A gruesome 16 hour attack on Garissa University in Kenya has just ended. The four attackers have been killed. In the wake of this day of terror 167 students are dead and 79 are injured.
Any guesses as to who is responsible?
What if I told you that the four masked gunmen who stormed the campus asked students whether they were Muslims or Christians, spared the former and executed the latter. Would you like to have another guess?
Al-Shabab, an Islamic militant group, have claimed responsibility.
All of this has happened in a week in which Ayaan Hirsi Ali, the author of a book entitled ‘Heretic’ which calls for a reformation of Islam from within, has come under fire from the leftist commentators and feminists for sprouting rascism and Islamophobia.
The politically correct left need to wake up and smell the roses. Tonight those roses are covered in Christian blood spilled by Islamic killers. And Islam has everything to do with this attack. Whether or not all Muslims support such extremism is irrelevant. What is undeniable is that the Koran calls for the slaughter of non-Muslims and these killers are doing no more than faithfully taking direction from their holy book. Just as Christianity was once a problem when its followers performed heinous crimes inspired by its holy texts, Islam is a problem today for the same reason. Christianity underwent a reformation. Now it’s Islam’s turn.
One more thing that irks me about the response in social media to this tragedy is the many tweets and posts turning to God in prayer. I can assure you that if I was all powerful I would have prevented this tragedy. God does not work in mysterious ways. He either doesn’t care, is weaker than we think or, quite frankly, doesn’t exist. What do you think is the most likely explanation?
