I have already written about the horrific Islamic terror attack on a mall in Nairobi, Kenya. Of course it was still early days then, and events were still unfolding. But even then things looked pretty horrific indeed:

Well with the siege finally at an end, we now know far more about this diabolical terror attack, and it is even far worse than any of us could have imagined. The mind-numbing violence, bloodshed, torture, mayhem and killing can be accounted for by with only one thing: this is a religion that comes straight out of the very pits of hell.
It almost seems that what we had running amok in this mall were not just mere men, but demons. How else can we explain the utterly horrific and barbaric acts of cruelty these Muslims perpetrated on poor, innocent men, women and children?
The reports now emerging about this massacre are almost beyond belief. But sadly we have witnessed many other atrocities committed in the name of Islam. And we will likely learn of even worse things in the days ahead. Consider how one UK account describes the situation:
“Soldiers told of the horrific torture meted out by terrorists in the Nairobi mall massacre yesterday with claims hostages were dismembered, had their eyes gouged out and were left hanging from hooks in the ceiling. Men were said to have been castrated and had fingers removed with pliers before being blinded and hanged. Children were found dead in the food court fridges with knives still embedded in their bodies, it was claimed.
“Most of the defeated terrorists, meanwhile, were reportedly discovered ‘burnt to ashes’, set alight by the last extremist standing to try to protect their identities. The horrifying details came yesterday as the first pictures emerged from within the wreckage of the building, showing piles of bodies left strewn across the floor. A third of the mall was destroyed in the battle between terrorists and Kenyan troops.
“Lying in the rubble are feared to be the bodies of as many as 71 civilians who have been declared missing by the Kenyan Red Cross. With detectives, including the FBI and the Metropolitan Police, still unable to reach the wrecked part of the mall for fear of setting off explosives, it could take up to a week to determine exactly who is still inside.
“Yesterday, soldiers and doctors who were among the first people into the mall after it was reclaimed on Tuesday, spoke of the horrifying scenes inside. ‘You find people with hooks hanging from the roof,’ said one Kenyan doctor, who asked not to be named. ‘They removed eyes, ears, nose. They get your hand and sharpen it like a pencil then they tell you to write your name with the blood. They drive knives inside a child’s body.
“’Actually if you look at all the bodies, unless those ones that were escaping, fingers are cut by pliers, the noses are ripped by pliers. Here it was pain.’ A soldier, who took pictures at a bread counter and at the ArtCaffe, said he was so traumatised by what he saw he has had to seek counselling….
“Between 10 and 15 terrorists are thought to have stormed the mall on Saturday, according to Kenyan officials. The police said five insurgents were killed in the battle and at least 10 taken into custody. One soldier told the Daily Mirror: ‘I have seen many bad things, but this will haunt me for the rest of my days’.”
And yet the most amazing thing about all this is how so much of the Western media refuses to even properly identify the demonic killers. The ‘I’ word was conspicuous by its absence in far too many media reports. The refusal of the Western media to tell it like it is regarding Islam shows how far we have gone down the path of dhimmitude in the West.
We would rather allow the mass murder and torture of countless innocent civilians than actually name the real culprit behind all this. Well, I am not afraid to do this. The political ideology of Islam is the culprit, and it is a curse upon this civilised world.
Indeed, just imagine if this horrific act of evil and terror were carried out in the name of Christianity. The outrage would be universal, constant and exceedingly loud. Yet because this was done by Muslims, most of the lamestream media wants to keep silent about the source of this evil.
One writer however was smart enough and brave enough to discuss this very matter. In her article “After Kenya, no more turning the other cheek to those who hate us,” Allison Pearson was quite forward about these matters. She begins her piece this way:
“Picture the scene if you can bear to. A bustling shopping precinct where a group of men, women and children are surrounded by armed men. As one of the terrorists moves among them, he demands that the person quailing in front of him names the mother of Jesus or recites the Lord’s Prayer. ‘Our Father which art in Heaven,’ says one woman. She is spared. Her neighbour, a Muslim boy, racks his brain for any line of the Bible, anything he has heard in school or on TV. But it’s too late. The boy is shot through the head; put to death for not being Christian.
“Imagine the uproar if that ethnic and religious cleansing had taken place this week. Picture the hollering human-rights activists, the emergency session at the United Nations, the promise of action against the perpetrators who had singled out non-Christians for execution.
“Yet this is a hellish mirror image of what took place in the Westgate shopping mall in Nairobi. Islamic fundamentalists murdered scores of innocent shoppers for failing to name the mother of the Prophet Mohammed or recite from the Koran – sufficient proof that they were despised ‘kafirs’ or unbelievers.
“Radio presenter Saadia Ahmed said she saw people say something in Arabic ‘and the gunmen let them go. A colleague of mine said he was Muslim and they let him go as well.’ But she added: ‘I saw a lot of children and elderly people being shot dead. I don’t understand why you would shoot a five-year-old child.’
“Roughly the same reason you would stroll down a street in Woolwich and behead a young squaddie wearing a Help for Heroes T-shirt – which is to say, no reason at all, unless blind ideological hatred counts as a reason.’ You’re a very bad man. Let us leave,’ four-year-old Elliott Prior shouted at the gunman in Westgate mall who had just shot his mother, Amber, in the leg.
“The startled jihadist gave Elliott and his six-year-old sister, Amelie, a Mars bar and allowed mother and children to go after urging Amber to convert to Islam. As if. There is a photograph of Elliott and Amelie standing next to a dead body, still clutching their unopened Mars bar. The children’s eyes are brimming with what they have seen, and can never un-see.”
Yes the emotional, mental and physical scars of the poor men, women and children who somehow managed to survive all this may never be healed. Please pray for them. Pearson concludes her article with these words:
“Where are the voices from Britain’s Somali community condemning the murder of innocents by maniacs acting in the name of their religion? As a former Sunday schoolteacher, I sort of get the point of turning the other cheek. But, really, enough is enough.
“Time for a crackdown on fundamentalism in all its poisonous guises. Time to stop appeasing those who hate us and our way of life. Time, in fact, for the clear-eyed moral judgment of a four-year-old child. ‘You’re a very bad man,’ said Elliott Prior to the jihadist. And he was, and they are.”
Exactly right.
