People from the village of Dogo Nahawa, south of Jos, watch health official cover bodies killed during religious clashes on March 7. The latest sectarian massacre in Jos has brutally exposed the failure of the Nigerian authorities to end bloodshed and bring stability to a region which has long been a religious powderkeg. (AFP)
A group of Muslim raiders with machetes attacked another Christian village in Nigeria on Wednesday morning. The attackers killed 12 villagers and cut their tongues out.
The AP reported:
Attackers killed 12 people Wednesday morning in a small Christian village in central Nigeria, officials said, cutting out most of the victims’ tongues in the latest violence in a region where religious fighting already has killed hundreds this year.
The attack almost mirrored the tactics used by those who carried out similar massacres in Christian villages last week when more than 200 people were slaughtered.
Under the cover of darkness and a driving rain, raiders with machetes entered the village of Byie early Wednesday, setting fire to homes and firing gunshots into the air to drive frightened villagers into the night, witness Linus Vwi said.
“It was raining. They took that advantage,” Vwi said.
Vwi said he and about 20 neighbors rushed into the surrounding wilderness, cowering in bushes as they listened to screams.
He said the attackers spoke Fulani, a language used mostly by Muslim cattle herders in the region. Officials and witnesses blamed Fulani herders for the killings last week.
Fulani community leader Sale Bayari denied that Fulanis took part in those killings, though he said the community suffered a similar massacre recently.
Six people were wounded in the overnight raid and taken to a local hospital, said Mark Lipdo, leader of a regional Christian nonprofit group. He said attackers burned down 15 homes during the violence.
The dead included seven women, four children and one man, Lipdo said. Attackers removed the tongues of most of the victims, witnesses said.

I think the US can afford to give some of these Christian Men some good firepower. I mean we are passing a near $trillion dollar take over of the public sector — paid for by the people — we can afford a few semi-autos w/ shipping charges.

Is the Nigerian government really unable to protect Christians from hacks with machetes?

Peter Warner commented:
1) What is the purpose of cutting out the tongue of a victim?
2) Were the tongues cut out before the victims were killed?
3) What was done to the tongues after being cut out?
4) If a living person had his tongue cut out, wouldn’t he drown in his own blood?
5) Hasn’t this been done before?
6) Is this procedure included in the torture procedures taught in the Manchester (Al Queda) manual?
Appalled, Peter Warner.
AuntieMadder commented:
Peter Warner, I don’t know the answer but my assumption is that it’s symbolic. What it symbolizes is apparent: Shut up with your talk of Christ, you infidel dog. And I suppose that message is for the Christians still living; more coercion to submit to the Religion of Peace.

I hate to ask the obvious, but don’t the Christians over there have guns? If they tried to cut my tongue out, there would be a heap of dead islam lovers piled so high they’d have to divert the road around it.

Addition, since I’m just reading the news from Scandinavia:
Straight from Denmark. Nørrebro, part of Copenhagen. Jews in Nørrebro have to hide their religion because the area is heavily settled by mohammedans by now and if Jews value their health they hide their religion.
In Norway students get yellow stars on their backs by mohammedan students. Teachers simply watch and do nothing. One Jewish student was called a “Judenschwein” (Jewish pig) and the teacher he complained to basically said “tough luck.”
Malmö… Jews are fleeing the city and some students have been threatened to be slaughtered the halal way. Thanks to… the mohammedans.
But all of this has nothing to do with islam. Of course.
It’s 1930 all over again.
Stock up on ammon, Americans. We’re heading for war.
Andreas K. commented:
Ammo, of course.

And one more:
Solingen, Germany. A man with dark skin (an “Asian”, as the British media would say) gained access to a house and raped an 11 year old girl. The people in the area are shocked.
If this was my daughter, I would hunt the bastard and I would kill him. Period.

The religion of peace. Hah. Go to the website of International Christian Concern if you dare to see how this goes on almost daily all over the world where Islam predominates.

“see how this goes on almost daily all over the world where Islam predominates.”
The astute Melanie Philips recently described this as Jihad Pogrom, unfortunately the world occupied with frenzied attention only on Israel and Palestine none notice a Pogrom is happening and it is happening to Christians in Africa.
For as long as the West-both the secular and the religious- continue to ignore, remain silent, look away, keep the focus on Jews or Universal Health Care then the Jihad Pogrom against Christians will continue; and, the West will continue to remain in compliance with the extermination.

Peter Warner commented:
There is more information on this last attack here:
http://dynamic.csw.org.uk/article.asp?t=press&id=970&search=
According to that account, one woman and her son had their tongues cut out. Others were burned alive, killed by machete, or gunshots.
Islamism is an ideology that seeks to force the entire world into submission. It will take a determined effort by the forces of freedom to overcome and repel this attack. Perhaps the current revolt against the Obama administration and the Democrat Congress will result in amassing the focus and forces necessary to meet this threat. Providence, after all, might be at work.
As distressing as the corruption and usurpation of power that we are witnessing daily is, this may be G-d’s way in preparing for winning a greater battle. May G-d bless America and the forces of freedom everywhere.
Best regards, Peter Warner.
Jess commented:
Bbbbut I thought this was settled:
“UN Secretary-general Ban Ki-moon on Wednesday called on all parties of the religious riot to exercise maximum restraint and seek peaceful solutions”
CCTV, Jan 10, 2010
and
“U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton on Monday urged all the parties in Nigeria to show restraint in response to the killings of some 500 people in the recent sectarian violence”
Let me know how that worked out, OK?
Floradora commented:
Wonder what Tom Hanks would say???? Don’t those filthy, God-forsaken dirty Muslims like those of “another culture?”
These animals, these Muslims are the scourge of humanity. I’m appalled and shocked that the world as a whole puts up with them, and worse, our idiot libs actually seem to cater to them.
I just love how they seem to attack the young, the elderly or women. What cowards. I hope with all my heart, whether it’s right or wrong to feel this way, that God visits upon these pigs a crushing blow and that they get snuffed out.

archer52 commented:
Andrea-
You are right. We are headed towards something that isn’t going to work out well for either side. I predicted what we see happening a long time ago. It is the nature of man and of nations. There will be those who would want to rule us, and certain citizens who will stand and resist because they believe it is their right to protect their own freedom and their free will. What amazes me is the blindness to how close to the edge the left is taking this. Do they not study history at all? It’s not like they have to go all the way back to the Romans (which would be smart), all they have to do is go back to 1858.

It takes a lot of courage, intellect and humanity to hack a child to death.
Joanne commented:
Looney, they killed woman, children, and one man – who is doing the fighting. How are women and children suppose to fight off men with machetes?
These Christians need guns to protect themselves. Why do I send monies to help people in Africa to help them become self-sufficient, when they are just marked for the slaughter?
Joanne commented:
Looney, I know what you mean by the other side – the Christian people as a whole, but those Muslims attack the vunerable and when those they attack are vunerable, and that is why these people need to be armed….as a deterrent to those machete and gun wielding Muslims.
Jerry C commented:
Revelation 6:11 (King James Version)
11And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
Are you ready fellowservants and brethren? It’s coming to the U.S. as well.
Don Rodrigo commented:

Oh they will. Christianity is growing by leaps and bounds in Central Africa, and this is one of the main reasons for the recurring violence and massacres. The Muslims are not taking on some tiny minority. Muslims have been massacred in Nigeria by Christians as recently as last year.
Nigeria had broken out into civil war before (some 40 years ago). It could happen again.
Don Rodrigo commented:

re: bg #10
just a sample of what you will not hear about
via our (Isla) M(arxist) S(upport) M(achine)..
Muslim Slavery Today
[Muslims are told that Africans "annoy the Prophet" (Ishaq 243), have hearts "grosser than a donkey" (Surah 9:61) and that blacks should be left to die if injured, and should be denied intercession and entrance to heaven (Bukhari: Volume 4, Book 52, Number 137).
Muslims try and torture non-Muslims into becoming Muslims. Not every Muslim is evil and some i've heard have even come to the aid of non-Muslims who were being beaten in the streets but unfortunately they are the minority. Muslims continue to commit these types of atrocities against non-Muslims everyday in other countries such as Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan etc. Men, women and children have been raped & tortured by Muslims because in their countries they get away with it. Saudi Arabia regularly beheads people caught practicing other religions. The genocide has switched from southern Sudan to Darfur with oil revenues being used by the Islamic government to perpetuate genocide.]
Islam, A Problem In Australia
Radical Islam In Europe

thanks to our IslaMarxist President, who not only banned the “war on terror”, but free speech against Islam, not to mention placing them inside our government..
[Abdul-Malik also makes no bones about discussing how the election of President Obama is a step forward in the project of Islamization and the long term goal of Islamist domination which falls right in lock-step with that of the Muslim Brotherhood as revealed in their manifesto.]
both Marxists & Islamists (redundant i know) are way
ahead of US, which is why Obama acts with impunity..
we are losing because we don’t believe they
believe what they do, not because they do..
they have no time limits nor morals, what they do have is an over abundance of resolve.. something we seem to have lost somewhere along the hopey changey BS line..

When Jesus returns to end the Great Tribulation, He is going to trod out the grapes of wrath against Israel’s enemies. If you look at the ancient regional names in related biblical prophecies and map them, you will see that all these countries are now under Islamic dominion. No emotion of revenge that we might feel surging up can match the Lord’s vengeance to come. But now is the time to pray for muslims to convert to Christianity. That is actually happening, here a few, there a few; but you won’t hear about it in managed news reports. Pray that more will trade in their rags for the robes of Jesus’ righteousness. Prayer is the really big gun.

NIGERIAN MUSLIMS kill 12 more Christians, cut out their tongues
MUSLIM attackers killed 12 people in a small Christian village, cutting out most of the victims’ tongues in the latest violence in a region where religious fighting already has killed hundreds this year.
MUSLIM Raiders entered the village of Byie around 2 a.m., setting fire to homes and driving frightened residents into waiting attackers’ machete blades, said Mark Lipdo, leader of a regional Christian nonprofit group. Ten adults and two children were slain, he said.
It was unclear why attackers took the victims’ tongues. In Nigeria, Muslim killers sometimes take body parts of their victims for black magic or “juju” rituals, later using them as charms.
