GARISSA, Kenya (AP) — Somalia's Islamic extremist group al-Shabab on Saturday warned of more attacks in Kenya like the assault on Garissa University College in which 148 people were killed.

"Kenyan cities will run red with blood," said al-Shabab according to the SITE intelligence monitoring group.

The Islamic militants said the attack on Garissa college was in retaliation for killings carried out by Kenyan troops fighting the rebels in Somalia.

"This will be a long, gruesome war of which you, the Kenyan public, are its first casualties," said the statement, issued on Shabab-affiliated websites and Twitter accounts

1. Carpet bomb the fuckers

mow them down.

[Comrade Grumpy]

2. I'll buy you a ticket.

3. Thats what it going to take. Massive losses on the enemy side.

Anything less just gets ignored and they keep recruiting. If people see that they are VERY likely to be mowed down soon after they join, it might have an impact on their recruiting

7. Really, there are literally hundreds of thousands of undocumented Somalis living inside of Kenya

in addition to hundreds of thousands of documented ones. Think if in the US, Mexican Americans were involved in an Al Shahbab type of movement.

Short of mass deportation of all Somalis in Kenya (which the UN would call a crime against humanity) the problem is only solvable by cutting the funding head off the monster.

Wake when the US takes down the House of Saud.

Not going to happen...

8. That really worked in Vietnam.....

[Turbineguy]

4. Yes, because the way to make the world a better place

is to kill lots of people.

Pigfood.

[Telcontar]

5. Historical data fully supports that position

Progressive civilization is built atop a.mountain of bodies.

6. blatant that they attack civilians

why not the army whose presence they object to?

[former9thward]

9. A guerrilla army attacks at the weakest point.

That would be the civilians.

I am sure they have read On Guerrilla War by Mao (1937).
