Where are the calls for mosques, Islamic universities, imams, etc. to purge the ‘hate speech’ in islamic texts and teachings that call for genocide, jihad, creed apartheid? This hatred and bigotry spans the globe, and yet never is there discussion of the ideological and root cause. But one freak attack on a mosque at the bottom of the world and hellzapoppin —
‘Pure Genocide’: Over 6,000 Nigerian Christians Slaughtered, Mostly Women and Children
Is Genocide Threatening Nigeria’s Christians?
Story continues below advertisementIn recent days, dozens of Nigerian Christians have been murdered by Islamist jihadis. Unfortunately, the violence has remained largely unreported.In fact, I wouldn’t have paid close attention myself, if it hadn’t been for Israeli journalist and friend, Atara Beck. Last September, she contacted me about some confusing and disturbing private messages she’d received about extensive Christian bloodshed in Nigeria.A year later, and there’s no question about the veracity of the messages. By now we know that during 2018, more than 6,000 Christians have been killed or maimed by Islamist terrorists affiliated either with the notorious Boko Haram group – best known for kidnapping young girls – or with the Fulani tribesmen, whose anti-Christian brutality goes largely unanswered by Nigeria’s government.
Attacks against Nigeria’s Christian communities are escalating at an alarming rate.
On October 2, Morning Star News reported, “Armed Fulani herdsmen accompanied by militants in Nigerian army uniforms killed 17 Christians in their homes in the heart of Jos, north-central Nigeria, on Thursday (September 27), including four children, area sources said.”
Just days before, in mid-September, nearly 30 Christians drowned, trying to flee attacks by Fulani jihadis. World Watch Monitor reported:
“A pastor was one of at least 27 people who lost their lives following fresh attacks carried out by Fulani militants on five predominantly Christian communities in northeast Nigeria in recent days. Many of them drowned as they attempted to escape via the local river… [affecting] the villages of Gon, Bolki, Ndumusu, Yotti and Yanga, in Numan local government area (LGA), Adamawa state.”
Several Christians in Nigeria wrote to Beck, a journalist in Israel, about Islamist violence in their country. And why? Clearly, they thought Israelis – of all people – could understand their plight and might speak up on their behalf.
Indeed, colorfully-dressed throngs of Nigerian Christian pilgrims are a familiar sight in Jerusalem, singing and praying as they visit holy places. They are great supporters of Israel. They’re also aware that they share a common enemy with Israel’s Jews – radical Islamists threaten both nations’ safety and, whenever possible, attack local communities.
The widely publicized kidnapping of Nigerian girls in 2014, and the #bringbackourgirls hashtag, introduced many Westerners to the Boko Haram terrorist group.
Boko Haram kidnapped more girls in February this year, and now threatens to kill Leah Sharibu, a young Christian who has refused to convert to Islam. Leah’s desperate mother is pleading for her daughter’s release.
In 2015, the group pledged its allegiance to ISIS.Of course, Boko Haram aren’t the only murderers. I recently wrote to a long-time Nigerian friend (who must remain anonymous) asking for his insights about the lesser-known militant Fulani Herdsmen.
He replied:
“It is regrettable that the killings by the herdsmen have continued unabated. Worse still, the security agencies do not seem to be able to curb the killings. This has led to accusations that the government is either complicit or laissez-faire in its handling of the killings. It is definitely not showing enough concern about the issue, and can therefore be justifiably accused of failing in its primary duty of protecting the lives and property of its citizens.”
In April 2018, US President Donald Trump spoke directly to Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari (who happens to be a member of the Fulani tribe) during a joint press conference at the White House:
“We are deeply concerned by religious violence in Nigeria, including the burning of churches and the killing and persecution of Christians. It’s a horrible story… We encourage Nigeria and the federal state and local leaders to do everything in their power to immediately secure the affected communities and to protect innocent civilians of all faiths including Muslims and including Christians.”
As recent reports confirm, despite Trump’s direct appeal, nothing has been done to stop Nigeria’s jihadi attacks on Christians. In fact, there is widespread belief that some within Nigeria’s government collaborate with the Fulani group’s unabated incursions.
Meanwhile, untold thousands of terrified Nigerian refugees continue to flee vicious religious cleansing. Sickness, starvation and the sword pursue them. And the death toll rolls on.
Is the world turning a blind eye to another imminent genocide?

No condemnation from MUSLIMS who are the ones doing it.
Other Muslims KNOW this is going on.
Is Clarion Project for real?
Of any group they should know how EVIL ISLAM is. Instead look at the crap they have come out with:
IDIOTS! Indirectly they are pushing for censorship with this tripe. Holier than thou hypocrites! Islam is evil!

Christchurch Massacre: There Are No Excuses
This post will be short and to the point.
In the hours following this abomination, we’ve already seen posts in social media from people who are nothing more than online thugs writing things like “good riddance.”
We know there will be emails from those who will not condemn this tragedy, or will say “if they attack us what do they expect in return,” or “they invaded our shores and refuse to live our way of life.”
Every law-abiding citizen is entitled to live. They are entitled to pray. They are entitled to follow any faith they want. As long as the actions of an individual or group do not unfairly impinge on the freedoms of another individual or group they cannot be targeted for what they believe.
Muslims are as good as you. Muslims are as good as me. We are all born “in the image of god.”
(No, Islam is evil and those following are evil. Being born “in the image of god” is not a free pass for being evil. As a non Muslim, I don’t consider Christianity or Judaism evil religions. Have they forgotten Islam is a “conquering” ideology and the mosque at Christchurch is associate with AQ? Jeffrey Dahlmer was born “in the image of god” too so does that make him as good as YOU too? How about HITLER? He too was born ” in the image of god” too so should we be quiet about him too? Standing with evil takes away Clarion credibility for me.)
The hatred from radical Islamists, the far Left and in this case one Brenton Tarrant, who appears to be from the other end of the spectrum (even if he proves to be “mentally disturbed”), is killing us.
Literally.
We live in a deeply divided world, with the hate amplified by so-called technological advances. A racist sitting in their living room in Iowa or Pakistan can sow the seeds of hate with the press of a few keyboard buttons and some fairly rudimentary knowledge of social-media exploitation.
Let’s use Friday, March 15, 2019 as a day to bring people of all creeds closer to one another, rather than as a day that increases the divide between us. Those of us on the front-line of the fight against intolerance, and I am proud to say that is where Clarion sits, bow our heads in shame today and in memory of those who lost their lives.
As our colleague in the challenge to extremism Asra Nomani wrote in response to the manifesto written by the New Zealand killer: “My deep sorrow to the #christchurch #shooting victims & New Zealand. Islamists will exploit the tragedy to focus on white supremacists. Osama bin Laden spoke (A) against ‘the invaders.’ The New Zealand killer wrote (B) against ‘the invaders.’ Let us reject ALL extremism.”
Trump might had made a speech condemning the mass-murder but also sold weapons to the complicit Muhammadist regime & to Saudi Arabia which enslaves Africans & tortures atheists & children (FGM & indoctrination).
You’ve gotta be a Troll – vy anti-Trump –
The Saudis are in a proxy war with Iran. Which of those two states is less human?
Why haven’t those folks armed themselves? It takes little skill to turn out a functional bow, and the same for arrows, then despoil the islamists of their weapons. The Christ Hisownself has told us that owning a sword is more important than clothing yourself.
Validate your 2nd Amendment Rights=====> And Carry!
The Nigerian government stole the money that would have armed them.
Black Lives Matter could say a thing or two about this. But they realize it would mean offending their Muslim allies, and so it cannot be.
Come on! Would you be concerned about this if you couldn’t garner something political? No.
Well…where is CAIR’S Nihad Awad, and Minnesota’s Jaylani Hussein, and all their condemnation?
Well?
We can’t hear YOU..
Not needed. The West has done all it can. But the money was embezzled.
