Trump Strikes Anti-Christian Nigerian Terrorists On Christmas

President Donald Trump announced strikes on anti-Christian ISIS terrorists in Nigeria on Thursday.

“Tonight, at my direction as commander in chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS terrorist scum in northwest Nigeria, who have been targeting and viciously killing, primarily, innocent Christians at levels not seen for many years, and even centuries,” Trump said in his Truth Social announcement.

“I have previously warned these terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was,” Trump continued. “The Department of War executed numerous perfect strikes, as only the United States is capable of doing. Under my leadership, our country will not allow radical Islamic terrorism to prosper.”

U.S. Africa Command said that it “conducted a strike at the request of Nigerian authorities in Soboto State killing multiple ISIS terrorists,” adding that “Lethal strikes against ISIS demonstrate the strength of our military and our commitment to eliminating terrorist threats against Americans at home and abroad.”

The Christmas Day strike follows an early November threat from Trump and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, with Hegseth saying that “either the Nigerian government protects Christians, or we will kill the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities.”

“May God bless our military, and Merry Christmas to all, including the dead terrorists, of which there will be many more if their slaughter of Christians continues,” Trump concluded in his Christmas Day message.

Hegseth shared his gratitude Thursday to the Nigerian government for its “support & cooperation.”

Details are still emerging on the specifics of the strike.
