=== Christmas Massacre in Nigeria (03:32) ===

[00:00:00]  Here is a headline that few people will know about and fewer will care about.
[00:00:11]  Christmas Massacre Nigerian gunmen kill at least 140 in Christian-dominated regions.
[00:00:18]  At least 140 people were killed by gunmen who attacked remote villages over two days.
[00:00:25]  In north-central Nigeria's Plateau State, survivors and officials said Tuesday in the latest such mass killing this year blamed on the West African nation's former farmer-herder crisis.
[00:00:42]  The assailants targeted 17 communities during the attacks on Saturday and Sunday, during which most houses in the area were burned down.
[00:00:56]  As I am talking to you, the Mangu local government alone, we buried 15 people.
[00:01:03]  We are counting no less than 100 corpses.
[00:01:09]  Amnesty International, Nigeria's office told the Associated Press that has so far confirmed 140 deaths.
[00:01:19]  Some of the locals said that it took more than 12 hours before security agencies responded.
[00:01:28]  Breitbart News.
[00:01:29]  African Christians endured another grim year in 2022, especially in Somalia and Nigeria, where Islamist gangs wiped out entire villages.
[00:01:40]  Hmm.
[00:01:43]  Gee, as my producer pointed out, Jews didn't do this.
[00:01:52]  I think the Pope will speak.
[00:01:54]  Has the Pope spoken out on this?
[00:01:55]  I raised this issue.
[00:01:57]  He's called Israel terrorist.
[00:02:00]  But I'm not sure.
[00:02:01]  I don't know if he speaks out about this.
[00:02:04]  Tens of thousands Christians murdered in Africa by Muslims.
[00:02:15]  No group took responsibility for the attacks.
[00:02:24]  But the blame fell on herders from the Fulani tribe who have been accused of carrying out such mass killings across the northwest and central regions, where the decades-long conflict over access to land and water has further worsened the sectarian division between Christians and Muslims in Africa's most populous nation.
[00:02:50]  I always like that, the sectarian division.
[00:02:53]  Are Christians murdering Muslims in Nigeria?
[00:02:57]  It's the sectarian division, or is it the Islamic murderers?
[00:03:04]  That's the question, is it not?
[00:03:06]  Presumed Jihabists stormed the Catholic Church in southwest Nigeria Sunday.
[00:03:18]  And opened fires on worshippers, killing at least 50. That's another story, just for the record.
[00:03:28]  But it doesn't matter, because Jews didn't do it.
