A Scary Event For These Non-Muslims

While most of us were napping off our lunch in front of a football game yesterday...other folks were having to face about the most terrifying thing one can imagine.

Muslims in a bus in northern Kenyan helped dress non-Muslims passengers in Islamic garb, to prevent Islamic extremists from identifying them for slaughter, witnesses said Monday.

Two people died in the attacks in northern Mandera County when gunmen believed to be Somalia's al-Shabab rebels shot at a bus and truck headed for Mandera town, North Eastern Regional Coordinator Mohamud Saleh said.

The bus was from travelling from the capital city, Nairobi, with 60 passengers when it was stopped at Papa City by a group of Islamic militants who shot the windscreen, witnesses said.

Abdrirahman Hussien, a 28-year-old teacher, said some of the Muslim passengers gave non-Muslims head scarfs to try and conceal their identities when the bus stopped, probably remembering a previous attack in the same region last year when al-Shabab gunmen killed 28 non-Muslims from a bus.

An extremist entered the bus and ordered everyone to get out and form two separate groups of non-Muslims and Muslims, said Hussein. One person, a non-Muslim decided to run and was shot in the back and died, he said. He said several non-Muslims managed to group with the Muslims.

A police official who insisted on anonymity because he is not authorized to give information to the media said that before the rebels could take action on the non-Muslims, a brave Muslim man fooled the attackers by saying that a truck full of police officers that was escorting bus was not far behind.

The officer said the lie about the police escort prompted the extremists to order everyone back on the bus and told them to drive off. The extremists, ambushed a truck on the same road and asked the driver whether he had seen a truck full of police officers, the officer said. They shot the passenger, a non-Muslim off-duty police officer who had hitchhiked when he tried to run away, the officer said.

Kenya has experienced a wave of retaliatory attacks by al-Shabab, which is linked to al-Qaida, since it sent troops to Somalia to fight the extremists in 2011.

Mandera has carried the brunt of the attacks recently. Last week al-Shabab militants carried out three attacks on security forces in Mandera.

Al-Shabab separated non-Muslims from Muslims on a bus on Nov 22, 2014, and killed 28 non-Muslims. That December, 36 non-Muslim quarry workers were killed. In July 14 quarry workers were killed.

Can you imagine anything more capable of making your blood run cold?  A Muslim extremist gets on the bus and tells everyone to get off and form two lines....one line of Muslims and one of non-Muslims.  You pretty much KNOW you are going to get shot in the head in just a few minutes.  You know this is the end of the line for you.  Will you scream?  Will you beg for you life?  Will you promise to worship Allah and become a Muslim if they let you live?  Does your wife know where you are?  Have you told your kids you love them recently?  Are your TRULY ready to meet your maker?

And no doubt it's "good" news that some of the Muslims on the bus helped the non-Muslims avoid detection.  It would have been easy for them to just hand the non-Muslims over to the murderers and just stay on the bus.

Satan is alive and well folks....you can see him in the daily headlines coming from the dozens of Muslim extremist stories all over the world.
