopian Military Failure in Somalia

[General_Farax]

Beaten , driven out from every region in somalia then squeezed in to horrible bases Mogadishu..What appeared to be a selfconfident strong army with major backing that thought it had the ultimate say i somalia is on its survival now..the down fall will get very ugly in the months to come ishallah..its definately the last push

[General_Farax]

The liberation fronts focus on defeating them biidnillah --

Ethiopia will never be defeated in Somalia,the strong ethiopian army has many soldiers and weapons to defeat Aweys and his friends.

The ethiopian is very tough,somalis are very weak to defeat this army.

Ethiopia is not defeated and Ethiopia aim is not to occupie somaliya its to stop a islamic state in somalia thats a treat to them its not like they wanne occupie it for ever they want to install the puppet regime there and let it be weak for ever So ethiopia is doing good

[Mr Bile]

it is part of military tactics to give your weak enemy some victory and relaxation so that they gather all their force in that eased front.it is true man

I can not understand why ethiopia can not defeat Islamist insurgency.

[Son_of_Somalia]

They came to conquer us but they were only dirty HIV Tigray ethiopians

Son of Somalia:But little did they know that the somali's are a warrior race,never defeated.

Never defeated??

Are you crazy or kidding me?

Many countries have defeated Somalia,let me show you the names of those countries.

Portugal in 1543.Ahmed Gurey was defeated by Portugal.
England in 1920,Mad Mullah was defeated by England.
Cuba and URSS defeated Somalia in 1978.

Look at this:

After repeating that al-Shabab would not stop fighting or engage in reconciliation talks until Ethiopian troops withdrew from Somalia, he said: "We will continue to attack peacekeepers in Somalia, regardless of their nationality."

al-Shabab thinks they can humilliated Ethiopia,Aweys thinks he can insult Western countries without problem.The only language that islamists and somalis understand is violence and war.

Only two countries can deal with the somali problem:URSS and Cuba,they know how to deal with somalis.

The somalis only feared these 2 countries.
