U.S. Military Strikes in Nigeria Expose Bankruptcy of Secular “Solutions” to Persecution
The Catholic News Agency portal (December 25, 2025) reports on U.S. airstrikes against ISIS in Nigeria conducted with Nigerian government approval, quoting President Donald Trump’s declaration that “radical Islamic terrorism” targeting Christians necessitated military action. Congressman Riley Moore applauds the strikes as a “first step” to ending persecution. The article frames this as a defense of Christians while omitting the only solution demanded by Catholic doctrine: the public reign of Christ the King over nations.
