With its base in Somalia and links to al-Qaeda, al-Shabab has carried out several attacks against neighboring Kenya that has made the militant group a potent threat in the region. NewsHour special correspondent Martin Seemungal reports from East Africa with an in-depth look at the roots of al-Shabab's conflict with Kenya.
It has been two months since al-Shabab Islamic militants targeted the university in Garissa, Kenya. A nation made up of more than 80 percent Christians, it was the Christians that the Islamic militants were after, sparing the lives of students they believed to be Muslims.
Cedric Barnes is the Director of the International Crisis Group in Nairobi and an expert on al-Shabab.
