Boko Haram's 'deadliest massacre': 2,000 feared dead in Nigeria
The Guardian ^ | 1/10/2015 | Monica Mark

Hundreds of bodies – too many to count – remain strewn in the bush in Nigeria from an Islamic extremist attack that Amnesty International described as the “deadliest massacre” in the history of Boko Haram. . .

District head Baba Abba Hassan said most victims are children, women and elderly people who could not run fast enough when insurgents drove into Baga, firing rocket-propelled grenades and assault rifles on town residents.

An Amnesty International statement said there are reports the town was razed and as many as 2,000 people killed.

12 liberal Frenchman killed - big news. 2,000 Christian Nigerians killed - not big news.

1) The western media is trying to hard to put out the anti-Muslim fire in Europe to allow this to get traction.

2) These weren’t hip white leftists working in a chic city. Hard for westerners to “feel” anything. Like how only when a school with cute white kids gets attacked will people be “shocked”, while 20 black kids can die in one city due to gang-violence, and it doesn’t make the news on NPR.

It’s the one-two punch that will make this a footnote!

The dead are the fortunate ones. Those poor little girls kidnapped from their school and being raped every day by these animals wish they were dead too. And no country has men who will rescue them, including their own fathers. Horrible.

The last few days the Muslim apologists told us not to blame their religion for the acts of a few. Every freaking day around the world the followers of the religion of “peace” are killing and maiming people. Are we supposed to ignore that? Islam is the only PC religion to the leftists around the world, but it is radical Muslins who are doing the most harm in the world today.

In the context of history of Muslims, it really is not big news. They’ve been slaughtering people en masse (mostly other Muslims) for centuries.

In the end, western liberals don't like black people. Obama is tolerated because he advances their causes.

A bit like NOW supporting misogynist Clinton because he supports abortion.

In a hundred years, pockets of armed people will be huddled up wondering why they hell wasn't something done about these animals when they were vastly out numbered.

Someone will pipe up 'political correctness is unbeatable/undefeatable." Probably a relative of mine.

Since whitey was not involved, the massacre of over 2000 black women, children, and elderly people does not attract Obama’s attentions in the least.

If it had been one black criminal killed justifiably by a white cop, Obama would be all up in it.

Black Muslims have a pass in Obama’s world. He will let the massacres continue.

"... Islamic extremist attack that Amnesty International described as the “deadliest massacre” in the history of Boko Haram...."

..... Isn't this the same Amnesty International that accuses the U.S. of being one of the worst violators of human rights in the world? We live in a very strange world that considers putting panties on the heads of terrorist prisoners to be worse than the daily routine carnage that these fine upstanding citizens of the world perpetrate upon their own innocent citizenry.

Oh no, hopefully this didn’t include the guy who told me he is sending me $100,000 for the $5000 I just sent him. If so, I hope he sent my check first! :-(

Black lives don’t matter to the media unless it is whites killing them.

I’ve lost count of the number of people murdered by the subhuman savages. Is the world waking up? I don’t see any signs of it.
