The 'Evil Called Barack Obama' and the Genocidal Slaughter of Nigerian Christians
FrontPage Magazine ^ | Apr 29, 2020 | Raymond Ibrahim

Posted on 04/29/2020 7:54:39 AM PDT by SJackson

New allegations concerning the “sheer wickedness” of Obama, Kerry, and Clinton.

Not only is Nigerian president Muhammadu Buhari behind what several international observers are calling a “genocide” of Christians in his nation—but Barack Hussein Obama played a major role in the Muslim president’s rise to power: these two interconnected accusations are increasingly being made—not by “xenophobic” Americans but Nigerians themselves, including several leaders and officials.

Most recently, Femi Fani-Kayode, Nigeria’s former minister of culture and tourism, wrote in a Facebook post:

What Obama, John Kerry and Hilary Clinton did to Nigeria by funding and supporting Buhari in the 2015 presidential election and helping Boko Haram in 2014/2015 was sheer wickedness and the blood of all those killed by the Buhari administration, his Fulani herdsmen and Boko Haram over the last 5 years are on their hands.

Kerry’s and Clinton’s appeasement of Boko Haram—an Islamic terror organization notorious for massacring, enslaving, and raping Christians, and bombing and burning their churches—is apparently what connects them to this “sheer wickedness.”

For example, after a Nigerian military offensive killed 30 Boko Haram terrorists in 2013, then secretary of state Kerry “issued a strongly worded statement” to Buhari’s predecessor, President Goodluck Jonathan (2010-2015), a Christian.  In it, Kerry warned Jonathan that “We are … deeply concerned by credible allegations that Nigerian security forces are committing gross human rights violations” against the terrorists.

Similarly, during her entire tenure as secretary of state, Clinton repeatedly refused to designate Boko Haram as a foreign terrorist organization, despite nonstop pressure from lawmakers, human rights activists, and lobbyists—not to mention Boko Haram’s countless atrocities against Nigerian Christians.

“Those of you that still love the evil called Barack Obama,” Fani-Kayode added in his post, “should listen to this short clip and tell me if you still do.”  He was referring to a recent Al Jazeera video interview of Eeben Barlow, a former lieutenant-colonel of the South African Defence Force and chairman of a private military company hired in 2015 by Jonathan, when still president, to help defeat Boko Haram.

“In one month,” Barlow said in the interview, “we took back terrain larger than Belgium from Boko Haram. We were not allowed to finish because it came at a time when governments were in the process of changing,” he said in reference to Nigeria’s 2015 presidential elections.  “The incoming president, President Buhari, was heavily supported by a foreign government, and one of the first missions [of Buhari] was to terminate our contract.”

On being asked if he could name the “foreign government,” the former lieutenant-colonel said, “Yes, we were told it was the United States, and they had actually funded President Buhari’s campaign, and the campaign manager for President Buhari came from the US.  And I am not saying the United States is bad—I understand foreign interests—but I would have thought that a threat such as Boko Haram on the integrity of the state of Nigeria ought to be actually a priority. It wasn't.”

Fani-Kayode was quick to add in his Facebook post that it would have been the priority had Obama not been president:  “I just thank God for Donald Trump,” the former minister said in the same post. “Had he been President of America in 2015 things would have been very different, Jonathan would have won, Boko Haram would have been history and the Fulani herdsmen would never have seen the light of day.”

Fani-Kayode and Barlow are not alone in accusing Obama of “heavily supporting” and “actually funding” a presidential candidate who, since becoming president, has increasingly turned a blind eye to the worsening slaughter of Christians at the hands of Muslims—that is, when not actively exacerbating it, including with jet fighters.  In 2018, former president Jonathan revealed that,

On March 23, 2015, President Obama himself took the unusual step of releasing a video message directly to Nigerians all but telling them how to vote… Those who understood subliminal language deciphered that he was prodding the electorate to vote for the [Buhari/Muslim-led] opposition to form a new government…  The message was so condescending, it was as if Nigerians did not know what to do and needed an Obama to direct them.

Between 2011 and 2015, and supposedly because they were angry at having a Christian president, Boko Haram slaughtered thousands of Christians, particularly those living in the Muslim majority north, and destroyed countless churches. In 2015—and thanks to Obama—Nigeria’s Muslims finally got what they want: a Muslim president in the person of Muhammadu Buhari.

As seen, however, not only did he immediately rescue Boko Haram from imminent defeat, as former lieutenant-colonel Eeben Barlow has now revealed; but atrocities against Christians have gotten significantly worse since Buhari replaced Jonathan—they are now regularly characterized as a “pure genocide”—particularly at the hands of Muslim Fulani herdsmen, the ethnic tribe whence Buhari himself happens to hail.  Thus according to a March 8, 2020 report titled, “Nigeria: A Killing Field of Defenseless Christians,”

Available statistics have shown that between 11,500 and 12,000 Christian deaths were recorded in the past 57 months or since June 2015 when the present central [Buhari-led] government of Nigeria came on board. Out of this figure, Jihadist Fulani herdsmen accounted for 7,400 Christian deaths, Boko Haram 4,000 and the ‘Highway Bandits’ 150-200.”

How and why Fulani tribesman have managed to kill nearly twice as many Christians as the “professional” terrorists of Boku Haram—and exponentially more Christians than under Jonathan—may be discerned from the following quotes by various Christian leaders and others:

Based on all these developments, statistics and accusations, it seems clear that the Muslim president is behind the unfolding genocide of Christians in Nigeria—and Obama helped.

Obama was never eligible.

He is not a natural born citizen.

Natural born citizens are naturally citizens because they are born here of citizen parents and could not be anything else and have only ONE nationality.

Obama was born a British subject/Kenyan national wherever he was born, even if born in the Lincoln bedroom.

Anyone born with more than ONE nationality is NOT a natural born citizen.

His Muslim Faith ... when liars gaffe they tell the truth.

Also, why should anyone be surprised? Islam was from the pit of Hell the moment Mohammad became its false prophet. It is the likely context from which the Antichrist will arise ... so what’s another seven years after more than 14 centuries of murder and mayhem?

Also just look at what Obama and Clinton were doing in Egypt just before this.

With their support of the Muslim Brotherhood, they very nearly started a genocide of Christian Copts in that country. The Copts can thank God that Al-Sisi did a coup against the Morsi-MB government, or the country would have fallen into civl war.

Former Nigerian Minister Faults Obama for Slaughter of Christians
Church Militant ^ | 2/21/20 | Martina Moyski Femi Fani-Kayode, Nigeria’s former Minister of Culture and Tourism, faults the Obama administration for backing 2015 presidential candidate Muhammadu Buhari, a Muslim. Buhari won the nation’s presidency and afterward, Fani-Kayode said, went soft on Boko Haram. “What Obama, John Kerry and Hilary [sic] Clinton did to Nigeria by funding and supporting [Muhammadu] Buhari in the 2015 presidential election and helping Boko Haram in 2014/2015 was sheer wickedness,” said Fani-Kayode, the country’s former Minister of Culture and Tourism. “The blood of all those killed by the Buhari administration, his Fulani herdsmen and Boko Haram over the last five years are on their hands.”

A few years before he died is the 1990s my father-in-law gave me “Hidden Beast” by Ellis Skolfield. He lays out a convincing presentation the MohamMad is the literal false prophet in the Book of Revelation. Of course, at the time he wrote Islam wasn’t well known. I had to read it again after 9/11.

Prior putative president aka soetobama (whatever his real name is) is pure anti-American evil. He was and is the veritable enemy within.

Why not, we do it in Israel and elsewhere. In this case it was President Goodluck Jonathan advised by Joseph Trippi of Howard Dean fame vs. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari with David Axelrod in his corner. What do I know, but if I’m a President I hire Obama’s man, not Dean’s. Goodluck, nice first name, not a substitute for political hiring judgement.

I agree, but it's bi partisan foolishness. GWB supported inclusion of the Brotherhood in Egyptian elections, unsuccessfully. He was more successful in overcoming Israeli and quieter palestinian objections to include political, unarmed, Brotherhood offshoot Hamas in their elections. With unfortunate results. Mostly unfortunate for the palestinians, though with Abbas ruling Gaza things wouldn't be much better for them.

Probably in the same White House closet that held Hillary's billing records till the statute of limitations ran out. Would you doubt there's a secret space in the White House to hide embarrassing documents? Wouldn't the entrance be in a closet? I see a movie here.
