“Islamist Fulani raiders are waging a barbaric war on Nigeria’s Christians, the Wall Street Journal reported this week, in a brutal campaign to rid the country’s Middle Belt of non-Muslims.”
Finally, the mainstream Wall Street Journal has picked up the issue of Christian persecution in Africa as a “new war” on African Christians. Only it isn’t a “new war.” Jihad Watch has been on this for some time — going back years — while other media has either ignored the issue altogether for fear of being called “Islamophobic,” or else has been calling the Fulani jihadists “herdsmen”; in much the same kind of avoidance tactic that we have seen in reference to “Asian grooming gangs,” as opposed to stating the truth of what they are: Muslim rape gangs.
It is welcome news nonetheless that the Wall Street Journal has taken up the issue for what it is. In a disturbing description by the WSJ:
In his first-hand account of the atrocities in the former British colony, Bernard-Henri Lévy writes the Fulani extremists now pose a greater threat than the Islamic terror group Boko Haram, and are responsible for systematic jihadist attacks involving burning, raping, maiming, pillaging, and killing.
Lévy describes the campaign as a “slow-motion war” against Nigeria’s Christians, “massive in scale and horrific in brutality.” And worst of all, he asserts, “the world has hardly noticed.”….
In his account, Lévy chronicles a series of atrocities: “The mutilated cadavers of women. A mute man commanded to deny his faith, then cut up with a machete until he screams. A girl strangled with the chain of her crucifix.”
And while all this is going on, most Western countries have flung open their doors to indiscriminate, unvetted Muslim migration instead of prioritizing Christians, all while collectively appeasing Islamic supremacists at home. Jihad Watch has been far ahead in explaining what to expect in continuing this appeasement.
“WSJ Decries Brutal ‘New War’ on Africa’s Christians,” by Thomas D. Williams, Breitbart, December 24, 2019:
Islamist Fulani raiders are waging a barbaric war on Nigeria’s Christians, the Wall Street Journal reported this week, in a brutal campaign to rid the country’s Middle Belt of non-Muslims.
In his first-hand account of the atrocities in the former British colony, Bernard-Henri Lévy writes the Fulani extremists now pose a greater threat than the Islamic terror group Boko Haram, and are responsible for systematic jihadist attacks involving burning, raping, maiming, pillaging, and killing.
Lévy describes the campaign as a “slow-motion war” against Nigeria’s Christians, “massive in scale and horrific in brutality.” And worst of all, he asserts, “the world has hardly noticed.”
Present throughout Nigeria and numbering between 14 and 15 million, the Fulani raiders originated in the country’s mostly Muslim north but have made their way south where they have been carrying out a reign of terror on Christians.
Mainstream media usually describe the conflict as ethnic and economic in flat-out denial of the thoroughly religious nature of the attacks, something Lévy ascribes to “professional disinformers.”
“They are Islamic extremists of a new stripe,” says a Nigerian NGO director interviewed by Lévy, “more or less linked with Boko Haram.”
According to the 2019 Global Terrorism Index, the Fulani militants are now deadlier than Boko Haram and carried out the majority of the Nigeria’s 2,040 documented terrorist fatalities in 2018.
In his account, Lévy chronicles a series of atrocities: “The mutilated cadavers of women. A mute man commanded to deny his faith, then cut up with a machete until he screams. A girl strangled with the chain of her crucifix.”
This past summer, Fulani raiders rode motorcycles into the village of a 28-year-old woman named Jumai Victor, shouting “Allahu Akbar!” and torching houses. The Islamists killed her four children before her eyes and proceeded to slice up and amputate her left arm with a machete. The woman was visibly pregnant at the time.
Another woman, 34-year-old Lyndia David, tells a similar story of a raid last March, when Fulani extremists set her house on fire, cut three fingers off her right hand, slashed the back of her neck with a machete, shot her, soaked her body with gasoline, and lit her on fire.
Miraculously, the woman survived.
There are “too many Christians in Lagos,” one of the Fulani told Lévy. “The Christians are dogs and children of dogs. You say Christians. To us they are traitors. They adopted the religion of the whites. There is no place here for friends of the whites, who are impure.”
According to the Anglican bishop of Jos, Benjamin Kwashi, the Fulani raiders are trying to spread fear throughout the region so that the survivors of their attacks will convince others to leave. Their brutality is essential to create an atmosphere of terror among local Christians.
Whereas the Boko Haram group is confined to as little as 5 percent of Nigerian territory, Lévy notes, “the Fulani terrorists operate across the country.”….

Finally, the mainstream Wall Street Journal has picked up the issue of Christian persecution in Africa…
If the Wall Street Journal is reporting on muslim crimes against Christians then that’s good, but there really needs to be a world wide push in the media to highlight the crimes they do for their religion. If it wasn’t for JW and Geller Report and Breitbart, too, we’d be so in the dark about all that muslims are doing against us. These are the folks that care about the lives and suffering of others as it pertains to islam. It’s typical of the mainstream media to actually conceal and minify the crimes of muslims to protect that false image of a “religion of peace.” They act like a Vichy government for islam. And this says it all,
“The mutilated cadavers of women…A girl strangled with the chain of her crucifix.”
Islamists killed her four children before her eyes…
…extremists set her house on fire, cut three fingers off her right hand, slashed the back of her neck with a machete, shot her, soaked her body with gasoline, and lit her on fire.
These are religiously motivated crimes against Christians on a demonic level–but it’s a religion of peace. ha!
And then these leftist c*nts (excuse my language Christine) have the nerve to declare islam to be peaceful and that muslims are a wonderful contribution to the West! even though it’s muslims that live and promote the doctrines that cause this violence and hate! Yippeeeee! let’s all be crazy idiots for islam and deny reality! Millions of muslims are flooding in, building mosques that spread this ideology, gobbling our neighborhoods, mass raping, and terrorizing our people for allah, but I’m a racist if I talk about all this.
Not one syllable of praise should be offered to the islamic religion until they put an end to the murder and terror it causes. You wouldn’t exonerate a serial killer by ignoring the bad and exalting any good they might have, and you shouldn’t do the same for islam. Stop lying you media shills, stop acting like evil c*nts for islam.

Yep, and all the trash, bullshitting, big fake news medias, like CNN, FOX, ABC etc, just keep on spoon feeding us all our daily gruel of highly-prossesed mindwash, without ever mentioning a single peep about stuff like this going on.
Sabri S. says
Oh stop it Christine…this is fear mongering and exaggerations at its worst…Africans are just responding and realizing that Christianity has done nothing for them, or her people. It is the religion of colonizers in much of africa. And of course, they are not blind to its false teaching. They show a picture of a roman soldier and claim it is jesus, who was dark skinned. Need I say more?

……………………………
Well, this is absurd–it is not “Africans” in general slaughtering Christians in Africa–it is Muslims. And Muslims do this not just in Africa, of course, but everywhere in the world.
Thew odd thing is that Sabri S. *himself* has said that Muslims intend to destroy all Christians in Nigeria. So how is any of the above exaggeration?
And note the idea that since Muslims consider Christianity to ‘do nothing for them’ that they believe they have the right to mass murder Christians.
More:
And of course, they are not blind to its false teaching. They show a picture of a roman soldier and claim it is jesus, who was dark skinned. Need I say more?
……………………………
Where has any picture of a Roman soldier been identified as Jesus? I have degree in Art History, and cannot recall any such case. Citations?
And there are thousands of paintings presenting Jesus as a Black man–as well as paintings showing him as he likely looked, as a Jew from the Levant.
Here is a traditional painting of Jesus from Ethiopia:

Clearly, Sabri S. does not want anyone to know this.

Thank God that Wall Street Journal has taken up this cause. Bless them.

Genocide is justified in the Koran.
Genocide Justified in the Koran
Koran 17:16-17: “When we decide to destroy a population, we send a definite order to them who have the good things in life and yet transgress; so that Allah’s word is proved true against them: then we destroy them utterly. How many generations have we destroyed after Noah? And enough is thy Lord to note and see the Sins of his servants ”
Here Allah, the God of the Muslims is clearly stating the exact method that he adopts when he commits genocide of an entire POPULATION. And why does Allah decide to destroy entire populations? Simply because they don’t believe in Allah and so Allah will kill them all, to take revenge. Next Allah is indulging in an unbelievable display of conceit. He is actually BOASTING about how many generations he has destroyed after Noah. If Allah had a list of his merits, no doubt genocide of numerous generations of people would top his list. Allah enjoys watching the annihilation of thousands of Non-Muslims at the hands of his pious followers, the Muslims.
Koran 8:37: “In order that Allah may separate the impure from the pure, Put All the impure ones (Non-Muslim), one on top of the another in a Heap and cast them into Hell. They will be the ones to have lost.”
The “All-Merciful Allah” is specifically instructing all “peace-loving Muslims” to heap up a mountain of corpses of the dirty disbelievers. Of course, in order to do this holy task for Allah, the Muslim must first go out and attack innocent non-Muslims and massacre them so that Allah’s wishes are fulfilled. Allah seems to have an inexhaustible thirst for the blood of innocents. Note that the reason given to massacre non-believers is that “Allah may separate the Impure from the Pure”. It has nothing to do with self-defense or protection as Muslims try to argue. The explicit purpose for this heinous crime is so that Allah can easily differentiate between the Muslims and Non-Muslims. This way, it becomes a lot easier for Allah and his angelic helpers to dump the heaps of murdered Non-Muslims into Hellfire.

+1, Great job, Mortimer.
Allah seems to have an inexhaustible thirst for the blood of innocents.
Yes, cuz allah is a demon, and that’s what muslims worship. He may be an imaginary demon, but that hasn’t stopped muslims from warring and terrorizing on his behalf. It started in the days of muhammad and continues to this day, millions suffer because of islam.
And you’re right, it’s not about “self defense” with muslims, it’s about them following their god’s commands to kill or enslave unbelievers and “idolators.” Terrorists who kill civilians like so many do aren’t defending themselves, they are asserting their god’s commands. No amount of good verses in islam could ever compensate for the evil ones that cause so much terror. It doesn’t matter how much good islam might contain, it’s still like a bowl of soup with a drop of cyanide that kills. Better to throw out the soup and start over. Islam is just too retarded to be reformed.

Oh the irony that these (racist) Islamic terrorists talk about the Christians “adopting the religion of the whites.”:
“They adopted the religion of the whites. There is no place here for friends of the whites, who are impure.”
If the ignorant Islamist scum were at all familiar with their texts, they might be aware that Mohammed was white. The Hadith refer to his whiteness multiple times:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tZxH4QYLRQY
They could also learn a little about history – (Muslim) Arab slave traders (and black Africans) were trading in black people centuries before the slave trade to the Americas. The Arab slavers sometimes castrated their slaves too, which had a death rate of up to 90%, from memory.
White people ended the centuries-long trade. Unfortunately, though, these black Islamists remain slaves – to Allah.
To be a Muslim requires one to be ignorant and suspend rational thought. Seems as though these Islamists are great Muslims.

It is well and good that they have spoken. Now might somebody enforce decency, if nothing more, in the field? Its only in the past decade or two that that has become such a forlorn hope. The innocent of the world look to the comfortable and competent west mostly in vain now.
Carol the 1st says
Western power is not unlimited and many others would exploit any futile drainage of its resources – isn’t China, for instance, making great advances into Africa? Islam is garbage with practical, useful candy tidbits thrown in here and there to confuse indiscriminate consumers. Almost every OTHER option in the world is far better and has proven itself so. The world needs to get its act together and muslims need to grow up and stop pretending they’re something they’re not.

Good for the Wall Street Journal for finally speaking up.
The only thing they are wrong about is this being new.

It doesn’t matter. Our politically correct politicians continue to bring these same Muslims to Christian countries and expect they can live beside Christians and Jews they couldn’t live beside in their own Muslim countries.

The more Infidels learn about the savagery of Islam the better. I don’t agree that this does not matter.
