Somalia: Muslim murders 17 in jihad car bombing

Apr 10, 2017 5:05 am By Robert Spencer

“The bomber tried to drive into a convoy carrying Irfid, but missed and rammed into a minibus carrying passengers, police said….Al-Shabaab aims to make Somalia a fundamentalist Islamic state.”

Such an endeavor, everywhere in the world, always involves bloodshed and slaughter.

“Somalia bombing kills at least 17,” by Omar Nor and Jamie Gray, CNN, April 9, 2017:

(CNN)A suicide car bombing Sunday in the Somali capital Mogadishu killed at least 17 people, Somali police said.

Terror group Al-Shabaab claimed responsibility through a statement on Andalus Radio, its main radio channel.

Police Capt. Osman Mohamed said the attack was an attempt to assassinate the new Somali military chief, Gen. Ahmed Mohamed Irfid….

The bomber tried to drive into a convoy carrying Irfid, but missed and rammed into a minibus carrying passengers, police said.

Irfid, who was appointed just three days ago by Somali President Mohamed Farmaajo in a major security shake-up, escaped unharmed. Ambulance driver Ahmed Hussein told CNN that some of the injured died on their way to hospital.

Al-Shabaab aims to make Somalia a fundamentalist Islamic state, according to the Council on Foreign Relations….

    The mental illness outbreak affecting mostly Muslim men has reached Somalia. Is it an airborne virus?

      Unsupported Claim: “The mental illness outbreak affecting mostly Muslim men…”

      Fact: “It’s the jihad IDEOLOGY, stupid.”

      Guys, kessler is being sarcastic. He knows all about Islam.

        Indeed. Every single week for the past 6 years or so, I am arguing with leftist peddling the tired, old whitewashing of Islam. I’ve been called all names under the sun in an attempt to shut me up. But I don’t. I keep asking for a hint of intelligent argument explaining why I am wrong, and not a single person is able/willing to come forward. Instead they default to the racist/nazi/islamophobe smear tactic – a typical leftist mob mentality. Laughable and sad in equal measures.

    Meanwhile Islamic State in Sinai claims responsibility for rocket attack on southern Israel. Another volley in this ongoing Jihad World War:

      Disturbing to hear this, Dov.

      So much for the claim that ISIS does not attack Israel.

    Al-Shabaab aims to make Somalia a fundamentalist Islamic state,

    Is there any other kind?

      Somalia is *already* a Shari’ah state–just more proof, DP111, that no one can *ever* be Islamic enough for pious Jihadists.

    This suicide/homicide jihad bombing car attack in the capital of Somali which is Mogadishu reflects the outcome of the Islamic doctrine from the Qu‘’ran [the Koran] of a sexual paradise with many virgins, houris , in it for the male Muslim /jihadist who dies fighting in the jihad for the cause of Islam is found in the “holy book” of Islam, the Koran, in Sura 44:54. 55: 56. 78:31. Also there is the Koranic instruction of Sura 9:111 which teaches “The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain, they kill and are killed.” Getting back to the origin doctrine of Islam from the Koran of a sex –filled paradise with many houris for the use only by the male jihadist who dies fight for the advancement of Islam. All this started when the founder and prophet of Islam, Muhammad manufactured Islam he put , had stolen, some of sex doctrine of Zoroastrian mythology and a yet smaller bit of Hindu mythological sex teachings along with as well as mixture pagan Arabian folklore and myth plus a heavy dose of Judaism and Christianity . Also some of it apostate “Christianity” For the prophet of Islam, Muhammad, couldn’t discern the difference between genuine Bible based Christianity and bogus “Christianity.” Those words and teaching Muhammad gathered from many sources, including the virgins /sex place mythology. , and taught as “Divine Truth” were written down on many things then later compiled and then went into the composition of the Koran. So the hoax of the Koran is actually a mixture and fusion Judaism Christianity and mythology of other religions and now the Muslim clerics with the Koranic brainwashing of young Muslims who are thoroughly mind programmed into believing this Islamic/Koranic virgins myth. This deception of false doctrine /myth into the thoughts of some people was predicted in the Bible along with the false teachers who engage in the indoctrination of such a myth /doctrine into the minds and hearts other people . For it is written “For the time will come when they will not stand wholesome teaching, but will follow their own fancy and gather a crown of teachers to tickle their ears. They will stop their ears to the truth and turn to mythology.” Second Timothy 4:3,4. [N.E.B.]
