"Suspected extremists" strike vaccine warehouse, government offices in "restive" northern Nigeria

"Suspected extremists." Well, it's safe to assume at this point they're not moderate. We had not heard much in the way of the jihad against vaccines in a while, though they have often been decried as a conspiracy to poison Muslims in various ways. Conspiracy theories do have a certain resiliency to them, because they do not need to have proof or even to make sense. "Bombs hit vaccine centre, government in northern Nigeria," by Aminu Abubakar for Agence France-Presse, June 3:

Suspected extremists hurled bombs at a child vaccine warehouse and government offices in the restive city of Maiduguri in northeastern Nigeria, police said Thursday.
No casualties were recorded in the attacks that took place overnight and during the day on Thursday, police said.
Borno state police chief Mohammed Jinjiri Abubakar said the attackers, who he described as "religious fundamentalists", used home-made bombs to strike.
One bomb went off Thursday "near the state (government) secretariat. Only the fence got broken. The explosive could not penetrate the premises," he said.
In a separate attack on Wednesday night, attackers targeted a government-run warehouse where tens of thousands of doses of polio, measles and meningitis vaccines were stored.
Three cars in the parking lot were burnt in the attack.
The facility is located in Unguwar Doki neighbourhood where the late leader of the Boko Haram sect Mohammed Yusuf, frequently preached.
An Islamist sect known as Boko Haram, which launched an uprising in 2009 and has been blamed for dozens of killings in the northeast where it targets security forces, community leaders and government institutions.

Stupid jihadists! Did they take the time to read the user's manual?

Read my lips: No more vaccines for Mohammedans.

Like smallpox, polio likely could have been completely eradicated by now were it not for the insanity of Islam.

Polio started reappearing in Muslim-majority parts of Africa where many had refused—sometimes violently refused—the vaccines.

I understand your sentiment, Spirit of 1683. There's only one problem with this, though. Especially these days, Dar-al-Islam is hardly an isolated place. Shortly after polio cases started turning up in Muslim-majority districts, there were several outbreaks in remote areas with mostly animist populations.

As always, the violence and ignorance of Islam hurts its Infidel neighbors, as well.

I thought it was southern Thailand that was "restive". The MSM can't get their story straight.

From the article:

"..attackers targeted a government-run warehouse where tens of thousands of doses of polio, measles and meningitis vaccines were stored."

In other words: vaccines are unislamic, children are *supposed* to die like flies from polio, measles and meningitis (or, in the case of polio, be crippled for life). Inshallah...

Religion of Death.

Religion of Ruin.

I'll file this story in an e-clippings file that I call "Religion of Ruin".

I've heard these conspiracy stories so many times from the Muslims that I'm innoculated against being shocked.
When self-criticism is taboo, as it under Sharia as it could be construed as blasphemy, then all the bad things must come from the kaffirs.
