The Al Qaeda-linked Somali militant group al-Shabab is claiming responsibility for a deadly attack targeting non-Muslims at an upscale mall in Kenya's capital.
A statement from al-Shabab on its official Twitter feed Saturday says the attacks, which killed at least 39 and wounded 150, including American citizens, are retribution for military action by Kenya inside Somalia. The group said it was now shifting the battlefield to Kenya. Police say they are treating the assault as a "terrorist attack."

They are calling it an Al-Qaeda linked group because it's better than telling everyone the truth, that it was just another attack by the religion of peace.
A stump speech from last year doesn't mean much now. Try to find something fresher next time.
Our terrorist opposition is always changing as new groups appear while others fade away, but most of the time, only the name changes. Old groups like Hamas quit the fight long ago, but became the trainers for younger aged groups that popped up. Al-Quida is obviously doing the same.
Al-Shabab? Naturally enough. Most of central and south Africa holds no love for the Arabs of the middle east. Race still makes as much a difference there as it does in other places.
Religion is always a useful cloak for those who want enough power to seize control of a nation. There hasn't been a lot of effort spent on discerning Al-Shabab's real motives that I'm aware of. They could be nothing but a bunch of tin pot dictators in the making as much as being religious zealots.
Where is Obama? He's been MIA since the whole Syria fiasco. He showed up and blathered his partisan blame everybody BS the day of the shootings but since then he's in hiding. What a tool. Hey what ever happened to all the innocent women and children we had to save in Syria anyway? I guess liberals don't care anymore. They only cared if they could go kill. Gdam war mongers.

Right-wingers should keep their mouths shut on this subject. They should keep their mouths shut on every subject actually, but this joe more than most:
The Cons literally create the problem, then complain that the other guy isn't fixing it fast enough. What a joke.
