Nigeria’s Christian Genocide: Explained.

Nigeria’s violence involves herders fighting farmers. Herders have the military advantage so more often slaughter farmers than the other way around.

There’s a variety of violence and not all of it fits the herder VS farmer paradigm, and some of it is religiously motivated or facilitated.

A majority of people killed are Muslim. However, farmers tend to be Christian, and herders tend to be Muslim. The conflict is not a simple Muslims slaughtering Christians fight, but a lot of people are dying and the Nigerian government is too weak to stop it.

Pentagon Prepares for Nigeria Deployment

The people killing Christians in Nigeria are Boko Haram. Boko Haram is a part of ISIS, and they are killing all sorts of people, not just Christians. They are rebels against the Nigeria government. Yet, Trump talks like the government is doing or aiding this. Hurting the government would weaken its ability to fight Boko Haram, potentially leading to more innocent deaths. Nigeria said they welcome help to fight Boko Haram.

Al Qaeda Is on the Brink of Taking Over a Country

“Al Qaeda militants are moving closer to seizing the capital of the West African nation of Mali, which, should the city fall, would become the first country in the world run by the U.S.-designated terrorist group.

The rapid advance of the jihadists in Africa comes after Islamist groups took power in both Afghanistan and Syria, but, if they take Bamako, it would be the first time militants with direct and current connections to al Qaeda achieve such a feat.”

Egypt’s Land Grab Threatens the World’s Oldest Christian Monastery

“In the sixth century, Christian monks built St. Catherine’s Monastery in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula. The monastery is believed to be located at the very place where God appeared to Moses via a burning bush. Valuable Christian relics are stored at St. Catherine’s, among them parts of the Codex Sinaiticus, which contains the oldest complete copy of the New Testament.

Since its inception, the monastery has never been destroyed, but recent efforts by the Egyptian government could effectively end St. Catherine’s independence and inhibit the religious freedom of its monks.

In May, a legal ruling by an Egyptian appeals court “affirmed government ownership of land beneath the centuries-old Saint Catherine’s Monastery in Sinai,” although the government stressed that it would not interfere with the monastery’s long-standing autonomy, reports Egyptian Streets. Despite these assurances, the monks of St. Catherine’s protested against the ruling and closed the site to all visitors on June 6.”
