The President of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari, has been repeatedly making the “false claim that the Nigerian government defeated Boko Haram.” He has also repeatedly downplayed the “herdsmen” who have been massacring Christians. These so-called “herdsmen” are really Fulani jihadists who are tied to Boko Haram.
Just over a week ago, Fulani jihadist “herdsmen” launched a brutal attack upon a Catholic church during morning mass, leaving two priests and at least 17 parishioners dead. Hundreds of Christians have been murdered by Fulani jihadists since January.
Last week, Buhari met with Trump at the White House. Trump praised Buhari’s efforts to battle Boko Haram and condemned “the burning of churches and the killing and persecution of Christians,” calling it “a horrible story” and demanding that it be stopped. Trump also rebuked the targeting of Muslim civilians.
Buhari pretends to have Boko Haram and the Fulani group under control because he is a jihad sympathizer and he doesn’t want backlash from Christians locally, or international attention to their plight.
Boko Haram is not fading, and neither are the Fulani jihadists.
Upon the election of Buhari two years ago, there were concerns among Christians and human rights groups that he would favor the Muslims over Christians due to his shared “ethnicity” with the Fulani group,and that he might usher in Sharia. Last year that fear proved to have validity, when Nigerian State Security Services arrested a Christian pastor for converting a Muslim girl to Christianity.
“Nigerian President Claims Boko Haram Fading as Group Kills Scores at Mosque”, by Edwin Mora, Breitbart, May 2, 2018:
Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari spoke to Voice of America (VOA) on Monday, indicating that “life in the country’s northeast is improving, as the threat of Boko Haram militants recedes and people return to their homes and farms.”
Authorities suspect that Boko Haram jihadists conducted a bombing the following day in and around a mosque in northeastern Nigeria that killed up to 27 people and wounded another 56.
The attack took place in Mubi town located in Adamawa state, which borders Borno state, the birthplace of Boko Haram where the jihadist group is most active.
Reuters reports:
The blasts in the town of Mubi bore the hallmarks of Islamist militant group Boko Haram, which has waged an insurgency in Africa’s most populous country since 2009 and often deploys suicide bombers in crowded places.
The jihadist group on Thursday carried out an attack in Maiduguri, capital of neighboring Borno state, that killed four people.
More than 30,000 people have been killed in the insurgency, which has also forced some two million to flee their homes.
President has repeatedly made the false claim that the Nigerian government defeated Boko Haram.
Although U.S.-backed troops from various African countries have significantly weakened the terrorist organization, it remains very much active in northeastern Nigeria and neighboring Cameroon, VOA notes.
During the interview on Monday, Buhari argued that when he took office in 2015, the jihadists controlled a majority of local government areas in their birthplace Borno state, ”But now they are not holding any local governments, according to what the military told me, and I believe them.”
The Nigerian leader pointed out that people displaced by Boko Haram at the height of its insurgency — which began in 2009 — have returned home and cultivating their farms, courtesy of low-interest loans from the government.
Muslim says
There is no jihad against Christians in Nigeria. What nonsense! Jihad has leadership, rules and conditions.
Jihad is called by a Muslim leader, Boko Haram is not recognized by any state – they are an extremist terrorist group who have deviated from the teachings of Islam. Burning bodies of women, children etc are not from jihad.
Christians and Muslims have always lived together in peace in Nigeria. Even today in the southern areas there are a number of intermarriages. You people are over exaggerating.

Boko Haram,ISIS, Al-Qaeda, Taliban, Hezbollah, Hamas, Al-shabaab, Lashkar-E-Taiba all follow the koran to the letter and copy the actions of the psychopath mohammad to the letter. You can not be a more devout muslim than these groups! What fricking book are you following???

Muslims murder Christians you fool because your sick god demands that you do. Muslims are murdering around 100,000 Christian a year in islamic countries how is that living in peace?

Flavius Claudius Iulianus says
I am tired of your idiocy around Mithraism. First of all, you are confusing two Hellenistic mystery cults: Mithraism and the cult of Sol Invictus. Despite syncretic links between the two, they are not the same and one did not come from the other.
The claim that Christianity has its origins in either Mithraism and/or the cult of Sol Invictus is verifiably false. (By the way, it is Sol Invictus that is falsely claimed to be the precursor of Christianity, not Mithraism.)
Most claims around this “Christ is actually Sol Invictus or Mithras” is only supported by a long list of coincidents and trivial similarities. Trivial similarities do not prove equivalence.
The three religions (the cult of Sol Invictus, Mithraism and Christianity) co-existed from the second to fourth century and so would have shared superficial trivial traits as you would find, say, in Roman Catholicism and Animism in many regions of Latin America. The RC faith in these regions has taken on superficial rituals of the Animists and vice versa, but no one in their right mind would claim that one religion spawned the other or that the two faiths, at their core, is truly one.
Susan B. says
Ibrahim – same old same old. When you mohammedan trolls can not defend islam you attack Christianity. Let me know when Christians are raping and murdering because Jesus did and Jesus commanded us too!!! Wow you are a brain dead and soul lacking vessel for Satan, or allah as you muslims prefer.
mortimer says
Ibrahim, you show us the low intelligence of Muslims. Your one argument (namely that Christianity is recycled Mithraism) is NOT AN ARGUMENT IN SUPPORT OF ISLAM.
It is a DISTRACTION.
Ibrahim, there is NO ETHICAL DEFENSE for Islam, because it is AMORAL, INCONSISTENT and OPPORTUNISTIC.
Whatever is inconsistent is NOT moral. So Islam is incongruent and thus indefensible and it safe to assume it is false, because no intellectual defense is available for Islam.

It never fails to exasperate me that a detailed enumeration of every single fact is always needed to rebut the most ridiculous claims made by Mohammadans and their supporters. We should be able to say, “no, you are wrong, go check the facts.”
You shouldn’t have to outline a long list of events; it should be obvious. However, in this climate of contrarian denial, a long list is what is needed. I commend you and thank you, mgoldberg, for having presented it. Your list BURIES “Muslim” and his ridiculous claims!
Carol the 1st says
It helps to share lists like this. Many of us have good instincts but scholarly/factual evidence others have compiled greatly helps to substantiate what our common sense shouts. It lends armor against screaming fanatics who don’t give a hoot about truth or logic.
And hasn’t Ibrahim claimed to have spent a fair amount of residence TIME in Nigeria? We can guess what he supported – in thought and quite possibly in action as well.
I notice Mortimer is again using the term AMORAL. I don’t see where this is appropriate and it unfortunately lends a pass for unforgivable, freely chosen behavior that tangibly and unnecessarily destroys those who would wisely oppose it. It is for material and egotistical gain and one cannot worship God and Mammon.

We definitely have to confront this menace without pussy footing.
mortimer says
Muslims value honesty in business as much as anyone, but it is VIRTUOUS for Muslims to conceal, dissemble and cloak the MEANING, MOTIVE and METHODS of jihad from the dirty KUFAAR.
Muslims hide the fact that they must HATE the kufaar ‘for the sake of Allah’. Hatred directed against kafirs is a canonical, ‘essential’ teaching.

Where do you stand on 9 year old pedophile marriages?
Wellington says
To the extent that Christians and Muslims have “always lived in peace in Nigeria,” this has been due either to submissive behavior by Christians to Muslims, being good obedient dhimmis and all that, or because some Muslims have not implemented Islamic dictates to the maximum, i.e., lazy Muslims.
But even your claim on its face is wrong. For instance, one of the major reasons why the Igbo people created the state of Biafra which lasted from 1967-1970 is because they were Christian and wanted nothing to do with any Muslim dominance over them.
mortimer says
DOMINANCE, you say? Between 1,000 and 2,000 Christians have been murdered by Muslims every year in Nigeria since the 1990s.

As for intermarriages, this ameliorates nothing. Boko Haram itself kidnaps Christian girls and forces them to marry Jihadists. This is *not* a good thing as the victims see it.
dreggsofhumanity says
Deviated from the teachings you say? I beg to differ – QURAN -Quran (2:191-193) – “And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah [disbelief or unrest] is worse than killing… but if they desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah [disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah] and worship is for Allah alone. But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun(the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.)” (Translation is from the Noble Quran) The verse prior to this (190) refers to “fighting for the cause of Allah those who fight you” leading some to claim that the entire passage refers to a defensive war in which Muslims are defending their homes and families. The historical context of this passage is not defensive warfare, however, since Muhammad and his Muslims had just relocated to Medina and were not under attack by their Meccan adversaries. In fact, the verses urge offensive warfare, in that Muslims are to drive Meccans out of their own city (which they later did). Verse 190 thus means to fight those who offer resistance to Allah’s rule (ie. Muslim conquest). The use of the word “persecution” by some Muslim translators is disingenuous – the actual Arabic words for persecution (idtihad) – and oppression are not used instead of fitna. Fitna can mean disbelief, or the disorder that results from unbelief or temptation. A strict translation is ‘sedition,’ meaning rebellion against authority (the authority being Allah). This is certainly what is meant in this context since the violence is explicitly commissioned “until religion is for Allah” – ie. unbelievers desist in their unbelief. [Editor’s note: these notes have been modified slightly after a critic misinterpreted our language. Verse 193 plainly says that ‘fighting’ is sanctioned even if the fitna ‘ceases’. This is about religious order, not real persecution.]
Quran (2:244) – “Then fight in the cause of Allah, and know that Allah Heareth and knoweth all things.” (
Quran (2:216) – “Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not.” Not only does this verse establish that violence can be virtuous, but it also contradicts the myth that fighting is intended only in self-defense, since the audience was obviously not under attack at the time. From the Hadith, we know that this verse was narrated at a time that Muhammad was actually trying to motivate his people into raiding merchant caravans for loot.
Quran (3:56) – “As to those who reject faith, I will punish them with terrible agony in this world and in the Hereafter, nor will they have anyone to help.”
Quran (3:151) – “Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers, for that they joined companions with Allah, for which He had sent no authority”. This speaks directly of polytheists, yet it also includes Christians, since they believe in the Trinity (ie. what Muhammad incorrectly believed to be ‘joining companions to Allah’).
Quran (4:74) – “Let those fight in the way of Allah who sell the life of this world for the other. Whoso fighteth in the way of Allah, be he slain or be he victorious, on him We shall bestow a vast reward.” The martyrs of Islam are unlike the early Christians, who were led meekly to the slaughter. These Muslims are killed in battle as they attempt to inflict death and destruction for the cause of Allah. This is the theological basis for today’s suicide bombers.
Quran (4:76) – “Those who believe fight in the cause of Allah…”
Quran (4:89) – “They but wish that ye should reject Faith, as they do, and thus be on the same footing (as they): But take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah (From what is forbidden). But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever ye find them; and (in any case) take no friends or helpers from their ranks.”
Quran (4:95) – “Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home), except those who are disabled (by injury or are blind or lame, etc.), and those who strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allah with their wealth and their lives. Allah has preferred in grades those who strive hard and fight with their wealth and their lives above those who sit (at home).Unto each, Allah has promised good (Paradise), but Allah has preferred those who strive hard and fight, above those who sit (at home) by a huge reward ” This passage criticizes “peaceful” Muslims who do not join in the violence, letting them know that they are less worthy in Allah’s eyes. It also demolishes the modern myth that “Jihad” doesn’t mean holy war in the Quran, but rather a spiritual struggle. Not only is this Arabic word (mujahiduna) used in this passage, but it is clearly not referring to anything spiritual, since the physically disabled are given exemption. (The Hadith reveals the context of the passage to be in response to a blind man’s protest that he is unable to engage in Jihad, which would not make sense if it meant an internal struggle). (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (4:101) – “And when you (Muslims) travel in the land, there is no sin on you if you shorten your Salat (prayer) if you fear that the disbelievers may attack you, verily, the disbelievers are ever unto you open enemies.” Mere disbelief makes one an “open” enemy of Muslims.
Quran (4:104) – “And be not weak hearted in pursuit of the enemy; if you suffer pain, then surely they (too) suffer pain as you suffer pain…” Is pursuing an injured and retreating enemy really an act of self-defense?
Quran (5:33) – “The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement” In fact there are over 100 verses instructing muslims to kill non muslims.

Wellington says
“….christian president jonathan who promoted boko haram…….”
Proof please, Ibrahim. My understanding is that Boko Haram was created in 2002 by Mohammed Yusuf to eventually insure an Islamic state and he used the corruption of the Nigerian government (nothing new here since the Nigerian government has pretty much been corrupt from its outset in 1960) as a calling card to aid his initiative. This constitutes a big difference from a Christian President of Nigeria actually promoting Boko Haram as you alleged.

…………………………………….
Buhari is doing nothing to protect Christians, just downplaying attacks on them being important. Nothing to see here, filthy Infidels…
Ibrahim itace muhammed says
welligton, are you aware that the Nigerian leader then Yakubu Jack Gowon against whom Igbos revolted is a christian from christian missionary family? Igbo secessionist agitating has nothing to do with religion. Igbos deceive themselves that they are Jews from Israel, and therefore superior to other Nigerians, but the world Jews dismissed the claim when they conducted DNA on Igbos. In fact, it is Fulanis who have been confirmed to have jewish blood from the mother of their grandfather.

What does any of this have to do with Muslims waging Jihad against Christians?
Wellington says
Look up information on Biafra, Ibrahim, and you will invariably find that one of the main reasons the Igbo created Biafra was because of religious oppression by Muslims. It was not the only reason but it was up there in the top four or five.

Nigeria’s Muslim President downplays jihad attacks on Christians

Well, of course he does. As a good Muslim, what’s the problem with Muslims slaughtering Christians? God, I hate Islam.

Gravenimage, since you worship the satan (holy spirit) no one can stop you from lying because your satan god is the father of lies. Not too long ago the dirty Birom mithraist christians picked Fulani ladies into caves on top of plateau mountain, after killing Fulani men and burning their houses, called on phone saying arnas (christians) Fulanis consider as too dirty were now inserting their uncircumcised penises into vaginas of fulani women . was that not too provocative for Fulanis to take revenge?How can Buhari stop the angry Fulanis in the forest from taking revenge?

Notice that Ibrahim itace muhammed is unable to cite anything I wrote that is incorrect. Certainly, though, this should not surprise–he never has been able to, over the course of a number of years now.
As for his claim, I have been unable to find any reference to this supposed incident–surprising, if it was supposed to be the reason that Muslims are slaughtering Christians in Nigeria. Citations, please.
Of course, if any such incident *did* take place, I condemn it outright.
Notice, though, that Ibrahim itace muhammed only appears to take issue with rape if it involves uncircumcised penises. And why not? He has many times here lauded Muslims raping Infidel women, and affirming that this is sacralized in Islam.
In any case, Muslims have been mass murdering Christians in Nigeria for centuries–the claim that these are all revenge killings for something that–if it happened at all–was presumably quite recent simply makes no sense.
And, again, it is not that Buhari is unable to stop Muslims from murdering Christians–it is that he has little desire to do so. American President Trump has called him out on this.
Wellington says
Gravenimage, Ibrahim, doesn’t worship Satan and you come across as utterly ridiculous (once again) for stating the preposterous as truth.

Thank you, Wellington.
Interesting that he claims I “worship the satan” for opposing rape, oppression, and mass slaughter. *Very* telling.

I don’t spot GI saying anything like that here. Did the names get accidentally reversed?
Lydia Church says
These evil men will deny this until they are blue in the face. If you live in such a land they kill you. Christians are their number one target because we follow the one true God.
But these murderers try to silence the truth any way they can. Sadly there are still many in the West who are ignorant and can still be fooled… for now.
Estee Tabernac says
There are no Christians in Nigeria. They have not evolved culturally nor intellectually sufficient to comprehend even the most basic of Christian principles. Most of the churches in Nigeria are obsessed with witches and evil spirits. Church leaders cast spells on members to increase contributions and even sell indulgences to allow people to cheat, steal and murder each other. The Boko Haram are doing us a favor by killing all these crazy Niggerians.
WPM says
So killing Christians in Nigeria is not bad because they are not “true Christians”. Raping young school girls in Nigeria is not bad because they are not “true ” Christians. Burning churches down ,killing priest at mass is OK because they are not true Christians ?Wiping out peaceful villages is OK because they are not true Christians ?
I see by your post you are far from a true Christian yourself.
gravenimage says
The repulsive Estee Tabernac has said this before–that she *lauds* Muslims murdering Christians in Nigeria, because they are–somehow–not “true” Christians.
And yet Estee Tabernac appears to think that applauding kidnapping, rape, and murder *is* Christian. *Ugh*.
Also, the reference to “Niggerians” show what a racist creep this poster is.
gravenimage says
I found a bizarre post by the egregious Estee Tabernac, where she accuses Anti-Jihadists of “racism” for opposing the horrors of Jihad and Shari’ah–even though she is here ranting about “Niggerians”.
https://www.jihadwatch.org/2018/04/hugh-fitzgerald-in-defense-of-tariq-ramadan-hatem-bazian-tries-to-write-english#comment-1889734
I think her agenda is clearer now–it is all about enabling Jihad.
Carol the 1st says
In regard to that article, Estee posted that in her view the mythical Islamophobia will someday be seen as just as foul-smelling as Anti-Semitism.
Her post ends charmingly with : “Are you racist religious bigots and proud of it? You and your ragtag hillbilly followers will be brought down. I will be standing nearby, laughing and pointing my long crooked brown finger at you. Just place that pointed dunce cap on your head and hang that sign around your neck that says “I’m a racist religious bigot, spit in my face!”.
Some of these “ragtag hillbilly followers” on this site are amazingly well-educated!

For me the article’s saddest line is “Trump praised Buhari’s efforts to battle Boko Haram”: from Abbas to Buhari (but never anyone like, say, Orban!), his pattern of low-informed praises for the invited leaders is just incredible.

Aiden Dillion wrote in response to the headline below.
At last the civilised world has taken notice of the evil Jihadi intentions of the savage Fulani caliphate. Openly supported by the British Government because of their desire for unrestricted access to free crude oil from Biafraland, these Fulani beasts were allowed to kill, rape and pillage at will up until now. To the British, it doesn’t matter how many people are killed to keep Nigeria one. It doesn’t matter how many Christian churches are burnt, synagogues desecrated or communities cleansed. The only thing Britain is interested in is the money Royal Dutch Shell is bringing in from Biafra crude oil.
We must not go on deceiving ourselves any longer. Everything is about crude oil and what best serves British interest. Fulani terrorists, be they the cabal in Aso Rock today, their illiteracy facilitating Emirs, the Sultan himself, Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association who are themselves the terrorists we know today as Fulani herdsmen, they are all foot soldiers for the British and Islam. Britain benefit directly from the Fulani reign of terror because after these cow loving animals from the Sahel must have finished slaughtering and terrorizing everybody in Nigeria to a state of stupor, Britain simply continues to suck the oil without any interruption. Britiain are the Gods that created Nigeria. To them, who is that black man or woman from Biafra to dare question a superior British white creator of Nigeria.
The existence of Nigeria is confirmation that white people will forever be superior to black Africans. I have never heard of a black man traveling to Europe to colonize them or create a country for them. If Britain can create a country for you and me, give us names and determine who should rule us, you don’t need Einstein to tell you that you are in no way equal to them. These are indisputable facts.
This Jubril they parade in front of us daily, the dead Buhari, Buratai and other armed Fulani brutes can go on killing innocent Biafrans and Nigerian Christians for ever and ever with no consequence because Daddy Britain is their patron. As long as Shell is collecting oil revenue on behalf of Her Majesty’s Treasury in Whitehall London then there is no problem. Britain will never allow any Fulani murderer like the late Buhari or Buratai to face trial at the Hague.
Following Brexit and the steady decline and eventual collapse of British industrial manufacturing base, free oil from Biafraland and commodities from other equally backward black African colonies remain Britain’s only viable means of economic sustenance. Without crude oil exports from Biafraland, Britain will become bankrupt in 18 month, this is an economic fact.
A Nigeria under the dominant rulership of these illiterate unenlightened Fulani feudal lords is the perfect political arrangement that will allow successive British governments of whatever persuasion unfettered access to whatever this ‘former’ colony of theirs can yield. If you want to know what makes a black man truly foolish and idiotic as he is today in the world, take your time and study Nigeria.
Britain is supporting the killing of Christians in Nigeria because they want to use Fulani natural tendency for terror to maintain their stranglehold on human and material resources in Nigeria. Illiterate Fulani feudal lords are the perfect British house slaves that will impoverish everybody to mask their own limitations as a race. When everybody is poor and forced to remain poor, nobody will notice the difference between the brilliant creative mind of a Biafran and the primitive nomadic disposition of your average Fulani. In all these murderous chaos and mayhem, the only beneficiary is Britain. As long as this black gold keeps flowing freely from Biafraland, to hell with the black African monkeys that inhabit the meaningless geo-political space named Nigeria.
This is something Nigerians are ignorant of because they are blessed with natural stupidity. What the creator of Nigeria has cleverly done is to get the filthy, intellectually backward Alimajiri north to democratise poverty, backwardness and idiocy while they continue extracting oil, gas, salt, bauxite, gold, white and black mable etc.
Our creators the British– they are our creators because they created Nigeria and made everybody Nigerian. They know everything that happens in their colony and is that is the case how come Theresa May never confronted Jubril about the killings not even the leader of the protestant faith Archbishop of Canterbury Mr Welby an oil merchant turned servant of God, a professed friend of (Buhari) Jubril uttered a word in condemnation. These people claim they are Western, therefore civilised Christians and human rights defenders but they never found it in themselves to condemn the killing of their fellow Christians simply because of crude oil.
They will be the first to condemn what they see as Muslim persecution in Rhohinga but when it comes to Christians being butchered in Nigeria, they feign ignorance or deny it altogether. It took a no nonsense President Trump to wake the world up to the reality of Fulani depravity in the British Zoo called Nigeria.
Thank you President Trump. As one of your your predecessors President Harry Truman did, by chasing European colonialists away from Africa that led to the flag independence we have today, so will you chase away British neo-colonialism that is directly responsible for the rise of murderous Fulani Jihadi inspired annihilation of Christian populations in Nigeria.

Oh, good grief. The idea that Nigeria is still a British colony is ridiculous–as is the idea that Jihad in sub-saharan Africa is due to the British.

Aiden Dillion, you are either savage Igbo moron or trading lies from these Idiot. oil is not coming from Biafraud. it comes from Niger Delta of south southern ,invaded and oppressed by Igbo rebels during civil war ,and now now discovered in the North-Eastern Nigeria, not from Igbo. A mad liar!!

I don’t think that Buhari himself was involved in creating Boko Haram. He doesn’t seem to be doing much to try to end it, though.
