Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Nigeria: 10-year-old female Islamic State jihad martyrdom bomber murders 14 at crowded market

Jul 27, 2015 6:55 am By Robert Spencer

boko-haram-shekauThis girl may have been one of the “captives of the right hand” (Qur’an 4:3, 4:24, 23:1-6, 33:50) that Boko Haram seized some time ago, eliciting a hashtag from Michelle Obama — perhaps one that proved to be not as compliant as the others.

Boko Haram pledged allegiance to the Islamic State last February.

“14 killed by suicide blast in Nigeria’s Yobe State: Police,” by Olarewaju Kola, Andadolu Agency, July 26, 2015 (thanks to Anne Crockett):

At least 14 people were killed and dozens injured when a bomb tore through a market on Sunday morning in the town of Damaturu in Nigeria’s northeastern Yobe State, according to police sources.

A female suicide bomber — thought to be a member of the Boko Haram militant group — blew herself up at the market’s entrance, Toyin Gbadegesin, a local police official, said.

“The suicide bomber, who had a bomb strapped to her body, was about ten years old,” the official added.

He said the blast had occurred at about 9.30 a.m. local time, adding that 47 people injured by the blast were receiving treatment at a nearby state hospital.

According to police, five un-detonated explosive devices were recovered from the scene, which has since been cordoned off by emergency workers and security personnel….

    Ten years old.

    Human sacrifice.

    If Islamic, brainwashed into a death cult and offered up to slay and be slain…and assure a bunch of her kin their get-out-of-torments-of-the-grave free card.

    Or quite possibly not Islamic, but captured and terrorised and fitted up with a bomb and detonated remotely.

    Human sacrifice, either way.

      That was my first thought.

        Or mentally ill…such a betrayal of innocence!

      I’ve also read (but cannot stand in for the truth of this) that the terrorists use mentally deficient children, who do not know what they are doing, or what is being done to them: human sacrifice. Isaac Wolf (Chicago, Illinois)wrote: During the Iran-Iraq War of 1980-1988, the semi-official Iranian daily Ettela’at wrote the following: ‘In the past, we had child-volunteers: 14-, 15-, and 16-year-olds. They went into the minefields. Their eyes saw nothing. Their ears heard nothing. And then, a few moments later, one saw clouds of dust. When the dust had settled again, there was nothing more to be seen of them. Somewhere, widely scattered in the landscape, there lay scraps of burnt flesh and pieces of bone’. Such scenes would henceforth be avoided, Ettela’at assured its readers. ‘Before entering the mine fields, the children [now] wrap themselves in blankets and they roll on the ground, so that their body parts stay together after the explosion of the mines and one can carry them to the graves.’
      The children who thus rolled to their deaths formed part of the mass basij movement that was called into being by Ayatollah Khomeini in 1979. They consisted of short-term volunteer militias and represented about 30 percent of the personnel on the battlefield. Most basij members were between 12 and 18 years young. They went enthusiastically and by their thousands to their own destruction. Before every mission, a small plastic key would be hung around each of the children’s necks. It was supposed to open for them the gates to paradise. Child sacrifice.

    The cowards send a little girl to do the dirty work they fear to do themselves. Read to me again from the Quran about the “best of people” and the “vilest of creatures” and I will tell you about the accursed snakes of Boko Haram. These vile creatures are unworthy to be called men.

    There must be MILLIONS of Nigerian Muslims who TOTALLY MISUNDERSTAND ISLAM!

    The fact that the Nigerian government has so much trouble stopping the terrorists points to HUGE support for them among the Muslims of Nigeria.

    I stand with the poor girl. A ten (or thereabouts) year old has absolutely no capacity for sick jihadism. Probably drugged, retarded, coerced etc but nevertheless cant just wonder how moslems can stand islam without interrogating the reason for so many of their co-religionists being more devilish than an avreage human can conceive- even under a 10,000 dollars reward

    My mind cannot fathom how someone’s conscience can be so destroyed that they can do this to a little girl and then… go about their lives like it’s no big deal. How do such people sleep at night?

    It’s hard for me to relate to such creatures as being fellow human beings.

    They murdered a child, and 14 other people; that has to sink in mentally at some point, ideology aside. Someday, the bravado will be gone, and they’ll tremble in terror over their part in this. Better that they had never been born than to have harmed a child…….

      “Better that they had never been born than to have harmed a child…….”

      Exactly!
