We Should Be So Lucky

It is reported that almost 150 people are dead in Kenya as the result of an Al Qaeda terrorist attack.

A security operation is over and 147 people have been killed in an attack Thursday by Al Qaeda-linked terror group Al-Shabaab on a Kenyan college, officials said.

The officials said four attackers were killed during the operation.

The siege on Garissa University also left dozens more injured and hundreds of students unaccounted for.

Hours after the assault began, Kenyan security forces cornered the gunmen in a dormitory at the school, and President Uhuru Kenyatta said in a speech to the nation that the attackers were holding hostages.

"There are many dead bodies of Christians inside the building," Al-Shabaab spokesman Sheikh Abdiasis Abu Musab told Sky News. "We are also holding many Christians alive. Fighting still goes on inside the college."

President Obama has made plans to visit Kenya soon.

Does Al Qaeda take requests?

Obama's Homecoming

Vowing to leave no golf course unparred until he secures world peace, Barack Obama will return to Kenya for the Nairobi Tournament of Champions. The grand prize will be announced as soon as they can scare up a virgin and two goats.

Washington - Barack Obama will make a long-awaited trip to Kenya later this year, visiting his father's homeland for the first time since becoming US president six years ago, the White House said on Monday.

During the long-promised visit this July, Obama will attend a Global Entrepreneurship Summit in the east African nation, a statement said.

Obama has visited Africa four times since becoming president, but has not visited the country where he still has relatives.

He owes them money.
