Islamic Violence Erupts in Nigeria over Pool Game

WestAfrica Religious Clashes in Nigeria Kill 4

VoA News: Police in Nigeria's Bauchi state say an outburst of religious violence has killed at least four people.

A local police commissioner, Mohammed Indabawa, says an argument over a game of billiards in the town of Tafawa Balewa sparked clashes between Christian and Muslim youths.

The fighting led to the burning of several mosques and churches. Officials say the violence began late Wednesday and continued into Thursday before police restored calm.

Bauchi state is in Nigeria's so-called middle belt, where the mostly Muslim north meets the mainly Christian south.

Nigeria's 140 million people are divided roughly evenly between Christians in the south and Muslims in the north. Periodic clashes between the two sides, mostly in and around the city of Jos, have killed thousands of people in recent years.

      In this article, Ace of Spades demonstrates how the writing style of "journalists" and other writers is purposely used to influence the electorate. He explains this far better than I have been able to do, but this is the foundation of why I could no longer be silent.
