I will ask again, when are we going to see a national counter insurgency cordon & search operation ???? A former sitting president declared in 2004 that he doesn't see the need for the army in this country, infront of a full parliament! He then removed the defence force from the national border of this country and deployed untrained incompetent police to man the country's territorial borderline!! For 5 years the borders were a free way into the country for an assortment of crime ills". When the defence force was finally returned to its rightful duty the country had absorbed the unimaginable. The flawless structure that had been inherited by the ANC govt after 1994 was never restored to its originality, instead a new structure is being used as a yardstick of current borderline military operations of the republic". The parliamentarians were snoozing through it all!!!
