Washington - US President Barack Obama on Wednesday urged Western and Muslim leaders to unite to defeat the "false promises of extremism" and reject jihadists' claims to represent Islam. "The terrorists do not speak for a billion Muslims," Obama told delegates from 60 countries at a White House summit on countering radicalism. "They try to portray themselves as religious leaders, holy warriors," he said. "They are not religious leaders, they are terrorists." Domestically, Obama has been criticised for not describing the attacks in Denmark, France, Syria and Libya as the work of "Islamic radicals". He chose to face down the critics on Wednesday saying "we are not at war with Islam. We are at war with people who have perverted Islam." In the wake of brutal jihadist attacks in Europe and the Middle East, Obama said more must be done to prevent groups like ISIS and al-Qaeda from recruiting and radicalising. The battle, he said, was as much for hearts and minds as one waged by the military on the ground and in the air. The "ideologies, the infrastructure of extremists, the propagandists, the recruiters, the funders who radicalise and recruit or incite people to violence, must be tackled,” Obama said. He challenged critics at home and moderate governments abroad to undercut the jihadist narrative that there is a "clash of civilizations" between an anti- Muslim west and a radicalised Middle East. Action plan Top US diplomat John Kerry, who on Thursday will host a higher-level ministerial meeting aimed at drawing up an action plan, called it "the defining fight of our generation". And he poured cold water on the notion that the thousands of foreign fighters flowing to the battlefields were all motivated by religious feelings. Two Britons, among about 4 000 Europeans who have joined ISIS in Iraq and Syria, had first bought copies of "Islam for Dummies" and "The Koran for Dummies," he scoffed. But Kerry made it clear that "we're here for a simple transcendent reason, to safeguard the future for our people," saying groups like ISIS "want to drag us back literally into dark ages... obliterate knowledge as they destroy books and school rooms." Communities in the United States and abroad must do their part, Obama said, stressing al-Qaeda and ISIS "deliberately target their propaganda in the hopes of reaching and brainwashing young Muslims." Also read: Obama sends his condolences to Danish PM They do so through "high-quality videos, the online magazines, the use of social media, terrorists Twitter accounts - it's all designed to target today's young people online in cyberspace." The summit has been in the pipeline for months, but took on greater significance after several attacks, including on a cultural centre and on a synagogue in Copenhagen which left two people dead. Among those attending is Anne Hidalgo, the mayor of Paris, where attacks by Islamist gunmen last month on the Charlie Hebdo satirical weekly magazine and a kosher supermarket left 17 people dead. On Sunday, a video emerged apparently showing Islamic State jihadists beheading 21 Egyptian Christians in Libya. ‘We will win’ Kerry said the challenge was to "coordinate almost as never before". "The task before us is to combine the right partners, the right planning, the right degree of political commitment and over a sustained period of time we will win," the veteran diplomat insisted. Sessions on Wednesday highlighted existing anti-extremist programs in Boston, Minneapolis-Saint Paul and greater Los Angeles, which involve community policing and other tactics. The US State Department announced the appointment of a special counter- terrorism communications coordinator, but it was unclear what concrete outcomes there would be. Obama meanwhile spoke emotionally about a Valentine's card he received from an 11-year-old Muslim American called Sabrina. "'I am worried about people hating Muslims,'" she wrote. "'Please tell everyone that we are good people, and we're just like everyone else.'" - AFP source: m.news24.com/nigeria/World/News/Obama-Extremists-have-perverted-Islam-20150219-3 |

A female suicide bomber blew herself up at a crowded market in Biu, Borno State, killing about 16 persons and injuring many more. Former Borno State goovernor Ali Modu Sherff was said to have escaped attack after youths began a violent protest in reaction to the bomb attack. The former governor was said to have made a detour to avoid being caught up the violence which, some said, was targetted at him. It is the latest in a spate of similar attacks by women and girls in the region besieged by Boko Haram. Witnesses told the Hausa service of the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) that many injured persons and corpses were being evacuated to hospital at the time of filing this report. The agency also reported that two other female bombers were arrested with explosive vests at the market. The explosion occurred less than a month after the Nigerian military killed at least 42 insurgents, including 15 Chadians, as it repelled an attack on the town. The insurgents had descended on the town on January 14 but were effectively repelled by the military, which recovered two anti-aircraft guns and captured a number of the terrorists. Boko Haram militants had largely been kept out of Biu through the combined efforts of the military and youths of the town. The terrorist group has seized towns in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa States. The latest seizure was Monguno and Baga, where numerous people, including soldiers, were killed. Many traders, shoppers killed Witnesses said the bomb went off at about 3:20pm after a passenger bus drove into the market and parked at the spot where the explosion occurred. “The driver did not leave the bus as he was pretending to be waiting for his passengers to finish trading. Those that saw him said they never noticed or suspected him to be Boko Haram until suddenly the bus, a model-F 12-seater, went up in thick flames,” said one Aliyu Buba, a trader. Biu town, which is about 185 kilometres south of Maiduguri, is the largest town in that part of Borno State where displaced persons from surrounding villages run to for refuge. A Civilian-JTF operative, who spoke to LEADERSHIP on phone from Biu but wished not to be named, said he could not give actual figure of the dead and the injured “because they are many.” “The explosion today in Biu market happened very close to Alhaji Haruna-110 shop. We have been evacuating casualties, both dead and injured. We are still on it and the figure may be high because some are shattered beyond recognition, while seven corpses can be identified,” he said. According to him, facilities at the Biu General Hospital were overstretched, and individuals were asked to donate blood to help save injured victims. The source said the explosion later ignited a political conflict when angry youths with sympathy for the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) took to the streets of Biu and began to vandalise PDP flags and other structures. They blamed a proposed rally by PDP politicians in the state as the factor that instigated Boko Haram to carry out the bomb attack. “There was pandemonium in the town after the blast. Many of our young men went vandalising the party flag of the PDP because the bomb exploded at a time the former governor, Ali Modu Sheriff, and other top members of the PDP, who were campaigning in the southern parts of state, were being expected in Biu. So many youths are saying that the bomb explosion occurred because the opposition politicians were being expected,” he stated. But another resident of Biu disagreed with the justification given for the attack PDP flags. “The youths simply leveraged on the bomb explosion by Boko Haram to vent their political malice. The PDP politicians were in Bayo and Kwayakusar local government; why was there no Boko Haram attack or bombing?” quizzed the 42-year-old local government worker who didn’t want his name published. “All I know is that the same youths who attacked the PDP flags had been bragging all day that they won’t allow former Governor Sheriff and the PDP politicians to enter Biu for campaigns. And now that Boko Haram bomber came to do the worst, we should not use it for politics.” source: www.leadership.ng/news/411695/modu-sheriff-escapes-attack-as-female-suicide-bomber-kills-16-in-biu-market |

I CAN'T LAUGH ALONE! A plane was about to crash and there were only four parachutes in the plane. Meanwhile there were five people in the plane. The first person was Cristiano Ronaldo and he said: I'm the best footballer, I can't die now". So he took one parachute and left. The second who was Aliko Dangote said: "I'm the richest man in Africa and I'm too young to die". So he took the second parachute and left. The third was Goodluck Jonathan and he said: " I'm the smartest president in the world so I can't die now, my people still need me". So he took one and left. Then it was left with GMBuhari and a little school girl. GMBuhari said to the little girl" take the last one, I'll sacrifice my life for you". The little girl replied no need for that "there are two parachutes left. GMBuhari asked her: "How come?" The little girl replied: Goodluck Jonathan took my school bag" thinking it was a parachute. |
