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

Tunisia: Islamic jihadists murder at least 12 with bomb on bus full of presidential guards

Nov 24, 2015 5:07 pm By Robert Spencer

“It is the third major attack to strike Tunisia this year after a militant killed 38 foreigners at a beach hotel in June and gunmen killed 21 tourists at the Bardo Museum in Tunis in March. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for both attacks.” The jihadis are increasingly aggressive and bloodthirsty all over the world. They apparently realize that no one in the free world has the will to stop them.

“Deadly blast hits bus carrying Tunisia presidential guards,” France 24, November 24, 2015:

At least 12 people were killed on Tuesday after an explosion tore through a bus full of Tunisian presidential guards in an attack one source said was probably carried out by a bomber detonating his explosives in the vehicle.

Ambulances rushed wounded from the scene and security forces closed off streets around Mohamed V Avenue, one of the major streets in the capital Tunis and where the charred wreckage of the bus lay not far from the interior ministry.

It is the third major attack to strike Tunisia this year after a militant killed 38 foreigners at a beach hotel in June and gunmen killed 21 tourists at the Bardo Museum in Tunis in March. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for both attacks.

Security sources said the guards were boarding the bus to be taken to the presidential place on the outskirts of the city when the explosion hit. One presidential source said it was likely that a bomber had detonated his explosive belt inside.

“I was on Mohamed V, just getting ready to get into my car, when there was a huge explosion. I saw the bus blow up. There were bodies and blood everywhere,” said Bassem Trifi, a witness.

At least 12 guards were killed and 17 wounded, according to an interior ministry statement….

But several thousand Tunisians have also left to fight in Syria, Iraq and Libya with the IS group and other militant groups, and some have threatened to carry out attacks at home….

    here is the mathematics of mohamidizm according to one learned gentleman with origins in Aryavarta – ten percent good ninety percent criminal- terrorists

    not saying i agree but from life experience i would say this seems correct

    when the foundation of belief is speaking falsehoods, well what can be stated except connect the dots…

    if only we could learn from history

    Ahimsa & cheers!

    Tunisia is 99.8% muslim, population 10 million. No shortage of unholy ko ‘rans spread around everywhere. Some of them are bound to sprout into full jihadi mode.

    “Only” twelve or so? Islam, you’re slipping. Only twelve or so simply will not do.

      Islam means to submit not peace.

      That is why it says post comment not submit comment.

      Robert does not want you to submit.

      Religion of Peace comes from listening (just listening and not thinking) to too many Muslims and their apologists.and from Imams like Kerry,Cameron,Bush.

    Was this “regular” terrorism or Sunni/ Shia?

    If the latter, where are the retalitory bombings?

    Wasn’t this where “Arab Spring” started?

    If so, was this envisioned? By anyone (including terrorists)

    Just asking

    I can KIND OF –more or less–really less-understand killign the tourists at a beach resort ( “immodestky dressed-real or imagined); and the museum ( education? that is a filthy word; as is culture).

    But the guards- reasonable dressed; and brother Muslims. Didn’t/doesn’t the government give them whatever they want.?
