Five Suicide Bombings Target Chad, Killing Over 40 People - Boko Haram Blamed.

Boko Haram cell in Chad

With all the attention focused on Syria, Yemen and Ukraine we tend to overlook that nasty little war against Islamic Extremists Boko Haram in central Africa. But if you are a gambler we'd suggest that now Vladimir Putin has tired of Saudi Arabian puppet Barack Obama pussyfooting around in Syria and has taken it upon himself to kick the collective arse of ISIS, Al Nusra and Al Qaeda, the min theatre of the war against extremism will move to Africa.

Could this be the beginning?

Chad (sources: Associated Press, Agencie Presse France) — A village in Chad, one of the world's poorest nations, was targeted by terrorists on Saturday. The village in a region of Chad that is home to thousands of Nigerian refugees forced to flee from their homes by the brutal violence of Islamic extremist group Boko Haram, was devastated by at leat five sucicide bombing attacks which killed at least 36 people and left about 50 others wounded. Officials said the attacks appeared to be coordinated.

Authorities in Chad have blamed extremists from neighboring Nigeria for staging the attacks in the western village of Baga Sola. A communique from government spokesman Hassan Sylla Bakari claimed at least 41 people had died, including the five suicide bombers who were identified as two women, two children and a man. Some of the wounded are in a critical condition and are not expected to survive.

A group of suicide bombers, all thought to be female, hit the market in Baga Sola at its busiest time on Saturday, killing at least 16 people, the head of Chad's gendarmerie, Gen. Banyaman Cossingar said. A second group of suicide bombers killed at least 22 people at a nearby refugee camp, he said, although the final death toll from that attack is not known.

There were conflicting reports on the number of wounded. The government's official count was 48, while UNICEF said at least 53 people were wounded, including 14 children. Police spokesman Paul Manka said the attackers staged five bombings, adding that two were near the refugee camp but not in it. News agencies in Africa, prinicipally associated Press and Agencie Presse France said it was not immediately possible to independently verify the differing claims due to the extremely remote location of the attacks.

For months, Baga Sola has been home to thousands of people who already had fled deadly Boko Haram attacks in Nigeria. The U.N. says the Dar-es-Salam camp now has just over 3,000 refugees, and can house up to 15,000. The village is in the Lake Chad region near the border with Nigeria, where Boko Haram first launched its insurgency six years ago. Amnesty International says the uprising has killed 20,000 people. While Boko Haram has attacked Chad's capital before, the bombings on Saturday appear to be the largest and most elaborate staged yet in the country's lake region.

The Revolution Is Spreading: Now Austria Turns Against The Anti - White Leftist Elite

Migrants in Vienna have blocked railway stations and roads, demanding transport to Germany

With Sweden's coalition of opponents, formed to deny a place in government to the anti - immigration, pro - Swedish culture party The Sweden Democrats a place in government that was their democratic right, with France's Front National, led by Marine Le Pen topping polls and other parties opposed to mass immigration and the destruction of European culture riding high elsewhere, Austria has become the latest nation where voters have turned their backs on the consensus politics of Cultural Marxism.

The Austrian Freedom Party (FPO) which strongly opposes the mass migration engineered by the EU and supported by all European integrationist leaders appear to be on the verge of winning control of the municipal authority of Vienna, a city which has consistently voted socialist since the end of World War 2.

With citizens' concerns about the influx of Muslim migrants and its long term consequences growing, Viennese voters are turning to the FPO en masse. In latest polls the party is now only one point behind the city’s governing socialist democrats, within pollsters margin of error.

FPO leader Heinz-Christian Strache addressing a rally of FPO supporters outside St Stephen’s Cathedral on Thursday said: "Let’s roll up our sleeves and do this, out of love for our home town, out of love for the people of this city! We will succeed, I can feel it."

In the last round of elections, five years ago, the FPO was over 18 points behind the victorious socialists. Now they are statistically even, with the momentum of anger at the unchecked arrival of illegal immigrants behind them, raising the possibility they could find themselves in control of Vienna's city government. Even if the FPO emerge as the largest party however, the socialists are likely to try to form a coalition of opposites as happened in Sweden, to make sure the status quo is preserved. Such is the contempt of the political elite for democracy, constitutional law and the people.

Whatever happens in Vienna's City Hall, a strong performance by the FPO would shake the foundations of Austria’s political establishment, with Vienna typically regarded as being so left wing and politically correct that it has often been referred to as Europe's “red city”. Unfortunately being left wing does not buy Viennese women any indulgences with Muslim extremists, if in town alone they are still considered prostitutes and impure women who deserve to be raped.

One Viennese FPO supporter told The Local she had not been able to find a “real job” for the past four years. She explained why she was voting for Strache: “This time we stand a chance of being heard. People realise that the real defender of workers’ rights is him.”

More than 200,000 people passed through Austria last month, forcing the country to reinstate border controls along with Germany, Slovakia and the Netherlands.

In June 2015, the FPO joined with France's Front National and the Dutch Freedom Party to form the Europe of Nations and Freedom group in the European Parliament.
