The new leader of Boko Haram, just appointed by the Islamic State, has vowed to end his attacks on fellow Muslims regarded by the group as infidels, and instead focus on Christians. Abu Musab al-Barnawi, who replaces Abubakar Shekau, has accused the West of trying to “Christianize the region” and says he will “blow up every Church” and “kill every Christian.”
Meanwhile, Shekau, who in March 2015 pledged allegiance to Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, has released a recorded message crying foul over the new appointment, but vowed to “continue in the cause of Allah” to destroy the infidel….
“We are still in the cause of Allah and will never depart in the struggle to establish an Islamic caliphate and standing by Islam. We will continue to work for the cause of Allah no going back. Anyone that caused this, no problem, if it’s possible may Allah show him the correct path and if it is not so may Allah protect us from his mischief…no matter what we have our basis in Quran. No matter what they call us, what we aspire is to justify our ideology in the Quran which is ultimate because we have not derailed. We are on and in the future, we will not accept any emissary except the one we can attest he is sincere and truthful for Allah and His cause.”
Abu Musab al-Barnawi’s new focus on murdering Christians and destroying churches represents a major shift in strategy, as Boko Haram has killed far more Muslims than Christians since the election of Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, whom Boko Haram regarded as an infidel; it has been going after every Muslim who voted for him. Buhari made it his priority to destroy the jihadist group and encouraged neighboring countries to join in his counter-terrorism efforts.
Immediately after the inauguration of Buhari in May 2015, a Boko Haram suicide bomber denoted inside a mosque near a central marketplace, leveling the site and killing 26 worshippers. The weeks following saw heavily populated Muslim areas attacked, and toward the end of Ramadan on July 3 came the most brutal attack. 150 Muslim worshippers were killed in mosques, and Boko Haram extended its brutal rampage by murdering Muslim men, women and children in their homes and burning down houses.
Under new leader al-Barnawi, Boko Haram is now bringing in new recruits in a redirected anti-Christian war that he describes as one being “fought by Muslims against ‘apostates’ and ‘crusaders.'”
“Will blow up every church, kill all Christians: Boko Haram’s new leader, announced by ISIS”, by Yashaswani Sehrawat, India Today, August 4, 2016:
Nigeria’s Boko Haram Islamic extremists have a new leader who is threatening to bomb churches and kill Christians while ending attacks on mosques and markets used by ordinary Muslims, according to an interview published Wednesday by the Islamic State group.
He also says there is a Western plot to Christianize the region and has accused charities of using their aid for that, according to a SITE Intelligence Group translation of an interview published on Wednesday in the Islamic State newspaper al-Nabaa.
The newspaper identified Abu Musab al-Barnawi as the new “Wali,” or governor, of its so-called West Africa Province. The “Wali” title was previously used to describe long-time Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau.
The report did not say what Shekau’s current status was, although there have been rumors for weeks that he had been replaced.
The interview with al-Barnawi indicates a major shift in strategy for the Nigerian extremists, who have killed many more Muslims than Christians in attacks in mosques with suicide bombers and gunmen.
There have also been attacks on crowded marketplaces in predominantly Muslim areas and the killings and kidnappings of school children. The targeting of students accounts for its nickname Boko Haram, which means Western education is sinful or forbidden.
“They strongly seek to Christianize the society. … They exploit the condition of those who are displaced under the raging war, providing them with food and shelter and then Christianizing their children,” SITE Intelligence quotes the new leader as saying.
Al-Barnawi says the militants will respond to that threat by “booby-trapping and blowing up every church that we are able to reach, and killing all of those (Christians) who we find from the citizens of the cross.”…

Dexter L. Wilson says
23 Christian Refugees from war torn countries especially the Middle East where Christians are martyred everyday and we get Thousands of Muslims? Whether you are a democrat or republican don’t you think we should properly vet Muslims. And what is wrong with letting Christians into the US that will not try to kill us. Contact your senators and Congresspersons and ask them why they are not letting in Christians and Yasidis.

The UN has a monopoly on deciding who’s a muslim and who isn’t. The OIC is the largest voting block in the UN.
Bob says
Don’t hold your breath waiting for the UN to object!
Shane says
The UN decides who is a refugee and they have decided that millions of muslims are refugees, and a few Christians are refugees.

Amen!
John Billings says
Excellent comment. There is an organization, Voice of the Martyrs, that works to relieve the suffering of persecuted Christians worldwide. Guess who the major persecutors of Christians are found? Islamic nations. Time to start bringing in more Christians from these areas, and many fewer rapistic Muslims.
Myrtle Linder says
I don’t think Obamy wants the Christians, only the Muslim prancing peoples, from anywhere, everywhere!!
panda says
From the article: “They exploit the condition of those who are displaced under the raging war, providing them with food and shelter and then Christianizing their children.” How interesting. Ragheads start the raging war. Displace others. Christians take care of them. muslims get upset.
How un-Christlike of them.
Myrtle Linder says
Read 2 Timothy 3:1-17 for the best answer, Total evil has arrived in our country’s ruling, I don’t think that anything will be done about it until the arrival of JESUS CHRIST, HE is coming, you know, we just don’t know when but the Biblical signs are right for HIM to come at any time!!
Shane says
I would rather take in no refugees than the current almost 100% muslim Syrian refugees, who most are not Syrian. All Western nations should stop taking in muslim immigrants, students, and refugees.
Angemon says
Remind me again what’s Nigeria role in the Middle East…

Walter Sieruk says
The jihadist Muslims who compose the violent and deadly jihad entity Boko Haram detest all who say that they are Christians. The jihadists who make up Boko Haram don’t care if that person who professes to be a Christian is a Catholic or Protestant. The jihadists of Boko Haram hate them all. One of the reasons why the Muslims who compose Boko Haram are so much against Christians is that some Christians teach the Bible with its many doctrines to others. The Bible that is so very damaging to Islamic doctrine that the Muslim clerics sand strongly against the people obtaining Bible’s. For example, Islamic [Koranic] doctrine denies the Jesus is God. In other words Islam denies the Deity of Christ. Nevertheless, the Bible teaches “For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form.” Colossians 2:9. [N.I.V.] Moreover, the Jesus is God may further be seen in the Bible. As in, for example, John 1:1-3. Colossians 1:15-17. Romans 9:5. Second Peter 1:1. Titus 2:13. First John 5:20. In addition, for a person to further find out that Jesus is God all a she or he has to do in to compare the Old Testament with New Testament to see that Jesus is God. AS by comparing Isaiah 45:22, 23 with Philippians 2:5-11. Likewise by comparing Psalm 89:8,9 with Matthew 8:23-27. Will also confirm that Jesus is God. Also by comparing Psalm 62. 5-7.with First Corinthians 10:4. Just by comparing the New Testament books together will like show that Jesus is God .For example, comparing John 5:22. with Romans 14:12 shows the Deity of Christ. The list can go on but this should be enough for anyone who is willing to see, and not as those who Bible calls those who are willingly ignorant, II Peter 3:5., that Jesus is God. The imams and mullahs as well as the other apologists for Islam will try to “explain “ all this away by making the claim that the Bible had been corrupted by Christians, through time, and that’s why the Bible reads as it does. This claim they make very much underestimate the Power of God to preserve His Word and keep it safe and intact and away from the corruption of men. In conclusion, The Muslim clerics strongly dislike the Bile because the Bible greatly exposes the terrible doctrinal errors that Islam with the Koran as Islam’s foundation have concerning the nature of Jesus. Likewise the Bible exposes Islam as a false religion, Isaiah 8:20. Proverbs 14:12. All Muslims be they jihadist /ISIS Muslim or non-violent peaceful Muslims are invited to turn away for the false religion of Islam and come to and receive the real Jesus of the Bible. Who is the True Light to the world, John 8:12. and the only way to God the Father , John 14:6.
Champ says
Indeed, Walter …Jesus *is* God in the flesh! No wonder mohammedans hate Christian ity because Jesus reveals their evil deeds.

This is “nothing to do with Islam” – one kind of “porky” to which Muslims seem to object not at all. Only the kuffar cockroaches ever kill, isn’t that right ?
Wellington says
Boko Haram is the true face of the spiritual fascism which is Islam. So is ISIS, Hezbollah, Hamas, MILF (yeah, can you believe it?), al-Shabaab, al-Qaeda, et al.
Meanwhile, Muslims in the West in droves will focus upon “backlash” against Muslims and other rot along these lines (self-pity is indeed one of several cornerstones of the massive error which is Islam). Compounding all this malevolence and deception is the utterly pathetic Western MSM which continues to shill for the worst religion ever created by man. Furthermore, a huge percentage of the West’s political elites, including clueless American Republicans like Paul Ryan and John (“it’s the Islam”) McCain remain in willful ignorance mode, I specifically mention the Republican Party of the United States here because, almost to date, it has been the single greatest friend of Israel, which polity is the canary in the coal mine of Western Civilization. But to the extent that rubes like Ryan and McCain continue to make excuses for Islam, which they most certainly do, then precisely to this extent is Israel and the entire West in mortal danger.
Not good. Not good at all. Meanwhile, evil and foolish ones profit by this pathetic descent of the West. And for what? To prove tolerance of the spiritual fascism which is Islam? Oh yeah, much, much more trouble ahead. Much.
And damn, I wish Donald Trump was shrewder and more knowledgeable than he is. Yes, I do wish this because he’s just about the best the West has going for it right now———but he’s not nearly good enough. And don’t the enemies of the West (this would include the Democratic Party of the United States) know this full well. Indeed, Hillary and company are licking their chops right now as well they should.
To Trump I say this: Get smarter and more savvy real soon. You better because time is running out. Learn.

I keep hearing things like Muslims and Christians worship the same God, which is totally untrue. But, to all these people who keep saying that, if that is true, then why are Christians being persecuted worldwide by Muslims? And not just “radical” Muslims but everyday, “normal” Muslims. It’s all so much BS.
Jaladhi says
All Muslims follow the same religion – there is no radical Islam and no moderate Islam – islam is Islam and Muslims do what Quran and Mo ask them to do or the wrath of allah will fall on them in hell. Superstitious morons!1
Christina says
People in America need to put down the remote, and WAKE UP!
Allah the real story!
These are things you need to know about Islam and Muslims. Allah IS NOT the same God who is worshiped by Jews and Christians. Allah is no more a God than the Golden calf of Egypt. Allah predates Islam by over a thousand years, and was a minor deity in the Temple of Baal, the Canaanite Sun God, who was worshiped throughout the Middle East. Baal (ba’al) was an ancient Canaanite and Mesopotamian deity associated with agriculture. He was believed to be the “giver of life” and mankind was dependent upon him for providing what was necessary to sustain the farms, flocks and herds. Allah was the moon god who’s sign was the crescent moon. Mohammad, born 570 years after the Birth of Christ, was very familiar with Judaism and Christianity and stole traditions from both religions to create his own cult. He took the named Allah for his God because it was familiar to Arabs across the region. This is why you so often see the symbol of the crescent moon associated with Islam, and on so many Islamic flags. Mohammad asked the Jews to recognize him as a Prophet from God, which they refused to do. Because of this Mohammad turned upon the Jews, and Muslims have hated and despised the Jews ever since. Mohammad warred upon the Jews, and slaughtered whole villages, decapitating the men, and selling the women into slavery. Mohammad himself set the example to his followers by demanding from his captors that they either convert to Islam or be put to death; a tradition that carries on even to this day. Upon Mohammad’s death in 632 A.D., a rift developed amongst Muslims as to who should succeed as leader of their cult. Thus you have the Shia and Sunni. Muslims following Mohammad’s exampled raped, pillaged and plundered their way across the Middle East and North Africa, Murdering those that would not convert to Islam. In the year 711 A.D., Muslims (called the Moors) crossed the Strait of Gibraltar and invaded Spain. In 827 A.D. the Muslims invaded Sicily, and in 847 A.D. the Italian port of Bari (occupied from 847 until 871), with Muslim raids reaching as far north as Rome and Piedmont. During this same time period, the Muslims invaded Europe in the east, first laying siege to Constantinople in 674–678 A.D. Muslims continued their depredations until In March 1095, Pope Urban II received an ambassador from the Byzantine Emperor asking for help against Muslim invasion and another siege of Constantinople. THIS is what prompted the Crusades of the middle ages, an attempt to put an end to Muslim aggression! The fact of the matter is that Europe was being invaded in both the East AND the West! Lets be clear, What we are seeing today in the Mideast, and elsewhere is not radical Islam. This is what Mohamed intended his cult to be, and this is what Islam was when it raped pillaged and plundered its way across the Middle east, North Africa, and Invaded Spain and Europe with the intent of taking over the entire world. Let there be no mistake, it is the intent of Islam to take over the world……
jewdog says
I just don’t get it: President Obama and Hillary Clinton have assured us that if we don’t offend Muslims by implying that Islam has anything to do with terrorism or ISIL, then extremist recruitment will decrease. Exactly when will we see the results of that tactful approach? This new Boko Haram leader seems very ungrateful, and somewhat insensitive. I dare say – he’s almost as bad as Donald Trump.

I wonder what faces these stupid jihadists will make when , someday, Christ will tell them :
Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. (Matthew 25.41).
That will be a glorious day. The cause of Allah is the cause of Satan, Allah=Satan.
These demons , whether it’s Boko Haram or Islamic State (Demonic State, Satanic State) have no heart at killing innocents, but also have no brains as well.
How stupid (besides evil, let’s separate evilness from stupidity) can a person be to think that killing innocent lives will grant him eternal paradise?
What a bunch of LOOSERS, pathetic, disgusting demonic beings.
Instead of living a peaceful life, loving a woman and having kids and trying to be happy in this life, because life is good and was given as a gift, they kill each other and kill innocents.
We really live on a disgusting planet.
Live by the sword, die by the sword.
Debi Brand says
“he will ‘blow up every Church’ and ‘kill every Christian.’”
Once more, as Spencer so often time speaks to, Muslims, heavy on the goal of annihilation of those who reject their “prophet” and reject the message he brought.
From where in this world do they get that idea and goal?
Answer: “Book of ‘Allah,’’’ Sunnah of “Allah,” thus come Sunnah and goal of the ummah.

All those ignorant bokoharam black slaves – doing as their Arab masters command.
Recall that IS said the slave trade would still be in America if they had been in charge. History shows that black Muslims were taken into slavery by Arabs or other black Muslims – does anyone think this would not happen again? In the Muslim mind, Arabs are better than blacks, and white blonde slaves are the most desirable.

The Biafran people are tired of living with the islamist extremist jihadist fundamentalist hausa-fulani barbaric terrorist tribes, parading and masquerading themselves in the name of 1 stupid, mis-managed, Miserable, unproductive, undeveloped, uncivilized, terrorist infested, Abyssal fantastic corrupt nigeria. Nigeria, a country floating without vision and purpose, failed state governed by rogue elements. Biafrans and nigerians are two different species, irreconcilable. The Biafra people say no to 1 nigeria of wahhabis sunni muslim hausa-fulani terrorist country. The Biafran people are still worried over conspiracy of collective silence of World leaders, International medias on matter concerning Restoration of Christian Republic of Biafra. The occupation of Biafra territory by British-Nigerian Military and the continues killing of Christian Biafrans forcefully living in Nigeria meritted world attention. The World is reluctant to ask the opinion of Biafra people in this forced union called Nigeria. The islamic government of Nigeria has poor sense of judgement, if the Britain that created Nigeria can give the British people the opportunity to decide their fate in the union of Britain and Europe by means of referendum, why can’t the World persuade the islamic government of nigeria to follow the same step instead of continues massacre of Biafran people by nigerian government led by hausa-fulani wahhabis sunni muslims who sole purpose and ambition is to Islamize the Biafran People? The Biafran people need the support and help of men and women of goodwil and Christian Community all over the World.
