"CASAMANCE: The Senegalese require more equipment for the Army and look forward to Wade's decision to allow the pursuit of the rebels until Gambian territory

The death of Senegalese elements of the Armed Forces on Tuesday in Diégoune, does not leave indifferent the Senegalese people. Past the emotion, our fellow citizens in forums on the Internet require more resources for Jambaar.

Senegalese Armed Forces (Fas) had, on Tuesday in Diégoune in Bignona, one of the biggest losses in history, since the outbreak of the Casamance crisis. In total, nine soldiers were declared dead, according to the dirp, when other sources speak of fifteen killed and five seriously injured. After presenting their condolences to the families of the victims, users could not contain their anger. First and foremost, the thesis of 'serious accident' put forward by the dirp in which seven soldiers died is demolished. Those who pretend to be soldiers, who have stayed in Casamance, argue that the vehicle carrying the soldiers was met and destroyed by a rocket RPG7. 'I'm really amazed that our valiant soldiers killed, massacred every day and that policies show an ill will. Y has had enough of this phony war in which the son of Senegal killing each other, while the authorities are concerned about the political ', fulminates a surfer, not without asking that it endows the Army' of materials for power face '.

Another question: 'Why the higher authorities of the Army and the Force is demanding they not patrol with tanks and machine guns channels?' Another user, "the CGS must bring order and address issues of non-commissioned officers and soldiers who seek to bring, at the cost of living, peace in Casamance. " They have the feeling that the Senegalese soldiers are under-equipped and poorly paid. Therefore, some users have the belief that defense budgets are not affected where they should go. But they serve rather to improve the comfort of some senior officers have become bureaucrats. 'The motto of the Army:' We kill, but we are not disgrace 'has no meaning since the Army is in disarray. Our leaders, if I can call them that, in their offices are air-conditioned mini bars, coffee machines, with service of cakes. Therefore, they ignore what is happening in the military bases of Casamance. These leaders, who drive 4x4 with diesel books, millions at hand, will be ready to sacrifice all their interests to the Army ', laments a user who claims to be an Army officer.

Moreover, most Internet users welcome the decision to allow Wade the right to pursue the rebels until Gambian territory. Indeed, some were quick to see the renewed violence in Casamance complicity of The Gambia Yahya Jammeh. 'As long as the Gambia with complicity of the MFDC rebels will continue, the war will drag on,' wrote one user. In another, the management of the Casamance crisis is serious business. Therefore, its resolution requires firmness. 'The war will stop when, by our determination, we serve the MFDC and its supporters that the blood and tears have flowed too, suffering has lasted too long', understands a user."
