"Christians, everyone knows what they have done to us and Muslims ... we were attacked and we decided to defend ourselves and, because we were on the right path, Allah has made us stronger,"
Oh it just gets old hearing this you know.
The radical Islamists in the world are just hell bent on having a full blown religious war with the rest of the world.
(Reuters) - The leader of Nigerian Islamist sect Boko Haram said recent killings of Christians were justifiable revenge attacks and President Goodluck Jonathan had no power to stop the group's insurgency, in the first video of him posted online.
The 15 minute video of Abubakar Shekau posted on YouTube is similar in style to messages submitted by other Islamist groups like al Qaeda, a sign of the growing influence other jihadist movements are having on the sect.
Boko Haram, whose name translates from the northern Hausa language as "Western education is sinful", has been behind almost daily killings in its home base in the largely Muslim northeast, most recently targeting Christians.
"Christians, everyone knows what they have done to us and Muslims ... we were attacked and we decided to defend ourselves and, because we were on the right path, Allah has made us stronger," Shekau says in Hausa, sat in front of two Kalashnikov rifles and wearing a camouflage bullet proof jacket.
"Jonathan, (you) know full well that this thing is beyond your powers," he added, referring to the president.

Death Toll In Wave of Killings By Nigerian Islamists Tops 100
So the Peaceful Muslims in Nigeria showed those extremely violent Christians what Peaceful Islam is all about...
Tolerance, Murder, Peace, More murder...
Islam the Religion of Murdering psychopaths !
Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty
In Nigeria, more than 100 people are thought to have been killed in a wave of gun and bomb attacks claimed by radical Islamists.
A rescue agency official at the morgue in Damaturu, Nigeria, says he personally counted more than 150 bodies before relatives of victims began to take bodies away for burial.
An AFP correspondent there counted 97 corpses still in the mortuary today.
The attacks in northeastern Nigeria have been claimed by the Boko Haram sect, which rejects Western ideals and wants to establish Shari'a law across Nigeria.
The militants on November 4 bombed churches and police stations in a mainly Christian neighborhood of Damaturu. They also fought gun battles with police.

Thousand flee after riots
"I must emphasise that what is happening is not ethnic, religious or regional."
Houses of Goodluck Jonathon supporters Being burnt to the ground and churches being torched all while Muhammadu Buhari supporters run around terrorizing everyone.
No, it has nothing to do with the Ethnic problems Nigeria has been experiencing lately,
Just wait till it sinks in a little more, When the Muslims realize that they have a christian President.
BBC
Thousands of people have fled their homes in northern Nigeria after riots prompted by the election of incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan.
In some towns residents slept in police stations for safety. The Red Cross says there have been significant numbers of casualties.
Mr Jonathan appealed for an end to the violence and imposed a 24-hour curfew.
His main rival Gen Muhammadu Buhari, a northerner, told the BBC the violence was sad, unwarranted and criminal.
Some of the rioters have been alleging ballot-rigging, but the former military leader said he wanted to disassociated himself and his party from the clashes.

Thousands of Christians Displaced in Ethiopia After Muslim Extremists Torch Churches, Homes
Supposedly Someone Pooped on a Quran, Now Muslims have their panties in a bunch threatening to kill Christians.
Same old Bullshit From Muslims, don't you dare desecrate the Holy Quran!
Foxnews
Thousands of Christians have been forced to flee their homes in Western Ethiopia after Muslim extremists set fire to roughly 50 churches and dozens of Christian homes.
At least one Christian has been killed, many more have been injured and anywhere from 3,000 to 10,000 have been displaced in the attacks that began March 2 after a Christian in the community of Asendabo was accused of desecrating the Koran.
The violence escalated to the point that federal police forces sent to the area two weeks ago were initially overwhelmed by the mobs. Government spokesman Shimelis Kemal told Voice of America police reinforcements had since restored order and 130 suspects had been arrested and charged with instigating religious hatred and violence.

One dead as Muslims, Christians clash in Cairo
None of this will end well for any Christian in Egypt, it looked like for a minute that the Muslims and the Christians were going to stand up for each others rights!
But now with the Christian churches being burned and a skirmish here a skirmish there, all being led by the Majority of Muslims, Christians will either be fleeing Egypt Or dying in the Streets.
(Reuters) - One Christian youth was shot dead Tuesday during a protest between 1,300 Christians and Muslims who were throwing stones and Molotov cocktails at each other, a security source said.
The fighting erupted when a group of Christians blocked a main highway south of Cairo and clashed with Muslims who wanted to pass through, a security source said.
Christians were protesting for the second day over a church in Helwan on the outskirts of the capital that was set on fire Sunday after a row sparked by a relationship between a Christian man and a Muslim woman, witnesses and a security source said.
The army fired gunshots in the air to break up the riot but was unable to quell the fight straight away, witnesses said. An army statement said it "successfully handled riots Tuesday."
One 18-year old Christian was killed by a bullet that struck him in the back but it was unclear who had fired the shot or whether it had been aimed intentionally, the security source said. Some witnesses said they saw protesters carrying weapons.

Buildings burn, death toll mounts in central Nigeria
Never hear anything about Nigeria in the news, Christians and Muslims have been taking turns killing each other for months on end.
(Reuters) - Youths dragged people from their cars and murdered them at illegal roadblocks in central Nigeria over the weekend, while rioters burned fuel stations and homes in the latest clashes between Christian and Muslim gangs.
Youths from the mostly Christian Berom ethnic group set up the roadblocks on Saturday at Gada Biu, on the edge of the city of Jos, stopping vehicles and pulling out people they believed to be Muslims, witnesses said.
One witness, who asked not to be named, said he had counted 15 bodies, although the security forces could not confirm this.
The latest burst of violence in Plateau state, where an estimated 200 people have been killed in ethnic and religious clashes over the past month, was triggered when Muslim youths attended a burial ceremony near a Christian village on Friday.
Soldiers opened fire to try to quell fighting that ensued between rival mobs of students.
"The situation was aggravated when the soldiers attempted to repel them into the campus. In the process, many students sustained various degrees of injuries," Plateau State Information Commissioner Gregory Yenlong said.
Reports on Saturday that some of the students had died in hospital triggered rioting, with youths setting up the roadblocks and protesters burning two fuel stations, a college and vehicles in the Farin Gada area of Jos, police said.

Two killed in attacks on Christians in Iraq capital
2 Killed out of 10 Bombings.
Expect the next Bombings from Al Qaida to have a higher body count to bomb ratio.
(Reuters) - Two people were killed and at least 16 wounded in a series of bomb attacks on Thursday on the homes of minority Christians in the Iraqi capital, security sources said.

Troops patrol Nigerian city after deadly attacks
Another more eye opening look at how Muslims celebrate Christmas.
Some real decent Savages.
AFP
JOS, Nigeria — Nigerian soldiers patrolled the streets of the central city of Jos on Sunday after a series of Christmas Eve bomb blasts that killed dozens in attacks the army chief has labelled terrorism.
Authorities have sought to keep the violence from spreading in the region, which has been previously hit by sectarian clashes that have left hundreds dead this year and which officials say have been fueled by politics.
At least 32 people were killed and 74 wounded when seven explosions went off in two different areas of Jos on Friday evening, with many of the victims doing their Christmas shopping at the time. A church was also targeted, the state governor has said.
On the same night, suspected members of an Islamist sect that launched an uprising last year attacked three churches in northern Nigeria, leaving six people dead and one of the churches burnt.
There was no immediate indication the incidents in the vast country's north and central regions were linked.

The 12 Top Reasons To Burn A Qu'ran On 9/11
From ROA
A hat tip for Cammie in our Comments for this one !
A guy named Hal Lacino has a hub page titled "The twelve top reasons to Burn a Qu'ran on 9/11"
It seems a Church in Gainesville Florida "The Dove World Outreach Center" is posting some Billboards on their Property called "Islam Is of the Devil" and they are hosting a Burn the Qu'ran Day on the 9th anniversary of 9/11 .
Funny enough as it is .
But it seems that Hal , While he insists he was Born A Christian and is an Extremely devout man of God ! has endless links and ad's for everything Islam Right on this Particular Hub Page !
He rambles off 12 different ways that if you are opposed to Islam and the Burning of the Qu'ran , How ignorant you are !
#3
To demonstrate that you have no clue whatsoever about Islam other than what your hillbilly inbred white trash neighbors tell you from the trailer next door.
#5
To provoke attacks on innocent tourist Americans in Muslim nations through no fault of their own, but as retaliation for your utter idiocy.
These are just a couple of his Ignorant Rantings , He goes on to say later ...
You are the lowest form of life on God's Earth, and although you hide behind your claims of Godliness you are nothing more than the true spawn of Satan himself.
Sounds to me Like Hal is Waiting for a Halal Meat injection from his Muslim Brothers !
you can't have it Both ways Hal , You spout your Hatred for radical Christians , Fair enough , But at the same time you choose to take the Side of Islam "The Religion of Piece " the religion of intolerance to other religions , the Religion of Murederous rejects who can't get along with others so they kill them !
As much as you Believe that Muslims have the right to preach their beliefs so does everyone else , while Burning the Qu'ran you may see as an Ignorant act from a Bunch of Crackers as you say ! At least that act does not Kill 3000 innocent people in the Name of Allah !

Foreign medical workers among 10 killed in Afghanistan
Dirk Frans, denied they were missionaries.
"That is a lie. That is not true at all. IAM is a Christian organisation, we have always been that," he told the BBC.
Aren't Missionaries Christians also ?
The Issue I have is why if you are helping out people in Need , why is it Important to let it be Known you are a Christian ?
Your traveling around Afghanistan , which is basically controlled by the Taliban , The most religiously intolerant group of nitwits in the World , why would you even go there ? and carry Bibles with you In the First place !
These people did not deserve to Die , it is Obvious from the Taliban's past abuses that they do not tolerate Christians , and to tempt fate Knowing what they do is a little Disturbing !
Faith does not protect you from the Evil's of Man !
BBC
Eight foreigners and two Afghans have been found shot dead next to abandoned vehicles in the north-eastern Afghan province of Badakhshan, officials say.
The foreigners are believed to be six Americans, one Briton and a German, who worked for an international charity providing eye care and medical help.
The vehicles were found a day after contact was lost with the group.
Local police said robbery might have been the motive. However, the Taliban have said they were behind the attack.
Zabihullah Mujahid, a Taliban spokesman, said bibles translated into Dari had been found.
"Yesterday at around 0800 (0330 GMT), one of our patrols confronted a group of foreigners. They were Christian missionaries and we killed them all," he told the

Nigerian machete-wielding attackers kill 8 people
Although the clashes take place between Muslims and Christians, observers say the underlying causes are economic and political.
Oh No , Muslims don't attack Christians for any other reason .
I know when I don't have any money the first thing I do is run out with My Machette and start hacking up people at the local Mosque !
What A Joke !
BBC
At least eight people have been killed in an attack by machete-wielding assailants near the city of Jos in Nigeria.
The unidentified attackers descended on a village on the outskirts of Jos, burning about 10 houses, early on Saturday, officials said.
Some reports said the dead included the family of a Christian priest.
Clashes between rival communities - Hausa Muslims and Berom Christians - have left hundreds dead this year.
Witnesses said the men attacked the family of Rev Nuhu Dawat in the village of Mazah, 12km (7 miles) from the state capital of Jos, killing his wife, two children and a grandson.
The priest ran for his life, later telling Reuters news agency: "I leave everything to God to judge."
Plateau State Police Commissioner Gregory Anyating told Reuters the authorities were trying to find out "the root causes of the violence", but it had not spread to other villages.
Deadly riots in 2001, 2008 and 2010 left hundreds of people dead.

500 butchered in Nigeria killing fields
Below is a very Grizzly Account and description of the so called Muslim Rampage in Nigeria yesterday !
It is down right disgusting what Muslims will do in the Name of Islam , Lopping off an infants head while yelling Allahu Akbar ! God is Great .
The Jackass's that wielded machetes to decapitate children and women deserve nothing more than having their ass's beat to within an inch of their lives and then fed to the Pigs !
It is for reasons like this that you hear the call to Eradicate Islam from the face of the Earth !
Timesonline
On the dusty streets of three Christian villages in northern Nigeria, dozens of bodies lined the streets yesterday. Other victims of the weekend’s Muslim fury jammed a local morgue, the limbs of slaughtered children tangled in a grotesque mess.
One toddler appeared fixed in the protective but hopeless embrace of an older child, possibly his brother. Another had been scalped. Most had severed hands and feet.
Officials estimate that 500 people were massacred in night-time raids by rampaging Muslim gangs near the city of Jos, where the Christian-Muslim fault line cuts across Nigeria.
Local journalists and civil rights organisations who toured the area yesterday told The Times they had counted at least 200 victims shot and hacked to death in apparent revenge for sectarian violence in January that claimed about 300 lives from the two communities. Mark Lipdo, a co-ordinator for the Stefanos Foundation, a Christian aid group, confirmed at least 93 dead in one village. “But there are corpses charred beyond recognition,” he said.

Survivors claimed that Muslim inhabitants of the targeted villages of Zot, Dogo Nahawa and Rastat had received telephone calls two days before the attack telling them to leave the area.
Witnesses said gangs waited at main entry points to the villages while others went from house to house, setting the homes on fire.
Those who fled were killed at the exit points. Others were slaughtered after being caught in animal traps and nets as they ran in the dark.
Ben Kwashi, Anglican Archbishop of Jos, said he visited one of three villages engulfed by the violence. “I could see kids from age zero to teenagers, all butchered from the back, macheted in their necks, their heads. Deep cuts in the mouths of babies. The stench. People wailing and crying,” he said.
Nigeria’s Acting President Goodluck Jonathan, a southerner, ordered troops into the riot-affected area “to confront and defeat these roving bands of killers”, he said in a statement. Last night he sacked Sarki Mukhtar, the national security adviser, a powerful figure in the inner circle of the ailing President, Umaru Yar’Adua.
Villagers said army assistance came too late. Christian youths accused the military of complicity in the killings.
Survivors told The Times that entire families were killed, some to the chants of Allahu Akbar — God is Greatest. They said villagers awoke to shouting and gunfire at about 3am on Sunday.
“They then set homes on fire and attacked men, women and children. Many were decapitated,” said Theresa Malinowska, press officer for Christian Solidarity Worldwide. Staff counted the bodies of four babies and 28 children under 5 in one location alone.

On the dusty streets of three Christian villages in northern Nigeria, dozens of bodies lined the streets yesterday. Other victims of the weekend’s Muslim fury jammed a local morgue, the limbs of slaughtered children tangled in a grotesque mess.
One toddler appeared fixed in the protective but hopeless embrace of an older child, possibly his brother. Another had been scalped. Most had severed hands and feet.
Officials estimate that 500 people were massacred in night-time raids by rampaging Muslim gangs near the city of Jos, where the Christian-Muslim fault line cuts across Nigeria.
Local journalists and civil rights organisations who toured the area yesterday told The Times they had counted at least 200 victims shot and hacked to death in apparent revenge for sectarian violence in January that claimed about 300 lives from the two communities. Mark Lipdo, a co-ordinator for the Stefanos Foundation, a Christian aid group, confirmed at least 93 dead in one village. “But there are corpses charred beyond recognition,” he said.

Survivors claimed that Muslim inhabitants of the targeted villages of Zot, Dogo Nahawa and Rastat had received telephone calls two days before the attack telling them to leave the area.
Witnesses said gangs waited at main entry points to the villages while others went from house to house, setting the homes on fire.
Those who fled were killed at the exit points. Others were slaughtered after being caught in animal traps and nets as they ran in the dark.
Ben Kwashi, Anglican Archbishop of Jos, said he visited one of three villages engulfed by the violence. “I could see kids from age zero to teenagers, all butchered from the back, macheted in their necks, their heads. Deep cuts in the mouths of babies. The stench. People wailing and crying,” he said.
Nigeria’s Acting President Goodluck Jonathan, a southerner, ordered troops into the riot-affected area “to confront and defeat these roving bands of killers”, he said in a statement. Last night he sacked Sarki Mukhtar, the national security adviser, a powerful figure in the inner circle of the ailing President, Umaru Yar’Adua.
Villagers said army assistance came too late. Christian youths accused the military of complicity in the killings.
Survivors told The Times that entire families were killed, some to the chants of Allahu Akbar — God is Greatest. They said villagers awoke to shouting and gunfire at about 3am on Sunday.
“They then set homes on fire and attacked men, women and children. Many were decapitated,” said Theresa Malinowska, press officer for Christian Solidarity Worldwide. Staff counted the bodies of four babies and 28 children under 5 in one location alone.

Up to 300 feared dead in central Nigeria clashes
Hausa-Fulani herders from surrounding hills attacked at about 3 a.m. (10 p.m. EST), shooting into the air before cutting those who came out of their homes with machetes.
Some extreme antics from the religion of Peace !
Women and Children chopped up with Machetes , not a nice way to go , Ultimately what this shows is that Muslims are truly Savages no matter where you go ! this could have happened in any country where there is a large Muslim poppulation .
It does not take much to insight a group of Muslim radicals into a Killing frenzy , just the thought of a Christian in the vicinity of Muslim territory Pushes these animals over the Edge !
(Reuters) - Nigeria's acting president Sunday ordered the security forces to hunt down those behind clashes involving Muslim herders and Christian villagers in which more than 300 people may have been killed.
The latest unrest in Nigeria's central Plateau state comes at a difficult time, with acting leader Goodluck Jonathan trying to assert his authority while ailing President Umaru Yar'Adua remains too sick to govern the oil-producing nation.
Villagers in Dogo Nahawa, just south of the state capital Jos, said Hausa-Fulani herders from surrounding hills attacked at about 3 a.m. (10 p.m. EST), shooting into the air before cutting those who came out of their homes with machetes.
A Red Cross official said at least two other nearby communities were also targeted, in an area close to where sectarian clashes killed hundreds of people in January, but that it was too early to give an overall death toll.
A Reuters witness counted more than 120 bodies -- most lying in Dogo Nahawa, others taken to mortuaries in Jos -- but Plateau State Commissioner for Information Gregory Yenlong said more than 300 people, including women and children, had died.
Jonathan put the security forces on red alert to try to prevent reprisal attacks spreading into neighboring states.
"Reports reaching us indicated marauding bands launched a flurry of attacks on certain communities in the state, causing considerable death and injury," Jonathan's office said.
"The Acting President ... has directed that the security services undertake strategic initiatives to confront and defeat these roving bands of killers," it said in a statement.
Some of the bodies seen by the Reuters witness -- including those of women and children -- were charred, others had machete wounds across their faces. Aid workers said some had been shot.
"The shooting was just meant to bring people from their houses and then when people came out they started cutting them with machetes," said Dogo Nahawa resident Peter Jang, women crying behind him.

Curfew in north Liberia after religious clashes
More ignorant clashes between two opposing religions , Christians and Muslims .
That is BOTH sides are Ignorant !
MONROVIA (Reuters) - Liberia's government has imposed a curfew in the northern county of Lofa after religious clashes killed four there on Friday.
The fighting near the Guinean border was the third outbreak of violence between Muslim and Christian communities in West Africa this year.
"The Liberia National Police, the Emergency Response Unit and United Nations Military Mission in Liberia have since been deployed in the affected areas, and a dusk to dawn curfew has been imposed," the government said in a statement.
The violence erupted in the town of Vionjama after the body of a child "with body parts extracted" was found near a mosque, the statement said.
The statement said the ensuing clashes had led to some deaths, but did not specify how many.
A doctor at the Talawayon hospital in Vionjama said four people had died of bullet wounds and that another 18 people were being treated for injuries.
Witnesses told Reuters on Friday that rioters had burned down the Catholic, Baptist and Episcopal churches in the area.
Earlier in February at least three people were killed in clashes between Christians and Muslims in southeastern Guinea. In January, more than 400 people died in religious violence in the Nigerian town of Jos.
Human rights observers say violence that is triggered by religious incidents in the first instance often becomes politicized, and can involve disputes over land or property.

Bodies pulled from wells after Nigeria clashes
What insanity .
Ethnic Issues turned these people into Nothing more than a Pack of Rabid Dogs!
JOS, Nigeria (Reuters) - Mosque and government officials have pulled more bodies from wells and sewage pits in a village near the Nigerian city of Jos, victims of what Human Rights Watch said appeared to have been a targeted massacre.
Four days of clashes between Christian and Muslim mobs armed with guns, knives and machetes killed hundreds of people in Jos and surrounding communities this week before Vice President Goodluck Jonathan deployed the military to contain the violence.
Muhammad Tanko Shittu, a senior mosque official organizing mass burials in Jos, told Reuters on Saturday he had just returned from Kuru Jantar, a village also known as Kuru Karama or Kuru Gada Biu, where more than 200 bodies had been found.
"So many bodies were dumped into wells and were littered around, others were being evacuated by the federal authorities," he said. Both Shittu and Red Cross officials said they were still counting bodies and could not yet give an overall toll.
Some estimates have put the death toll at more than 400, although official figures have been much lower.
U.S.-based Human Rights Watch said groups of armed men attacked the mostly Muslim population of Kuru Karama on January 19, burning some alive and killing others as they tried to flee. It urged Jonathan to order an investigation of "credible reports of a massacre of at least 150 Muslim residents."
"They were armed with cutlasses, guns, sticks and bags of stone. It was not the Christians from our community but those from outside who came," one 32-year-old resident of Kuru Karama, who was not named, told Human Rights Watch.
"The children were running helter-skelter. The men were trying to protect the women. People who ran into the bush were killed. Some were burned in the mosque and some went to the houses and were burned," he said.
He said he had seen the bodies of 20-30 children, some burned, some sliced with machetes, and that his wife was in hospital with an 11-month-old girl who had been cut with an axe.
"I came back on Wednesday evening escorted by the military. I saw dead bodies everywhere. The corpses were there, but now you can just see the blood on the ground. None of the houses are standing," he said.
