Jihad group attacks Mogadishu hotel, many casualties

Jun 1, 2016 2:26 pm By Robert Spencer

“Members of the al-Qaida affiliated group, which seeks to make Somalia a fundamentalist Islamic state…” Not that this has anything to do with…

Mogadishu

“Al-Shabab attacks Mogadishu hotel, reports of many casualties,” by Ed Adamczyk, UPI, June 1, 2016:

MOGADISHU, Somalia, June 1 (UPI) — Al-Shabab gunmen stormed the Ambassador Hotel in Mogadishu, Somalia, after setting off explosives Wednesday, with at least 10 people reported killed.

Members of the al-Qaida affiliated group, which seeks to make Somalia a fundamentalist Islamic state, detonated an explosives-filled car at the hotel’s gate, and followed with a siege of the four-story hotel, Capt. Da’ud Hajji, a senior Somali police officer, said.

The scale of destruction is huge, the BBC said….

Al-Shabab has claimed responsibility for the incident. The group has a history of targeting hotels in the Somali capital in recent months.

    How many terrorist attacks will there be before the left finally get it?

      They are protected by an impenetrable wall of cognitive dissonance.

      A modest suggestion: let’s pay for them to hold their party conventions in places like Benghazi or Waziristan so they can smell the jihad.

        I agree- but we only pay for one way tickets-and they bring their families, and friends.

      Speaking of the left and liberalism…I received an unsolicited email from a left wing news affiliate (cbs) about Trump and I started to read the comments. These comments were so far out there. “LiberalAndProud2016” was one of them and they were stating how the Repubs are delusional and will believe everything without verifying and how we are all stupid and they were praising Hillary. They even said that Trump lies just to get our vote and we fall for it. How can they say that and be able to sleep at night? Hillary is the biggest liar of them all!!! What’s wrong with people?

      Maybe when they start throwing their gay friends off rooftops?

      When the Jihadist come knocking on their doors and pull their women out on the street to rape them they might start to wake up out of their trances.
      They are so pathetic it’s unbelievable don’t know what planet these people are from, but it ain’t paradise folks.

    So Much destroyed
    So many people murdered
    Dirty evil cult doomed

    Somalia has been fighting for at least the last 20 plus years.

    I remember in the early 1990’s meeting someone who claimed to have been with some group bringing food and clothing to victims of terror in Mogadishu.

    It seems all almost the same, just different players.

    I have no issues if they keep the terror and terrorists there-not here; and they can take many of their brethren back from the US.

    Perhaps France and Germany and Austria would like them. ( Especially after the mayor of paris’ recent statement about refugees-IE. build more camps for them).

    they just need a hug from Mama Hillary

    Perhaps a standup routine from the worlds “funniest” Prez

      Yes, let’s send her to Mogadishu to hug people and ask the Marines, Secret Service and other security to STAND DOWN, the way she did when her American employees were attacked in Benghazi.

      WHAT DIFFERENCE WOULD IT MAKE?

        Excellent suggestion.
        She may not have to make up stories about courageously dodging bullets and bombs for that landing…

        WHAT DIFFERENCE WOULD IT MAKE?????

        IT MIGHT MAKE THE US A SAFER PLACE. ESPECIALLY IF SHE TAKES BERNIE WITH HER.

        And, Bill could get all the young stuff he wants. WIN, WIN-US AND BILL. Maybe not for the women Z( that Bill beds).
