In the first days of the war, they sent messages and intermediaries, asking us to negotiate. They were tweeting unconditional surrender.

Under the guidance and wisdom of the Supreme Leader, we chose resistance. We chose martyrdom.

By the twelfth day, the Americans sent a message saying the Zionist regime would stop from 4 AM, and asked us to stop as well.

In just ten days, unconditional surrender became an unconditional ceasefire. Why? Because of resistance. Because of our firm stance.

Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS Terrorist Scum in Northwest Nigeria, who have been targeting and viciously killing, primarily, innocent Christians, at levels not seen for many years, and even Centuries!

I have previously warned these Terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was.

The Department of War executed numerous perfect strikes, as only the United States is capable of doing. Under my leadership, our Country will not allow Radical Islamic Terrorism to prosper.

May God Bless our Military, and MERRY CHRISTMAS to all, including the dead Terrorists, of which there will be many more if their slaughter of Christians continues.

AFRICOM conducted a strike at the request of Nigerian authorities in Soboto State killing multiple ISIS terrorists.

Lethal strikes against ISIS demonstrate the strength of our military and our commitment to eliminating terrorist threats against Americans at home and abroad.

The President was clear last month: the killing of innocent Christians in Nigeria (and elsewhere) must end.

The Department of War is always ready, so ISIS found out tonight — on Christmas. More to come…

Grateful for Nigerian government support & cooperation.

Merry Christmas!

Nigerian authorities remain engaged in structured security cooperation with international partners, including the United States of America, in addressing the persistent threat of terrorism and violent extremism.

This has led to precision hits on terrorist targets in Nigeria by air strikes in the North West.

In line with established international practice and bilateral understandings, this cooperation includes the exchange of intelligence, strategic coordination, and other forms of support consistent with international law, mutual respect for sovereignty, and shared commitments to regional and global security.

Merry Christmas to all, including the many Sleazebags who loved Jeffrey Epstein, gave him bundles of money, went to his Island, attended his parties, and thought he was the greatest guy on earth, only to “drop him like a dog” when things got too HOT, falsely claimed they had nothing to do with him, didn’t know him, said he was a disgusting person, and then blame, of course, President Donald J. Trump, who was actually the only one who did drop Epstein, and long before it became fashionable to do so.

We've agreed on a meeting at the highest level — with President Trump in the near future.

A lot could be resolved before the new year.
