Current map showing military situation in Central Somalia.

They seem completely surrounded in Gobalada Dhexe. How can the FGS/SNA finish them off in this pocket? If they are successful, there will be nowhere north of River Shabelle under Al - Shabaab, leaving the Government to fully focus on KGS/JL.

Air superiority would do wonders. Drones and fighter jets would clean that area up in a month. Also they need to cut that sea access so no chance of reinforcement can happen.

And bombers, have you seen what it did to the syrian rebels 😬

Establish a good blockade, nothing goes in there and nothing comes out.

Next one should be reconciliation. Clans in that area prefer AS due to perceived threat from other qabiils. Enflaming these tensions are men like Kabakutukade and other prominent leaders/commanders. FGS should drone strike these vermin.

Drones in general should be liberally used.

It would be great if they gave clans that side with AS a amnesty period. Giving people a way out of a situation means they won't be willing to lay their life down when boxed in. All of this is of course the duty of the MoD and commanders, there needs to be a clear agreed upon plan moving forward to deal with the remnants in central Somalia before focusing on the south.

What are some of the political implications of requesting USA to drop a nuclear bomb on AS territory?

Nah but seriously if the US carpet bombed the whole area it would raise a lot of domestic hostility towards the US even if they got rid of al kebab. Such an air campaign would cost a lot of civilian lives. Considering that the wound of black hawk down is still fresh and we’re western aligned now it would create a scenario where after they got rid of al kebab. Due to public outrage and animosity the government would be forced to switch to China. I don’t even think the US would be down to do that. It’s expensive and there’s a lot at stake in the region they don’t wanna risk losing a major ally in a place where they don’t have many. From a US foreign policy point of view, it wouldn’t be effective, I can only imagine it happening under trump and instead of an air campaign it would just be a massive drone one. Summary the US would be demonised in the eyes of the somali public, low chance of Congress approval. Not beneficial to US foreign policy. Too risky, incompetence within SNA for a ground assault after an air campaign. US has bigger problems to deal with. Etc
 
Bombing Shabab alone won't fix things. You guys still need to remember that Al-Shabab has influence in Mogadishu and has spies everywhere hence why they are able to collect taxes from Xamar. I even heard some Al-Shabab members are in the government. Rooting out corruption and removing Al-Shabab internally is a must

Drones or bombers won’t solve anything, as long as the political causes of the war exist they can find recruits and new base areas and they make millions from taxation’s. In fact indiscriminate bombing might make it all worse.

Says, first the Somali government and its relationship to its population needs to be fixed.

Yes, they just destroyed cities but the spirit were still high.

This is one of the effects, not Ai generated
