Somalia is one of the countries who’s citizens are banned from entering the United States. Maybe, just maybe, liberals will admit that this is a smart move on the part of U.S. intelligence, especially since the same action was taken under the Obama administration. But odds are that the Left-Tards won’t see it this way. They will continue to tell you that Trump is a racist.
Killing people for playing music during religious ceremonies; sounds perfectly reasonable doesn’t it? Sure, Islam always gets a free ride with liberals. TGO

NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — Somalia was hit by two violent attacks Monday, one killing an Islamic cleric and 17 of his followers for playing music and a second killing at least six people in a car bomb blast in the capital, Mogadishu, police said.
The car bomb was detonated Monday at a busy junction in Mogadishu’s Wadajir district, said Capt. Mohamed Hussein. He said 15 people were injured and the blast appears to have been aimed at soldiers who were gathered at the junction.
In the northern city of Galkayo, a prominent Islamic leader and at least 17 of his followers were killed by extremists for having music in their religious ceremonies, say police.
Two suicide bombers exploded in front of the preacher’s residence, which is also a Sufi shrine, and then four gunmen stormed the building and opened fire, said Ahmed Awale, a police officer in Galkayo. At least 20 others were injured, he said.
Somali security forces responded and there was a battle with heavy gunfire in the building. Three attackers were killed in the shootout and one was captured alive, said Awale.
Somalia’s extremist rebels, al-Shabab, have claimed responsibility for the attack in Galkayo.
The attack killed Sheikh Abdiweli Ali Elmi, who has hundreds of followers and has been controversial because videos show him and his followers chanting religious poems with music, which some extremists say is not Islamic. Sheikh Elmi had defended his actions, saying music is not contrary to Islamic teachings.
