4 killed in another attack on Catholic church in Burkina Faso

French Press Ageny– AFP, May 27, 2019 (thanks to the Religion of Peace):

Four people were killed Sunday at a Catholic church in northern Burkina Faso in the latest in a series of attacks on Christian targets in the region, according to a bishop in the region and a security source.

“The Christian community of Toulfe was the target of a terrorist attack which gathered for Sunday prayers. The attack left four of the faithful dead,” the Bishop of Ouahigouya, Justin Kientega, said in a statement.

Earlier a security source has said three people were killed in the attack.

“Heavily armed individuals attacked the church… as the faithful were celebrating Sunday mass” in the town of Toulfe, the source said, adding that three people were killed.

Last week gunmen killed four Catholics in a religious procession, the day after a priest and five parishioners were murdered at mass.

Also last week, French special forces freed four foreign hostages in the former French colony during an overnight raid that cost the lives of two soldiers.

Burkina Faso’s population is around two-thirds Muslim and one-third Christian.

The semi-desert country has suffered from increasingly frequent and deadly attacks attributed to a number of terrorist groups, including Daesh terror group’s Greater Sahara branch.

The raids began in 2015 in the north before targeting the capital Ouagadougou and other regions, notably in the east.

Nearly 400 people have been killed since 2015 — mainly in hit-and-run raids — according to an AFP tally.

Terrorist groups have targeted both Christian and Muslim clerics in a country where traditionally both religions have co-existed peaceably.

France has deployed 4,500 troops in Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger and Chad in a mission codenamed Barkhane to help local forces flush out terrorists.

The last slaughter (Last week gunmen killed four Catholics in a religious procession, the day after a priest and five parishioners were murdered at mass.) didn’t hit the international news. Any takers about this one making it?

I ain’t worried ’bout no “HATE”. The number of Left Wing-Nut Regressives that hate me are called “Legion” for they are many. However, I AM worried about moslems that brutally murder human beings.

Funny how none of them try down here in AZ where we can carry 24/7….I don’t worry about any of them…I worry more about our politicians that enable them to do the killings.

Unless there’s an “ethnic cleansing” of Muslims from the region, this sort of thing will continue.

Muslims need to be banned from every nonMuslim nation on the earth.

All non-muslims inside islamic nations are welcome to migrate anywhere in our nations they want to!

They won’t do this garbage…

Why don’t African-Americans complain more about this? I guess maybe not all black lives matter after all. 🙁
