At 0:37 the white guy (Jason Spindler)at the lower left and the upper right, shown twice (the only United States citizen who died in the attack) was married to my daughter for a few years so they can both stay together while in the Peace Corp. He was an amazing guy who was helping Kenyans start and internationalize their local economy. He just took a short break and went to the restaurant where he was killed at the start of the attack, one week before his 41st birthday. His parents had tickets to come see him to celebrate and, instead, had to come to prepare his funeral.
My condolences bro for your loss though it comes late, it's noble what your inlaw was doing for kenyans, rest assured we got very rough men who are sweeping these cancerous brainwashed extremists off the earth 1by 1..Stay strong 🙏🏿
Christian Craighead and Meyli Chapin have books that talk about this. Christian is more known now for his role on the ground that day and Meyli was in the hotel for 17 hours.
@@theboyzlounge "One Man in" by Chris Craighead (aka Obi Wan Nairobi) - this book is awaiting publishing clearance from the MoD "Terrorist Attack Girl" by Meyli Chapin - available now, as far as I can see
@@zerocompanyhqcrazy thing is they didn't mention Chris Craighead not one time and he was 80% the reason shit went down the way it went down and not much worse. And his podcast he did with Shawn Ryan a few days ago was his best one
Yup, 911 brought Americans together in a special way.... but *_please don't wait for trouble to unite._* The world needs a united USA as it is the best hope for peace in the world at the moment. ❤🇰🇪🇺🇸
@Randy Hendrix: I'm stressing my question, because I need answers as to why a bunch of people would derive joy in killing the innocent, I've asked this questions before hence the quote.
I hope you going to read this and understand it very well ''they want Kenyan army out of somalia" and because amison helped somali government to reduce their power they are getting their revenge on innocent people.
There is video of him going in alone... The African Forces group all are standing behind a corner, scared to death, watching this very brave ex-SAS soldier push on alone... It's crazy to see 10 guys just stand there and watch a comrade walk into a gauntlet type battle all by himself...
@@SamPhillipsPT oh so which special forces unit? Is it one of the Army’s; the 40th Ranger Strike Force, 30th Special Operations Group or The 20th Parachute Battalion? Or maybe was it the Airforce’s Rapid Deployment Unit? Maybe it was either one of the Navy’s; The Special Boat Unit or the Marine Commandos? Maybe it was from the police; The General Service Units Recce Squad or the Administration Police’s Special Operations Unit? Maybe he was training the Directorate of Criminal Intelligence’s Anti Terror Police or better still their CRIB? Could have as well been the Directorate of Military Intelligence’s Long Range Surveillance Unit? So when you say he was training “Kenyan Special Forces” and “led the way”. Which one of our Special and Asymmetric Warfare Units was he training and which one did he lead? For all the reports have read clearly state that the first law enforcement official to go into that mess was the Head of the Directorate of Criminal Intelligence. He went in with his body guards and fired shots at the terrorists to distract them from civilians. He and his body guards only had columns for cover. About three minutes behind him were the Recce Squad, Administration Police’s Special Operations Unit and the Anti Terrorism Police. The Army’s 30 SOG was about 15 minutes behind him and arrived to secure the perimeter and the area as top government officials, Generals and Police Leadership arrived. It was a police led operation. They all let DCI’s Kinoti command the operation. Back to the point, where does this SAS fellow come in and what exactly did he do? Strategic Intelligence Service (SIS) released videos from our operators head cams showing the moment they shot all four fellows. In one of the clips you can see the terrorists hurling grenades as the operators carefully approached. The only evidence of the SAS guys activities are pictures of him outside the building helping civilians and him entering the lobby of one of the buildings. Simply put; it’s all hogwash. It’s no coincidence that Britain wants to be in Kenya’s good books. They have a whole training unit here in Laikipia and many British investments are also present here. There exists a significant number of settlers from the colonial days as well. A token effort was required to prove their solidarity. Anyone who knows anything about Dusit will tell you it was impactless.
Am Kenyan and my heart aches when I see things like this but listen hate is not the way the actions of a few people do not re present a whole country or religion.these people a the devils work and aim to divide us . To the people making jokes about it you are sickening anyway pray for the dead and survivors
I've seen Muslims who went out their way to protect non Muslims in many countries but I've also seen Muslims who LOVE it whenever 🇰🇪 & other countries get attacked & multitudes lose their lives, it's a cold world, we don't live in an eutopia that's why I applaud the very rough men out here who are very necessary to keep a lot of us safe both within & without our borders, s/o to BPU, RDU, KSF, KECAG etc..
@@perosinalmc7143 , I know a lotta Muslims who "claim" the same thing & say it too but, reality is its "some masses" who profess the islamic religion who keep the bloodshed going, it's not some "Christian" or Indian group etc etc..perpetrating such attacks, so I'm calling this as I see it
@@judebenjamin6805 bro…it sounds like your fucking drunk or a racist. Dunno id you realize but you seem to be blaming all muslims for the actions of a few(which the majority of muslims say that they arent following our religion properly therefore they can call themselves what they want but they arwnt true muslims)
@@judebenjamin6805 take this next part with understanding, making a connection but its like saying since a few black people commited crimes, they all do. the reason i made this connection is because a lot of people seem to be more sensitive to this argument so maybe this will help you understand where im coming from
@@perosinalmc7143 , Did you miss the part where I wrote "some masses" in quotes? that was the giveaway to show I'm by no means talking about ALL MUSLIMS! so I don't know how you come to your assessment from my previous reply to you, again...let's not kid ourselves, those among the "masses" who innit for blood in this specific situation also proclaim the Muslim faith, you might not like it but it's the reality , those who attacked garissa university were they proclaiming Christianity? Westgate? dusit D2? were any of them proclaiming or "claiming" Christianity? so again, I know what time it is, I also know that we should always tell it like it is
@@kimberlytv7895 I’m not devil Kenya 🇰🇪 bullied Somalia and sometimes gets bored and invades Somalia also Kenya has Somalia territory nfd which the British carved off from Somalia 🇸🇴 so I don’t see the problem here shabaab have everything to defend their country and people Kenya is big bully you guys are already claiming their ocean
What happened to the Kenya Defence Forces? Cause now what happened 5 years ago is that there was a bomb blast and there were no live bullets but now 5 years later even a peaceful demonstration changes the whole situation
I survived this and all because the 4 gunmen chose to go to 1 building. They must not have known of the existence of that Dusit entrance via Belgravia Building which is also not marked on the map. We literally walked out thinking it was a fire alarm and came face to face with those 4 in black, yet none followed us. They didn't even see a whole group of over 30 people that was exiting a building and ran back. That video where they walk into the compound still sends shiver up my spine.
Weren’t the last two terrorist brought out alive by police? And why do you leave out the SAS operative that made a huge impact on saving many people’s lives?
@@veins2820 - If terrorists believe in Islam, then why did their fellow Muslims shield Christians on a Kenyan passenger when the terrorists threatened to open fire?... *Spread love not hate my friend!*
@@tommymogaka There is ISLAM and there are MUSLIMS. Two different things my friend. Islam is the religion, muslims are those who practice this religion. You can continue with the "spread love not hate" bullshit and ignore the reality however i'm not going to act like Islam is a peaceful religion at all and I can give you many examples of why I believe that is the case.
@@veins2820 - *_Radical Islam or Islam?! Two very different things my friend!_* ISLAM DOESN'T HAVE A RADICALISM MONOPOLY: -Do you forget how the Rohingya Muslims are being massacred by Buddhists? -Do you forget the Spanish Inquisition where great atrocities were committed by the Catholic church in the name of religion? -The Salem witch trials by Protestant America where innocent people were tried and hanged on mere speculation? -Ancient Egyptian Amun cults massacre the Aten worshipers... Pharaohs and commoners alike? -Atheistic France as it murdered it's aristocrats, laity and monarchy during the French Revolution?
@@tommymogaka No Tommy. I'm talking about *Islam*. To be more specific "Islam in it's purest form". Looking at "Prophet" Mohameds life we can be sure that he did a lot of the things that Islamic terrorist groups like Al Shabab, Isis, Boko Haram, Al qaida etc. are doing. "Radical Islam" is therefore not a thing. Islams history is a bloddy one, we can get into that as well if you want to. Islam hurt Africa more than the Atlantic Slave Trade did. You mentioned how Rohingya Muslims are apparently being massacred by Buddhist, but do Buddhist scriptures encourage violence? The rest you brought up is just ancient history, Islam is the only religion in the 21. century that causes conflicts no matter where it is. It is not a coincidence that Islam is the number 1. religion when it comes to terrorist attacks, domestic violence, killing of apostates/non believers, oppressing religious minorities, killing homosexuals and so on.
Embarrassing that a Media organisation paid for by UK citizens produces this content, when the whole world knows what happened to deny true Heroism is about as un British as it gets. The BBC was a trusted Global Brand, content like this is will forever change that
At the 50 second mark talking about the “swift and coordinated security response”. HA! What a total crock of shhhht. Go watch the amazing interview on the Project-Archangel RU-vid channel with Dan Prastalo, a Slovenian expat ex military in Kenya providing security services who responded to the scan and linked up with Chris Craighead and a small number of others who intervened. The police and security response overall, with a few exceptions was a distaster and in some cases they were complete cowards. Dan has hours and hours of bodycam footage including audio and video of the piss poor police response of the incident that some day will come out. Dan fills in a lot of holes but reserves a lot of detail saying he wants that to come when Chris - who he properly credited with doing 80-90 % of the job - is hopefully someday allowed to publish his story.
To the BBC: What a total disgrace to not mention the actions of Christian Craigshead - British SAS member, who played such an enormous role in this event. Saving countless lives and personally, permanently deleting, two of the soulless terrorists. SHAME ON ALL OF YOU. And shame on the UK Ministry of Defense (MoD) who have blocked the publishing of his book of the account of this event. Cowards, the lot of you.
listening to those people even he don't know what means religion so respect each other if you are Muslim or Christian or each otherand remember the God he never say kill my people if even the Quran he never say that thank you
Is not about quick or something like that. When you killing people in Somalia and you want stay in save, 🤔 did you forget the people killed by your soldiers in Somalia... They are Somalis and we know only blood for blood 🥰😍 leave in Somalia or more deaths inside kenia 🥳🥳🥳🥳 long live Somali people
@@siat6630 And what are the people belonging to that said religion doing about it?,Are there programms to fish them out?,What are the governments of such states doing?What exactly are you doing apart from going on youtube and claimng that they dont belong to your religion?
@@Tata-bd9nx lmaooo tf do you want me to do? And yes my country has programs to de terrorise such people but it's quite hard and if someone from my country (Morocco) joins a terrorist group than they're not allowed in anymore, if they get in they're either arrested and put in a high security prison or if they're younger the government tries to help them and make them go back to the right path. There's really not that to do about it lmao.
