    "content": "every police station and AP unit have got brand new vehicles, bullet proof vests and helmets. The same with our military, we have equipped them to the teeth. I want to urge this House and Kenyans to emulate the Israelis. Israelis do not tell anyone of them to quit, once your conscience tells you that you have failed, one should go home. We do not need to remind them to go home, they should quit and we get somebody else who can perform those duties. We must give our boys the incentives and courage. I remember when I was a young moran, the seniors, or the generation ahead of me used to encourage us. They used to tell us to be proud as warriors to defend our motherland. We, as Kenyans and as leaders, let us not allow ourselves to be divided by these Al Shabaab antics. They are trying to divide us along religious and ethnic lines. Let us stand as leaders of this great Nation. Kenya is a very proud and beautiful country. Let us not allow it to go the Boko Haram or the Nigerian way, where we hear that soldiers run leaving guns behind, it is shameful. Let us come together, as leaders of this great nation and support each other. I heard yesterday my fellow good friend Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale talking about the incident in Mandera. Let us come together as leaders. Today is my day, tomorrow will be your day. Let us mourn Kenyans wherever they are, they were killed and maimed. Let us all as leaders be united. Let us not see Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale as a Member of the Opposition. You remember one time, you, Musila and I were in Kenya African National Union (KANU). Did we take each other as enemies? We used to be friends. So, why should I take you as an enemy when you are in the Opposition? Today you are on this side, tomorrow you will be on the other side of the Opposition. I remember seeing my brother in the Party of National Unity (PNU) and I asked him, you also what to start? We used to be good friends when we were young officers. Now he is in the Opposition. Why should I be his enemy? Why should I not mourn when he mourns? I urge all Kenyans to stand up as the people of this country; from the President to the rest of us. Those are our sons. We must give them proper incentives. Let us not blame the NIS. They are doing a good job. Let me tell you that they are provided with every bit of information, but there is a disconnect with implementers. The President should check the issue of implementers, but not the providers of intelligence reports."
