100% Syrian and northern Iraqi Christians too. Bring the Nigerian and Kenyan Christians to the US.

The Iraqi Christians in Baghdad were targeted until they were all but gone, and the northern Iraqis were basically finished off by ISIS in Mosul.

Syrian Christians are being massacred. What’s left of them should be extradited immediately.

Exactly. Wouldn't they assimilate better some other Christian nation in Africa?

If you open up a visa program, what is to stop a non-Christian Nigerian from claiming they are Christian to get a visa?


Nothing, except for actually taking the time to vet them.

Nigeria is a narrowly majority Christian country. There are about 115 million Nigerian Christians and by contrast there are about 4.5m white Afrikaners, and they are about 7% of the population.

115 million? You think about this carefully, Clark?

I asked Grok whether any Pope has said anything about this issue. You might find it informative.

" Yes, multiple popes—particularly Pope Francis and his successor, Pope Leo XIV—have publicly addressed the killings and persecution of Christians in Africa on numerous occasions, often condemning the violence, calling for international action, and praising the faith of those martyred. This includes specific references to attacks by groups like Boko Haram, ISIS affiliates (such as the Allied Democratic Forces in the Democratic Republic of Congo and ISWAP in Nigeria), and other extremists in countries including Nigeria, the DRC, South Sudan, Kenya, and Libya. Below, I'll outline key examples chronologically, drawing from documented statements and addresses."

Thanks for your interest in the Pope.

The most based Christians I have EVER MET in my 40+ years on this rock have been from North and Central Africa. Seriously. One of our local pastors here in this tiny town is a Nigerian immigrant and is probably the most devout man of GOD I have ever known. He's pure gold.

I'd rather give them guns and military training as Christian soldiers.

This would absolutely be a great move, the numbers wouldn't be huge and would fly right in the face of the medias bullshite though I'm sure they'd pretend it's not happening or find some way that it's against Muslims or something

Wonder what the keffiyeh wearing Leftists would say if they knew more Christians have been slaughtered in Nigeria than Palestinians in Gaza.

What would that reaction be?

how about no and instead.....dont give anyone asylum, deport all illegals, revoke the visa of anyone that is not in the tech, engineering or medical fields, revoke any interest free loans to foreigners, cut 50% of h1b Visa in all industries and have a 5 year moratorium on all immigration?


immigration is the biggest issue in this country affecting everything and yall want to give more people asylum? not to mention the median iq of nigeria is 77.....so you solution is bring in more people on the verge of being considered mentally retarded because they worship the same god as you?

not no but frick no.

The only real answer to this are the destruction of current maps and the creation of homogeneous countries. West Africans should have their own land, culture, and religion. Polyglot nations do mot work and never have.

I know several educated hardworking Nigerian Christians who are now outstanding American citizens.

I'd gladly trade them 1-for-1, if you catch my drift...

Honestly, this has largely been my experience with every actual African immigrant I've ever met.

Reading this made me feel a deep sense of gratitude. We live in a country where we can freely worship God.

No group should ever be persecuted for practicing their religion. We don’t have to share the same beliefs in order for us to respect each other.

Numerous countries all around the world are being affected by this horror & it’s dangerous to pretend we don’t notice.

Thank you to The President & his team for taking this seriously.
God bless every persecuted Christian.
Let’s remember to lift them up in prayer.
