My sincere condolences goes to the families and friends of the victims of the Garissa attack, may their souls and the souls of other victims of terrorist attacks rest in peace. The whole world prays...
Homeland security (HD), is a term that came about following the September 11 terrorist attack on U.S. soil. The concept of this independent security agency is to ensure a homeland that is safe, secure and resilient against terrorism and other attacks and also to reduce any damages in case of an attack.
A similar tactic can be applied here in Kenya. How many more innocent people must die before a change in approach is made? I mean we are not insane! Einstein however thinks otherwise.
Is it not embarrassing to see our enemies one step or rather one hundred steps ahead of us? Its not surprising since we do not have a special unit to specialise in such things. Moreover they now seem more intelligent than our security 'experts', a good example is the infamous law graduate terrorist, 'just a bullet in the diverse Al shabab arsenal' I suppose. They must be having engineers of all sorts, analyst, doctors, war tacticians and many more experts. Its is more of a war of brains than bullets. This leaves you wondering... What do we have on our side?
Now homeland security is all about intelligence. A completely independent unit with a specialised standard training characterised with more cognitive skills than the usual psychomotor skills. This counter terrorism agency should also contain a unit specialised in search and rescue, handy in hostage situations. Moreover they should have 'spys'... Yes. Deep cover operatives can be induced in suspected Al shabab groups. These agents can provide Intel from the inside and prevent attacks way before they happen. This can even lead authorities to the terrorist leaders. This might sound like a scene in one of the James Bond movies or Jack Bauer in 24 but it just might be what Kenya needs. Easier said than done though!
And to the 'imams' that radicalise our youths to terrorism you should know that Islam is peace and Jihad is not terrorism and killing of one innocent life is like killing the entire world! Jihad is usually translated as 'holy war' but its pure linguistic meaning is striving or struggling! The Arabic word for war is 'All harb'. Therefore Jihad is not a declaration of war towards other religions. It is an internal or external efforts to be a good Muslim, as well as working to INFORM others of the Islamic faith. There's no forcing anyone to religion! War is only to defend the religion and not to attack other religions! This is not what terrorist do!
I hope someone out there will hear my security plead. God help us all.
