...51 Muslims murdered in a mosque in New Zealand gets worldwide media coverage for months, but the ongoing genocide of Christians by Muslims in Nigeria gets zilch
A jaw-dropping 3,462 Christians have been killed at the hands of Islamic militants in Nigeria just this year so far, but the mainstream media have barely mentioned it all.
Neonnettle The Nigeria-based nonprofit, The International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law, reported the death figures mid-way through 2021 are almost the same as the entire number of 2020.
The group said:
This number further represents daily average Christian deaths of seventeen and second-highest since 2014 when over 5000 Christian deaths were recorded in the hands of Boko Haram and Jihadist Fulani Herdsmen. While Boko Haram killed over 4000 Christians in 2014, the Jihadist Fulani Herdsmen accounted for 1,229 Christian deaths. In our last report issued on 11th May 2021, covering January to April 2021, we found that no fewer than 1,470 Christians were hacked to death, and in the past 80 days or 1st May to 18th July 2021, not less than 1, 992 Christian lives have been lost.
The group also highlights the sharp rise in the abduction of Christians and damaged churches:
We also found that no fewer than 780 additional Christians were abducted in 80 days or 1st May to 18th July, whereas between 1st January and 30th April 2200 were abducted. This brings the total number of the abducted Christians since January to 3000, out of which at least three out of every abducted thirty Christians were most likely to have died in captivity, thereby indicating additional secret death in jihadists’ captivity of 300 Christians… The number of Churches threatened or attacked and closed or destroyed or burnt since January 2021 is also estimated to be around 300, with at least ten priests or pastors abducted or killed by the jihadists.
...Nigeria is “divided roughly in half between Muslims, who live mostly in the north, and Christians, who live mostly in the south. The nation has “the world’s fifth-largest Muslim population and sixth-largest Christian population,” leading to “heavy persecution of Christians by Muslims in northern Nigeria.”
Tennessee Republican Senators signed a letter encouraging the vaccine. They also get money from Pfizer.
Excerpt:
...In sum, these senators have received a total of $67,050 in campaign contributions directly from Pfizer. And 58% of those contributions have gone directly to Lt. Governor Randy McNally and Senator Jack Johnson (Senate Majority Leader). Go figure that the encouragement from legislators to take a vaccine is most likely not one born of benevolence.
It is also worth noting that all of these signatures were garnered from Republican legislators. The Tennessee Legislative Campaign Committee is a PAC that has garnered over $100,000 in contributions directly from Pfizer. This PAC is currently managed by Scott Golden, the state chairman of the TN Republican Party.
Are these contributions tied directly to this letter? I don’t know. But it is certainly worth revealing that there is always money flowing behind the scenes in everything we see coming out of our General Assembly. And we would be fools to look the other way and pretend that money plays no role in these decisions being made that continue to infringe upon the freedoms of we the people here in Tennessee and erode trust in those who lead.
