Another Bloody Massacre While the World Looks Away
While Americans argue about preferred pronouns and the Biden administration obsesses over climate change, 200 Christians were brutally slaughtered in Nigeria. The June 13th attack in Benue State marks yet another chapter in the ongoing religious cleansing campaign that mainstream media conveniently ignores. These weren’t random victims – they were specifically targeted for their Christian faith by Islamic Fulani militants who stormed into a shelter for already displaced families. The victims had already been forced from their homes by previous violence, only to face death in what should have been a safe haven. Where’s the global outrage? Where are the hashtags and celebrity statements? The deafening silence speaks volumes about which victims matter in today’s political landscape.
The barbarity of this attack cannot be overstated. Approximately 500 people were sleeping when militants stormed in, shouting “Allahu Akbar” while methodically slaughtering Christians. Many families were locked inside their homes and burned alive, according to Amnesty International Nigeria. The assailants specifically targeted St. Joseph’s Church initially but were temporarily repelled by local law enforcement before redirecting their bloodthirsty rampage to the market square. The initial death count of 100 was later revised to 200, making this the deadliest single attack in the region’s bloody history. Not that you’d know any of this from watching CNN or MSNBC.
Eyewitness Horror and the Pope’s Response
Father Ukuma Jonathan Angbianbee, who narrowly escaped with his life, provided a harrowing firsthand account of the massacre. “What I saw was truly gruesome. People were slaughtered. Corpses were scattered everywhere,” he recounted. The priest had no doubts about the perpetrators’ identity or motives. “There is no question about who carried out the attack. They were definitely Fulanis. They were shouting ‘Allahu Akbar,'” he confirmed. Yet somehow, Western politicians still can’t bring themselves to acknowledge the religious nature of these attacks or call out Islamic extremism by name.

Pope Leo XIV condemned the massacre, stating “Some 200 people were murdered, with extraordinary cruelty.” He called for security, peace, and justice while highlighting that the victims were already internal refugees. Meanwhile, the Nigerian government’s response has been predictably inadequate. Law enforcement arrived hours after the attack began, demonstrating either shocking incompetence or deliberate negligence. This is the same pattern we’ve seen repeatedly: targeted killings followed by government inaction, creating a culture of impunity for those hunting Christians.
A Systematic Campaign of Extermination
This isn’t an isolated incident. The Benue State massacre follows a series of attacks that have left hundreds dead and thousands displaced in recent months alone. During Lent and Holy Week, Fulani herdsmen killed over 170 Christians in Nigeria’s Middle Belt region. Church leaders have voiced their fears of a coordinated plan to eliminate Christians entirely from the area. The evidence supports their concerns – nearly 10,000 Nigerian Christians have been killed by Islamic extremists in just a two-year period from 2022 to 2024, according to Global Christian Relief. This is systematic religious cleansing happening in real-time.

Where are the international sanctions? Where’s the United Nations emergency session? While Western politicians trip over themselves to condemn Israel for defending itself against Hamas terrorists, they remain conspicuously silent about the ongoing genocide of Christians in Nigeria. The hypocrisy is as transparent as it is disgusting. If these 200 victims had been any other religious group, we’d see non-stop media coverage and immediate calls for intervention. But Christian victims don’t advance the narrative our globalist elites want to promote, so they’re conveniently ignored while the slaughter continues unabated.
