“Allah has bought from the believers their selves and their possessions against the gift of Paradise; they fight in the way of Allah; they kill, and are killed; that is a promise binding upon Allah in the Torah, and the Gospel, and the Koran; and who fulfils his covenant truer than Allah? So rejoice in the bargain you have made with Him; that is the mighty triumph.” (Qur’an 9:111)
“‘They were ages 3 to 18’—7 young Christians killed by Boko Haram suicide bomber,” by Lindy Lowry, Open Doors USA, August 12, 2020:
The scene was horrific. While the residents of the village of Nguetchewe in Cameroon’s far north region slept, Boko Haram militants attacked their community at approximately 11 pm on Saturday, Aug. 1—sending in two suicide bombers, one of whom was a young girl.
By the time she and another bomber had detonated the explosives they wore, more than 28 lives were lost, including a reported seven young Christians between the ages of 3 and 18. The attack continued into the next morning, forcing some 1,500 people to flee to the nearby town of Mozogo for safety.
Reportedly, the Nguetchewe Catholic Mission was Boko Haram’s target. In a phone call, a church leader in Nguetchewe told Open Doors: “I was at home when they came. We heard gunshots and then shouts from the vigilante committee alerting us. So we fled … When they got in, they first fired shots (randomly), and then people started running.”
Some of the women and children gathered to hide in the area where millet is beaten, the church leader said. That’s when the young girl came into the area saying her stomach hurt. The group let her in, completely unaware she was carrying a bomb.
“They were duped,” the church leader said. “She detonated the bomb and killed many people. It seems another suicide bomber targeted another group of people.”
At least seven of the victims were Christians. “We got reports that one other member who was injured and was taken to hospital has passed away, but I am still to confirm,” the church leader said. “For now, it’s clear that all in this group of victims were between the ages of 3 and 18, and included both boys and girls.”
Further details about the bombers, including their origins, are unknown though reports in recent years indicate that Boko Haram has kidnapped thousands of children….

media silence …
mortimer says
unconscionable silence … but they could not talk enough about the New Zealand mosque shooting.
Eur says
the murders in new zealand were outrageous, tremendous and disgusting. Muslims in the name of jihad do many christchurch frequently. And not only that, they impose their religious tyranny, their fucking theocracy. We have enough to put up with certain native nuts.

It’s the same here, we never hear about it what happens in Nigeria and Cameroon. I don’t like to watch TV because I know that they hide things and we are forced to pay a tax for it and it is counterproductive for me, I hate to do things I don’t want to do, so it’s better to read the news here.
mortimer says
The blood of the Christian martyrs continues to flow and Pope Francis refrains from criticizing Islam.
The Koran is a particularly anti-Christian book, calling for the suppression of Christianity and the enslavement of Christians.
Mohammed’s favorite sex slave was a Christian, so all Muslims think that arrangement is fine. One of Mohammed’s final commands was to expel Christians from the Arabian Peninsula (Arabic = al-jazira)
Wellington says
Endorsing and seconding yet another comment of yours, mortimer.
And what an absolute disgrace Pope Francis is. All things considered, and especially when taking into account the clout that a pontifex maximus has in modern times, he is arguably the single worst Pope in the history of the papacy.
Rufolino says
“Clout”, you say ?
This Pope has exhausted the Papacy’s clout. It only remains effective amongst the uneducated, the superstitious, and the primitive. (And women, to be perfectly truthful about Italy.)
Until recently the Pope’s Public Audiences were exciting events in Rome. You had to beg the Swiss Guard to grant you a ticket.
Today no problem. At audiences in St Peter’s Square, the seating is three-quarters empty.

Cameroon: Muslims target Catholic mission, murder 28, including 7 children ages 3 to 18

*Horrifying*. Targeting women and children.

Jihadists so often rely on their victims being decent and caring people. This bomber knew that the Christian victims would care about a young girl who said she was hurting–even though they had never seen her before.
God, I hate Islam.
Wellington says
You hate Islam, gravenimage, as I do, but BLM shows zero signs of hating Islam and this in and of itself, indeed many times over, speaks volumes.
The Ford Foundation gave 100 million dollars to BLM. No ending to the nonsense, ignorance and hypocrisy so prevalent in our time. Meanwhile, many black African Christians die at the hand of Islam and BLM cares not at all. Neither does the Ford Foundation.
Disgusting beyond words, reason, common sense and any decent set of principles.
gravenimage says
Yes–no condemnation of any of this Jihad genocide in Africa from BLM. Given that one of the founders is Muslim this sadly does not surprise. And yes–now much of the West seems bent on enabling this madness. This is classic appeasement–“please don’t hurt me!”. There are businesses and homes all over Oakland with signs claiming how much they love BLM.
LB says
I recently discovered that almost all “donations” to BLM go directly to ActBlue which funds democratic candidates and its campaigns. In other words, BLM is a money-laundering front for the Dems because they are forbidden by law to directly receive money from big corporations.
What is ActBlue you ask? From their website:
“ActBlue is a nonprofit technology organization established in June 2004 that enables left-leaning nonprofits, Democrats, and progressive groups to raise money on the Internet by providing them with online fundraising software. Its stated mission is to “empower small-dollar donors””
Basically, they just gather money for Leftist presidential candidates. But the scary thing about it is that the big corps who donate to BLM do it KNOWING that their money will go to the Dems. Who are the corps that intentionally circumvent the law and illegally influence the elections? Here’s the full list: https://www.cnet.com/how-to/companies-donating-black-lives-matter/
Now you know who to boycott.

Here’s some more companies to boycott: https://www.dailysignal.com/2020/07/07/these-18-corporations-gave-money-to-black-lives-matter-group/

Needless to mention that all of this mess with BLM, George Floyd, the riots, burnings, lootings, etc. has nothing, I repeat NOTHING to do with black people getting killed and EVERYTHING to do with tearing down Western civilization. Not a single person at the top of the anti-Western (read: anti-white) movement actually cares about black lives. Black people are just a means to an end for the satanic Democrats, and they will squeeze them dry for all their political victimhood points. As Sleepy Joe said “If you aren’t voting Democrat, then you ain’t black!” Ain’t that the truth…

LB,
Thank you for posting the link.
GreekEmpress says
I happened to see Trump on tv last night, and he made some comments about Christian persecution in the Middle East. Did anybody else see it?
James Lincoln says
GreekEmpress,
You are correct!
Do you think that “Sleepy Joe” or Karmala would say anything about this?
The following YouTube link is below:

Ad Koerbagh says
Muslims in their covenant are slave-soldiers of their god who lies stupid and malign about the Gospel telling the same thing.
Believing this fascist hoax goes beyond imagination.
Mauricio says
If they know about honor killings, why are they not aware about honor fighting? Why do they (muslims) have to be so cowards to attack while the others are sleeping?
Ad Koerbagh says
Because islam is a primitive retarded shame culture, not a civilized guilt culture.
So muslims feel shame when hurt, but no guilt hurting others.
There is no conscience, no honour code, or humanistic ethics, only religious rules.
No cowardice or fair fighting, just winning (and admiration) or losing (and contempt).
gravenimage says
Mauricio, “Honor Killings”–usually murdering vulnerable girls and women–are no more about real honor than is Jihad terror.
Ewanda says
Why leave it to Pope Francis to be the last or only word to speak for all Catholics on these horrendously savage attacks in the name of Islam? There are literally millions of priests and hierarchy throughout the world and none of them are joining their voices and power to publicize the atrocities that Islam is and has perpetrated throughout the world and throughout the centuries. Shame on them! Are they afraid that Jesus will fire them?!!
OLD GUY says
Islam the religion of the beast. Why the media and the christian leadership are silent is beyond disbelief . But then again our political leadership is silent also and defending of the islamic/muslim population.
There will be a day of reckoning and when it takes place it will be vary bloody. The longer we put up with the islamic terror the worse it will be.
