    Residents flee northeast Nigeria city after attack

    MAIDUGURI, Nigeria (AP) — Residents have begun to flee a northeast Nigerian city where a radical Muslim sect launched attacks that killed more than 100 people.

    Rev. Idi Garba said Tuesday that nearly all the Christians and non-natives of Yobe state had fled their homes in Damaturu, the state capital. Garba said streets remained deserted, without soldiers or police protection.

    More than 100 people died in bombings and gunfights Friday in Damaturu, an attack claimed by a radical Muslim sect known as Boko Haram.

    Boko Haram has been carrying out a string of targeted assassinations for more than a year by gunmen on motorcycles and carrying out bombings in northeast Nigeria. At least 360 people have been killed in those attacks this year alone, according to an Associated Press count.

      Saying that all muslims are terrorists is like saying all black people love grape drink or that all asians can't drive.

      The promise of satan's paradise on earth, the right (under Sharia law) to murder and rape and plunder non-Muslims with impunity? But, to reject and leave Islam is punishable by death, so to stay in Islam is to sell your soul. What kind of kingdom is that? Who can stand such a kingdom? Who can live with such hateful treasure?

      now tell me any other religion that is persecuted like Christianity....none because people hate the truth that they are sinners and need Christ rather than their own goodness.....other religions cater to people rather than God

      Even when the rain falls
      Even when the flood starts rising
      Even when the storm comes
      I am washed by the water
      Daddy was a preacher
      She was his wife
      Just tryin to make the world a better place
      You know, shine a light
      People started talking
      Trying to hear their own voice
      Those people tried to accuse my father
      Said he made the wrong choice
      Though it might be painful
      You know that time will always tell
      Those people have long since gone
      My father never failed
      Even if the earth crumbles under my feet
      Even if the ones I love turn and around and crucify me
      I won't ever let you down
      I won't fall
      I won't fall
      I won't fall as long as You're around me
