@Mukina I can see you viewing this thread. Push it to the frontpage now or........

Adedayo516: Somalia, they represent somalia(at least according to them). And BTW, has anybody heard a single speech from Somalia's President condemning the attack ??

Yes, he condemned it. The Somali president is actually an ally to Kenya and the west. The terrorists are primarily fighting against his government, to gain complete control of the country and implement sharia laws to the fullest

All the people who have been giving interview of their ''escape'' I've seen so far are muslims. Why not tell the truth? You didin't escape, they released you after confirming that you are indeed a muslim.

No wonder they say people get the leaders they deserve. Here is an airline that Nigerians can easily boycott for safety reason and save their lives, but they chose not to. Were they forced to buy the tickets at gun- point? Why blame the government for this? Boycott the airline and they are out of business, you don't need the gove to do that. Anyone death in a dana crash after the last one, should be taken as suicide

sheyie2007: [size=18pt]The Nigerian government could have just grounded them permanently but corruption wouldn't allow [/size]

Why should they? Why can't Nigerians boycott the airline and make them run out of business? Don't blame the Government for everything, Nigerians can be useless at times

eagle,eye:
got the message below from twitter *********************************************** @AfricaFactsZone 18m Kenya's Uhuru Kenyatta told Nigeria's President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan to handle his own war on terrorism that his own is worst than his.

It's a joke, but I wish he could tell that to Jonathan anyway.

forget about about people who want to commit suicide

If that flight had crashed, I would hhave wished the victims to burn in hell. Foolish people. Let them continue to fly DANA, when they die they'll expect everyone to shed crocodile tears for them.

Gboliwe: Very dry 'sourceless' joke!
and some humans who should have brains believe it.

sorry I forgot to add the link, I've done it now. It's even on BBC

I remember not too long ago Lebanese were exposed for stock piling arms they intended using in attacking Israeli targets. That mall in Kenya also belongs to the Israeli. This kind of situation could have happened in Abuja, our security agencies deserve commendation for uncovering the plot

The more I read it, the angrier I get. It's spreading all over the international media.
Do these people think at all?

Nairaland if you have run out of frontpage materials, this one is interesing.

Sometimes I feel our leaders are trolls who deliberately set out to annoy us. He is yet to give any sppech or press release on the 26 who were killed in Abuja last week, nothing on the 142 and counting killed in Borno, but he has time to send condolence message to and pledge support for Kenya. Very annoying

I can't believe this news, but if the same GEJ is pledging to assist Kenya fight terrorisn, then anything is possible.

Abuja – President Goodluck Jonathan on Sunday in Abuja said Nigeria would give support and render assistance to Kenya in its efforts to curtail the scourge of terrorism. This is contained in a statement issued by his
spokesman, Dr Reuben Abati, condemning
Saturday’s terrorists’ attack on a Nairobi shopping mall in Kenya. According to the statement, the attack on the
Westgate Mall in Nairobi by terrorists suspected to be of the Al-Shabab sect reportedly left about 59 people dead. Most of those killed in the attack, the statement added, were women and children, while more than 150 were reportedly injured. President Jonathan, according to the statement, said the assistance was in line with the spirit of recent agreements for enhanced bilateral co- operation between both countries. “Nigeria will assist Kenya to avoid a recurrence of the heinous attack,’’ it said. The statement said Jonathan also extended heartfelt condolences to President Uhuru Kenyatta and all Kenyans over the loss of lives in Saturday’s terrorists’ attack. It added that President Jonathan and Nigeria joined
the rest of the world in condemning “the atrocious, callous and abominable attack on defenceless Kenyans and foreign nationals’’. The statement said Jonathan assured Kenyatta and the people of Kenya of Nigeria’s full solidarity as they grapple with the attack’s consequences and strive to end the terrorist siege. “The President prays that God Almighty will comfort all those who lost their loved ones in the attack and grant the injured speedy recovery,’’ it said.(NAN)

Imagine how the victims must have initially thought those men were mere armed robbers wo came to rob, little did they know that they were terrorists completely out to kill them. Maybe many would have escaped if they knew from the onset.

imperiouxx: Just saw it now that most hostages were killed. That's how they gave conflicting news before confirming it to be terrorist attack.

maybe you heard 'freed' that is what is being said everywhere

imperiouxx: [size=15pt]BREAK NEWS: Most hostages killed![/size]

Sky news.

I heard 'released'

It is not a religious war

HSM Lives On @HSM_Superstars 6h Muqdisho is not Nairobi, Kismayo is not
Mombassa. We are Muslims fundamentally
and categorically. Leave our Land alone!

HSM Lives On @HSM_Superstars 5h #Westgate was ours when the christians unwittingly decided to invade our
autonomous home!

HSM Lives On @HSM_Superstars 16m #Westgate has become a bridge linking the inexperienced underfunded KDF with the
worlds most bloated artificial army: IDF

Ivynwa: I don't have to agree with you on that, loosen up dude don't get het up. It's sunday, smile. Go get some sunday Ice creams.

Ice cream by this time of the night? Keep loosing up and pretending like all is well. It's always better to be paronoid than be dead.

Ivynwa: How do you intend to do the p*rging?
Killing people, Methinks that some thing went wrong somewhere in the teachings passed on to the ones that believe in killings and that is where it all emanated from. The good muslims that are frowning on these killings should make checks and know where things went wrong in what people are being taught to believe.

Get this point and stick it in your mind, every muslim is a potentila terrorist.
Your ''good muslim'' today might turn out to be the terrorist who will kill you tomorrow

mama-gee:
[color=deeppink]Please can someone explain to me what happened in there?

How did the terrorists know who were muslims and who weren't?

Did they just fire at random shoppers and did they shoot at people that were hiding because I see corpses lying under tables and counters.

Does anyone know how Kofi died?[/color]

They asked questions relating to the Qur'an. Those who could answer were spared

Alshaabab's posts on Twitter

HSM Lives On @HSM_Superstars 2h The kdf are at last showing the world their
incompetence and total reliance on US forces
& funding, ending months of speculation. # Westgate

HSM Lives On @HSM_Superstars 2h Our hearts and Prayers are with the innocent
Muslims besieged at #Westgate by a coalition of Allah's enemies.

HSM Lives On @HSM_Superstars 1h Kenyatta raked millions killing Somalis while
a complaisant Kenya (the elites) shopped at
high-end boutiques and basked in
ostentation.

HSM Lives On @HSM_Superstars 7m Once again Kenyatta has failed to meet the
deadline; passing the flaming torch to the
zionists, preview marathon for the # olympics2020?

HSM Lives On @HSM_Superstars 4h History will record the 24 hours #Westgate belonged to the Muslims. The siege of # Westgate by zionists, USA and KDF will never be forgotten.

Ivynwa:
You are real funny boy.
Yeah I can't help caring about how my fellow humans feel, the other muslims that don't believe in killing christians should not be bullied. Thanks.



It is okay to speak up against the wickedness being spread by the bigots but others that have nothing to do with it shouldn't be bullied in the process.

Don't delude yourself, the terrorist we see today, were once moderate muslims. Even as I post this, more muslims are being radicalised. The religion needs to be purged entirely.

Kenya needs to censor twitter on the internet in General until this operations is over. The attackers obvioulsy have internet access and are monitoring pictures and information about the Kenyan security operatives being posted. Isn't there a way they can block all forms of communication to and from that mall?

People have blamed
lack of education
ignorance
wickedness
poverty
political deprivation
dicrimination and all sorts of things for terrorism and have tried to tackle it in that light , but there is no end in sight for terrorism yet.
It all boils down to one thing: THE RELIGION OF ISLAM

We cannot solve this problem of terrorism if we keep deviating from the main cause, we need to face it squarely.
They attack USA, they are called 'evil and heartless'' people, nothing to do with religion.
They attack Britain, they are called the same things.
Boko haram is killing people in northern Nigeria and it's being blamed on poverty.
Muslim Doctors are living their well paid jobs to join these terrorists, I guess poverty is at fault too.
Delusion has never solved this problem and it won't.

I wonder why people keep deluding themselves about this attack being political and not religious. These terrorists filtered out the muslims and freed them while killing others.
Apart from that, what is Alshabaab all about? This is a militia group fighting to gain complete control of Somalia, not for economic reasons, not for political reason, but completely religious reasons. They want to islamize the whole country, they have implemented the strictest of sharia laws in the areas of Somalia they captured. Kenyan troops are there to fight them because they cannot relax while their nest door neighbout becomes a terrorist headquaters, it will affect their country one way or the other. They even attempted to capture some parts of Kenya and include them in their ''sharia republic''. so why shouldn't the Kenyans invade their country and help their govt fight them? How is Al shaabab's fight not religious?
