Boko Haram Islamic militants storm Nigeria boarding school, kill 29 children<\/span><\/h1>\n

DAMATURU, Nigeria — <\/b>Gunmen from Islamist group Boko Haram stormed a boarding school in northeast Nigeria overnight and killed 29 pupils, many of whom died in flames as the school was burned to the ground, police and the military said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Some of the students bodies were burned to ashes,\u00c3\u00a2\u00e2\u201a\u00ac\u009d Police Commissioner Sanusi Rufai said of the attack on the Federal Government college of Buni Yadi, a secondary school in Yobe state, near the state’s capital city of Damaturu.<\/p>\n

Female students were spared in the attack, said spokesman Abdullahi Bego. The attackers went to the female dormitories and told the young women to go home, get married and abandon the Western education they said is anathema to Islam, he said. He was relating to The Associated Press what survivors and community leaders told Gov. Ibrahim Gaidam when he visited the now-deserted and destroyed Federal Government College at Buni Yadi, a secondary school 45 miles south of the state capital, Damaturu..<\/p>\n

Soldiers guarding a checkpoint near the government school were mysteriously withdrawn hours before the attack, said Abdullahi Bego, the spokesman for the governor of Yobe state….<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Remember: when you hear Leftists and Islamic supremacists going on about \u201cIslamophobia,\u201d demonizing those who call attention to atrocities like this, this is what they are enabling: students burned alive, and having their throats slit when they tried to escape. This is, apparently, what the \u201cIslamophobia\u201d industry \u2013 the real one that pushes the concept, not the counter-jihad one that Hamas-linked CAIR imagines to exist \u2013 wants to see: heaps of dead Infidel bodies….<\/p>\n
