Gunmen storm Kenyan shopping mall, at least 22 people killed

Gunmen stormed a shopping mall in Nairobi, Kenya this afternoon Saturday September 21 killing at least 22 people in what could possibly be a terrorist attack. An eyewitness claimed the gunmen told Muslims to stand up and leave the mall and that only non-Muslims would be targeted. By the time they finished shooting indiscriminately, at least 22 were dead and at least 50 people injured.

One survivor said and that the attackers started from the Westage mall ground floor and made their way to the top. He said they had grenades and AK-47 rifles and he saw at least five of them. Local TV stations reported that the gunmen took hostages as soldiers and local policemen surrounded the mall. Another survivor said he was shot at by a man who looked like a Somali.

The Somali militant group al Shabaab had previously threatened to attack hotels, nightclubs and the Westgate mall, which is one of the biggest malls in the city, popular with the city's expatriate and foreigners...but there's no official confirmation for now that the group is behind this attack.

Security guards were seen wheeling out bloodstained bodies in shopping trolleys as soldiers continue to comb the mall looking for the gunmen. Kenyan Red Cross said at least 20 have been killed and more casualties were still inside the complex. See photos after the cut...

See why they say all terrorist are muslims!!! But one day we shall all give account before the lord. When these shoppers left their homes a few hours ago, they didn't plan to die. But because u are a muslim and u believe in allah, u feel christians doesn't have the right to live. What manner of people are muslims for Gods sake??? How can only one particular group of people be causing problems all over the world? What happened to the concience of a muslim? Just imagine the world without islam! Imagine the peace. Apologies to my muslim friends but ur religion is a religion of satan. Islam is a curse.

When people kills in America you don't term it to be a terrorist attack(atleast somebody just killed like 12 people on wednesday)but if it's in Africa they claim that they a muslims.Are the kidnappers muslim too.Muslim is a religion of peace. There is nothing like boko haram in Nig but just the creedy Politicians that a using the illiterate nother youth to do Evil.God ll destroy them all . GED knows aswell and his hands too are not so clean cos if not why did he removed and killed GEN ASASI after revealing the truth that PDP member are the one behind/sponsoring the so call Boko haram(he said it oppenly)he was removed some months after and also got assasinated.BUt God ll destroy them all.

Today is Sunday, another pastor someone will fuel his congregation with more hate as the information age continues to divide the world in the name of God.

Only if people would use the good things of the information age to discover that these crimes have always existed from time immemorial and the only way it stopped in the west was when secular society and even the fellow Christians began to clamor for these things to stop and began to challenge these extremists not violently but intellectually.

In other words, Muslims must challenge fellow Muslims to their violent interpretation of Islam.

And we should stop believing that everything western is Christian. Even core Christian beliefs are at variance with most of these western cultures.

Also all the narcissist thinking that someone is better or more than another must stop. We are all equal, the only difference between you and me is where we born.
