Kenya: Islamic Gunmen Attack Non-Muslims At Shopping Mall In Nairobi, Hundreds Killed And Wounded


For peaceful purposes …

Qur’an Sura 3:56, “As to those who reject [the Muslim] faith, I will punish them with terrible agony in this world and in the Hereafter …”

Qur’an Sura 9:41, “Go forth, light-armed and heavy-armed, and strive with your wealth and your lives in the way of Allah! …”

Fox News – “Dozens of hostages are holed up in an upscale shopping mall in Kenya’s capital, forced to hide from gunmen following an attack by members of an Al Qaeda-linked Somali militant group on Saturday that left at least 68 dead and 175 injured.

The Kenyan military remained in a tense standoff with Islamic extremists in Nairobi throughout Sunday, as exchanges of gunfire between both sides were heard inside the mall, Reuters reports.

After night fell, Kenyan police began a ‘major’ assault on the militants. ‘This will end tonight,’ Kenya’s Disaster Operation Center said.

The announcement came after Associated Press reporters said they heard a large explosion followed by silence.

Kenya’s president, Uhuru Kenyatta, said in a national address Sunday that security forces had managed to isolate the ‘criminals’ in one place inside the building, according to Reuters. Two helicopters were seen flying over the mall.

There are between 50 to 200 hostages and most of them are hiding in various places inside the mall, Fox News confirms. They are not being held by the hostage-takers. There are between 10 to 15 militants currently inside the mall, with at least one being female.

Former Kenyan Prime Minister Raila Odinga said earlier Sunday that ‘quite a number of people still being held hostage.’

But some of the people in hiding managed to escape, according to Kenyan media reports.

Cecile Ndwiga said she had been hiding under a car in the basement parking garage.

‘I called my husband to ask the soldiers to come and rescue me. Because I couldn’t just walk out anyhow. The shootout was all over here — left, right– just gun shots,’ she said.

Police said that 49 people had been reported missing, according to a statement released by Kenya’s Red Cross.Read more.

    As the media looks at this, “…JUST another TERRORIST group…” nothing more…

    “EWE…!!!!!!” “UGH…!!!!!” I can’t stand this “lackluster” “nonchalant” attitude the media has toward ISLAM!

    AND THEN, to compound insult upon insult, “our” government does the same!!!

    “WE, the People…” must Unite and take a STAND against “our own government” while we still can! (like this will ever happen!)
