If you're not familiar with the endless persecution of non-Muslims in places like
Pakistan, and Egypt, and Iraq, either you've spent the past few decades living in a snow
fort in Antarctica, or you're a radical leftist screwball who's so busy admiring
your own virtue in the mirror that you just can't find the time to pay any attention
to people who are actually suffering.
Let's take a quick look at Islamic terror in the news over the past week.
Mali:
A branch of Al Qaeda in northwestern Africa claimed responsibility for an attack on a
United Nations base in Mali that killed 10 Chadian peacekeepers on Sunday, saying it
was in response to Chad's resumption of diplomatic relations with Israel.
In a statement, the United Nations mission in Mali said that a peacekeeping base had
come under attack in the northeastern village of Aguelhok.
The village is in one of the most troubled regions of the country, which has repeatedly
been in the cross hairs of a jihadist insurgency.
Al Qaeda jihadis attack UN peacekeepers because a country has diplomatic relations with Israel.
Welcome to Islam's moral compass, where the needle always points to terrorism.
Pakistan:
There are nearly 200 cases of Christians in Pakistan charged with blasphemy - the controversial
law made famous by Asia Bibi.
Father James Channon, director of the Peace Center in Lahore, which promotes inter-faith
relations, said research by the Catholic Church has revealed 187 live cases of Christians
charged with blasphemy which in Pakistan can carry sentences of life imprisonment or death.
Added to this figure is the case of Asia Bibi, whose death penalty conviction for blasphemy
was overturned last October by Pakistan's Supreme Court, a decision which created headlines
around the world.
Speaking in an interview with Aid to the Church in Need, Father Channon said: "Even now, after
her acquittal, she is anything but safe.
Radical Islamists are trying to find her so they can kill her.
That is why she is currently under state protection."
In Pakistan, if you criticize Sharia, you'll be charged with blasphemy and sentenced to death.
In the West, if you criticize Sharia, you'll be accused of racism and sentenced to ridicule.
Seems like Islam always finds a way to avoid criticism.
Nigeria:
A Christian denomination based mostly in the Northeast, the Church of the Brethren in Nigeria,
otherwise known in Hausa language as Ekklesiyar Yan'uwa A Nigeria (EYN), has appealed to
the federal government to rebuild its church branches razed by Boko Haram insurgents.
The EYN says Boko Haram has destroyed a total of 1,125 of its church buildings and other
structures over the years of insurgency.
These include its headquarters office complex, which has been rebuilt, a church auditorium
which is yet to be fully reconstructed, and an adjacent pastor's residential quarters
where reconstructions work is yet to start.
Never forget, if you smirk while someone beats a drum in your face, you're a despicable
monster who deserves violence.
But if you burn down more than a thousand churches, you're a misunderstood victim
whose ideology is beyond criticism.
The Philippines:
The southern Philippines city of Jolo is on lockdown after a deadly double bombing Sunday,
as the authorities try to ensure security and investigate the attack that killed at least 20.
The bombing—which was claimed by ISIS—has raised fears of an increase in separatist
violence in the country's restive Mindanao region, following a referendum last week in
which an overwhelming majority of voters backed self-rule.
Bombs exploded at the Jolo Catholic Cathedral during Sunday mass, officials said, killing
20 and injuring at least 81 people, including 14 soldiers and two police officers.
The first device went off inside the cathedral and the second targeted nearby soldiers who
rushed to help the victims of the first explosion, a military spokesman said.
So, if you don't like the way a referendum goes, you blow up a church.
More timeless wisdom from the religion of peace, tolerance, equality, and feminism.
The United States:
Three men from Lansing, Michigan, were arrested for allegedly supporting ISIS — with one
of them taken into custody as he prepared to fly to Somalia, authorities said Tuesday.
Muse Abdikadir Muse, 23, his brother Mohamud Abdikadir Muse, 20, and another relative,
26-year-old Mohamed Salat Haji, were all charged with conspiring to provide material support
to a terrorist organization, prosecutor said.
Agents arrested Muse Muse at Gerald R. Ford Airport in Grand Rapids on Monday, where he
was about to take a series of flights that would have eventually landed him in Mogadishu,
Somalia, according to a federal complaint.
Mohamud Muse and Haji were arrested hours later.
The three defendants had all "pledged allegiance to ISIS through videos they recorded themselves,"
according to a statement by the Department of Justice.
Think about this.
These young Muslims had their entire lives ahead of them.
They could have worked, and worshiped, and raised kids in the land of the free and the
home of the brave.
Instead, they were willing to risk everything to join ISIS.
Why?
Well, as long as we ignore everything that Muhammad said and did, jihad will remain a
perpetual mystery.
Muslims in Nigeria, and Mali, and Pakistan, and the Philippines, and the United States
conclude that they're supposed to terrorize unbelievers because they've all coincidentally
misunderstood their religion in exactly the same way.
Of course, I should point out that there's really no difference, practically speaking,
between, on the one hand, a religion that actually calls for the violent subjugation
of the entire world, and, on the other hand, a religion whose followers misunderstand it
so much that they go out and try to violently subjugate the entire world.
Either way, you, and your family, and your friends, and your civilization, are targeted
for terror.
If you're satisfied with everyone you know being targeted for terror, by all means, pay
no attention to the words of Allah and Muhammad.
