MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) -- A suicide bomber detonated an explosives-laden vehicle at the gate of a Mogadishu hotel, followed by a second explosion heard inside the hotel as gunmen fought their way inside, police said Saturday. At least four bodies were seen outside the hotel, one officer said.

They said it was a suicide bomber.

Only ONE entity in the world uses suicide bombers - Islamic terrorists. Nobody else.

If there’s any mention of a suicide bomber, you know right away it was Islamic terrorists.

That’s not “jumping to conclusions”, that’s cold hard facts.

How many of these turds have we relocated to the US?

Meanwhile, we can figure they intend to make this a suicide mission, so, we should speed their end. One daisy cutter should do it, easily.

What are Montana survivalists doing in Somalia?

Lol.

Somalia gives the entire third world a bad name.
It makes southeast Asia, China, Libya and the rest of the third world sewers look good.

When my husband, mother and I were in Kenya there were ALWAYS Somali refugees, mostly women and children, straggling into Kenya's northeastern borders. They were pitiful. I saw what the look of "hopeless" was. PITIFUL.

Google: Due to the instability, violence and protracted lack of a permanent central authority, Somalia also topped the Failed States Index (FSI) between 2008 and 2013.

They are an old country and people but have seemed to experience nothing but trouble. Their fate wouldn't be much different no matter WHO was in charge or WHICH faith they had. But that's an opinion.

The KSA is Muslim but it is one of the wealthiest countries on the planet. Faith isn't the problem, cause or answer. Some of the seven deadly sins would be the cause.

Bad place to be. Some people learned that a long time ago and stay away. You can’t fix stupid, you can’t help people who won’t help themselves. If ever there was a place that needed a reset button this is it.
Step away and let it self-destruct or just burn it to the ground.
Don’t pour more good money after bad rubbish. Some places are just a waste of effort and Somalia is one of them. One of many.

Total 100% agreement from me.
You NAILED it.

Well considering that Mogadishu is not a tourist attraction you have to wonder who was in the hotel worth this guy blowing it up.

Non-Muslims were there. Reason enough for these savages.

Don’t worry folks, Lynch will blow kisses at the Muzzie terrorists and Homeland Security will step up screening of 90 year old Caucasian grandmothers at U.S. airports.

Somalia has a climate like California, a population density like Colorado and 2000 miles of coastline astride one of the busiest trade routes in the world.

Remind me why it is that they are so dysfunctional that they have to export refugees.

That is an interesting question...why is that country one of the dregs of the earth rather than a prosperous and desirable place to live? Yes, their "religion" has a lot to do with it but other non-muslim countries have similar advantages but are also unsuccessful.

Montana survivalists

I don't know about that. My inside sources suggest that it is Mennonites.
