Islamic Attacks on Nigerian Christians Escalate
2025-05-03
[PJMedia] Nigerian Christians are facing one of the most violent mostly peaceful years in two decades of genocide by Islamic jihadis, according to a Christian advocacy group.

Between January and the close of April, International Christian Concern (ICC) says that it had documented "a dramatic rise in attacks against Christian communities in Nigeria." In the span of a little over three months, ICC soberly reported, over 300 Christians were killed. Dozens more were kidnapped while thousands were displaced as Islamic jihadi violence continues to escalate in Nigeria. Unfortunately, Nigerian authorities still largely fail to address the raging violence or help its victims.

Today, on this feast of St. Joseph the Worker, commemorating Jesus’s foster father who had to flee with Mary and Jesus to Egypt to escape a murderous tyrant’s wrath, let us pray for the Christians in Nigeria and other countries who constantly face the bloodthirsty hatred of their own Herods.

The Nigerian states of Plateau, Kaduna, Benue, Ebonyi, and Nasarawa states continue to be the scene of religiously-motivated terrorism, per ICC:

#4  If asked to comment, ilhan omar would probably touch up her makeup , smile, and blame the Christians for wanting to live. Then she'd likely tell you to f#ck off.

Tlaib would probably deny that any of it had happened.

Aoc would probably ask her staff where Africa is.

The UN and the EU will probably blame Orban and Netanyahu.

In religious institutes all over the middle east, they will probably wonder why any of this would even make the news.

#3  At all the finest, most expensive American universities, not one member of the student body will know about these massacres.

Some of the faculty might know, but they'll likely remain silent -- or they'll blame the Christians for having impure thoughts, such as how to feed their families.

#2  If asked to comment on this latest jihadist massacre, Tucker Carlson would laugh his maniacal laugh,

and then he'd denounce Winston Churchill.

And then he'd probably excuse himself for cocktails at the club.

#1  If asked to comment, Matt Walsh would respond proudly and thoughtfully,

"I wish them well. ..... This has nothing to do with me ....... Jihad spreading around the globe for hundreds of years is not my problem. Is not America's problem."
