Compass Direct News (excerpts):  Islamic Extremists in Somalia behead 17-year-old Christian.  Al Shabaab militants monitored home Bible studies of boy's family.  

Nairobi, Kenya, October 19 (CDN):  Militants from the Islamic extremist al Shabaab beheaded a 17-year-old Somali Christian near Mogadishu last month, a journalist in the Somali capital told Compass.  The militants, who have vowed to rid Somalia of Christianity, killed Guled Jama Muktar on September 25 in his home near Deynile, about 20 kilometers (12 miles) from Mogadishu.  The Islamic extremist group had been monitoring his family since the Christians arrived in Somalia from Kenya in 2008, said the source in Mogadishu, who requested anonymity.  The Islamic militants, who are fighting the transitional government for control of the country, knew from their observations of the family that they were Christians, the source said.  "I personally know this family as Christians, who used to have secret Bible meetings in their house," he said.  Based on talks with the boy's parents and their neighbors, the source said al Shabaab members arrived at Muktar's home at 6 am, when his parents, whose names are withheld for security reasons, were already at work at their retail space at the Harmarweyne market on the outskirts of Mogadishu.  The extremists found Muktar as he was preparing to go to school, he said.  The neighbors heard screaming coming from the house, and then it immediately stopped, the source said.  After a while, they saw a white car leaving the homestead.  The neighbors informed the parents, who hurriedly returned home from their market stall.  They buried their son's body quickly, fearing the militants would kill them as well, returned to their market space and then fled to an unknown destination, the source said.  When the incident happened, the parents called to tell me that their son had been killed and that they feared for their lives, the source said.  "Since then, I have not heard from them."  

On the outskirts of Hudur City in Bakool region in southwestern Somalia, a kidnapped Christian convert from Islam, was found decapitated on September 2.  Juma Nuradin Kamil was forced into a car by three suspected Islamic extremists from the al Shabaab terrorist group on August 21, area sources said.  After members of his community thoroughly combed the area looking for him, one of them found Kamil's body at 2 pm on September 2, dumped on a street.  A Christian who saw Kamil's body said it bore the marks of an al Shabaab killing, according to a leader in Somalia's underground church who lives in another city.  With estimates of al Shabaab's size ranging from 3,000 - 7,000, the insurgents seek to impose a strict version of sharia (Islamic law), but the government in Mogadishu fighting to retain control of the country treats Christians little better than the al Shabaab extremists do.  While proclaiming himself a moderate, President Shiekh Sharif Sheik Ahmed has embraced a version of sharia that mandates the death penalty for those who leave Islam.

Commentary:  Muslims beheaded a 9-YEAR-OLD child and his family in Somalia.  The article is located on Jihadwatch.com.  I didn't open it, because it includes graphics and quite frankly, my nerves can't stand it, especially when such a heinous act is committed against an innocent child.  I posted an article on this site dated 10/19/11 "Obama Chases Down A 'Christian' Militant..." and I think you will find that very interesting reading.  In summary, these militant Muslims are beheading people all over the place, especially in Africa (and they don't just quickly slice the head off with a sharpened sword - they slowly saw the head off with a blade to enhance pain and suffering), and they are blocking water and food from aid groups to the starving in Ethiopia and Kenya; but once again, President Obama is sending US troops to hunt down a "Christian" militant in Central Africa.  Mind you, the "Christian" militant is not cutting people's heads off viciously, nor is he blocking water and food to the dying, but President Barack Hussein Obama (a Muslim by the way) has gone chasing after a rouge "Christian" militant somewhere in Central Africa.  Getting back on topic, these vicious dogs have posted videos on the internet of their 12-year-old Muslim child militant cutting a man's head off, which they are very proud to show you.  These Muslim children are taught how to viciously cut people's heads off who don't worship the same god as they do from a very small child; how sick is that!  "Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision" Philippians 3:2.  "It is a shame even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret" Ephesians 5:12.
