The Daily Signal recognized a pattern last year with the Biden administration, and rightly termed it as an “outrageous betrayal” of Nigeria’s persecuted Christians when “religious freedom designations were declared” and “Nigeria once again was entirely ignored by Biden and company.” Genocide Watch has reported that in Nigeria, more than 6,000 Christians were killed in the 15 months from January 2021 through March 2022, and 45,644 died in the course of 13 years.
Joe Biden has now done it again. He has “reaffirmed his commitment to the longstanding relationship between the country and Nigeria……Africa’s largest democracy,” and has boasted of “the longstanding friendship between our two countries and peoples.”
Nigeria is technically a democracy, but it is a country in crisis, where Christians are suffering under the jihadist threat and the proliferation of jihad activity, and where revolutionary secessionist groups in the southeast create upheaval. It is hardly deserving of a pat on the back from Biden. His continued slap in the face to the Christians in Nigeria and complete exoneration of Nigeria’s government for any responsibility for the nation’s jihad problem is just another indication of Biden’s callousness toward Christians. But that should come as no surprise. A few months ago, Fox News reported that “anti-Christian hostility” is at “unprecedented levels” under Biden.
“Biden re-affirms commitment to U.S-Nigeria relationship — Nigeria,” by Oluyemi Ogunseyin, The Guardian Nigeria, September 10, 2023:
United States President Joe Biden has reaffirmed his commitment to the longstanding relationship between the country and Nigeria.
This was stated in a statement released by the White House following Biden’s encounter with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the G20 summit in New Delhi, India, on Sunday.
“President Joe Biden has reinforced our enduring commitment to the U.S.-Nigeria relationship and to the longstanding friendship between our two countries and peoples,” the statement read.
“President Biden welcomed the Tinubu Administration’s steps to reform Nigeria’s economy.
“He also thanked President Tinubu for his strong leadership as the chair of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) to defend and preserve democracy and the rule of law in Niger and the broader region.”…..

A person who is a corrupt as Biden and his corrupt fellow criminal and son, Hunter, would probably admire regimes that are as corrupt and foul as the mob who run Nigeria. Birds of a feather and all that. As for ignoring the ongoing murder of Christians in Nigeria and other African countries, it seems to be the same thing that many other western leaders do. Christians murdered by Muslims throughout Africa don’t seem to count at all to many political leaders.
GreekEmpress says
That was my first thought too, Mr. Gallagher: Do Hunter and other clan members have their fingers in a pie in Nigeria?
And a majority of Christians in Nigeria are Catholics—you’d think that President Biden would care about his co-religiionists,—but crickets.
Well, crickets from the Pope too, so there’s that.
tim gallagher says
Great minds think alike as the old saying goes, GreekEmpress. Just joking. The extreme level of corruption of this creature Biden and his son, Hunter, came to mind for me immediately. Two extremely low human beings is my impression I have of those two criminal types. As you say, they are Biden’s fellow Catholics (my brand of Christianity as well) who are being slaughtered, but I think many politicians and other people don’t notice what happens in Africa much at all.

tg, I very much want to convey to you one thing above all, being the Australian that you are, and that is that untold millions of Americans, like myself, utterly despise the cretin who is Joe Biden.
The more Australians who know about this the better. Ditto for the rest of the West.
Joe Biden is a disgrace to America, to the office of the Presidency and to the Constitution.

Wellington,I was just watching a show on Sky News out here, it is 7PM now, hosted by Peta Credlin, which I watch every week night and she had a couple of commentators talking about foreign affairs issues and Peta Credlin said that the Democrats seem to be thinking about getting rid of the demented Biden. Not sure if it is true..She said he has very low support, I think it was 40% for the upcoming election for President. They showed Biden lying , as he seems to continually do, this time about being at the site of the 9/11 attacks the day after the attack, when he was actually elsewhere. I share your contempt for Biden. A very low piece of crap is the way i would describe him. Why do so many politicians hang around for so long in the USA such as Pelosi, that McConnell who has frozen a couple of times, and the braindead Biden? Why don’t they retire gracefully and go fishing or do something like that. Must be megalomaniacs.

I just wrote a fairly long comment in reply to your comment, Wellington. It does not seem to have got through. Sorry about that. I can assure yoyu that I share your contempt for the lowlife and now thoroughly demented Biden. A lowlife piece of crap is how I would describe him. He should retire and get out of the way and stop being the damaging fool of a President that he is.
tim gallagher says
Oh, there is my comment now. All the best to you, Wellington. i hope you are going well.

Wonder whether Hunter is on the board of any Nigerian company or consortium?

Jesus warned, “The world hates you because it hated me.” He spoke more than once to His disciples on the subject of the hatred against Himself and against those who choose to follow Him and His Way.
He said Christians would be “hated by the world,” and would be “persecuted, and killed on account of His Name.”
He instructed, “When they persecute you in one city, flee to the next.”
mozlums in nigeria….including the government rulers such as the one lying biden has as a ‘friend,’…hate Christians. They are murdering them by the thousands…more than 50 thousand in recent years…and when the Christians “flee to the next” area or to what they believe is safety, they are followed by the murderous mozlums and murdered at the shelters.
biden doesn’t care. biden, the snake, pretends that he is Catholic; and even though many of those being murdered in nigeria are Catholic (for real), biden doesn’t give a hoot. biden and his pope are on the same page with the slaughter in nigeria, and with what the turkeys are doing, and what the pakistanis are doing. biden and his pope agree with bo, who said he would ‘stand with the mozlums’ when it comes down to the end result. bo said, ‘the future doesn’t belong” to those who tell the Truth about him, his religion, his mozlum brothers, and the book of evil filth. biden works for bo as a ‘front’ scum.
Jesus said this would be the case. But, He also promised a day coming (in Matthew 25) when He will “judge’ all and reward the ones who help His brothers; and punish those who refuse to help.
Perhaps biden should ask his pope what Jesus meant when He said those words in Matthew 25 and also chapter 7 about those ‘saying “Lord, Lord, did we not” and Jesus’ response, “I never knew you. Get away from Me, you workers of lawlessness.”

Plenty of capitalizations in your post, but you use a lower case p in the word Pope.
And as he’s a Catolic: his Pope?
Help me out here. Do other religions have a Pope?
Is this another example of your disdain for Catholocism?

Very hard to fathom both the USA and Canada are run by enemies both countries have ever known.Canada has been changed so drastic to the bad that how are men not removing these utter enemies of the people and dealing with them.in the proper ways.
tgusa says
I am sick of hearing these establishment types include the American people in their speeches and missives as if we the people are them and they are us.
How long before Bribem relates a story about his ancestors coming over to America on a slave ship way back when? He will probably site the fact that he played basketball on the journey while the Captain caressed his leg hair as well.

Funny.

Christians often do not have much oil to sell, and there is something wonderful about an ideology that hates Jews and Christians. It is almost like Marxism, which makes it a premium good to encourage and reward.

Killing Christians doesn’t seem to matter in the media or government. However Burning the Quran is just outrageous and needs to be stopped so as to not offend the new rulers of the world.
Scotsman48 says
America had a boycott against South Africa when that country was practicing Apartheid due to the manner in which Africans were being treated by people of European heritage but these days it appears that such morons like Old Joe and even that wee Popey fella are engaging with such a Government in Nigeria that treats other Africans even worse than the Apartheid Government of decades ago.
The silence of that wee Popey dude about the slaughter of his own flock in various islamic Nations is deafening to my ears.
Im not a Christian and Im outraged at this silence.
