US Condemns Palm Sunday Massacre of Christians in Jos

On Palm Sunday in Jos, radical Islamic terrorists killed at least ten Christians. Eyewitnesses say the attackers opened fire before resorting to machete violence. This massacre is sickening and unacceptable, yet it mirrors a disturbing pattern of assaults on Christians during holy days. Only last Christmas did a US strike briefly halt the bloodshed. The US government has officially condemned the atrocity. Abuja must urgently ramp up security ahead of the Triduum and Easter. If it fails, the blood of these martyrs will be on its hands, with serious consequences for Nigeria’s relationship with the United States.
