At least 81 killed in Boko Haram attack in Nigeria; civilians shot, bodies run over
By Samuel Smith, CP Reporter, June 11, 2020:
Authorities in the Borno state of Nigeria said Wednesday that at least 81 people were killed in an attack on a nomadic community believed to have been carried out by militants aligned with the Islamic extremist groups Boko Haram or Islamic State West Africa Province.
The Borno government in northeast Nigeria released a statement Wednesday explaining that residents described how militants in armored tanks and trucks attacked the Faduma Kolomdi community in the Gubio local government area on Tuesday morning.
Along with killing dozens in the community, it’s believed that the militants also abducted seven individuals, including the head of the village, and women and children.
A video posted on social media shows dead bodies scattered out across a dirt field.

The incident reportedly lasted hours. Borno State Gov. Babagana Umara Zulum traveled to the community on Wednesday in the wake of the attack.
According to the government’s statement, a male witness told the governor that the armed men came to the village at around 10 a.m. on Tuesday.
“They gathered us and said they wanted to deliver religious sermon to us,” the unnamed resident was quoted as saying in the statement. “They asked us to submit whatever arm we had. Some villagers gave up their dane guns, bow and arrows.”
The survivor said the militants then began shooting “at will.”
“Even children and women were not spared, many were shot at close range,” the man said. “Many started running.”
Five people were evacuated to a hospital for treatment, according to the state.
“We have buried 49 corpses here while another 32 corpses were taken away by families from the villages around us,” the resident said. “The insurgents abducted seven persons including our village head. They went away with 400 cattle.”
A resident of a nearby village also verified what the survivor told Zulum, the government said.
Zulum described the attack as “barbaric and unfortunate.” He also noted that around the same number of individuals were killed in an attack last year in Gajiram.
“The only solution to end this massacre is by dislodging the insurgents in the shores of Lake Chad,” the governor said. “Doing so will require collaborative regional efforts.”
The Nigerian government has faced criticism over its inability to thwart attacks on civilians carried out by Islamic extremist groups, including Boko Haram and its offshoot, Islamic State West Africa Province.
While the Borno government’s statement placed blame on Boko Haram militants, other reports have implicated militants aligned with ISWAP. No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack.
Since its insurgency began over a decade ago, Boko Haram has killed and abducted thousands and displaced millions from their homes. The group has killed Muslims and Christians.
In 2016, Boko Haram pledged allegiance to the Islamic State but splintered soon after amid disagreements over leadership.
According to the government, the militants did not set the Gubio village on fire as often happens during their attacks. There are also fears that the death toll could be higher than 81.
“The bodies were strewn over a large area as the insurgents pursued their victims, shooting them and crushing them with their vehicles,” Ibrahim Liman, a member of a government-backed anti-jihadist militia, told AFP on Wednesday. He said the death toll was around 69.
Gubio resident Modu Ajimi told The Washington Post that he lost four cousins in Tuesday’s attack. He found their dead bodies in the dirt field.
“Their bodies bore a bullet hole in almost every part,” Ajimi said.
The coronavirus pandemic has not stopped Boko Haram or ISWAP from carrying out attacks against villages in both Borno and Adamawa in recent months.
The Nigerian government has also faced criticism from international activists for failing to thwart attacks in Middle Belt states where thousands have been displaced.
“The most essential responsibility of any government is the protection of its own citizens,” U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom Commissioner Johnnie Moore, an evangelical human rights advocate, wrote in a tweet. “Nigeria’s government keeps failing at this. It is time for the U.S., U.K., [European Union] and others to evaluate every single area of cooperation until the Nigerian’s fix this.”
According to The Washington Post, ISWAP has continued to stage attacks on Army bases and is collecting taxes from residents in villages where it’s attempting to take control.
The International Crisis Group reported last year that ISWAP’s approach to law and order is “extraordinarily harsh and violent.”
“It metes out the full range of punishments it believes the Quran to mandate, including cutting off the hands of alleged thieves and killing adulterers, though some units are reportedly more lenient than others,” a May 2019 report states. “It meets perceived threats to its fiscal base (fishing without authorization, failure to pay requisite taxes) and security (using mobile phones in areas where they are forbidden, which is interpreted as spying) with brutal beatings, sometimes even executions.”
Nigeria is listed on the U.S. State Department’s watch list of countries that engage in or tolerate severe violations of religious freedom. Advocates in the U.S. are calling for the appointment of a special envoy to assess the human rights crises in Nigeria.
“In Nigeria, ISIS and Boko Haram continue to attack Muslims and Christians alike,” Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Wednesday. “ISIS beheaded 10 Christians in that country just this past December.”

The current president, raghead, Muhammadu Buhari wont do anything about it and neither will these so called human rights groups. Muhammadu Buhari took office on May 29, 2015, as the 15th president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Obama was thrilled!

Oh I’m sure the muslum president of Nigeria is doing something about the ongoing genocide of Christians — he’s facilitating it, either indirectly or directly.

What it really demonstrates is the utter immoral degeneracy and decadence of the dying atheist West because clearly some genocides have been deemed acceptable as well as the myth of the “moderate”, “secular”, “good” muslum.

If anything he supports the jihad. As soon as he became president he removed the white mercenaries who had wiped out Boko harem in Nigeria(unfortunately 10% fled across the borders) and while they were recovering allowed the Fulani herdsmen to run amok and wipe out Christian farming villages continuing Boko’s job. It is the aim of Nigerian muslims to wipe out all Christians and they started doing this in the BiAfran war.

Where are allah those non-islamist muslums? Why aren’t they protesting in the streets? Why aren’t they raising money for the Nigerian Christian victims’ families? Why aren’t they lobbying the UN to declare what is being perpetrated against Nigerian Christians by f’ing muslums a genocide? Any answers 창백한 벌레 of sanctimony?

Gangnam, although very upper scale (price for an older, very small … 680 sq. ft., one bedroom, one bath unit coming in at around One Million Six Hundred Thousand U.S. Yankee Greenback Dollars), it ain’t nothin’ compared to Samseong-dong. It could be argued that Samseong-dong is a part of Gangnam, but no one from Seoul will believe that.
When the Make Believe “Korean” wife’s family found out about latrine spittoon, kicked her out from their Samseong-dong apahtue, they disowned her and sent her packing to the pictured abode.

I think that it is. Just as you pictured it as a late middle-aged spinster, I did as well. Remember, in today’s world, there can be two “wives”.
A friend of mine, deeply immersed in being a born-again Christian of the Baptist persuasion … seems like they even said a five minute grace, prior to having a glass of water …
In any event, after sending his daughter to Vassar and paying for her to stay in NYNY for two years, following graduation, as an “intern”, she met someone and fell in love. She’d never dated so it was a big deal, when she brought HER home to meet the folks.
TOO forkin’ funny!
When they got married, I asked her father … as I don’t know nothin’ ’bout birthin’ babies, which one was the husband and which one was the wife.
I was informed that the accepted terminology is for each to refer to the other as “their wife”.
It’s hard for an old fart, like me, to keep up with the times. Especially, when it comes to homosexual marriages. So, both latrine and the Make-Believe “Korean” wife are, more than likely “wives”.

Democrats like: Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer .. recently wore Kente – slave trader scarfs.
Kente cloth scarfs were worn by Ashanti royalty in West Africa who captured, enslaved, and sold their fellow blacks.. Democrats were expressing solidarity with the slave traders.

Which COVID-19 vaccines
will be derived from aborted children’s cell lines?
There are now more than 120 COVID-19 vaccine candidates in development. Navigating the ethics of using them will be a challenge.
By Jonathan Abbamonte
Thu Jun 11, 2020 – 9:33 am EST
…
June 11, 2020 (Population Research Institute) — The race is on to find a vaccine for COVID-19. The good news is that many of the world’s largest vaccine companies are developing promising vaccine candidates using ethically-derived cells. The bad news is that many of the leading vaccine candidates for the 2019 novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV2) are being developed using fetal cell lines that were originally derived from the tissues of aborted babies in the 1970s and 80s.
…
Worse still, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has been producing samples of the SARS-CoV2 virus for biotech and pharmaceutical companies to use for vaccine research using fetal HEK-293T cells (a decedent cell line of HEK-293).
Moderna is also receiving substantial research assistance for its COVID-19 vaccine from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) which helped develop the vaccine and conduct clinical trials. NIAID is a division of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) led by Dr. Anthony Fauci.

Not once has fetal ore embryonic material proven to do anything but harm a person when experimented on people. Tumors are a popular result but these idiots are determined to keep banging their head against a wall believing they can train immature embryonic material to do what they want. Sign. ADULT stem cell has been very successful in helping people.

BLM should be speaking out about this slaughter, but, seems these particular black lives make no difference. This is insanity and horrendous. Evil IS showing how strong it is. I remember the movie Hotel Rhuanda and the sickening scenes of the slaughter. I fear America is headed that way. But, the majority of the bodies will all be white because the rich and powerful are fomenting the hatred toward whites who are not powerful and rich. Governments are killers of society in ALL COUNTRIES.

BLM themselves are calling for dead cops and the lynching of white people and for racial segregation so I’m not sure if they’ll be speaking out regarding this slaughter either. It doesn’t fit their narrative.

If most of the ex British colonies of the old empire had stayed under British rule they would be much more successful and civilised than they are today.
The only ex colonies that I can think of that are modern day success stories are the ones that were heavily populated by British people. Even South Africa is now sinking into complete lawlessness and savagery now that it’s in the hands of a socialistic black government and the once prosperous country of Rhodesia has completely lost its way forever. The Empire before its fall had turned into a great mutual support for all other countries within that club and if it had been allowed to carry on it would surely be flourishing. But that vast empire needed to be governed with discipline which would be terribly unfashionable today.

Islam is a malignancy in that parts of its scripture are not compatible with freedom, or even human dignity. Until and if those parts are expunged, Islam will remain an authoritarian political system masquerading as a religion.

More examples (read damning evidence) of the ‘glorious’ accomplishments of the “religion of peace”.
And, as usual, all we hear from the news media is… a deafening, ominous silence!
That such primitive savagery is still occurring in the 21st century, and pretty much being tolerated by the rest of the civilized world, is as shamefully disgusting as it is nightmarish..
And these are the very people the left and the Democrats want to give financial aid to and bring into our country in huge numbers!!

More investigation into the origins of Boko Haram please, specifically the relationship between Mohammed Yusuf, Jafar Mahmud Adam, Abubakar Gumi and Saudi Arabia. Who is secretly working with and backing Saudi Arabia? When we find the answers, we find the real bad guys.
