TERROR AT THE MALL

[Midwest Spy]

Well Planned Attack

The terrorists who attacked the Nairobi mall rented a shop there for three months leading up to the devastating attack that killed at least 72 people and injured hundreds more, according to the Kenyan Interior Ministry.

The attackers detonated improvised explosive devices inside the mall causing severe damage and likely deaths, another law enforcement official said. They also had heavy firepower and it was likely pre-positioned within the mall, the official said.

A former diplomat who lives in Nairobi and maintains Kenyan government and international security contacts told ABC News Tuesday night that intelligence services in Kenya had detected surveillance of Westgate Mall being conducted in the past year, but said hard intelligence it was being targeted for a terror attack wasn't uncovered.

Three days of mourning is underway now in Kenya. RIP to all of the victims and peace to their families.

When the dust settles, these militant assholes will be able to successfully recruit more nutjobs, vulnerable people, and lost souls into their ranks. Through this massacre, Al-Shabab succeeded in gaining a lot of global exposure and upped its credibility as ruthless terrorists willing to stop at nothing. What's next?

Crazy world sometimes.

HotD, let's not sugarcoat this.

Hundreds of lives have been destroyed because of these motherfuckers.

They're pure evil.

If the U.S. had a choice between intervening in Syria or seeking out and destroying these Somali 'militants', I'd vote all day to eradicate the terrorists.

I hope the world unites and gives Kenya what they need to wipe them out.
