Friends of mine with lots of Africa experience tell me that Somalis are widely hated in Africa for their dishonesty and entitlement and violence.

“Somalis are widely hated in Africa for their dishonesty and entitlement and violence.”

That’s why Barky is bringing them here by the s***load. Makes sense from his evil point of view.

I’d like to see the families of these criminals killed first.

Let these guys know what they have brought down on their parents, brothers and sisters, cousins, aunts and uncles.

Make sure the Muslim world knows.

Then kill them.

NAIROBI, Kenya — Islamist militants stormed a hotel in central Mogadishu, Somalia’s capital, on Saturday afternoon, killing at least six people in what has become a well-established tactic to sow terror.

According to witnesses and government officials, the attack started around 4 p.m. with a car bomb at the gates of the Naso Hablod Hotel, before fighters ran in and shot at guests.

American-trained commandos from Somalia’s security services killed all four attackers after a shootout that lasted several hours, said Abdikamil Moalim Shukri, a spokesman for Somalia’s Internal Security Ministry. Witnesses said the attackers appeared to be tactically proficient, fighting their way into the hotel and then firing on government security forces from the rooftop.

I wonder which part of “Make war against the unbelievers” gives anyone the perception of peace?

To be accurate, the Japs used suicide bombers in airplanes before the Slimes.

It's gonna take the same kind of destruction to stop it this time too.
