Nigeria: Islamic jihadists murder 38 in raid on Christian village

Jul 16, 2014 1:47 pm By Robert Spencer

Shekau3Abubakar Shekau, the leader of the Congregation of the People of the Sunnah for Dawah and Jihad, aka Boko Haram, knows that Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan can do nothing to stop his jihad group, which has enjoyed the support of Nigerian generals, and revels in the knowledge.

“Up to 38 killed in raid on Nigerian village,” AFP, July 15, 2014:

KANO – At least 38 people were killed following a raid by suspected Islamist Boko Haram gunmen on a village in northeast Nigeria and a military aerial bombardment of fleeing residents mistaken for insurgents, villagers said Monday.

The attack on the Christian farming village of Dille in Askira Uba district, 200 kilometres from regional capital Maiduguri late Sunday through Monday, burnt the entire village including three churches, they said.

Dozens of gunmen in all-terrain vehicles and on motorcycles stormed the village from the nearby Sambisa forest where the insurgents maintain camps, firing indiscriminately and throwing grenades and explosives into homes.

We lost 38 people in Boko Haram attacks and bombardments by a military jet on innocent residents fleeing the village.

The attack, which sent residents fleeing into the bush followed an earlier raid on Buttuku village in neighbouring Adamawa state, said resident Michael Umaru Jar.

“We lost 38 people in Boko Haram attacks and bombardments by a military jet on innocent residents fleeing the village,” Jar said.

“The Boko Haram gunmen came around 11pm on Sunday and opened fire on the village with guns, rocket-propelled grenades and explosives,” said Jar who fled to Lassa village, seven kilometres away.

Locals went into the bush where they passed the night but when they tried to return to their homes Monday morning, the attackers opened fire on them from hills overlooking the village where they had taken cover, said another resident, John Buba….

    Why isn’t the world doing anything to eradicate these Islamic jihadi genocidal murderers? What will take the non-Muslim world to do anything. At this point the non-Muslim world is nothing but coward hypocrites who do not try to save the weak and are just as bad as the the so called moderate Muslims who also do nothing but keep talking nonsense about how peaceful Islam is!! Islam is showing and has shown for last 1400 years how peaceful it is!!

      The Nigerian military is riddled with Muslim Fifth Columnists.

      If the Christians and other non-Muslims in Nigeria wish to survive, they are going to have to go on the internet, if they can, and do everything they can to find out about the Haganah, and about the Palmach, and about Orde Wingate and his Special Night Squads…and also how he organised his Gideon Force in Ethiopia.

      They are going to have to organise *themselves*, village by village, congregations in each village getting together.

      And at some point the non-Muslims who *are* in the Nigerian military and the police are going to have to face the reality that they *cannot trust* ANY of their identifiably-Muslim colleagues, to protect non-Muslims from Jihad.

    A well placed Hellfire missile would wipe the smile off this clown’s face.

    Islamist plus psychopath—a deadly combination. Why is there not a price on his head? Surely a drone could take him out?

      Absolutely Liza. We have a base full of USAF drones in Djibouti, a short flight away.

      Just waiting for Commander-in-Chief Obama’s word.

    I don’t know what these “villages” look like; but one thing that I would do if I were responsible for their safety is to cut/burn the forest back and create a 500 yard “kill zone” that would give the village time to kill the Boko Haram savages BEFORE they get to the villages – assuming of course that the villages have some sort of an armed militia presence. Watchtowers, concertina wire and claymores also not a bad idea. The idea that these “villages” and the people in them are like FOBs in enemy territory is closer to the truth than most realize. (Yes, they need to be MUCH more than just “defensive”. This is just a start.)

    The non-muzlim people in these “villages” had better start getting serious about their own defense, because it is obvious that BadLuck Johnathan and the muzlim-infiltrated military will not.

      The same thing he’s doing about every other foreign policy crisis. Absolutely nothing. Might interfere with his tee times.
