Was there a time he said Muslims are not killed too by Muslim terrorists?
Below 👇 is different between good Muslim and bad Muslim.
He claimed there's a christian genocide in Nigeria meaning that bandits and terror groups are particularly targeting christians.

Nigeria government and the sultan of sokoto debunked his claims with facts and stats even tbough Trump and his minions never quoted any figure.

This is a u-turn. In fact, what he said is still very inaccurate and we remain on our stand:

1. The attacks in Nigeria are not targeted at any particular religion.
2. Christians are not greater casualties than Muslims. The ratio isn't even close.

So, if Muslims are also falling victim to banditry and insurgency, one is compelled to ask, where exactly did this dramatic tale of a “Christian genocide” originate from? Or is it one of those conspiracy theories manufactured somewhere between WhatsApp broadcasts and late-night imagination?

And now to the handle-mops, having exhausted local theatrics, they appear to be pinning their hopes on Trump, expecting him to swoop in and somehow replace Tinubu with pitobi under the banner of “Christian genocide.” One has to admire the creativity.

When that fantasy collapses, as it surely will, what’s the next move? A heartfelt appeal to Netanyahu? At this rate, the campaign strategy seems less like politics and more like an international prayer chain, desperately searching for a miracle sponsor.
shut up and focus on the topic.
We're treating an important issue and your only concern is 2027.

“I’d love to make it a one-time strike … But if they continue to kill Christians, it will be a many-time strike,” Trump was quoted as saying.

Re: Trump Makes U-Turn, Admits Muslims Are Also Being Killed In Nigeria by Blunt99: 6:56pm On Jan 09
Were is the U turn.

Has he ever deny that Muslims are being killed before?

As a matter of fact, the killings are done by Muslims on Muslims and mostly Christians but agenda has made the Muslim communities largely keep shut.

While the Christian have been out spoken about it.

The deranged criminal in the white house, he talks first before thinking and then reverses himself several times.
He didn't reverse.

He has never denied Muslims casualties before but not on the same scale as Christian who are mainly targeted for their faith, ethnicity and their lands.

Dont mind Tinubu narrative spinners.
There's nothing they cannot do, including sending suicide bombers and killers to attack Muslims so that it will look like it's not only Christians that are being killed.

Don't worry, Natayahu is here already. He'll crack the hard nut
Re: Trump Makes U-Turn, Admits Muslims Are Also Being Killed In Nigeria by Franking: 7:09pm On Jan 09
Who is killing Muslims? Christians?
Whoever is doing the killings should be decimated.

What exactly are you trying to say
Re: Trump Makes U-Turn, Admits Muslims Are Also Being Killed In Nigeria by BlackViper: 7:29pm On Jan 09
There is a long and well documented history of Muslims killing other Muslims, right from Day 1 of Islam.

The day Muhammad died, his companions left his body to rot while they met at a place called Saqifah Bani Sa‘idah to decide who would inherit the empire. Within twenty years:

The first caliph after Muhammad is believed to have been poisoned by other muslims

The second caliph, Umar ibn al‑Khattab, was killed by other Muslims.

The third caliph, Uthman ibn Affan, was killed by other Muslims.

The fourth caliph, Ali ibn Abi Talib, was killed by other Muslims.

Ali’s two sons, who were supposed to take over, were killed by other Muslims.

Muhammad's wife Aisha bint Abu Bakr and his cousin Ali fought each other in the Battle of the Camel. Then Ali fought Mu‘awiya at the Battle of Siffin.

In those early years, the number of Muslims killed by other Muslims ran into 250,000.

Later: the Umayyad Caliphate attacked Mecca and struck the Kaaba. The Abbasid Caliphate then massacred the Umayyads.

From the first “fitna” to the dynastic slaughter, the story of Islam contains internal bloodletting, not only conquest abroad, but strife within.

What we are seeing in Northern Nigeria today is simply the natural result of a political ideology that has been ongoing for 1400 years.

We can’t possibly call Muhammad’s companions, wife, and cousins “Islamists.” They were not radicals; they were the original Muslims. They memorized the Qur’an, fought beside Muhammad, and built the empire he left behind. And yet, they slaughtered one another.

What they did to each other in Medina, Basra, and Siffin is no different in spirit from what Muslims are doing today in Sudan, what they’re doing to Christians in Nigeria, and what they dream of doing to Jews in Israel.

Terrorist attack in Nigeria is targeted on Christians, Muslims affected are just collateral damage.


I still remember when Igbos were the target in north when it started,then most Northerners were happy.


My uncle that lived years in north ran leaving his business in hand of a Muslim sale's girl when they started going to houses and shops of Igbos because they are known Christians.


Maybe you were not born when this were happening.

Hmm see two mouth object. So if your master did not give a bit of acknowledgement, your brain could not think and see how Muslims were being killed everyday? Ooh your brain has been programmed to only follow what your master said. What a loss to mankind?

Regardless of who is carrying out the terrorist attacks, the attacks should stop.
When the terrorist attacks are recurrent, it suggests that a few or several government officials have a hand in the insurgency.

Abrakadabra journalism. People are being killed but mostly Christians. I don't know why we love to equate the truth in this country so as to balance the narratives. Christians are been killed simple. Since when moslems have also been targeted how many of these so called sympathizers have come out to condemn the attacks. They kept silent because it was largely the Christian population that is mostly hit. Bunch of pretenders
Re: Trump Makes U-Turn, Admits Muslims Are Also Being Killed In Nigeria by Mirasteel: 8:03pm On Jan 09
Muslims and Christians are both being killed by terrorist, not Christians alone, it's good he corrected himself. he should go and sin no more.

He still insists Nigerian Christians are killed at larger scale .
What a headline !

Not Christian terrorists but Muslim terrorists.

Re: Trump Makes U-Turn, Admits Muslims Are Also Being Killed In Nigeria by Eriokanmi: 9:31pm On Jan 09
Before trump made the statement, I had said a few Muslim get killed as well. But the mission is clear, a genocide against Christianity in Nigeria. What happened in adamawa recently in which the jihadists were forcing them to embrace Islam with threat to life was a further proof.
The Muslims being victims are like casualties of war. When the military fight, the civilians also suffer that's the best way to describe this.

Christians are the major target. I've not see n where Christians are slaughtering or throwing bombs or shooting Muslims in their communities, setting their homes ablaze, entering mosques and kidnaping them yet.
