The unfathomable jihad slaughter of Christians in Nigeria continues
unabated. The enemedia has ignored this genocide for years. But you can
bet your bottom dollar that if the Christians finally start to fight
back, and I wish they would, the enemedia will be shrieking “ethnic cleansing!,” which is just what they are doing in the Central African Republic.
Today
the devout Muslim group Boko Haram has killed under a hundred mostly
Christian villagers in northeast Nigeria, an official and local
villagers said.

– Suspected Islamist fighters killed at least 90 people in an early
morning attack on a village in remote northeast Nigeria on Sunday,
witnesses said.
The Boko Haram gunmen surrounded the village of
Izge, near the border with Cameroon, spraying it with bullets, setting
off explosions and burning down dozens of houses, they said.
“As I
am talking to you now, all the dead bodies of the victims are still
lying in the streets,” resident Abubakar Usman told Reuters by
telephone. “We fled without burying them, fearing the terrorists were
still lurking in the bushes.”
Borno state Police Commissioner
Lawal Tanko confirmed the attack but said he had no details of
casualties. Another witness, Lawan Madu, said hundreds of residents had
fled.
President Goodluck Jonathan ordered extra troops into
northeast Nigeria in May to try to crush the insurgents, who want to
carve a breakaway Islamic state out of largely Muslim northern Nigeria,
where they have killed thousands of people.
But the Islamists
simply retreated into the remote, hilly Gwoza area bordering Cameroon,
from where they have continued to mount deadly attacks that increasingly
target civilians.
Jonathan faces an election in a year’s time,
and the persistence of Boko Haram’s 4-1/2-year-old insurgency despite an
costly military operation against it remains a major headache.
Last
week, Boko Haram fighters in trucks painted in military colors killed
51 people in an attack on the Konduga local government area.
