Jihad Watch reports these kinds of stories out of Nigeria and elsewhere regularly. Few other news outlets do so. And there are many who believe that the problem is not the murders, but Jihad Watch’s reporting of them.
“Four Christians, Including A Priest, Murdered by Fulani Militants,” International Christian Concern, October 1, 2021:
10/01/2021 Nigeria (International Christian Concern) – Four Christians, including a Catholic priest, were murdered on Tuesday night in yet another attack by Fulani Militants in Nigeria.
“At around 6:50 pm Nigerian time, three persons on a motorcycle were… on their way from Jebbu Miango to Miango community (Plateau State), when the Fulani Terrorists laid ambush and attacked them,” said Davidson Malison, the National spokesman of Irigwe Development Association. “Their motorcycle was also burnt to ashes by the terrorists. Two were killed instantly and one sustained gunshot injuries.”
“In a separate attack same Tuesday evening, two persons were killed while working on their farm at Nzhwerenvi community in Jebbu Miango,” Malison added….
27-year-old Musa Wah, the sole survivor of the motorcycle attack, spoke to ICC while on his hospital bed:
“The attackers came with guns shouting ‘Allahu Akabar’ (Allah is greatest). I did nothing to them—the [Fulani militants] wanted to kill me because I am a Christian. My friends and our catechist were killed because they were Christians.”
Ezekiel Bini, the National Youth Leader of the Irigwe Youth Movement, is also confident that the murders were due to the victim’s Christian faith.
“The killing is against Christians,” he said. “Christians are persecuted daily in my community, most especially villages in Plateau state. The government continues to remain silent. We are left under the mercy of gunmen.”

“The government continues to remain silent.”
The government is under a Fulani muslim President.

It is true. Coward people don’t like when crimes commited by pious muslims are reported.

Will Pope Francis address this?
(I’m not holding my breath.)

Ahh, Mr Spencer, you give hitting the nail on the head.
Also, what is reported but left out in the report is often more important than what is in the report.

Nigeria: Muslims screaming ‘Allahu akbar’ murder four Christians, including a Catholic priest
………………
Just horrifying. And yes–many don’t want to hear these stories, and just blame the messenger.

The Western Media remains uninterested in the ongoing murdering of Christians by Muslims in Nigeria, it’s hard to say what they think is going on, they probably think it’s some tribal squabble that they don’t understand but make no attempt to find out and inform. I know if you were to post the story on YouTube within a video clip you probably would get a one week ban and the video would be taken down for hate speech against a ‘protected group’.
Muslim murderers are a protected within the auspices of YouTube’s health and safety team.
Result: everyone should stay away from morally corrupt YouTube and Twitter and post on BitChute and Rumble.

My question is will the POPE come out and make a statement condemning islamic terrorism, or is this just another mental health problem. Maybe the west will wake up when these murders of Christians comes to American neighborhoods with some regularity. Open borders will bring these muslim/islamic killers to our shores.
