Story of terror lost amid other news

While the U.S. media, including the Daily Herald, has focused recently on immigration and the Ferguson, Mo., grand jury, a story of utter horror and terror has been all but ignored. I refer to the massacre of 28 non-Muslim Kenyans, shot in the head one by one by the extremist Islamic group al-Shabab. This story ran on Page 13 of the Nov. 23 edition.

Solely because these Kenyans were Christian and not Muslim, they were singled out, pulled off a bus and murdered in the same fashion that the Gestapo murdered Jews during World War II. I believe WWIII is now upon us, heaven forbid.
