Somalia: Jihad suicide bomber targets elite forces, murders four people

Jan 4, 2015 6:24 pm By Robert Spencer

Mohamed-Yusuf-Security-Ministry-Spokesman“We shall continue preventing such attacks,” said Mohamed Yusuf, the spokesman of Somalia’s National Security Ministry.

Continue preventing?

“Suicide bomber kills 4 people in Somalia’s capital,” by Abdi Guled, Associated Press, January 4, 2015 (thanks to Maxwell):

NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — A suicide car bomber blew himself up near a moving convoy of Somalia’s U.S.-trained elite forces in Mogadishu, killing at least four people, a Somali police officer said Sunday.

Somali militant group al-Shabab claimed responsibility for the attack, according to the group’s Radio Andulus.

The attack on the airport road in the capital killed mostly pedestrians walking along the road, said Capt. Mohamed Hussein.

Mohamed Yusuf, the spokesman of Somalia’s National Security Ministry, said the government had information about the attack, and the car bomb was detonated while the attacker was being pursued.

“We shall continue preventing such attacks, however we ask people to work with us,” he told reporters in Mogadishu.

      Obviously, there is a ‘good jihad’ and ‘bad jihad’! How can you tell the difference?

    These terrorist thugs do not operate as a regular army does; they usually hide and strike at unarmed civilians. When such attacks occur, it’s already too late.
    The ONLY way to effectively defend ourselves against these thugs is this simple, logical, well known tactic: FIND THEM AND KILL THEM FIRST.
    Preemptive strikes are our only effective defense.

      The best defence is active offence. Take the fight to the enemy.

    Mahound said he would martyr himself over and over if he could…but he never did it, not even once. He always got some dummy to do it for him. Dummy’s are still doing it for him…If sunnah is the goal, martyrdom is not the way. Instead the aspirant should sleep with dead women, suck the tongues of little boys, and molest a few little girls. Raping is also sunnah, but be careful you don’t get a woman who’s boyfriend is named Big Bruno…

    Somalia is what, 99.9% muslim?

    Further evidence that muslims can’t get along with other muslims, and that any policy of appeasement is bound to catastrophic failure.
