Odd that there are no headlines from around the world about those barbaric
Christian, Jewish or Buddhist mobs hacking Muslim families to death!

Mob hacks Christian family to death

Muslim youths hacked a Christian family of eight to death in Nigeria's
volatile Plateau state, local officials said, continuing a week of religious
violence.

More than 40 people have been killed in the ethnically and religiously mixed
area since last Monday when Christian youths attacked some Muslims as they
gathered to celebrate the end of Ramadan in the city of Jos, capital of
Plateau state.

Plateau state spokesman Yiljap Abraham took journalists to the house in the
village of Tatu, where the bodies of the eight victims from the latest
attack were still lying on the floor.

On Sunday morning, in another village in Plateau called Riyom, police found
a bomb planted in a marketplace which had failed to go off because its
battery had run flat, Sergeant Willford Egwu told journalists.

Plateau state, straddling the "Middle Belt" between Nigeria's mostly Muslim
north and largely Christian south, though normally peaceful, has sometimes
been a flashpoint for tensions between the two faiths.

Plateau unrest is a new security issue for president Goodluck Jonathan, also
coping with near-daily attacks in the north-east by Islamist sect Boko
Haram, which authorities blame for an August 26 bombing of UN offices in
Abuja that killed 23 people.

On Saturday at least four people, including one soldier, were killed in
clashes between local youths and security forces in the town of Biu in the
north-east, a senior police officer said.

"The fracas broke out on Friday night when the youth ambushed one soldier
and killed him close to the Army Barracks in retaliation to the killing of a
woman and the arrest of four Islamic clerics," the source said.
