Throes Of Religious Extremism!

Ohhh dear, when will these baseless killings stop??
Security has been beefed in Somalia capital city, Mogadishu, where no fewer than so far, 25 people lost their lives in attacks, when al-Shabab group Friday night February 26, engaged about an hour of automatic gunfire on unsuspecting people from 7:45 pm (1645 GMT), on SYL Hotel and a nearby Peace Garden.
Authorities revealed that at least five militants from the Islamist extremist group were also killed in the attacks which each involved suicide car bombers.
The al-Shebab group fighting to overthrow the 22,000 African Union troops protected and internationally-backed government in Mogadishu....



...like its sister groups: Isis and al-Qaeda groups operating in the Middle East, Hezbollah group,  Boko-haram in Nigeria,  and countless others springing up by the day to back up heinous crimes against humanity with mis-translated verses from the Holy book, is clearly all about the struggle for power, over who controls what...

My question is, since government is all about control over territories which boils down to people, for without the people, there will be no government; when these people are senselessly killed on a daily basis, who will be left to be governed???

If there is an iota of care for the people whom you kill to govern, there should equally be ways to go about arriving at a non-violent resolution. Resolving to violence at the slightest provocation is inhumane, barbaric and totally unacceptable. 




Most of all, the part I love to think about is, after all the terrorism, killings, making orphans out of children, making forceful widows out of women, forceful widowers out of men, turning a beautiful world into a nightmare for many...


...forcing people to flee their homes and all they labored for and making them live under unthinkable situations in foreign lands, depriving people of their sources of joy and comfort...


When you...yes you the terrorist finally dies....because death, which you force upon others, interestingly is inevitable for every one...how will you face your maker? I just wonder, if you have stopped to think about this reality...
