These monstrous acts of jihad go unreported in compliance with sharia law. Shame, shame, shame on the left. And don’t get me started on African American leadership, who remain silent in the face of jihad and instead incite to Jew-hatred.
Muslim Fulani Herdsmen Kill 13 Christians, Wound Three in Central Nigeria

Story continues below advertisementJOS, Nigeria, January 10, 2020 – Armed Muslim Fulani herdsmen killed 13 Christians in Plateau state, Nigeria on Wednesday (Jan. 8), the same day four students were kidnapped from a Catholic seminary in Kaduna state.
About 20 herdsmen attacked the predominantly Christian village of Kulben, in Plateau state’s Mangu County, at about 8 p.m., area residents told Morning Star News. The 13 dead were all members of the Church of Christ in Nations (COCIN), as were three people wounded in the assault, they said.
“They were shooting with guns in all directions, forcing the villagers to scamper into surrounding bushes,” area resident Michael Mutding, 40, told Morning Star News in a text message. “Corpses of those killed have been evacuated by soldiers and police to the mortuary of Mangu Cottage Hospital; and all the victims are members of COCIN.”
Bala Fwengje, a legislator representing the area in the Plateau State House of Assembly, said in a statement that the attacks came in spite of efforts by security agencies.
“This attack on my people by these herdsmen comes as a rude shock to us, as efforts have been made by security agencies to curtail such incessant attacks on our people,” Fwengje said. “It is a sad thing that these attacks are still being carried out by the herdsmen on our people without provocation.”
[….]Kidnapped
Outside Kaduna city, capital of Kaduna state, four students were kidnapped from The Good Shepherd Catholic Major Seminary on Wednesday night (Jan. 8), an official said.“Armed bandits” abducted the seminarians after the assailants shot sporadically at students, professors and staff members between 10:30 p.m. and 11 p.m., according to the Rev. Joel Usman, registrar of the institution.
The seminary, which trains students for Roman Catholic priesthood, is located in Kakau village along the Kaduna-Abuja highway.
“The Good Shepherd Major Seminary was attacked by armed bandits yesterday, Jan. 8, between 10:30-11 p.m.,” Usman said. “After a head count of students with security agents, four seminarians have been declared missing.”
Contacted by phone, Usman told Morning Star News, “Yes, we were attacked last night as I said in the statement I issued earlier this morning. Kindly pray for the release of these students.”
ISWAP Executions
A break-away faction from Boko Haram, the Islamic State’s West Africa Province (ISWAP), on Dec. 26 released a video in Nigeria of the terrorists executing 11 people whom they said were Christians.Saying the executions were in retaliation for the killing of Islamic State (IS) leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi in an October U.S. raid in northwestern Syria and his likely successor in a separate attack, a voice on the video says those executed are Christians as a message “to the Christians in the world.”
The identities of those killed, however, were not known. Timed near Christmas for maximum media exposure, the video showed executions thought to be ordered by IS around the world since the killing of Baghdadi and his likely successor, IS spokesman Sheikh Abu al-Hassan al-Muhajir.
The ISWAP faction left the Islamic extremist Boko Haram in 2016.
The 56-second video, released to Muslim Nigerian journalist Ahmad Salkida, shows the captives in orange tunics and kneeling as the terrorists stand behind them in black balaclavas. One captive is shot in the head, and the terrorists then slash the throats of the 10 others.
“This message is to the Christians in the world,” a voice-over says in Arabic and Hausa. “Those who you see in front of us are Christians, and we will shed their blood as revenge for the two dignified sheikhs, the caliph of the Muslims [Baghdadi], and the spokesman for the Islamic State, Sheikh Abu al-Hassan al-Muhajir, may Allah accept them.”
President Buhari commented through a media aide’s statement.
“We should, under no circumstance, let the terrorists divide us by turning Christians against Muslims, because these barbaric killers don’t represent Islam and millions of other law-abiding Muslims around the world,” Buhari said.
United Nation Secretary-General Antonio Guterres sent condolences through his spokesperson, Stephane Dujarric, to families of the executed Christians and the Nigeria government.
“The secretary general is deeply concerned about reports that civilians have been executed, and others abducted, by an armed group in northern Borno State, northeastern Nigeria,” Dujarric said. “He expressed his deepest condolences to the families of the victims and reiterates the solidarity of the United Nations with the people and government of Nigeria.”
Last month Boko Haram released a video of 11 men held captive, and one of them says Christians are among them. Identifying himself as Bitrus Bwala, a principal lecturer at the College of Education in Gashua, Yobe state, he pleads for the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) and Nigeria’s government to urgently negotiate with the terrorists in order to save their lives.
Bwala says in the video that the captives saw Action Against Hunger aid workers before they were executed, and that captured Christian high school student Leah Sharibu “is still here.”
“We therefore appeal in particular to President Muhammadu Buhari to do whatever is within his reach to rescue us,” he says. “We equally appeal to our various governors to come to our aid and rescue us. The leadership of Christian organizations, we appeal to you to liaise with the federal government and push for the rescue of all captives here.”
The Rev. Samson Ayokunle, CAN president, said Bwala and the 10 other men in the video released in December were all Christians who were kidnapped on Nov. 27.
“The government has not secured their freedoms or said anything about them,” Ayokunle said in a statement. “If criminals are invading the Christian communities, killing and abducting unchallenged, what do we call it if it is not persecution? How many terrorists, Fulani herdsmen killers and bandits are in the custody of the security agencies? How many of them have been arraigned in court?”
Nigeria ranked 12th on Open Doors’ 2019 World Watch List of countries where Christians suffer the most persecution.

As usual no comment by the Pope.
He’s too busy dreaming about his meaningless “universal” religion and getting the UN on board to enforce it globally.
What a fool….

Off topic – Quds Forces leader Qassem Soleimani
Coach is the cheaper way to fly. They could have saved even more money by sending him back in a smaller coffin.
There was not much left of him. His limbs were blown off and he was toast.

Genocide and ethnic cleansing the hallmarks of muslums wherever they gain power (e.g. Lebanon, Kashmir, Pakistain, Bangladesh, Indonesia [i.e. E. Timor]).

The Christians in Nigeria need to get guns and fight back. This is exactly why the USA has a second amendment. If there was a few guns in the village that were owned by deputized individuals, it would make a difference.

The government of Nigeria is run by f’ing muslums (i.e. their president is a f’ing muslum). They’re hardly going to allow Christian kafir to be armed against their muslum persecutors/murderers.

In other words, its still business as usual in Nigeria. Time to stop sending it financial aid.
Didn’t Trump have a name for countries like this? A something-hole? And the press went wild. Well, right now the press is pretty quiet.
Its as Omar would say, some people did something over there. No big deal, right?

I wonder if he really believes that carp — or if he’s only trying to protect the fewer and fewer Christians who live in muslum lands.

He believes it. As the ‘false prophet’ of end time scripture, he has an important role to fill. He aids the development of the one world system that the Antichrist assumes control over. It all must come to be before the end comes.

THE RELIGION OF PIECES STRIKES AGAIN AND NOT A PEEP FROM THE POPE OR ROME .THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IS SILENT AND IN THEIR SILENCE IS COWARDICE. IT’S TO BAD THAT REAL CHRISTIANS HAVE BEEN BRAIN WASHED INTO TURNING THE OTHER CHEEK. IT’S WHAT MAKES CHRISTIANS SO EASY TO WIPE OUT. THEY ARE AFRAID TO FIGHT BACK.

The Pope also HATES guns and want US to disarm.
Not only is he a hypocrite but sees himself as more important than others.

May I suggest their sponsor church sent them some assault rifles and tell them to pray in shifts, while one group stands watch on the wall for the “roaring lion who seeks to destroy” i.e. satan’s imps
“Let the one who does not have a sword, sell his cloak and buy one” Luke 22:36
Stop being victims and be warriors for Christ – just like King David would be/shall be.

How I wish these Christians would arm themselves like the ‘machine gun preacher’ of southern Sudan and northern Uganda, and ‘take out’ these disgusting Muslim murderers. More than 75,000 Christians murdered in Nigeria over the last 20 years and not a peep from the disgusting, liberal-dominated, West or the horse’s arse Pope Francis. They’re more into weeping over the death of the savage Soleimani and condemning Donald Trump for doing a good job.
