The Nigerian militant faction Boko Haram has launched a number of attacks across northeastern Nigeria today, following the expiration of their three day “ultimatum” for all Christians and ethnic tribes from the south to leave northern Nigeria.
The violence centered mostly around attacks on Christians in Mubi and Malduguri, and reports coming out of Nigeria say at least 36 people have been killed across the region, with more violence expected.
In Mubi the attack targeted a town hall meeting of the Christian Igbo people, one of the many groups ordered out. Gunmen with assault rifles burst in firing wildly into the crowd and killing at least 20.
The use of Kalashnikov assault rifles is a far cry from Boko Haram’s origins as a luddite faction that eschewed modern technology in favor of bows and arrows and machetes. After a 2009 massacre of the group’s members by the Nigerian military, they have adopted modern weapons and tactics.
Counting down the time before the resident islam apologists descend on the site chirping islam is peaceful and how the Boko Haram aren't following islam like it is supposed to be. Nevermind all the evidence to the contrary and from the "prophet" himself no less. This is how islam is supposed to be according to the koran. If anyone disagrees please let me know so I can post you your fill of "peaceful" suras and hadithas. The naive attempts to spin it this way or that are futile, as futile as throwing perfume on a rotting corpse to stop the stench.
Every man on this earth is here because a woman carried him in her womb,gave birth, nourished him with her milk and wiped his ass till he could do so himself. Theres lots more but I hope ya'll get the point. Now this "Religion of Peace" proclaims women to be half as intelligent as men. To attempt to build something noble, based on a misogynist foundation like that, is sheer imbecility.

What's your point? All religion has been used to support atrocities and injustice since time immemorial. The fact that you single out Islam just demonstrates your own ignorance and bias.
You forgot your Pom-poms.
Thanks for clarifying that you don't have a point…
You should be embarrassed you even bothered to come here and open your stupid mouth, "Y'all"
This ain't "Atlas Shrugged", maybe you're lost.
the only reason you pretend to give a crap about black people killing each other in Nigeria is so you can utter a few "tut tuts" about Islam and fit this into your narrative of a 'clash of civilizations' between Islam and every other major monotheistic religion. Feels good they let you hate on the Ay-rabs, right? They took away the black and jew hate "y'all" were so comfortable with.
There are only around 3 million Muslims in the U.S., and 60% of Muslims in the WORLD aren't Arabs, they're ASIANS…but funny how we never hear about them….and oddly I BET it's because we aren't killing / imprisoning / bombing / raping / occupying / destabilizing / droning their nations for their oil or to bring them "democracy" or some other warmongering "Christian Values" approved lie of the day.
Save it for the funny pages, Rube.
I am not white. and let me rephrase myself so that it is perfectly clear to the semi-literates-muslims arent the problem, islam is.
