Christianophobia Or, Look Who Is Facing Extinction

There is a new study out, it's reported (k/t=JW).

From Civitas.

It claims:-


...that Christians suffer greater hostility across the world than any other religious group. And it claims politicians have been “blind” to the extent of violence faced by Christians in Africa, Asia and the Middle East.The most common threat to Christians abroad is militant Islam, it says, claiming that oppression in Muslim countries is often ignored because of a fear that criticism will be seen as “racism”.It warns that converts from Islam face being killed in Saudi Arabia, Mauritania and Iran and risk severe legal penalties in other countries across the Middle East.

Seems too many politicians did not read the group's book which back in 2006 asked

Is ideological Islam compatible with liberal democracy?

And the term for all this is



Three years ago, we read this (well, most of us regular people did)

when it comes to persecution, few groups have suffered as grievously as Christians in Muslim lands. Fewer still have suffered with such little attention paid. Now a new report from the non-profit ministry, Open Doors USA, shines a light on the scale of oppression.  In its annual World Watch List, Open Doors ranks eight Muslim countries among the 10 worst persecutors of Christians. The other two, North Korea (which tops the list) and Laos, are communist states. Of the 50 countries on the list, 35 are majority Muslim.

And remember, it is were not for Israel, there'd be no Christians in Bethelehm.

Well, no alive Christians.

P.S. (k/t=JS)

Couple of nasty stories here and also here (in Hebrew) about Christian priests in Nazareth under threat from the town's red-green alliance of Islamists and communists after encouraging Christian Arab youth to join the IDF and integrate into Israeli society.

Raise your hand if you think that either husband or wife Medad is lifting a finger to make dovrei-Ivrit Notzrim feel at home in the IDF.

>> why anonymous?

my real name is Alan. Do you ask to know my further identity so you can prepare an ad hominum attack? I will tell you that I personally believe that this "Jesus" never even lived.... are you calling me a liar who "secretly" is a Messianic Jew? Do you see Messianics hiding under your bed?



>>> I have not 1st hand info but I suspect that Messianic Jews

wait.... are you saying that you never talked to any of them before forming ideas about them? Is that a habit you learned from growing up in Exile, and never lost?


>> just cannot control themselves

Can you offer first-hand factual testimony of such non-self-control, or do you just want to publish hearsay lashon hora?



>>> to convert to another religion which is theologically polar to Judaism


ok.... if I was putting forth the doctrine that Menachem Schneerson is "King Moshiach", would you try to ban my presence in Israel, or regulate my right to convince people to join me in thinking it? Has Y.Medad ever lifted a finger to ban ==those== people from entering the country?

>>> and seek to influence Jews

Wait, your Rebbinate religion is so intrinsically correct, yet it's in mortal danger from those who offer different ideas? If you're terribly worried that people will drift off the derekh, maybe it's because you've done a piss-poor job of convincing them that the derekh is a better path to walk!!

Your not-acting like the Muslim murderers... is that your best-self-advertisement? That you're not quite as stupid as the donkeys? Is that the best foot you can put forward, that you're not slaughtering Christians? You think ==that's== going to dissuade people from believing that Jesus walked on water?

If you want to be an alpha male in the Hebrew Tribe, you have to act alpha, not like a filipinit on Sunday afternoon at Tel Aviv Central Bus Station.

What has Y.Medad done to get MORE Notzri Hebrews into the IDF? Nothing. Zero. Why would he, if mindset-wise, he never left Queens.

I don't even yet live there, yet I give cash aid to sabra dovrei-ivrit Notzri IDF-veterans to move to Shomron. Whereas, you're busy trying to Rebbinicize it. A very different effort. A gigantic distraction from the needed work.

You are part of an effort to make a certain clan of the ethnic-Hebrew tribe, uncomfortable living in its indigenous homeland. So you end up being an obstacle to the Hebraization of Yesha & Shomron.

That's not a capital offense, but it ==is== a misdemeanor against our tribe.

Ben-Yehuda did not spend a year in a Turkish prison so that you could hand the keys of civil power to the very Rebbinate who used false accusations to put him there. Such will not be permitted.

The new hareidi units in the Magav will indeed follow orders to swing their rifle-butts in just the correct trajectory to adjust your attitude. If you want to gamble your teeth-remaining-in-jaws that I'm wrong.... suit yourself. The dentist hasn't finished paying off his mortgage. He'll be happy to fix you up with a set of falsies.
