That's so heart wrenching. I fear something like that will come to us.
Of course it will.   **nononono*

I do as well.

If 5 people from the USA can go to Kenya how hard would it be for them to attack here?  I wonder why NSA didn't warn Kenya about this? To busy spying on real Americans? Or told to stand down on info?

Good question. What about our vaunted terrorist surveillance capability? Any chance Obama knew about this assault in advance?

Like Egypt just outlawed the Muslim Brotherhood, so too should radical Islam be outlawed.

Anytime an act of terror is committed by a Muslim, a major mosque in the suffering country should be blown up and bulldozed.  And its leader(s) arrested.

They keep trying.  Remember the Boston Marathon?  It WILL happen on a large scale again and I shudder to think of who we have in charge.

I'm wondering why the Israelis are involved?

Kenya and Israel have good relations and have for sometime.
