About this listen
In this episode of The More Freedom Foundation Podcast, hosts Robert Morris and Ruairi dive into one of the most misunderstood crises on the global stage — the violence in Nigeria, the claims of a “Christian genocide,” and the speculation that the United States might intervene militarily.
We explore how a mix of religious tension, regional insecurity, and government failures have fueled a humanitarian disaster — without fitting neatly into the narrative some Western commentators promote. While we don’t believe a coordinated genocide against Christians is taking place, the situation in Nigeria is undeniably dire, with thousands of civilians — of multiple faiths — suffering from extremist groups, criminal networks, and political corruption.
Robert and Ruairi break down:
Why some media voices think the U.S. could invade Nigeria
How Nigeria’s internal conflicts actually work on the ground
The role of religion versus economics and power
How government elites are enriching themselves — including the seizure of national oil wealth
Why a U.S. military intervention is highly unlikely, and what Washington truly wants
This episode takes a sober, critical look at a humanitarian crisis too often oversimplified for American culture-war politics — and asks what responsible concern for Nigeria should really look like.
