When al-Shabaab militants stormed University College of Garissa early on Thursday morning no one knew that by the end of the day 148 would be dead, constituting Kenya’s deadliest terrorist attack in 17 years.
What most Kenyans did know is that they had lost faith in their government’s ability to keep Kenya safe from al-Shabaab’s increasingly deadly presence. Since 2011, it is estimated that more than 300 people have been killed by terrorist attacks in Kenya.
“This is an issue of security and the government. It’s not an issue that is starting now—it’s been an issue that has been going on for a while. The security matter should be taken seriously and they’ve completely neglected the issue,” said Hussein Malaam, a student at University College of Garrisa who was awoken early on the morning of the attacks by a phone call from a friend warning him not to go to school. That was when Malaam started to hear gun shots coming from the nearby university.
The gunmen first fired indiscriminately into the campus before zeroing in on students in their dormitories, most of whom were fast asleep when the attack started. By mid-morning, students had been evacuated from three of four of the student hostels. At the last hostel, gunmen reportedly separated Muslim students out for freedom, taking non-Muslim students hostage or executing them on the spot.

Corruption in Kenya?
It’s hard to imagine Valerie Jarrett is in charge of THEIR government too.
In hoc signo vinces
Zero needs to go back and heal the country of his birth !
The Very Presence of his Omniscient Self should suffice....
Prolly just some of Obama’s kids acting up.
The truth is that no government can completely protect you.
I’m glad I went to Africa when I did, 15 years ago, because I would never go there now.
They say that all Muslims are not terrorists, yet, overwhelmingly, terrorists are Muslims. What are we poor non-Muslims to do? Since the Muslims do not police their own, I will paint them all with a big brush. Sue me.
Oh! Corruption in Kenya.
I thought they were talking about Washington, the District of Corruption.
Many people lose sight of the fact that the US constitution was written to protect the people FROM the government. A limited government is best, because then it cannot tyrannize you. Now, as for the other people — the hoodlums, terrorists, cooks and thieves — well, the people should probably take care of that trash in their own special way. As soon as you start looking to the government to keep you “safe”, you start empowering government. And then your troubles really begin ...
They need to blame Al shabab, not the fact that their government can’t keep them safe from something that should have been stamped out to begin with.
Muslim terrorists are not the fault of government corruption, and the MSM is just trying to shift the blame again.
Obama’s new homies doing the deed to his old homies.
There were almost violent protests in Australia this weekend between those who were protesting against radical Islam, and there were those protesting those protesters who were protesting against radical Islam calling Islamaphobies, just incredible.
As a sitting U S Senator in 2007 Obama personally participated for Muslim candidate Odinga (his cousin) in the hugely Christian nation (then 75-80%). Odinga lost but Muslims went on rampage, burning many churches and killing Christians, and Obama forced a “power sharing” arrangement where Odinga had a big voice in government. Then Obama insisted that Kenya’s Constitution be changed to allow abortion, or they’d lose our foreign aid. His foot has been on Kenya’s neck all this time.
Remember “cousin” Raila Odinga tried to alGore their last presidential election.
Notice how the author of the article contorts herself to avoid the obvious: That al-Shabaababbadodo are Muslims.
What you do?
Get the best guns you can.
Get the most ammo you can.
LEARN TO SHOOT!
Then—practice, practice, practice.................
Would the re-imposition of colonial rule help Africa’s deterioration?
AS goes the Dark Continent.. So go we..
Eventually the stench will become so outrageous..
EVEN OBAMA Will not be able to ignore it.
