Kenyan officials have confirmed the death toll in the Islamic terrorist attack on Garissa University has reached 147.

Witnesses say that the terrorists appear to have had excessive planning because the first place targeted was a lecture hall where Christians would meet for early morning prayers.

“They investigated our area. They knew everything,” Helen Titus told The Associated Press at a hospital in Garissa where she was being treated for a bullet wound to the wrist.  Titus said she put her classmate’s blood and hair on her face and laid still to make the attackers believe she was dead.

The terrorists also called for studnets to come out, saying they would not kill women.  They shot men on site if they said they were not Muslim.

The terrorists confirmed they were targeting Christians.

“We sorted people out and released the Muslims,” Sheikh Abdiasis Abu Musab, the spokesman for the group Al-Shabaab, which took responsibility for the armed assault, announced. “There are many dead bodies of Christians inside the building.”
