The Allied Democratic Forces is a jihad group that wants to impose Sharia on the DR Congo and the surrounding region.
“At Least 10 Christians Killed in DRC Attack,” International Christian Concern, June 22, 2022:
06/22/2022 DRC (International Christian Concern) – More than 10 Christians were killed on Tuesday, June 21, when an Islamist extremist group ambushed their three vehicles in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).
The attack occurred near the village of Makisabo, Beni. The Allied Democratic Forces (ADF), an Islamist extremist group, allegedly blocked the road, shot all the passengers, and set the vehicles on fire.
Activities along the Beni-Kasindi Road have since been halted. International Christian Concern (ICC) spoke to one of the taxi operators along this route, which is the only corridor connecting Uganda and the eastern region of the DRC.
“The 5 p.m. incident led to the death of our fellow drivers and our customers who wanted to reach home and be with their families,” said the taxi operator. “We are saddened that the ADF rebels continue to make our lives difficult here in Congo. There is no single day that they do not kill people. The villages are unsafe. The roads are unsafe. The towns are unsafe. We only live by God’s mercy. Now we cannot work because they have attacked Makisabo. We don’t know how long this will take before the road is opened again.”…
Church leaders have condemned the attack, calling it an atrocity against Christians.
“We know the war situation in Congo is complex, but we cannot ignore the fact that the rebel groups are targeting Christians,” explained a local bishop. “We have evidence that the killers have established ties with [the] Islamic State (ISIS) and survivors have confessed to us that they were asked to recite the shahada if they wanted to survive. We have pastors that have been killed for refusing to deny Christ and get Islamized. We are asking for prayers and support to take care of millions of refugees, widows, and orphans.”…

mozlums never tire of the bloodshedding in which they are so adept.
That, along with lying, raping, kidnapping and whining are their professions. There is no good , no value, no virtue in this evil creed dedicated to the worship of, and obedience to satan the devil.

I do not understand why this slaughter is not stopped. There are many things that the governments and military of these nations could such as set up traps for the slugs of Muhamad. Buses could house be filled with fully armed military and the same could be performed using civilian clad soldiers that could nihilate these monsters. Nigeria, Niger and Camaron could unite their efforts by combining their forces and eliminate the villages that aid and protect the slugs. Unfortunately, Nigeria has a Muslim slug, Buhari, that protects the Fulani and other murdering sub-humans.

All excellent ideas, Ray.
Unfortunately the “powers that be” apparently do not want to fix this.

Ray, some of these countries–as you note–have Muslim leaders and don’t really want to stop Jihad.
Then some, like Congo, are such basket cases–Congo has been politically unstable or in a state of outright civil war for decades. Jihadists look at this and exploit the vulnerabilities.

If 96% of DR Congo’s 100m population are nominally Christian, what is the real aim of ADF?
To attract funds from the Gulf and daub themselves with a veneer of respectability?

They just want to spread the Jihad everywhere. Islamic conquest can take decades or even centuries–Jihadists don’t care. It took them *700 years* to conquer Byzantium.
