Nigeria: Pastor and Wife Killed

On April 13, a pastor and his wife in Boto village, Bauchi state, Nigeria, were abducted and killed by suspected Islamic extremists, according to Compass Direct News.

Pastor Ishaku Kadah and his wife, Selina, were reportedly abducted from the headquarters of their church, which was also their home. Their burned bodies were discovered hours after their abduction. Extremists previously set fire to their church building in January, days after Christians displaced by violence in Plateau state had taken refuge at the church, according to Compass. “Police have reportedly arrested two suspects [in the murders] and have launched a manhunt for several other accomplices,” Compass said.

The brutal killings of Pastor Ishaku and his wife are the latest in a series of violent attacks against Christians in northern Nigeria. In January and March, Christians and Muslims rioted in several villages outside the city of Jos. Churches and homes were burned, and many Christians and Muslims were killed.

The Voice of the Martyrs assists persecuted believers in northern Nigeria by providing resources to help them rebuild their lives and by providing medical treatment to those injured in attacks.VOM encourages you to pray that God will comfort those who mourn Pastor Ishaku and his wife. Pray that their murderers will be brought to justice. Pray that Nigerian Christians will be committed to sharing the gospel and will strive for peace and reconciliation rather than seeking revenge.

Liberals would like to do some of that here.

“were abducted and killed by suspected Islamic extremists”

Suspected?

[TSgt]

They haven’t ruled out the Amish yet so they are only suspecting Islamic extremists at this time.

[SeekAndFind]

Suspected?

Yep, the mainstream press like to use the word when it applies to Islamists.

Here's another -- when our military or Israel's military kills terrorists, they don't use the term "terrorists" but -- Iraqis, Afghans, Palestinians.

See the pattern ?

“Here’s another — when our military or Israel’s military kills terrorists, they don’t use the term “terrorists” but — Iraqis, Afghans, Palestinians.”

Yeah, and they don’t call Israel suspected either...

[DeoVindiceSicSemperTyrannis]

Yeah, you never know...those Amish are awfully violent, I mean, terrorists can’t even compete...
