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

Nigeria: Muslims attack Action Against Hunger aid convoy, one dead, six missing

Jul 20, 2019 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Jihadists sometimes attack humanitarian aid organizations because these organizations are not Muslim, and they view the aid they bring as bribes intended to lead the faithful away from Islam.

“Six missing after suspected Islamists attack aid convoy in northeast Nigeria,” Reuters, July 19, 2019:

MAIDUGURI, Nigeria (Reuters) – Six people are missing following an attack on an aid convoy in northeast Nigeria, an international aid organization said on Friday with sources stating that it was carried out by Islamist insurgents who abducted survivors.

Action Against Hunger in a statement said one staff member, two drivers and three other health workers are missing after Thursday’s attack on a convoy near the town of Damasak in the northeastern state of Borno in which one driver was killed….

The case raises concerns about the targeting of humanitarian staff in the region’s decade-long insurgency, triggered by Boko Haram militants….

The latest attack comes nine months after Islamic State’s West Africa branch executed a Red Cross aid worker who was kidnapped from another town in northeastern Nigeria in March 2018.

Around 30,000 people have been killed in the insurgency, during which militant group Boko Haram has sought to create an Islamic caliphate. And more than two million people have been forced to flee their homes….

    With those jihadists who murdered these humanitarian aid workers further supports and proves true the saying to be a reflection of what happened,. the saying is that “No good deed will go unpunished .”

    This is all the more true which come to helping the poor and downtrodden in Islamic countries because the jihad-minded Muslims know and care for only Islamic based violence.

    The murders of the aid workers by vicious and violent Muslims reflects the Bible’s description of evil ,violent and evil men .

    For it is written. “Their feet are swift to shed blood; destruction and misery are in their ways; an d the way of peace they have not known.” Romans 3:15-17. [N.K.J.V.]

    One of such many groups around the world with that goal, despite different cultural backgrounds…

    This is heartbreaking. Thank you Mr. Spencer for helping to expose what is going on in Nigeria, the loading genocide must be stopped. We should not sit by and be silent!

    Never again should not have a location attached to it. Please share this and other information about Nigeria with your family and friends; people can not act if they do not know, but let’s make sure that they can not use “I didn’t know” as an excuse to not act.

    The only action proven effective against Jihadists is to cooperate in providing them with the outcome they seek. My only concern is our ability to produce the quantities of ammunition necessary. One more requirement; Take no prisoners.

    Some do good deeds. Moslems do Jihad deeds. That’s their cross to bear… whoops, that doesn’t work: it’s their scimitar to bear.

      One might suppose a cross can become a sword,
      as a scimitar could be made from a crescent moon….

    Nigeria is one of worst countries.
    Look after the actual “government”! The so called president is hardly present, he only is making non important decisions at all, many of his governors are extremly corrupt (check out example in the Internet “Ganduje”),big money is diverted to foreign banc accounts, no good school, no security, daily kidnappings and killings (Boko Haram), no enough and goot health infrastructure, lamentable roads. no electricity, no drinkwater, no sanitation infrastructure, no local postal service, lack of maintanance of vehicules of any kind (deadly tanker accidents are “normal”), army seems to be infiltrated by Islam, no fair correct elections, endless environment problems (air/water), no effectiv family planning, Fulani-problems, growing tensions between ethnic groups, etc. etc. etc.!
    Check out, in what luxurious lifestyle the so called “upper and leading class” of Nigerians is living!
    Therefore it’s an easy game for Jihadists, to find “new members”!
    Something decisive has now to be done very soon!

    Nigerian Army should train Self-Defense Group each village. Army should arm and train with shotguns.

    Army should also be hunting terrorists on own.

    PS Reminder to Christians and tribalist religion followers. Be sure to use (well no post office to deliver Silver Bullet Gun Oil) so just put pork fat tip each shotgun shell.

    The president of Nigeria is a Muslim. So how committed is he really to suppressing BoKo Harm? Until the leadership of Nigeria view Boko Harm as a threat to the nation and not in religious terms, it will not get a handle on it.

    Explain why the USA is giving Nigeria $851 million of our tax dollars for this crap. The muslims have to be brought down in the way which they bring others down and as the gentleman said, take no prisoners. This is pure crap. The President of Nigeria needs to get a life and protect his people from these dogs. Why are we even messing with them; their ONLY agenda is kill all non-muslims; kidnap and murder; pure idiots. CUT OFF ALL MONEY TO THEM, then they might see the light.
