Persecution of the Day
Posted by Godefroi on April 7, 2008
From INN.
Arabs from the area of Shechem have vandalized a local Christian cemetery and damaged several tombstones, according to a Palestinian Authority newspaper. Muslim Arabs have steadily increased attacks on Christians over the past several years.
In Gaza, where Hamas took over the area in a terrorist war with the rival Fatah faction in June 2007, terrorists last week kidnapped Fuad Nabil Ayyad, a Christian activist whose relative Rami Ayyad was executed by Hamas terrorists last year.

Then…..it is time to repay the Muslims, in the same way. Am I advocating violence and killing? Yes. Are we in the West such shhep that we have to put up with this? Look what the US did in WWII. Firebombing civilians and atomic bombs ended the war in the East. Yet there is no guilt, so lets hit back at them!

Since this perniciousness (what I reported on) is occurring in the PA-controlled “West Bank”, I think advocating “firebombing” is inappropriate.
Also, while the animosity of Muslims toward Christians may be deep-seated, the violence is being committed by a relative few. Indiscriminate attacks perpetrated during a non-wartime period are the province of terrorists and criminals.
Finally, with all the anti-Christian sentiment in the U.S. and other western countries, getting a license from the government(s) to go to war in order to protect a Christian minority would be impossible.
Thanks for sharing your opinion tho.
