    Kenya is one of the major supplier of UN Peacekeeping forces. It’s not at all unusual for Kenyan forces to be involved in something like this, anywhere in the world.

    And for better or for worse, optics matter. You really don’t think that the US military moving in wouldn’t bring a storm of controversy and accusations of neo-colonialism?

      Technically the US military did move in. But it was only to get Americans the fuck out of there.
