If one believes that the one true god has commanded such killing (cf. Qur’an 2:191, 4:89, 9:5), then to engage in it is a blessed act, and such killing would be a fitting gift to others who also believe it to be divinely commanded. “Farewell Gifts To Buhari, Ors: 700 Christians Slaughtered In May, 1,100 […]
Nigeria: Islamic jihadis massacre 134 Christians, mostly women and children
Less than a week ago, Jihad Watch reported about a thousand Christians in Nigeria being murdered in the first 100 days of 2023. The slaughter continues, with over three million people displaced. Christian persecution is largely ignored in the West by media, as is the ongoing jihad. To call it out renders one “Islamophobic.” The […]
Nigeria: Muslims murder over 50 people in majority Christian area, cops dispute number of casualties
As the Islamic jihad rages in Nigeria, authorities deny its motivating ideology and attempt to diminish its magnitude. “Fulani Herdsmen Resume Attacks, Kill Over 50 Persons In Benue Communities As Nigerian Police Dispute Casualty Figures,” Sahara Reporters, March 7, 2023: Although the police in Benue State said the casualty figure was not up to 50, […]
Nigeria: Muslims murder Christian couple and their 17-year-old daughter
The world yawns. This story doesn’t fit the narrative that Muslims are always and in every case victims. And so as far as the media is concerned, it doesn’t exist. “Christian Couple and Daughter Murdered by Suspected Fulani Militants in Nigeria,” Barnabas Fund, December 1, 2022: Islamist Fulani militants are suspected of carrying out the murders […]
Nigeria: Muslims murder more than 70 Christians in one village, government does nothing
The establishment media doesn’t think this is newsworthy, because it doesn’t fit their narrative, in which Christians are always white oppressors and Muslims are always brown victims. When the news doesn’t fit the paradigm, so much worse for the news. “Fulani Terrorists Kill More than 70 Christians in Central Nigeria,” Morning Star News, October 25, […]
Nigeria: Muslims murder six Christians, shooting some and killing others with machetes
You’d only hear about this from the establishment media if the roles were reversed, which they would not be and should not be. The venerable news outlets are propaganda sources for a particular political perspective, and this news item doesn’t fit their paradigm. “Christians Slain in Central Nigeria, Animists Attack in South,” Morning Star News, […]
Nigeria: Muslims murder 68 Christians in one state over the last few months
Time for the UN, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch to start decrying “Islamophobia” in Nigeria. “Nigeria: Over 68 Christians in one state killed within two months,” by Fionn Shiner, ICN, July 19, 2022: At least 68 Christians have been killed – with many more abducted or displaced – in the last two months in […]
Nigeria: Muslims murder 33 Christians in one week
More news that doesn’t fit the establishment narrative, and so will never be reported by the media elites. “Fulani Herdsmen Kill 33 Christians in One Week in Benue, Nigeria,” Morning Star News, April 28, 2021: JOS, Nigeria (Morning Star News) – Muslim Fulani herdsmen on Monday night (April 26) killed 10 Christians who had taken refuge in […]
Trump sends State Department to Nigeria amid massacres of Christians by jihadists
Nigeria is about 50% Christian. Those Christians are being increasingly subjected to a ruthless persecution, not only by Boko Haram but also by so-called Fulani “herdsmen” who are also jihadists. Since human rights organizations and other global bodies do not adequately take up the cause of Christian and other religious minority persecution at the hands […]
Nigeria: Muslims murder over 800 Christians, injure over 800 more, destroy over 100 churches
Will the Islamophobia never end? “Nigerian Middle Belt state: 800+ Christians killed, 800+ injured, 100+ churches destroyed,” World Watch Monitor, October 26, 2016 (thanks to Pamela Geller): Nigeria’s Middle Belt is the scene of ever-continuing attacks on Christian farmers by mainly Muslim Hausa-Fulani herdsmen, including this past week where attacks have occurred in both Kaduna […]
