Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Islamic State in Nigeria murders nearly 200 in 48 hours

Jul 4, 2015 3:59 pm By Robert Spencer

CHAD-UNREST-BOKOHARAMSavages doing service to their bloodthirsty god. Boko Haram pledged allegiance to the Islamic State several months ago.

“Boko Haram kills nearly 200 in 48 hours – Militants unleash female suicide bombers North East Nigeria,” AFP, July 4, 2015:

KANO: Boko Haram carried out a fresh wave of massacres in northeastern Nigeria on Friday, locals said, killing nearly 200 people in 48 hours of violence President Muhammadu Buhari blasted as “inhuman and barbaric”. The militants have staged multiple attacks across restive Borno state since Wednesday, gunning down worshippers at evening Ramadan prayers, shooting women in their homes, and dragging men from their beds in the dead of night.

A young female suicide bomber also killed 12 worshippers when she blew herself up in a mosque in Borno. While there was no immediate claim of responsibility, Boko Haram has used both men and young women and girls as human bombs in the past. And as night fell, Nigerian troops battled “hordes of Boko Haram gunmen” who seemed set on attacking the state capital Maiduguri, the birthplace of the extremist Islamist movement.

“President Muhammadu Buhari has condemned the latest wave of killings… describing them as most inhuman and barbaric,” the presidency said in a statement. The bloodshed is the worst since Buhari came to power in May, vowing to root out the insurgency that has claimed more than 15,000 lives. Up to 50 armed men on motorbikes stormed the village of Mussa in the latest atrocity on Friday, shooting villagers and burning their homes, survivor Bitrus Dangana said. “They killed six people in the village and they chased the inhabitants into the bush, firing at them… 25 people were killed in the bush,” he said. Another survivor, Adamu Bulus, confirmed 31 people had been murdered. It was the fourth time that Boko Haram had attacked the village in the past year, local youth worker Sunday Wabba told AFP, describing how they “killed everyone on sight”….

      Obama has set his sights on the greatest enemy the world has ever met: global coo… warm…, erm, climate change. What’s an islamic state and persecution of religious minorities compared to that?

    ! ! ! ! ! A FRIENDLY SHOUT OF INDEPENDENCE DAY GREETING TO MY FAVORITE WORSHIPPERS OF ALLAH — KEITH ELLISON AND ANDRE CARSON. ! ! ! ! !

    Don’t bother to humbly deny that both of you have found a way to read every post here at Jihad Watch —diverting time away from grateful prayers about Jihad Slaughter — AND STILL REMAIN PLEASERS OF MUHAMMAD’S GOD.

    By the way, there is a new detergent at WalMart that supposedly can remove Infidel blood from those fine Capitol Hill suit trousers you wear even if it has dried after months of relentless drenching. Your colleagues in the House are beginning to get a bit sarcastic on the situation, if you know what I mean..

      P.S. — I just called WalMart corporate headquarters : their chemists added Jinn Juice to the formula and it now will vanish Ramadan mosque-goer hemoglobin too. Who said that Islam is hostile to modern science? Lie, lie, lie !

      “By the way, there is a new detergent at WalMart that supposedly can remove Infidel blood from those fine Capitol Hill suit trousers”

      Only thing wrong with your post, jihad3tracker, is that if you read the article carefully, you’ll see that most of the victims of the latest massacres are Muslim: “The militants have staged multiple attacks across restive Borno state since Wednesday, gunning down worshippers at evening Ramadan prayers”

      There’s really not much to say about the unspeakable savagery of Boko Haram, or ISIS, except that the most plain conclusion of a rational person is we want none of those people here: I mean any of the people in the region at all, especially any of the Muslims. What seems to be happening is that Muslims slaughter Muslims, and the losers claim refugee status in the US or other Western countries. The religious profile of the losers is not that different from the winners, so we can look forward to arbitrary violence, religious hatred, and Islamic fanaticism in all communities forced to accept refugees.

      This is not terribly complex logic, but seems absolutely beyond the comprehension of most news media, legislators, and voters. Once Islam comes, I don’t see a viable way of rooting it out, except perhaps in the mode of the Spanish Reconquista and the Inquisition, which was actually instituted to eliminate the Muslim fifth-columnists who claimed to be Christian. And I’m fully aware of the persecution of the Jewish Conversos, who kind of got caught in the middle.

        Yes, RonaldB — Muslim on Muslim (Sunni versus Shia killing) is addressed in my 4:53 addendum, above.

        In occasional comments for MSN’s weekly posts about Islam’s pathology when yet another episode of carnage happens, I say “If Muslims do this to THEIR OWN FAITHFUL BELIEVERS, what do you think they can do to Infidels.”

        NPR did a sob story about a Somali who fan-dangled a US Visa after first going to Kenya where he was indignant because Kenyan’s looked at him suspiciously when he traveled on a bus with a backpack. Although his papers where initially rejected by a sympathetic official because they had no signatures and his and his story implausible NPR proudly tooted their horn for assisting him to bypass the Visa process.

    Most likely the female suicide bombers are the girls who were kidnapped by Boko Haram a few months ago. Anyone remember Mooshelle’s hashtag? Very effective (not)!

    OK, so we’ll all wait for the useful idiots (Cameron, etc.) to come out with the usual ‘This is not Islam’ claptrap, then someone can remind them that the illustrious founder of the Great Religion of Peace’ is reputed on one occasion to have polished off at least THREE TIMES the number in this story, and within ONE DAY (half the time?). And, as I heard somewhere else, he’s supposed to have ordered in extra lanterns so that he could carry on after the sun had gone down. What a lovely person!

    Birth control, haram. Mass murder, halal. They have their alternative.

    Unless there is a huge massacre of kaffurs, perhaps 300,000 the wimpy Western politicians and media will not react. It would also have to be in a place like NY or Paris to have receive a real response. They could kill a million in NIgeria and the hypcritical Western politicians would continue with the big lie about the “religion of peace”.
