Suicide bombing kills 50 in Nigeria
BBC ^ | 21 Nov 2017 | BBC News

At least 50 people have been killed in a suicide bombing in the north-eastern Nigerian town of Mubi, police say. The mosque was packed with worshippers during morning prayers when the bomber struck in Adamawa state. Witness Abubakar Sule told AFP news agency that it appears the bomber was part of the congregation. No-one has said they were behind the bombing but the Islamist militants Boko Haram typically target crowded places in northern Nigeria. Some 20,000 people have been killed in Boko Haram's eight-year insurgency.

Definitely weird. Maybe someone torqued his jaws, or he just wanted everyone to THINK he was part of the Congregation.

Perhaps it was a reprisal and vindictive military operation?

Well, they killed through suicide bombing, and now they are being killed through suicide bombing. I wonder how all these Muslim “intellectuals” feel about rationalizing suicide bombings against Israeli and other “infidels”!

It’s been bad news for Christians all across Nigeria for years. This was a sideshow to warn other Muslims not to go soft on infidels.

“Dear Kind Sir,

My name is Rasool Mohamed Mohamed and I was the treasurer for the National Moslem Mosque Association. I say “was” because I recently escaped an horrific bomb attack at my local mosque. The mosque was attacked by other Moslems. As a result of such a betrayal, I can no longer believe in this religion. I left the city immediately and I was able to take the treasury holdings of $43,000,000. I am now looking for someone to help me spirit these funds out of Nigeria. Your name came to me via the internet. I am told you are an honorable and trustworthy person that call help me...”

Since they were not killed by white cops, does this matter?

We need to ban semi-automatic weapons to prevent these bombings .
