America Drops Its Largest Non-Nuclear Bomb On ISIS In Afghanistan (First Time Used In Combat)

The United States has reportedly dropped its largest non-nuclear bomb in an area of Afghanistan filled with ISIS militants.

The Independent, citing the Pentagon, states that this is the first time the 21,000-pound weapon was used in combat.

Nicknamed the MOAB – “mother of all bombs” – the bomb was reportedly dropped after 7 pm local time.

According to CNN, military sources say the target was “an ISIS tunnel and cave complex.”

“At 7:32 pm local time today, U.S. Forces – Afghanistan conducted a strike on an ISIS-K tunnel complex in Achin district, Nangarhar province, Afghanistan, as part of ongoing efforts to defeat ISIS-K in Afghanistan in 2017,” said US Central Command in a statement, according to Business Insider.

“The strike was designed to minimize the risk to Afghan and U.S. Forces conducting clearing operations in the area while maximizing the destruction of ISIS-K fighters and facilities.”

U.S. officials reportedly did their best to avoid casualties. But given the scope of the MOAB, damage to the surrounding areas will be extensive.

Al Masdar News, citing the Syrian Ministry of Defense, says hundreds of militants have died in the attack.

Sanusi Slams Conservative Muslims, Says They Are The Cause Of Northerners Begging In Nigeria

The Emir of Kano and former Central Bank governor (CBN), Emir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, on his instagram page, has said that he is upset at legion of beggars on the streets in Nigeria and mostly in the north.

This came as he called on northerners to emulate southern economic ways of life rather being idle. Most of the beggars roaming Nigerian streets are northerners, begging for a living while their Southern counterparts learn trade and become technicians, contributing economically and socially to the development of Nigeria, Emir said.

He slammed the conservatives Muslims whom he said are harming Islam through their refusal to expand their knowledge outside their own religion and failure to realize that knowledge is power.

He said Northern political leaders like Governor Yari should pay attention to him, there will never be a day when anywhere in the North will be like the modern Muslim cities of Kuala Lumpar, Istanbul, Jakarta, Lahore, Greater Cairo, Dacca, Karachi, Dubai, Riyadh or Faisalabad. Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, the Emir of Kano However, Sanusi charged Northern leaders to hearken to his voice and opinions towards the development of the Northern region.

“I choose to fight for the progress of Nigerians and suggest solutions to their problems. “It’s my duty to speak the truth about the ill-effects of conservative Muslims who are harming Islam rather than helping it.

“I condemned their refusal to expand their knowledge outside their own religion and failure to realize that knowledge is power. “I also correctly concluded denying the right to pursue scientific and technological knowledge and restricting people to Islamic knowledge is the best means of ensuring that Muslims in Northern Nigeria will remain economically backward.

“I’m upset at the legion of beggars on the streets and is trying to bridge the gap between the backward North and the Southern parts of the nation. “I still believe that conservative Muslims are still stuck in the 13th Century and their claim that children need no other knowledge than Islamic studies flies in the face of reality. “All the poverty, under-development and immense suffering in the North are a result of uneducated masses refusing to learn work or a trade.

“The majority of technicians in Kano are from the South while untrained indigenes beg. How does that make sense? “Why is it that conservative Muslims who claim to be against scientific progress enter aeroplanes and fly to perform the Hajj in Mecca rather than using camels to cross the desert! Why do they watch sermons beamed by TV live from Mecca and read the Holy Quaran on their laptops yet profess to abhor modern technology? “I’d like to point out that there is no harm in copying from the West if it brings succour to the masses of poverty stricken Muslims in Northern Nigeria.

“After all Saudi Arabia, the “home” of Islam is known for its highly-rated airline, modern hospitals, indigenous oil industry and space program all of which make it a world leader. ‘Northern political leaders like Governor Yari pay attention to me, there will never be a day when anywhere in the North will be like the modern Muslim cities of Kuala Lumpar, Istanbul, Jakarta, Lahore, Greater Cairo, Dacca, Karachi, Dubai, Riyadh or Faisalabad.’

So Sad! 7-Month Old Girl Defiled By Her 57 Year Old Step Father In Katsina State Has Died (Photos)

The 7-month old girl who was raped by her 57 year old stepfather, Magaji Dansale, in Katsina state last month, has died. She died at the Turai Yar’Adua hospital today.

Recall that Magaji who is currently in police custody, raped the little girl at his home in Marmachi village of Musawa Local Government Area, Katsina State.
He told newsmen that he had canal knowledge of the little girl because he believed he would become rich once he sleeps with an infant

Previous Report:

When asked why he chose the step daughter instead of his biological daughter, Dansale said, “She is also my child, I just don’t know how it happened. I regret my action and want to plead for leniency.”

The girl’s mother, 25-year-old Zinnai Muntari, said when she woke up for the morning prayers and saw blood on the private part of the baby, her husband asked her to bring the child and after observing her, said it was pile and hurried out to bring some herbs to use on her.

“As a mother, I felt this was unusual and reached out for help at the General Hospital Malumfashi where the doctor confirmed it was a forceful entry that tore the vagina up to the anus.

“They later referred us to the Umar Turai Children and Maternity Hospital in Katsina,” she said.

The girl’s biological father, Ibrahim Nuhu, said there was no going back until justice is served.

“All I want now is to save the life of my daughter and for justice to take its course to serve as deterrent to others,” he said.

The state Commissioner of Police, Usman Abdullahi, described the matter as “disheartening and very pathetic”.

“We suspect that the woman was drugged, for how come with probably all the screaming of the baby the mother couldn’t wake up?

“I assure you, we will charge him to court to get the case to its logical conclusion.

“It is worrisome for Katsina, the rise in rape cases is alarming. Last year alone, over 110 cases of rape were handled”.

Lady Creates An “Anger Room” Where People Pay $500 To Express Their Anger Towards Donald Trump

For, ever since Trump was elected President in November, the former restaurant marketing manager has seen a “yuge” surge in her business. Donna, 31, is the owner of the Anger Room, where America’s despair, pent-up emotion, exasperation and rage towards Trump are all being tackled – with the help of a baseball bat. .

She charges $25 for five minutes of smashing up TVs, sofas, desks, computers, potted plants, old videos, printers, pictures and any other item asked for. Prices rise to about $500 for custom room set-ups, with the most expensive scene so far being a replica of the Oval Office, with a Trump mannequin sat at the desk. .

“Forget Donald Trump’s pledge to make America great again,” says Donna, “he’s made America hate again – the bookings have gone through the roof. “I know the President has spoken about wanting to make American businesses succeed, but he helped mine long before his inauguration.

“There is no fake news or anyone with a fake fuse here. The anger is very real. People leave here feeling a whole lot better, having whacked the hell out of something. It’s like therapy to them.”

Despite being based in a staunchly Republican state, anyone doubting the anger felt toward the President need only take a quick glance at the warehouse’s graffiti to see how some locals feel.

Customers can choose from a whole variety of tools to use, including lump hammers, two-by-fours, table legs, crowbars and even crutches.
