The jihad is truly global, and more aggressive than ever. The jihad group al-Shabaab has claimed this one: “The two explosions were carried out by two courageous Mujahideen suicide bombers who targeted two places where the alleged peacekeeping troops are based.” Authorities will no doubt be searching for motive.
“Somalia: Double car bomb attack near Mogadishu airport, at least 13 dead,” Africa News, July 26, 2016 (thanks to Bob):
At least thirteen people were killed in the double car bomb attacks targeting security forces near the Mogadishu airport on Tuesday morning.
Gunfire followed the attack which has been claimed by al Shabaab Islamist militants. Security forces stopped the shooters in the United Nations premises which also hosts African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) forces.
“At least 13 people were killed in two explosions. A vehicle exploded near a checkpoint and another near a UN building. The security forces managed to intercept the attackers and to repel the attack,” a police official, Bishaar Abdi Gedi, told AFP.
Al Shabaab claimed the attacks in a statement. “The two explosions were carried out by two courageous Mujahideen suicide bombers who targeted two places where the alleged peacekeeping troops are based,” the group said.
AMISOM has condemned the attack which it describes as senseless. “The AMISOM condemns these senseless attacks that were intended only to disrupt and paralyze the lives of ordinary Somalis. We must stop these attacks,” they stated on their Twitter page….
Indeed. When do you plan to start?

“AMISOM has condemned the attack which it describes as — (senseless)
“Senseless” is a euphemism for Islamic.

Let’s get it straight, killers like this aren’t “courageous,” they are contemptable monsters like any other serial killer. There’s nothing worth praising in this kind of murder for a demonic god and fake religion. On no level is jihad murder justified, killing to advance a barbaric ideology that destroys human rights and lives is a curse upon humanity. Muslims have nurtured these sick and detestable ideas for 1400 years, their heritage is one of violence and suffering against others. Wilders is right, the koran is like Mein Kampf, and to me that makes muslims very much like Nazis. They are bigoted like the Nazis, they murder like Nazis, they are antisemitic like Nazis, hell, to me they’re Nazis under a different name. And oh yeah, most muslims are “nice.” Which is an idiotic thing to say under the circumstances. It’s like saying a rabid dog’s teeth are what threatens you, the rest is “nice.” No, it’s all part of the same entity, it all works together to hurt you. All muslims threaten us on a hundred different levels and in every area of life. There’s nothing “nice” about it. It’s all evil and must be eliminated from our future.

Remind me again how Somalia deserved this for killing millions of muslims in the Middle East…
duh swami says
The wholesale slaughter of Christians and other kuffar gas been going on in Islano areas for a long time…
Boko, now ISIS who Hillary refused to list as a terrorist organization, has killed thousands all by itself…
These attacks and others like them get scant coverage by MSM…When attacks are n in Europe or the US, the MSM is all over it, blaming anyone and anything except Islam…

Those two hideous al- Shabaab jihad suicide /homicide bombings in Somalia raises the question is as to why are the jihadist bombers are , so very, delusional that they actually want to become human bombs ? Some of the reasons are that such violent and deadly people are the outcome of the extreme brainwashing that is done in Islamic mind programming centers which are more widely known as mosques and madrasas, by the Muslim clerics, such as the imams and in some countries as Afghanistan and Iran also the mullahs. In those Islamic mind programming centers youth are thoroughly indoctrinated into believing in the Islamic doctrine from the Koran. as found in 44;54. 55:56. 78:31.., of a sexual/lust filled paradise with many virgins, houris, in it for the Muslim male who dies fighting for the cause of Islam in the jihad. First and foremost, those who come out of those places of extreme brainwashing are so very warped, sick and deluded that they actually view such murderous bombing attacks as “martyrdom operations” Likewise, they are so very damaged that they have literally become dangerous to self and others. In addition, the Bible does warn about false teachers who ingrain a belief in a doctrine of a story of a /lustful/lust-filled place with much sex in it. For the Bible warns about false teachers, the Muslim clerics do fit this description, in Second Peter 2:18. Which reads “For they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh…” Furthermore, many a times a jihad –minded Muslim in his death recording talks about “the wedding with the virgins” that he will have after he becomes a “martyr.” Such a belief Jesus would denounce as being based on false doctrine and false teaching. For Jesus taught “Ye do err, not knowing the scripture, nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angles in heaven.” Mathew 22:29, 30. In contrast to the delusional Islamic pipe-dream of the jihadist in the Koranic story/doctrine of a place with virgins, Christians have the reality of Second Peter 1:16. Which reads “For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ…” [K.J.V.]

Great comments, Walter! Both are brilliant and so true.

Those two al- Shabaab suicide-homicide jihad bombers who murdered all those people in Somalia were as deluded and delusional and was dangerous and murderous. For he must had actually believed by that by his murdering jihad bombing he was going to obtain for himself a paradise. The more fool him. For the Bible teaches that a murder “shall not inherit the kingdom of God. ” Galatians 5:21. In addition the falsehood of the story of the doctrine from the Koran, the Qu ‘ran, Sura 44:54. 55:56. 78:31, of a sexual /lust-filled paradise with many virgins, houris, in it for certain men Muslim men is a falsehood the is a story /doctrine is this also absurd. The Bible warns against listening to and believing in unproven, unfounded and far-fetched religious stories. No matter how enticing those religious story /doctrines may be . For the Bible warns against giving “heed to fables…” First Timothy 1:4. Furthermore, the Bible had predicted the coming of such false religious teachers, as those imams, who teaches other a story/doctrine of a lust-filled /lust-fill place for specific men. For the Bible reads “”For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but will after their own lust shall heap to themselves teachers ,having itching ears; and they shall turn their ears for the truth ,and shall be turned unto fables.” Second Timothy 4:3,4. [K.J.V.]

Yes, it’s “jihad”, and the only one stating this fact so plainly, in this instance, is Robert Spencer.
Notice from the news article what AMISON had to say …
“AMISOM has condemned the attack which it describes as senseless. ‘The AMISOM condemns these senseless attacks that were intended only to disrupt and paralyze the lives of ordinary Somalis. We must stop these attacks,’ they stated on their Twitter page.”
This is of course a senseless attack, but they intend *much* more than to “disrupt and paralyze the lives of ordinary Somalis.”
This is “jihad.”
