    Barbarians attack on Christmas.

    This nonsense from muslims really does confirm the fact that they are attacking Christianity and the west.
    Why is it we don't see these kinds of acts from Christians against innocent muslims on their holy festivals?
    Could it be the muslims are just barbarians?
    Pope condemns Christmas Day violence

    The Pope has denounced Christmas Day violence telling worshippers that 'once again the earth is stained by blood' as he made his Angelus address at the Vatican.

    By Aislinn Laing, Johannesburg 5:21PM GMT 26 Dec 2010

    At least 38 people were killed in Nigeria and six wounded in the Philippines over the festive period in attacks targeting churches and Christmas shoppers.

    Pope Benedict XVI, told pilgrims and tourists in St Peter's Square that he was saddened by the attacks on Christians and a suicide bomb attack in Peshawar, Pakistan which claimed 40 lives.

    "I want to express my heartfelt sorrow for the victims of these absurd acts of violence and repeat an appeal to abandon the path of hate and seek instead peaceful solutions to conflicts, " he said.

    "The earth is once again stained with blood as we have seen in other parts of the world."

    A week ago, he said Christians are now the world's most persecuted religious group and lamented that some had to risk their lives to practise their faith.





    In one of two Christmas Eve attacks on churches in northern Nigeria, dozens of armed men dragged a pastor of out his home in the city of Maiduguri and shot him dead. Two male choir members rehearsing for a late-night carol service were also killed, along with two people passing the Victory Baptist Church, which was then set alight.
    Danjuma Akawu, the church's secretary, escaped by climbing over the fence.
    "I cannot understand these attacks," he said. "Why Christians? The police have failed to protect us."
    At the Church of Christ in Nigeria at the opposite end of Maiduguri, Rev Haskanda Jessu said three men attacked around an hour later, killing a 60-year-old security guard.
    The attacks have been blamed on the radical Muslim sect Boko Haram, which has its headquarters in Maiduguri.
    In Jos, central Nigeria, two bombs went off near a large market where people were doing last-minute Christmas shopping. A third hit a mainly Christian area of the city, while the fourth went off near the city's main mosque.
    Nigeria is almost evenly split between Muslims in the north and the predominantly Christian south. Religious violence has already left more than 500 people dead this year in Jos alone.
    On Christmas Day on the southern Philippine island of Jolo – a known hotbed of Islamic extremism – six people were wounded when a bomb went off in a church during mass.

    I am quite shocked that no one has jumped all over this article. On Press TV from Iran I have not seen them boasting on the act. I guess we'll just sit back and see what happens with this one.

    pope's gangsters have been and are responsible for lots of blood shed in the name of christianity and they protect those responsible.
    he gives out the same old message year after year at christmas
    talk about white man speak with fork tongue.
    how much longer can Man put up with the bullshit organised religios.
    and see them for what they actually are ,, Gangsters.
    We can see clearly what the musselman is doin also
    crimes against their own , christians and women.
    How will authority deal with the crimes agaist humanity
    these have nothing to do with a religious mind
    but seem to be more in line with evil devil worship
    the carnage over the last few days has been sickening
    It is Madness.

    When it comes full circle, be ready becuase next time it is going to get really ugly. My biggest fear is not being able to get back to the house. Once I get there it should be smooth sailing. If they make it out to the back forty it will be just like open season. The lord loves a hangin' thats why he gave us necks.

    The situation in Nigeria is less to do with religion, and more to do with good old fashioned ethnocentrism. It is, after all, a made-up country with Niger-Congo groups (such as the Yoruba and Igbo, in the SW and SE respectively); and Chadic and Nilo-Saharan groups (such as the the Hausa and Kanuri, in the N and and NE respectively)... as usual, the religion is just a cover for inter-ethnic economic/resource conflict; and the best solution is to split the country up along ethnic lines... same goes for almost all African countries.

    Yeah, there is a well project starting up off the Ivory Coast next month and we need a crew of lackeys to stand guard on the rig and shoot any locals who try to get on board... We had a rig over run there last year and many of the farang crew taken hostage...
    Give a man a match, and he'll be warm for a minute, but set him on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
