'Militants have carried out frequent attacks on the Mandera region, which borders Somalia. They target people who are not from the local area and security forces, Kenyan papers say.'
'Suspected members of the Somali militant group al-Shabab have killed at least 28 people in an attack on a bus in northern Kenya, officials say.The bus was travelling to the capital, Nairobi, when it was stopped in Mandera county, near the Somali border.After taking it off the road, gunmen separated out those they thought were non-Muslim before killing them, officials said.Somalia-based al-Shabab has been mounting attacks in Kenya since 2011.That was the year when Kenya sent troops to Somalia to help fight the Islamist militia. Mandera, a remote area in Kenya's north east, has been one of the regions affected.Kenya's interior ministry said on its Twitter feed that the bus attacked early on Saturday had been carrying 60 passengers.One official told Kenya's Daily Nation newspaper that assailants had asked passengers to read out verses of the Koran, before executing those who failed.'Can you see the less than subtle attempt to hide who these terrorists are? No mention of the facts that they are is Islamist terrorists killing non Muslims only in the lead in paragraph, because that's all that most people read if they read the article at all. And because that's what forms the headline line on the main news pages. For the BBC who are desperately trying to pretend that Islamic terrorists are not involved in a war against non Muslims that is very very important. Facts be dammed, there's a propaganda war to win.'
'At least 10 people have been injured in a grenade attack at a Kenyan tourist resort south of the port city of Mombasa, say police.Attackers hurled the device into a bar in the Diani area late in the night."We had an explosion at the bar and about 10 people were injured," said local police chief Jack Ekakuro, quoted in local media.The injured are said to be in a stable condition and have been taken to hospital.'
'In a new development, Boko Haram is abducting Christian women whom it converts to Islam on pain of death and then forces into "marriage" with fighters - a tactic that recalls Joseph Kony's Lord's Resistance Army in the jungles of Uganda.'
'A Moroccan boy and girl have been arrested for posting a photograph of themselves kissing online.
The couple - aged 15 and 14 - had their picture taken outside their school by a 15-year-old friend outside their school in the north-eastern town of Nador and posted it on the social networking site Facebook.
They were held for violating public decency after a local newspaper printed the photo, causing a public outcry. A complaint lodged with the police resulted in an investigation.'
'North-eastern Nigeria is under a state of emergency amid an Islamist insurgency by the Boko Haram group.I tell the BBC, stop pussy footing around, call terrorists terrorists and realise that even if we in the non-Muslim world don't want to at war with Islam, it seems that they are at war with us.
Boko Haram is fighting to overthrow Nigeria's government to create an Islamic state, and has launched a number of attacks on schools.'
'Al-Shabaab tweets that all Muslims were escorted out of Nairobi mall before violence, says it won't negotiate.'Racist terrorist murderers? No, the BBC prefer to describe them thus 'The Somali militant group al-Shabab has said it carried out the attack.'
'A senior police officer originally said it was an attempted robbery but later called it a possible terrorist attack.
The Somali militant group al-Shabab had threatened to strike the centre.'
'...the Kenyan Secretary for the Interior Joseph ole Lenku said the security situation was "under control".
He urged the public "not to speculate" about the nature of the attack, and said most people had been evacuated.'
'Some of the attackers were reportedly dressed in hijabs, and it is unclear whether they were men or women, our correspondent says.
...
Witnesses told news agencies the gunmen ordered Muslims to leave and that non-Muslims would be targeted.'
'Gunmen threw grenades and opened fire Saturday killing at least 10 people in an attack targeting non-Muslims at an upscale mall in Kenya's capital that was hosting a children's day event, witnesses said.'Oddly the BBC don't mention the children's day event, presumably because they want to minimise censure of the terrorists, sorry militants.
So they only killed non-Muslims, so their motive would be? Almost impossible to work out isn't it? Well it is if you support Islamist terrorism, otherwise it's f***ing obvious.
'Elijah Kamau, who was at the mall at the time of the midday attack, said that the gunmen made a declaration that non-Muslims would be targeted.
"The gunmen told Muslims to stand up and leave. They were safe, and non-Muslims would be targeted," he said.'
'The gunmen shot indiscriminately and took some people hostage at the mall, a senior Kenyan government source said.''indiscriminately'- It seems that they were very discriminating, only kuffr were killed.
'Senior Pastor/Bishop Umar Mulinde of Gospel Life Church International outside Kampala has begun facial reconstruction after assailants who shouted "Allahu Akbar [God is greater]" cast acid on him on Christmas Eve 2011, while Christian school founder Hassan Muwanguzi of eastern Uganda is homeless and facing death threats from Islamic extremists who burned down his house.Even in Christian majority countries, large Muslim minorities are flexing their muscles and implementing sharia law.
"Acid damaged my face beyond what we had initially thought," Mulinde recently wrote to Morning Star News from Sheba Medical Center in Tel Hashomer (near Tel Aviv), Israel, "causing a very terrible wound, nearly cutting off my head, right eye, ear, nose and causing serious deforming scars, but praise God that He helped me to get good medication and prayers of the saints worldwide, otherwise I almost died."'
'At least 10 people have been killed in attacks on churches in the Kenyan town of Garissa near Somalia, police say. "So far we have at least 10 killed, and more than 40 wounded," regional deputy police chief Philip Ndolo told Reuters.'Read the whole article and see if you can spot who the culprits might be? There is a clue in the article:
'Kenya's border region has been tense since it sent troops into Somalia to pursue al-Shabab Islamic militants. Kenya said the operations, launched last October, were designed to bring an end to kidnappings on Kenyan soil and other violence which it blamed on al-Shabab.'So might the culprits be Islamist terrorists operating under the al-Shabab banner? That's a question that the BBC will do their utmost to not ask.
'Mali Tuareg and Islamist rebels agree on Islamist stateDo read the whole article and wonder at the desire for Islamic states amongst so many people and how many non-Muslim Mali people will have to flee from The Islamic Republic of Azawad to escape persecution for being non-Muslims.
Two rebel groups that seized northern Mali two months ago have agreed to merge and turn their territory into an Islamist state, both sides say.
The Tuareg MNLA, a secular rebel group, and the Islamist group Ansar Dine signed the deal in the town of Gao, spokespeople said.
Ansar Dine, which has ties to al-Qaeda, has already begun to impose Sharia, or Islamic law, in towns such as Timbuktu.'
'In the besieged towns, drinking, smoking, listening to music, watching soccer on TV and playing video games have been banned in what now seems to be a preparation for the creation of an Islamic state.'So another African country succumbs to Islam, and violent Islam at that. Who's next?
'South Sudan's President Salva Kiir says Sudan has "declared war" on his country, following weeks of fighting along their common border.Read the BBC report is there a word noticeable by its absence?
Mr Kiir was speaking in China, which is a major buyer of oil from both countries but has long been an ally of Sudan's President Omar al-Bashir.'
'7. The US Ambassador to Belgium blames Israel for some forms of anti-Semitism
Not to be outdone by James Clapper's ridiculous testimony, US Ambassador to Belgium Howard Gutman sparked outrage in December with his comments suggesting Israel should shoulder the blame for some forms of anti-Semitism, remarks that even the Obama administration itself tried to disown. According to a report by Haaretz, Gutman declared:
"A distinction should be made between traditional anti-Semitism, which should be condemned, and Muslim hatred for Jews, which stems from the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Palestinians,” Gutman reportedly told those gathered, going on to argue that “…an Israeli-Palestinian peace treaty will significantly diminish Muslim anti-Semitism."
8. Hillary Clinton calls the Mubarak regime “stable”
It’s fair to say that the Obama administration’s approach to the Middle East has been one of incompetence matched only by naïveté. From extending the hand of friendship to the Iranian regime through to a complete misreading of the situation in both Egypt and Syria, the Obama team has been out of its depth, demonstrated by Hillary Clinton’s assessment of the situation in Egypt in the final days of the Mubarak regime, given here during remarks with Spanish foreign minister Trinidad Jimenez in Washington on January 25, two weeks before Mubarak fell on February 11:
But our assessment is that the Egyptian Government is stable and is looking for ways to respond to the legitimate needs and interests of the Egyptian people.
9. Hillary Clinton refers to Syrian dictator Assad as a “reformer”
The Secretary of State was woefully caught out as well on Syria, hesitating to forcefully condemn the brutal repression meted out by the Syrian regime against democracy protestors. Asked in March on CBS's "Face the Nation" why the US administration was adopting a far softer approach towards Bashar al-Assad compared to Colonel Gaddafi in Libya she explained that Syria was led by a “reformer”, albeit one who subsequently went on to butcher more than 3,000 people:
There’s a different leader in Syria now. Many of the members of Congress of both parties who have gone to Syria in recent months have said they believe he’s a reformer.'
'A woman who just flew back home from Las Vegas says an airport security officer confiscated her frosted cupcake because he thought the icing on it could be a security risk.'
'Hordes of Western, modern-looking Muslims attack the Great Synagogue of Tunis to the chants of "Allahua Akbar!" and the genocial Islamic death chant:Over much of the Middle East Islamists attack and kill Jews for being Jewish and yet the BBC have this on their page about Tunisia's Jews:
"Khaybar Khaybar ya yahud, Jaish Muhammad saya'ud," which means "Jews, remember Khyabar, the army of Mohammed is returning." This cry relates to an event in the seventh century when Muslims massacred and expelled Jews from the town of Khaybar, in modern-day Arabia.'
'Today there are armed guards outside the Great Synagogue in Tunis and those few threats are being taken seriously.Why are the BBC so determined to hide the truth about how Islamists view and treat Jews?
But others take an upbeat view. A community that has been here for 3,000 years intends to remain, and is indeed encouraging Jews who have left, to return to what is hopefully a more tolerant, stable country.'
