“Talk about extreme, militant Islamists and the atrocities that they have perpetrated globally might undercut the positive achievements that we Catholics have attained in our inter-religious dialogue with devout Muslims.” — Robert McManus, Roman Catholic Bishop of Worcester, Massachusetts, February 8, 2013
Yes, clearly that dialogue is working wonders.
“ISIS blows up Catholic church in Mosul,” Rudaw, December 26, 2014:
ERBIL, Kurdistan Region—Islamic State (ISIS) militants blew up a Catholic church in the al-Arabi district of Mosul on Friday, a Pastor told Rudaw.
“Members of the extremist organization (ISIS) cleared the Church of Virgin Mary of its contents in al-Arabi area, north of Mosul and blew it up after few hours,” said Pastor Behnam Raad.
Local sources said that the militants had sealed off the church and planted the bombs on Thursday.
The majority of Mosul’s Christian population fled the city when ISIS took over in June. The group has since demolished a number of Christian, Shiite and Yezidi shrines in and around Mosul among them the ancient shrine of Jonah (Nabi Yunus).

The Muslims want to remove all reminders that they are occupying Christian lands. Turn it into a Mosque or destroy all evidence that it was the property of the older prevailing religion of the land.
Standard Islam 101 for the last 1400 years. Coming soon to Australia, Canada, USA, Europe and all the other lands ” belonging to the Muslims”.

That’s because the MSM hate Christianity and Christians almost as much as the jihadists do. They just don’t have the guts to do something like this. (Yet.)

Thank You Jihad Watch for reporting the stories of Muslim Terrorists that our TV, Cable, Internet, Radio & Press or Print Media refuse to report because of their financial ties to International Corporations, International Retailers and Muslim Investors and stockholders! Religious Freedom is a Western Freedom we value and protect with our lives if necessary and I thank God that people still do! We allow any non-violent and non-treasonous Religion to operate and build centers. Just try to do so openly or even in secret in a Muslim country!. Stop all Muslim Terrorists by any means necessary including WAR!
For all ISIS, Hamas, Hezbollah, Al Qaeda, Taliban, Boko Haram, P.L.O., Black September and all other Muslim Terrorists do, These bullets, bombs, missiles and lasers are for you! Courtesy of Israel, the U.S.A., E.C., Australia and Canada!
Vote with your money and Boycott all Muslim Countries goods and services and International Corporation manufacturing there as they are the enemies of Western Democracies, Separation of Religion and Government, Western Freedoms, Equalities and Human Rights! They use their own and others children or civilians as Human Shields while fighting, They are killing innocent children, women and men all over the world for not being Muslims or their brand of Muslim, They are practicing Polygamy (up to 4 wives for men), They are practicing child marriages from age 9 to 18, They are practicing forced Female Genital Mutilation (no orgasms), They are treating women and non-Muslims as second-class citizens, They are practicing Honor Killings (for dating or marrying Non-Muslims), They are practicing killings for Apostasy (anyone leaving Islam or refusing to acknowledge they are Muslim by having a birth parent who is Muslim), They are practicing wife and child beatings, They are practicing flogging by whips or caning for unapproved clothing, selling/manufacturing or drinking alcohol, raising pigs/processing/selling or eating pork products, running or selling lotteries/ any gambling club or casino and all gamblers, listening to music/ DJing/ dancing/Acting, Performing music/plays/movies, Practicing executions for having sex without marriage or having homosexual sex, Practicing execution for heresy (holding a different interpretation of the Koran than the major Islamist sect in the area), Practicing executions for Proselytizing (missionary outreach by visits, talks, lectures, assemblies, books, pamphlets, DVDs, CDs, TV, Radio and Internet), Practicing vows to fight Israel, U.S., E.C., Asians, Latino Countries, Jews, Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, and all other Religions and Philosophies until they conquer us all!
Islam’s Koran and Sharia Laws teaches Muslims that they can Lie, Cheat, Steal, Rape and Murder non-Muslims or different sect Muslims to further Islam’s conquering the world!
WHERE TO BUY YOUR GAS: In The USA, THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW. READ ON – Every time you fill up the car, you can avoid putting more money into the coffers of Saudi Arabia and other Muslim Theocracies or Muslim Dictatorships! Just buy from gas companies that don’t import their oil from the Saudis and other Muslim Countries.
These companies import Middle Eastern oil: Boycott Them!
Shell………………………205,742,000 barrels
Chevron/Texaco………144,332,000 barrels
Exxon /Mobil……………130,082,000 barrels
Marathon/Speedway…117,740,000 barrels
Amoco……………………..62,231,000 barrels
Citgo Gas comes from South America, from a Venezuelan Dictator who hates Americans.
Do the math at $30/barrel, these imports amount to over $18 BILLION! (Oil was $100-$110 a barrel)
Here are some large companies that DO NOT import Middle Eastern oil: Support Them!
Sunoco…………….0 barrels
Conoco…………….0 barrels
Sinclair……………..0 barrels
BP/Phillips………..0 barrels
Hess………………..0 barrels
ARC0……………….0 barrels
Also: Pilot, Flying J, Love’s, RaceTrac, Valero.
All of this information is available from the Department of Energy and each is required to state where they get their oil and how much they are importing.
Jay Boo says
Thanks USOF
I copied and pasted that info for later reference
TH says
A good idea but this cannot be brought about by reading about jihad on Internet and making comments, but by agitating on the streets, in front of the offices of these companies, organizing a cadre of committed people willing to engage in such work and also civil disobedience to unjust laws, like the blasphemy laws in Britain. They have to be hit were it hurts, the pocketbook. Pauil Weston, then candidate for the European Parliament was arrested for reading in public a quote from Winston Churchill about Islam. What needs to be done is to get hundreds of people to do the same, to get themselves arrested and clog the coourts so that such ridiculous laws can be made ineffective. Tactics like those of Gandhi and Matin Luther King are needed, obviously all peaceful.

Yet another celebrity goes out of his way to mock Christianity
http://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/news/neil-degrasse-tyson-responds-to-critics-of-his-controversial-christmas-statements/ar-BBhgQVy
Neil claims not to believe in any god but he kisses up to Islam to praise Islam’s ‘Golden Age’ during Islamic conquest 800-1100 in a video clip.
Is he seeking grant money from Muslims?

Why didn’t He pick the Age when the Spanish were Kicking their Ar$$es and telling them not to come back ??

Why can’t atheists be consistent?
haha…I think that they are consistent, but since they are not clones of each other, they are inconsistent in their consistencies.
The most obnoxious atheists are activists who think it’s their job to bombard religion by throwing grenades into the enemies camp.
Most atheists just go about their business and don’t assault anyone with their atheism. Then, atheists are atheists for different reasons, the end result may be the same but the means of getting there may be different…

If Obama comments about this which is unlikely, he will no doubt repeat the nonsensical statement ” it had nothing to do with Islam”
Arjuna Krishna-Das says
The quotation from Bishop McAnus really looks like satire. Yes, that’s right. Government and church leaders really are speaking the same kind of drivel that satire writers might put in their mouths.
TH says
Jorge Mario Bergoglio, now Pope Francis, said something very similar when Pope Benedict gave his speech at Ratisbon University and quoted a Byzantine emperor to the effect that Mahommed had brough nothing new or useful to the world, and that religion cannot be in cahoots with violence. He stated that years of dialogue with muslims under Pope John Paul II had been lost due to what Pope Benedict had said. Both are clueless about Islam and the impossibility of real dialogue with them.
stipe says
The Bishop’s remarks can viewed as the blind leading the blind to the abyss.
Ilana Freedman says
The comments of Robert McManus, Roman Catholic Bishop of Worcester, Massachusetts only underscores the depths to which the Peoples Republic of Massachusetts’ PC campaign has led.
There is a direct correlation, conveniently overlooked by Massachusetts (and other) liberals, between the politically correct approach which they apply as they carry out their outreach to Muslims and the empowerment of radical Muslims in their anti-Christian, anti-Semitic, anti-West terrorists. The radical Muslims see only weakness (not charity) in these efforts, and recognise that the purveyors of PC outreach pose no barriers to their terrorist aspirations against those whom they perceive to be their enemies (i.e. all Christians, all Jews, all non-Muslim nations).
Massachusetts will, I fear, no doubt again witness – and feel – the pain inflicted by Muslim fanatics in whatever jihadi acts they devise against the population. The PC mentality that continues to prevent cogent policies against terrorism will inspire new attacks. They will not protect Massachusetts residents and all Americans against the scourge of terrorists who laugh at our idiocy and plot to destroy us.
