A triple suicide bombing at a market on an island in Lake Chad on Saturday killed at least 27 people and injured 90 others, said security officials.

The three explosions on Koulfoua were carried out by females, said Chad police spokesman Paul Manga.

Nigeria's Islamic extremist group Boko Haram is suspected, according to Chad's director general of the gendarmerie, Gen. Banyaman Cossingar.

Islamists like ISIS and Boko Haram are a serious threat worldwide.

The DUmmies will invariably blame Bush, Cheney,  Reagan and/or the "rabid right" for this attack .

Other than, possibly, having a more or less functioning government, what has Chad done to earn Boko Haram's ire?

And when BHO came back from the golf course to be briefed on this, did the people doing the briefing have to tell BHO in which continent Chad is located?

When informed about Chad, Obama said he thought a black man named Chad was left hanging in Florida by George W. Bush.

According to Wiki, Chad is 55 percent Muslim, but mainly a Sufi Muslim country (ostensibly, moderate).  Roman Catholics are the next largest religious group.  The southern past of Chad supposedly has a billion barrels of oil reserves, as well.

I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed, a democracy in a republic, a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect union, one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes. I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it, to support its Constitution, to obey its laws, to respect its flag, and to defend it against all enemies.
