‘What horrible numbers – something has to be done’
By Joe Kovacs
Just four days after President Trump warned of U.S. military action in Nigeria with “guns-a-blazing” over the killing of Christians, the commander in chief on Wednesday issued a video statement amplifying his threat, as he stressed, “The killing of Christians is not going to happen.”
“Christianity is facing an existential threat in Nigeria. Thousands and thousands of Christians are being killed,” Trump said. “Radical Islamists are responsible for this mass slaughter. I am hereby making Nigeria a country of particular concern, that’s a legal definition.
“When the Christians or any such group is slaughtered like is happening in Nigeria – 3,100 vs. 4,476 worldwide, what horrible numbers – something has to be done.”
