Attack in Kenya Leaves American Casualties

Posted by HCN on Monday, January 6, 2020
Details not in yet. Update 11pm EST: One soldier, and two contractors reported as the casualties. Location, Manda, Kenya, not far from Somalia. Event very early Sunday morning, January 5th, 2020, between pitch black and start of dark bluish early morning time, sunlight minimal if at all.
Looks like a lot of thermal activity went on.

An attack on the Embassy, reference Kenya and Tanzania occurred in 1998.

Notes:
Refer to the history and timeline of all Al-Shabab activities, over the years, especially upon providing an analysis as to whether their actions can be determined to be 'genuine' jihad or not. Genuine jihad means an action only for the Creator's sake, whereat, jihad is often used as a catchphrase by many media entities for acts of terror done by groups in or from the Middle East, or have Middle East sounding names, and therefore not necessarily genuine; some acts of terror are done for the lust of money, lust to propel drug trafficking, and even to foster human trafficking.

AFRICAM and EARF have now arrived to assist with enhancing security in the region. Noble showing. Accolades and appreciation are much given. Appropriate caution in maintaining a watchful eye on the entirety of the situation is a given considering the history of the past few decades of collective military actions.

We, HCN, are actively looking for a new host for this website, due to suspect and unusual activity on the website by some other party outside the intended original author, such as changing the message through ditzy misspellings or grammatical alterations, while lives have been sacrificed for decades. We do not bow to racially based societal pressures and notions of constructs devised to facilitate self-degradation.
