The killing that went unnoticed!

“The Nigerian army was right to shoot these Shias. The only language the Shias (same as Shiites) understand is the language of the bullet. Well done to the Nigerian army and I hope you continue to shoot these Shia terrorists who are being sponsored by Iran. That’s why they are angry at their demise”, just to show how some of our human beings can be so ignorant on issues like killing a religious leader like Zakzaki, who dedicated his life, according to his website, to providing peace and harmony between all sects in Nigeria!

In fact the event that happened on December 12th 2015 in Nigeria was a horrific massacre of the believers of one religion and when I heard all the reports on that, I figured out that their version of events just does not stack up!

I mean just read what Human Rights Watch’s Africa chief Daniel Bekele said about that:

“It is almost impossible to see how a roadblock by angry young men could justify the killings of hundreds of people. At best it was a brutal overreaction and at worst it was a planned attack on the minority Shia group,”.

Truth! These trained killers showed so much violence to Shiites that they even buried their dead bodies in an effort to hide the big picture of the massacre that took place there. This act of terror is not so surprising after the election of their president Buhari who promised the US government to provide more aggressive measures to “stabilize the system” which is something I cannot simply believe!

Because as I am aware, the military should try to put down the Boko Haram terrorists, which is Nigeria’s number of threat. So why is the army serving Boko Haram’s agenda and bringing death upon all “unfit” citizens!?

So far and with the latest barbarism in Saudi Arabia, there is no doubt that such events cannot happen without a green light given by the “allies” of Nigeria. To understand this, let’s not forget the effect “moderate” allies have on spreading violent acts and extremity in the world.

I hope such organized crimes finally end so that the plight upon minorities would end too.
