"A Meticulous Vetting Process" The Kenya Westgate Mall Attack, The Koran, Jesus, and the Good Samaritan

"The Mujahideen carried out a meticulous vetting process at the mall and have taken every possible precaution to separate the Muslims from the Kuffar before carrying out their attack," Al-Shabaab said in an email exchange with The Associated Press. – From USA Today

"Men, women and children were lined up and then gunned down with AK-47s after failing to name the Prophet Mohammed's mother or recite passages from the Koran – sure-fire proof they were 'kafirs', or non-believers." – From the Daily Mail

"Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah ; and those with him are forceful against the disbelievers, merciful among themselves." – Koran 48:29


"Do not take Jews and Christians as friends." -- numerous verses; see them here.

***

Behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?"

He said to him, "What is written in the law? How do you read it?"

He answered, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, with all your mind, and your neighbour as yourself."

He said to him, "You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live."

But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, "Who is my neighbour?"

Jesus answered,

"A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side.

But a certain Samaritan, as he travelled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion, came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, and gave them to the host, and said to him, 'Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.' Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbour to him who fell among the robbers?"

He said, "He who showed mercy on him."

Then Jesus said to him, "Go and do likewise."

Jesus is why I am a Christian.

Yes, it must be stated daily: most Muslims are not terrorists and are good people.

Al-Shabaab is a terrorist group. They do kill. They do cite the Koran to support their murders.

This must be addressed.
