That statistic comes not from ISIS nor from Al Qaeda but from Nigeria and Boko Haram, another Islamic Terror Group.Boko Haram is also known as “The people for the Propagation of the Prophet’s Teaching and Jihad.” Christianity is currently the most persecuted religion on the face of the earth. In the 1900’s more Christians had been killed than in the previous 1900 hundred years, killed for their faith. This century is continuing that trend.

On the 18th of September there was testimony before the House Subcommittee on National Security, by Mr. Emmanuel Ogebe. Mr. Ogebe has worked on religious liberty issues for at least 15 years in Nigeria. He told the committee about Boko Haram and the slaughter they have propagated in Northern Nigeria. Last year he said they decapitated 150 or so Christians using chainsaws at a fake checkpoint at a place named Bene Sheikh in Borno State. They also murdered a dozen government workers who were also Muslim men.

In February they went to a boarding school and after inspecting the genitalia of the schoolboys, systematically slit the throats of those who met its crude puberty test. A total of 59 boys were killed in the Buni Yadi School massacre.  We also should not forget the 300 young schoolgirls they abducted in April from their school. They have killed more than 180 schoolteachers, and destroyed hundreds of schools. Of course part of the teaching is that girls are not to be taught to read and write.

Our State Department is somewhat complicit in this genocide against Christians, since they claim that these murderers want only a more inclusive government and they are fighting for that goal. The truth is they want a government that is exclusive, it is to be an Islamic government and it is to practice Sharia as the law of the land. This group issued an ultimatum in January 2012 ordering all Christians to leave northern Nigeria within 72 hours or face attacks. In January 2012 over 300 people died as they made good on their threat.

Boko Haram has declared that all Christians should be wiped from the face of the earth, they proclaim that it is a “Jihad war against Christians and Christianity.” It is also a war against Western education, democracy and constitution. When we went after the Taliban/Al Qaeda in Afghanistan there were Nigerian Islamist fighters with the Taliban back then. bin Laden’s personal secretary admitted to traveling to Nigeria when he testified in a New York courtroom.

I would suggest that you look at the transcript of this testimony, it can be found here. This group is extremely violent and wants complete destruction of Christians and Christianity, institution of Sharia in Nigeria. They will stop at nothing in their quest for complete domination, first in Northern Nigeria then spreading across Africa.
