Update on the ongoing genocide of Christians in Nigeria

I know that most Americans don’t care to read about the problems of nations on the other side of the world. But I urge you to read this story from the Epoch Times about the ongoing genocide of Christians in Nigeria (70,000 so far) at the hands of Muslim extremists.

It’s shocking that so many American media outlets trumpet their belief that “black lives matter,” yet give no coverage to the genocide of black Christians in Nigeria. But Lara Logan of Fox Nation has produced a documentary on it called “21st Century Terrorism Revealed.”

One thing it reveals is that if you think, “It’s a terrible tragedy, but it has nothing to do with us,” you couldn’t be more wrong. Bad American policy under Obama had a direct impact on causing this genocide. Obama and John Kerry worked to undermine the Christian President of Nigeria because he passed a ban on gay marriage, and helped elect a Muslim President who’s turning a blind eye to the slaughter of Christians – and who also kept the ban on gay marriage.

Nor is the danger likely to stay isolated to Nigeria. As Nina Shea of the Hudson Institute’s Center for Religious Freedom told the Epoch Times, this is “not simply a human rights and humanitarian crisis of genocidal proportions, it is also an American security concern. Today, Mahanga is a terrorist base camp; tomorrow, half of Nigeria, Africa’s most populous and economically prosperous country, could be one. The U.S. government must recognize the gains being made by Islamist extremists in this region under the approving eye of its President - an apologist President who continues to generously aid their efforts. Nigeria is rapidly becoming a global catastrophe.”

It may be too much to hope that the same President who just handed over Afghanistan to the Taliban and left our people behind will do anything about saving Christians in Nigeria or preventing that nation from becoming a new haven for global terrorism. But if enough Americans learn what’s going on and how it could come back to bite us, maybe our next President will.

    Like any religion, I’m sure that there are lipstick Muslims who when asked can go through the motions and put up a great face as being a faithful Muslim, but when everyone else is looking away, all they want is to live life and be happy and not bothered with all the hate and male chauvinistic , superior bs , better than thou, junk, written by a guy who hated everyone but himself. But till those people who are under the spell of that book understand that they need to change their ways to a peaceful way of life, this world will never see peace. Even they themselves kill each other over the most trivial things. And twist that books own passages to suit their actions against one another and against everyone else! You would think that by now, in 2021, cave man mentality would not be a dominant trait among any civilizations that are advanced enough to know how to fly an aircraft but there we are! Isn’t it strange that in Afghanistan the Telaban have given the Chinese a free pass to be there and operate but in China anyone that is of the Muslim religious community gets treated like a less than human! Wondering if those people in Afghanistan have ever been in China as guests? Just might change their attitude towards the Chinese!!

    Just want to thank you and staff again and again for the truth you bring us. I'm sorry you aren't President but I think God needed you to be there to tell us what's really going on.
    May God continue to bless you and keep you safe. Sure hope your daughter wins her election.

    Gov: I think it boils down to if you are black and Muslim you matter, if you are black and Christian
    you don't. It boils down to that.
