The people who should be mentoring these youth in the ways of good citizenship have for long pretended to be blind to the dangerous militancy that is being preached in known Mombasa mosques.

Where were these community mentors when mosques like Sakina and Musa were being taken over by extremists? How come mainstream voices like Supkem have been reduced to bystanders by these hotheads? We can excuse community leaders when one or two terrorists operate below their radar.

But when one, two, three and more mosques are systematically and forcibly taken over by wild-eyed enthusiasts of Al-Shabaab and Al-Qaeda, we must acknowledge there is a very, very serious communal crisis, and one that cannot be papered over with reflexive arguments about Muslims being “profiled” or the government being “anti-Islam.”

I don't need to add anything... This government is the most cowardice I have ever seen! If the suspect was a criminal, why don't you take him to court? It only means one thing, hidden agenda by the killers.

court for what? as soon as they are released on bale they head to the streets targeting innocent people. They should be shot on sight.
