Ivory Coast: Muslims screaming “Allahu akbar” open fire at beach resort, murdering at least 12

A site popular with European tourists.

Ivory Coast

“Ivory Coast shooting: ’12 dead including four Europeans’ in gun attack on Grand-Bassam beach resort popular with Western tourists,” by Samuel Osborne, Independent, March 13, 2016 (thanks to Steve):

Several people are feared dead after at least four heavily armed gunmen attacked a beach resort in the Ivory Coast.

At least 12 people are reported dead including four Europeans near the Hotel Etoile du Sud, in the coastal city of Grand-Bassam, which is popular with Western tourists.

In a now-deleted post on social media, the Ivory Coast government confirmed there were at least 11 casualties, including a five-year-old child.

Witnesses reported hearing the gunmen shout “Allahu Akbar” (God is great) as they opened fire.

There are varying reports of both the number feared dead and the number of attackers.

A government spokesperson told Bloomberg at least five attackers had been killed and another five were on the run.

Local media reports the gunmen had entered the Hotel Etoile Du Sud, taking guests and staff hostage.

The shooting started at the hotel Koral Beach and continued in nearby establishments, according to the website Ivorian Connection.

Images of the attack on social media show dead bodies on the beach, which has now been evacuated by the army….

    spreading terror and murdering innocents in the name of allah/Satan to nonmuslims- just another day for muhammed’s brave warriors! I wonder why they don’t attack a group that can truly defend themselves!

      JS wrote: “spreading terror and murdering innocents”

      “Islam is in a permanent state of war with Kafirs, because, as the Koran explains, the Jews have corrupted their texts (3:78), and the Christians have forgotten much of their message (5:14). Both have thus chosen not to follow the true path and are therefore not innocent.” – Anjem Choudary

      Christians and Jews who are not under dhimmi-protection are ‘mubaa’ (i.e. licit or ‘fair game’) and thus may be killed ‘legally’ and without concern.

      All Westerners have been warned to convert to Islam. Their refusal to convert automatically brings about a state of lawful warfare until they are killed or enslaved. That is Sharia’s explanation.

      Since no one in the West is considered ‘innocent’, we are now ALL OF US on the front line of conflict with Islam. Westerners may be ‘taken’ at church, home, the office Christmas party or in the daycare. All Westerners have been declared ‘mubaa’.

      “…just another day for muhammed’s brave warriors!”

      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

      Indeed, John, such *brave* mohammedans whom are really cowards preying on such easy targets. What savages …

      “In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man”

    Obviously Trump’s fault.

      No…not Trump’s fault…someone doodled a cartoon of Mohammed on the cocktail napkin! Trump said ‘Why couldn’t they draw another picture.

      Hillary said, ‘They had it coming to them and the American government will find a way to arrest people who do that.’ Obama said, ‘Free speech is not for those who defame Mohammed.’

      The Leftist protestors tried burn down Trump headquarters, but couldn’t find anyone with a match.

    Robert you’re too quick to assume that they’re Muslims, which is racist. It could be those darn Amish extremists for all we know!

      It seems that they must be ‘ JEWS’ shouting Allah hu Akbar.It is actually

      the brain dead Muslims who use that slogan. ISLAM,IN FACT IS AN ACUTE MENTAL ILLNESS.The EUROPEANS invite their own deaths when the go for holidays to these SATANIC COUNTRIES.

        Another case of a joint Mossad-CIA operation to slander Islam by murdering Christian tourists … however, the ingenious Sheikh Mehmed Mouhmad cleverly figured out this devious conspiracy and announced it at his recent Friday sermon.

    As to why those murderous actin of Islamic occur is the following reason and then also abused awful religious idea that of the Koran which would and extremely terrible if the Koran is true. As for the first reason the violence and killing of part of the instruction that is part of the Koran. As in 4:89. 5:33. 9,5, 111,123. 47:4. As for the second it is the “reason” of the cruel fate that Allah, the god of Islam, had declared on on helpless humans For the Koran teaches in 57:22. that” No misfortune[disaster] can happen on earth or in your soul but that is recorded in a decree [Koran] before [in eternity] We [Allah] bring it into existence: that truly easy for Allah..” In other words, according to the Koran the Islamic god ,Allah, is to blame for this beach disaster and all other vicious evil that come upon people. The the good of Islam man the god of the Koran is indeed a vicious monster who is to fault for evil and mayhem. In great contrast the God of the Bible had not decree evil but this and other kinds of evil then are the outcome of people abusing the free will God gave them . As one Christian men had explained, in a lecture he just gave yesterday, about the vat difference between the God of the Bible and the god of Islam.. One of which is that according to the Bible is that “Humans are made in God’s image which means that any acts of violence or abuse against humans is a sin against the God of the Bible. Wow ! What a great and vast difference between the God of the Bible and the god of Islam.

    Witnesses reported hearing the gunmen shout “Allahu Akbar” (God is great) as they opened fire.

    Do they have a possible motive? Because, last time I checked, here in the “Civilized West”, when someone shouts “allahu akbar” [allah is greater] while murdering someone, authorities run around like cockroaches on a spotlight trying to figure out the motive.

    • Shmooviyet says

      Mar 13, 2016 at 6:27 pm

      No– no motive as of yet…
      They will begin a drawn-out, MB-approved investigation that will end with case closed, motive undetermined.
      More bloody bodies lying dead and *whoops* of approval from the muslim world.

    These poor Europeans. First their big parts of their cities were turned into Sharia zones, and for that they pay top dollar welfare to them for doing the job. And it all started because of plummeting white European birth rates. Then they got the Hijrah last fall, with a still unfinished dose of millions more of them just for good measure, to finalize the takeover job. Then they got mass murdered on the beach in Tunisia, and now they get mass murdered on the beach in Ivory Coast.

    This is tough medicine. It all started with Iraq Jacques and his EAD program way back when, in a wholly irrational and unreasoned response to the declining birth rates.

    It could have been worse. They could have been given pork rolls instead of cheese and onion.

    These days, with islam in the world, you basically have to have non-islamic security guards everywhere, especially at places where people are deemed to be having fun. Five thousand islamic terror attacks worldwide for every “other” category. How “peaceful.”

    It is time for the non Muslim world to wake up and to Islam. I don’t care if there are peaceful Muslims. They need to deciide if they want to continue following Satan’s religion or leave. Then we can eradicate the true devout Muslims who follow their evil Quran to hate and kill unbelievers in their Satanic death cult religion..
