At least five people including top sporting officials were killed and dozens injured when a teenage female suicide bomber sent by Somalia's al-Qaeda-linked al-Shabaab blew herself up during a VIP celebration at Mogadishu’s newly-reopened National Theatre.

Abdiweli Mohamed Ali, Somalia’s prime minister, was at the podium giving a speech when the girl detonated her explosives, at 11am local time on Wednesday.

Someday Al Qaeda or a sympathetic nutjob will do this in America. Obama is embracing the Muslim Brotherhood and attacking Republicans and the Supreme Court. He also is ignoring border security, but filing lawsuits against states that enforce the law.

Failure. With a capital F.

“teenage female suicide bomber “

The strong odds are, she was raped and then told the only thing she could do to save face with and for her family and atone for it, was to give her life.

This is how girls are recruited as suicide bombers.

“At least five people died, including the presidents of the Somali Football Federation, the head of the country’s Olympic Committee, and a television cameraman, according to eye-witnesses.”

I’m not sure what your point is in linking to the other thread.

It is standard operating procedure for alqaeda & it’s associates, to grab a girl, rape her and then shame her into believing that her only option to atone for her ‘disgrace’ is to kill herself in (what they convince her is) an act of redemption.

Americans best get it together fast.

Army Major Hasan played a role in pRes_ _ent Obama's Transition
in 2008.
Not a word of it has been anywhere.
FAST and FURIOUS? Not an honest word by the Lamestream media.
Americans are on their own.

There is more than sympathy for terrorists.
They run the DOJ through Holder and the Tyrant.

Already young Somalis from Minneapolis (a.k.a New Mogadishu) have gone to Somalia to be trained as terrorists and at least one has been killed there in a suicide bombing...I suppose you could call it a training exercise. It is just a matter of time before we could expect radicalized Somalis from Minnesota to be practicing this kind of terrorism in the US.

So what,, even if that’s what happened, she’s still as much of a low life Koranimal as them. Ok, so the raped you and forced you to wear the belt,, she didnt have to attack innocent people.
She should have blown it when they showed her how to operate it, killing her tormenters. Or maybe alone on the sidewalk,, etc.
She had other options, but CHOSE to murder people in a theater.

No excuses for islamicide.
