Boko Haram Launch Massive Bombings In Nigeria
by JASmius
Five “random” suicide bomb blasts motivated by unspecified “extremism” rock the northeast Nigerian city of Maiduguri, killing 54 and maiming 143:
A woman with explosives strapped to her body blew herself up at roughly 11:20 am (1020 GMT) when she got out of a motorised rickshaw at Maiduguri’s Baga fish market, said the head of the fisherman’s union, Abubakar Gamandi, who was at the scene.
“The bomb was devastating because it occurred at a crowded area,” said Jamuna Jarmi, a grocery seller.
Boko Haram has deployed women and even girls as young as seven as human bombs in attacks across northern Nigeria in recent months, prompting global condemnation, including from other jihadist groups.
About an hour later another blast rocked the popular Monday Market, causing chaos as locals voiced anger at security forces who struggled to control the scene. Just after 1:00 pm a third blast hit a used car lot which is attached to the busy Borno Express bus terminal.
Jihadists, concerned about bad PR? Highly unlikely. But I suppose that's what Muslims want us to think they think about this.
Allah knows Barack Hussein Obama certainly concurs.
