At least 235 people were killed and another 109 injured in an attack on a Sufi mosque in Egypt's North Sinai region on Friday, Egyptian state-run media reported, in what appears to be the deadliest terror attack on Egyptian soil.

After at least two explosions, gunmen who were waiting outside the mosque opened fire at worshipers as they fled Friday prayers, state-owned Ahram Online said. The attack targeted al Rawdah mosque, situated in the village of al Rawdah between Bir al-Abed and the city of al-Arish.

More Mooslim-on-Mooslim violence.

Sounds like the instant allah background check system (IABCS) needs some work. Need to ban them dang bump stocks.

This must be ‘fake news’ because islam is the ‘religion of peace’©.

Egypt: Hundreds dead as mosque attackers gun down fleeing worshipers

Somehow I doubt that Christians did this, but there will be a general narrative to blame them for it.

[snarkpup]

I've heard Sufis described as "the hippies of the Muslim world," and that "true" Muslims consider them watered down, westernized and non-authentic.

When you’re Muslim, but not Muslim enough.

These types of events are why folks should take seriously the anti-terrorism Arab summit earlier this year.

A lot of them are sick of it too.

Note the Saudi comments on Hezbollah.

That bodes well for Israel and Lebanon.

Sufis are the closest thing to “moderate” there is in Islam. Salafists are the terrorist types. Wahhabism is one of the Salafist versions of Islam.

They all worship Satan, so I won’t bother making a distinction.

Muslims are commanded to kill those who only pretend to be Muslim, and promised perks in heaven for doing so by their insane false ptophet. The result has been 14 centuries of uninterupted blood shed between denominations that dont condider each other real Muslims.

What kind of people could do such a wicked thing?

[I want the USA back]

Subhuman savages killing m*slims because they aren’t m*slim enough. I doubt there is hope for the m*slim world. The extremists wipe out any m*slim who gives a hint of not being a murdering, savage, subhuman throwback.

What kind of people could do such a wicked thing?

As long as they do it to honor Allah it is OK.

[Big Red Badger]

What Kind....

I got a good Idea...

[gaijin]

Muslims did Vegas, too.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Sure are a lot of similarities.

[Old Yeller]

Killed before they had a chance to blow themselves up in a crowd of innocent people.

[PA-RIVER]

Fake news, Muslims are peaceful refugees, harmless, warm and fuzzy.

[Tailback]

That’s why I used quotation marks around the word moderate.
