| [DAWN] THE attack took place in one of the busiest areas of Istanbul. On Jan 6, 2015 a woman in a niqab blew herself up at a cop shoppe in Istanbuls historic Sultanahmet district, killing one officer and injuring another. So far, it is not known which group was responsible or who the woman was. Witnesses said she spoke in English with a heavy accent but little else is known about her only that she was one of an increasing number of women joining bully boy organizations and being used to carry out terror attacks. On Sunday, Jan 11, 2014 two female jacket wallahs from the Nigerian group Boko Haram ... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... blew themselves up in a market in north-eastern Nigeria killing at least four people and injuring dozens. This attack came the day after a similar bombing, in which an bomb was attached to a girl reportedly 10 years old. That attack also killed at least 20 people. |
