Nothing to be concerned about. Obama says they’re “contained.”
“ISIS Expanding In African Nations After Jahba East Africa Pledges Allegiance To Islamic State Leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi,” by Cristina Silva, International Business Times, April 8, 2016:
An emerging terrorist group in East Africa pledged allegiance to the leader of the Islamic State group Thursday in the latest sign the militant Muslim group is expanding across Africa. The group calling itself “Jahba East Africa” gave bayah, or an oath of allegiance, to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and recognized him as the “rightful khalifa (leader) of all Muslims.”
The group may be made up of former supporters of al-Shabab, a terrorist group linked to al Qaeda that controls much of Somalia and has carried out attacks in Kenya and other East African nations. A spokesperson said the group included fighters in Somalia, Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda and condemned al-Shabab for being a “psychological and physical prison,” according to the SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors terrorist activity.
The Independent reported Jahba East Africa issued a statement, saying it had taken the oath of allegiance “on behalf all the East Africans in al-Shabab and those that seek to open new up fronts in East Africa.”
“We in Jahba East Africa are advising all East Africans to leave al-Shabab and their sponsor groups, like al-Muhajiroun, al-Hijra and Ansar Islam,” the statement said. “Like al-Shabab, the sponsor groups have not understood the binding obligation of the khalifah [caliphate]. We are telling the mujahedeen in East Africa that al-Shabab has now become a psychological and physical prison. To pledge bayah to Caliph Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is freedom for the mujahedeen in East Africa and opportunity to wage jihad according to the Sunnah against the enemies of Allah.”
Jahba East Africa urged supporters on Twitter Friday to join it. “A new era will come to East Africa soon InshaAllah [God willing],” the account tweeted….

And yet somehow, blinding themselves to all reason, facts, history, and basic common sense, there are millions of people ready to vote for Hillary Clinton — architect of the Libya nightmare and lap dog of the Obama regime whose incompetence (or was it compliance with Islam through taqiyya and kitman?) that lead to the formation of the Islamic State in the first place.

Shillary would continue Obama’s treasonous policies towards Muslims and continue letting in 100,000 potential Jihadis every year. Stop all Muslim immigration into the West.

Back to the topic: Those dumb Somalis are no more than ignorant slaves(abds) of Arab Islam. No pride, no self respect, just stupidly following those savage Arabs and their nonsense so-called badly plagiarized religion.

Hi Glenn,
You said: “….What a wonderful world this will be.”
I posted this before, but with your wording above… It just made click. So if you haven’t seen it before, have a look at this
Angemon says
Somali muslims in the US have also pledged their allegiance to the islamic state and its caliph — just look at Minnesota.

The Enemy With-in
Kenya needs to build a ‘Donald Trump’ fence and send back more than 400,000 Somali Muslims living inside Kenya.

Islamist arabs own twitter so of course they can pollute the media.

Considering I voted for Romney and everything that comes out of Obamas mouth is trash… I say we have a lot to worry about.

Islamic State expanding in Africa as Somali Muslims pledge allegiance to caliph
………………….
And the Somali Muslims will join those in Libya and in Nigeria with the former Boko Haram. Looks like the Caliphate is on the move across the dark continent–joining the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.
They’ve already absorbed much of Al Qaida and Boko Haram, and now Al Shebab has joined in. They are now launching Jihad terror attacks in the heart of Europe.
“Contained”, huh?
maghan says
Amazing that Africans could be so stupidly gullible to follow the cruel nonsense that is Islam. A mind is a terrible thing to waste
