Some of the unrest in the mainly Muslim city of Kano in northern Nigeria was attributed to traditional Muslim-Christian tensions, he added.

Most of the slaughtered were Christians, with many more injured.

Ah, more peaceful muslims at work, this must be the nice religion that Oprah was promoting on her TV show.

Maybe Koffi can hide some additional tapes of murders with his Nobel Peace Prize
or in his diplomatic UN pouch.

This is a holy war. I hope people start getting smart enough on this side of the fence to realize it.

There will not be a single word of condemnation of this from the "peaceful Muslims" because in reality they aren't--peaceful.

While Annan is riding around in His new mercedes, collecting Peace prizes, the World is Butchering one another.

People are getting tired of being led by the self-serving.

Islam is a Peeaaceful religion. It motivates its followers to moral Puuurity.

The west is, truly, far superior to anything these Jokers can come up with.

This isn't anti-U.S. These are wackostani fanatics of a false religion, envious of truth and justice. I blame the moslem priesthood. This will be a long nasty war!

He has also ignored human slavery and the habouring of terrorists.

That his UN "people" kept tapes of murders from Israel is sick
because for each moment the UN haboured terrorists.

Oh yeah Race, its all over the news that Christians are burning down mosques and slaughtering muslims by the hundreds in the streets like dogs in America. /sarcasm

The introduction of Islamic sharia law in some northern states triggered Muslim-Christian fighting in cities in the region.

So here Christians are being forced against their will and against their religion to live under islamic law. What American who lives under freedom could say that this is right?

This was a planned attack against Christians, anybody should be able to see that. Across the world these Muslims will seek out and murder Christians, and the press will report it as Christian-Muslim fighting. As if the Christians were going out against the poor little Muslims.

I'm sure there are many on FR who will be happy to see many more dead Christians in the weeks to come.
