writes in the following linked story about the NY Times attempt to play down the anti-Christian aspect of the Nigerian Muslim militant group Boko Haram, killing of at least 39 people with their Christmas attack. Mr. Ibrahim points out the NYT use of the word “senseless” to describe the attacks. Such word use happens many times when the main line press wants to direct their message away from obvious conclusions, in this instance that the Muslim militant group Boko Haram main goals are anything but the eradication of Christians, Jews and/or any group, persons or people that hold to non-Muslim ways of life that is different in the way that they see it.
When President John Kennedy was shot it was classified as a “senseless” assassination by a lone gunman, as well as Martin Luther King Jr’s shooting and Robert Kennedy’s. In reality the older Kennedy brother was shot by a self-proclaimed Marxist who shot Kennedy to further the aims of communism, the younger Kennedy was shot by a Muslim in one of the first shots fired in the name of Jihad, and King was shot by a racist who didn’t want to see the Democratic Party’s century long held views of separation of race and the party’s straggled hold on African Americans to change.
Each of these incidents had thought out agenda’s and cannot be truly termed as senseless, even if those of us that believe in freedom are appalled by the same actions and see them as evil. Our ever growing political-correct culture does not want to accept the idea that all of mankind does not or even would choose not to hold to basic ideas of decency or shared views which the “enlighten” Westerner holds dear. In reality that decency we expect others to have was originally shaped by a Judeo-Christian belief system which the West has come to dismiss as superstition and myth.
So why does the main stream media want to view the killings in Nigeria as senseless? Either they are so ignorant to understand that there is an evil out there that sees Christianity and the West as a threat to their evil intentions and that threat must be destroyed. Either that or the main stream media is in league, by design or subconsciously with that evil, and by media’s continuous attacks on Christianity and those that practice it, it could honestly be said this idea may no longer be a random conspiracy theory…
