In this monologue Dennis Prager highlights a recent series of attacks in Nigeria’s Plateau State that left at least 140 Christians dead, describing the events as a "Christmas Massacre" where gunmen burned villages and killed civilians over two days. He cites reports from Amnesty International, the Associated Press and Breitbart, attributing the violence to the long‑standing farmer‑herder conflict and blaming Fulani herders or presumed jihadist groups. Prager then criticises mainstream media and global leaders for overlooking these killings, questioning why the Pope or other religious figures have not spoken out, and contrasts the lack of coverage with other crises. He frames the violence as a sectarian clash between Christians and Muslims, emphasizing that the victims are Christians and that the world’s silence is tied to media bias.

Here is a headline that nobody will— few people will know about, fewer will care about. Christmas Massacre: Nigerian Gunmen Kill at Least 140 in Christian-Dominated Regions. At least 140 people were killed by gunmen who attacked remote villages over 2 days. In north-central Nigeria's Plateau State, survivors and officials said Tuesday, in the latest such mass killing this year blamed on the West African nation's former farmer-herder crisis. The assailants targeted 17 communities during the attacks on Saturday and Sunday, during which most houses in the area were burned down. As I am talking to you, the Mangu local government alone, we buried 15 people. We are counting no less than 100 corpses. Amnesty International Nigeria's office told the Associated Press that it so far confirmed 140 deaths. Some of the locals said that it took more than 12 hours before security agencies responded. Breitbart News: African Christians endured another grim year in 2022, especially in Somalia and Nigeria, where Islamist gangs wiped out entire villages. Hmm. Gee, as my producer pointed out, Jews didn't do this. You think the Pope will speak? Has the Pope spoken out on this? I raised this issue. He's called Israel terrorist, but I'm not sure. I don't know if he speaks out about this. Tens of thousands Christians murdered in Africa by Muslims. No group took responsibility for the attacks, but this, uh, came— but the blame fell on herders from the Fulani tribe who have been accused of carrying out such mass killings across the northwest and central regions where the decades-long conflict over access to land and water has further worsened the sectarian division between Christians and Muslims in Africa's most populous nation. I always like that, the sectarian division. Are Christians murdering Muslims in Nigeria? It's the sectarian division, or is it the Islamic murderers? That's the question, is that— yeah. Presumed jihadists stormed the Catholic church in southwest Nigeria Sunday and opened fires on worshipers, killing at least 50. That's another— that's another story, just for the record. But, uh, it doesn't matter because Jews didn't do it, and so it is ignored by the media and the world.
