Islamic State terrorists have claimed the killing of at least 130 Christians in three weeks of violence across Ituri Province, north-eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).

In the most recent and deadliest incident on Sunday, August 9, fighters from Islamic State Central Africa Province (ISCAP) killed 32 Christians and captured 24 in a coordinated assault on three neighboring villages in Mambasa Territory.

In what Islamic State (IS – also known as ISIS, ISIL, Daesh) propaganda described as “a bloody attack,” the terrorists also burned down more than 60 homes and shops.

This is why in a way it is a good thing that the CHINESE have decided to control the production of COBALT mining in the Congo. Can you imagine the Cluster F#ck would be happening IF US Companies were involved in that part of the world?

The Muslim’s were the people going into the jungles of Africa to gather up the tribes. Then herd them to the coast where they were SOLD as SLAVES to pirates who then brought them to the western hemisphere.

So, more of the same, IOW. I wonder what Pope Leo will have to say about this latest news of anti-Christian persecution. Probably the same thing he said about it last year... that Muslims and “other groups” have also been killed. Just great, Leo....way to denounce the slaughter of Christians by Muslims and to NOT blame the Muslims! Because we don’t dare call it what it IS now, do we.


“”“I think in Nigeria, in certain areas, there is certainly a danger for Christians, but for all people. Christians and Muslims have been killed.”””
