Muslims slaughter non-Muslims in popular Kenyan mall

At request of the Kenyan government “Israeli special forces now operating to try and end Nairobi Mall siege." It's interesting to watch how the free world responds in a post-American Obama world.

Jihad in Kenya: Muslim Group holds non-Muslims hostage after massacre in Kenyan mall siege, 39 dead, 150 injured

Among those killed yesterday in the jihad attack aginst Kenya by the devout Muslim group, al-Shabbab, was a Canadian diplomat, the Kenyan president’s nephew and his fiancé, and Ghana’s leading poet. Three British, two French, one Australian and one Chinese citizen also confirmed dead.

Why am I not surprised Kenya did not ask the jihadi sympathizer in the White House for help. Where was the leader of the free world on this mosntrous attack on freedom? Obama is half-Kenya for G-d's sake.

"All Muslims leave... we only want to kill non-Muslims": Jihadists massacre at least 22 in Kenyan shopping mall after releasing anyone who could prove they were Islamic by reciting a prayer

Kenya calls in Israeli Special Forces to help end mall siege  Mideast Dispatch, September 22, 2013 According to Agence France Presse (AFP), at the request of the Kenyan government, Israeli Special Forces are now helping Kenyan forces try to end the on-going terrorist siege at the Westgate shopping mall in Nairobi, where Islamist gunmen (and one gunwoman) have been holed up for over 24 hours with about 30 hostages.

A Kenyan security source told AFP that Israeli forces have now entered the mall, at the request of their Kenyan counterparts to help rescue the hostages and bring out the injured.

Reuters differs from AFP, reporting that Israeli anti-terrorism experts were helping in negotiations, but would not participate in operations.

59 people were killed and almost 200 injured yesterday in the coordinated attack by the Islamic Somali al-Shabab movement. Those escaping said the terrorists first separated Muslims from non-Muslims before beginning to execute the non-Muslims. Among those killed was a Canadian diplomat, the Kenyan president’s nephew and his fiancé, and Ghana’s leading poet.

There are about 4,000 Kenyan troops in the south of Somalia, where they have been fighting Islamic militants since 2011.

KENYA AND ISRAEL HAVE DECADES OLD SECURITY RELATIONSHIP

Tom Gross adds:

Kenya and Israel have long enjoyed close relations, particularly in the security sphere. Kenya assisted Israel with refueling and in other ways during the daring Israeli raid in 1976 to free Israeli and Jewish hostages in Entebbe, Uganda (in which the current Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s brother was killed). 

Last month, Kenya asked Mossad agents (together with American ones) to investigate whether the massive fire at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi was a terrorist attack.

Time for “the One” to start earning his Nobel Peace Prize.

“Time for “the One” to start earning his Nobel Peace Prize.”

Please, don’t give him any ideas. No doubt, he’d negotiate with them.

[machogirl]

He’s useless. The World has been so “peaceful” since he received the prize. Look at the Middle East, Barry has done a bang up job there. Peace breaking out everywhere. (/s except for the useless part)

Killing Christian seems to be OK with Clown Prince nobama. Not a peep EVER from the Clown Prince about moozlum losers killing Christians and destroying their churches. NEVER.

[machogirl]

Nope, NEVER

It’s a hostage situation. The Kenya military could surly storm the place, but you’d have to pretty much write off the hostages. I doubt that Kenya has a force as well trained in counter-terrorism as what the Israelis have.

[bgill]

No one has counter-terrorism like Israel but if Kenya can’t handle this one their own, then they’ve already lost and the terrorists know it.

[Roccus]

The critics don’t understand the Russian philosophy. Those terrorists were already dead when they started; the hostages are victims of the terrorism and if any can be saved, this is a big plus;

Moshe Dayan said pretty much the same of the Israeli philosophy after Entebbe. They considered ALL hostages to be dead already...any they saved would be a bonus.
