“One source has said that a mass execution is being planned for Friday, February 27, in the mosque of Bab Alfaraj, a Sunni village in the area..” Will the Islamophobia never end? “ISIS kills 15 Christian hostages in Syria, beheads woman,” ANSAmed, February 26, 2015 (thanks to Insubria):
(ANSAmed) – ROME – The Islamic State (ISIS) has killed 15 of the Christians it took hostage in northeastern Syria earlier this week.
The news was given by Archimandrite Emanuel Youkhana to the Catholic organization Aid to the Church in Need on Thursday. ”Many of them,” he said, ”were defending their villages and their families.” One woman was beheaded in the village Tel Hormidz and two men were shot to death. There is no information at the moment on how the other 12 were killed. Youkhana added that the number of those known to have been taken hostage had risen to about 350. In addition to the hundreds previously reported, some 80 inhabitants from the Tel Jazira village, 21 from Tel Gouran, 5 from Tel Feytha and 3 from Qabir Shamiya have been taken. Almost all are being held in the Sunni Muslim village Um Al-Masamier.
Another 51 families, ”with around five members each”, Youkhana said, have been taken hostage in Tel Shamiram, but it is not known where they are being held. ”They have probably been taken to the ISIS-controlled Mount Abdul Aziz region,” Youkhana said. One source has said that a mass execution is being planned for Friday, February 27, in the mosque of Bab Alfaraj, a Sunni village in the area. There has been no confirmation of the news.
No inhabitants are left in the 35 Assyrian Christian villages. Those who managed to escape did so towards Hasaka or Qamishli.
”There are 800 displaced families in Hasaka and 175 in Qamishli,” Youkhana said. (ANSAmed).

I don’t hear or see worldwide anger of “peaceful” Muslims against this brutality, genocide of Christians!!
Not even from Muslims in the Western countries. They get mad at Australian PM who exhorst Muslims in the West to do that but they have no moral backbone to call out their fellow Muslims. Oh, they just excuse themselves by saying ISIS is not Islamic/Muslims – case closed. Even as a human being they must feel something for the murder of these defenseless Christian villagers but no they won’t do that.
We can only conclude these Muslims throughout the world are with ISIS and are supporting them to continue their genocide of human beings. Today it is Christians tomorrow it will be other non-Muslims. Will the West ever wake up to Muslim atrocities and fight them??
Spot On says
Everyone is hypnotized by the Marxist MSM. If it were Christians or Jews killing Marxists or Muslims, it would be all over MSM 24/7 and western people would be upset with the pictures they see.
MKG says
Come on Christians, turn the other cheek is for dealing with school yard bullies who can’t really hurt you. When faced with extermination the righteous must discipline the ignorant and the wicked with the rod as a father disciplines his foolish young son. Exercise some restraint, show compassion for those who surrender, but thoroughly beat some manners into the rest. There are your enablers.
Spot On says
“Turning the other cheek” in the first century and in Roman times meant to “bring it on you S-B”.
MKG says
“Bring it on you S…B” is more like saying, “do your worst, for I shall do mine.”
“Turn the other cheek” is a form of passive resistance which is especially useful for those incapable of putting up a good offense. You can taunt me. You can beat me. You can rob me. You can even kill me. But, you have no effect on me, that is, you can’t hurt my soul. And, that really pisses off antagonists who wish to beat you down mind, body and spirit. The biblical advice of “turn the other cheek” is just as valid today as it was during the time of the Romans.
There is another use for “turn the other cheek”. By giving your antagonist plenty of opportunity to reconsider their actions and correct their petty evil behavior, you can assert justice on them from a position of righteousness.
Spot On says
Christians today spend a lot of time focusing on scripture that relates as pacifist. There are many passages that prove otherwise. In Roman times the Roman soldiers were allowed to slap a slave or citizen one time. If they slapped them a second time, the slave or citizen was allowed to beat the hell out of the soldier, if they could. Of course the soldier would have the advantage since he was armed but I am sure there were some who would take on the soldier and possibly start a riot against the soldier. The soldier would not know. When they turned the other cheek, the soldier could be looking at a fight if he hit them the second time.
The other passage Christians like to forget is Matthew 18:6, anyone can look this up. It was about tying a millstone around the perps neck and drowned in the sea. Jesus Christ said that himself. This does not sound like a pacifist to me.
Spot On says
MKG, Mortimer correctly explained to me that a large share of Christians are Culturally Marxist (CM) but not Marxist. This is particularly true of South American Christians and of course is why B.O. is intent on bringing them here along with Muslims. These CM Christians side with the Marxists politically. Even Pope Francis is a CM. This is why he agrees with B.O. on most issues of importance. Cultural Marxists march to the beat of the Marxist liberal MSM drum which is silent on this Christian genocide. You and I both know that if it were Marxists and Muslims being killed by Christians or Jews, the MSM would be all over it 24/7 and people would be having a hissy-fit over such a thing. The same can be said of liberal Jews who are also CM. It is the conservative Christians (and Jews) that Marxists like to hate and the MSM is controlled by Marxists. Of course, savage Muslims don’t know the difference and don’t care. They would kill all Jews and Christians while their Marxist friends sit in their cushy offices and watch it happen with glee. That is why the Marxist MSM hides this genocide from their largely CM Christian audience.
Right now it looks like we are watching the Marxist model of their new war against their born enemies (Conservative Christians and Jews). It seems to be working for now. Lets hope they don’t succeed.
MKG says
Mortimer posts a lot of good stuff, and I don’t disagree. What the WH tends to ignore is that latin Americans have their own agenda known as Vas De Aztlan or Reconquista. But what the heck? If you are going to “fundamentaly change America” that is, destroy America, you might as well go the whole hog.
Spot On says
Good point. This is another reason why the American CM’s and Marxist’s have their heads where the sun don’t shine.

This is a re-run of what happened during the expansion of islam in the 7th and 8th centuries (and those after it).

Satanic. Copying the example of their chief satanist Muhammad.

Mother Nature has delivered a long hard winter up in the New England states this year.
Surely those folks must be looking forward to the thawing of spring and the budding of the sugar maple trees with their promise of their sweet dripping sap turned into a delicious maple syrup treat.
But, Mother Nature has nothing to do with what drips in the endless Arab Winter or during the bitterness of each mythical Arab Spring.
Kepha says
The Cultural Marxism of which Spot On wrote is one reason why it won’t require Muslims to make an intellectual desert out of the West. CM has already done the job.
Transmaster says
We are importing 800 or so Islamic refugees each month from Somalia who only seem to be interested in living on the public dole. Why isn’t the Imam of the White House doing the same for the Christians that are being butchered by ISIS.
Charli Main says
” Why isn’t the Imam of the White House doing the same for the Christians that are being butchered by ISIS”.
Because Muslims are specifically instructed to kill Christians—not help them.
The Imam in the White House is being a good Muslim by allowing non Muslims to be butchered by his Jihadi brothers.

Justin writes: “GOD SHOULD INTERFERE[ sic] THE SITUATION NOW!”
Over the past dozen or so years here I have read any number of variations on “someone should do something,” but this is the first time I’ve ever read that God should intervene. Nice work. If God won’t intervene, then surely the rest of you are off the hook. No need to do a thing at all.
Not once in a dozen years has anyone offered to go to the battle itself to fight. I go. I do this kind of thing. But not one person has ever joined me. Still time. Let me know when you’re ready. Soon as I get some cash, I’m off again.

Justin gets a bit wacky sometimes such as to be giving instructions to God but so far he has thankfully not yet claimed to be God’s official teacher.
Jay Boo says
The Serpent of Satan recited, about his conjured-up Allah
“…there is no god but He”
But it was clearly seen
that Muhammad came only to deceive as revealed in verse 53:19
Behold, Islam’s messenger and his Muslim followers are the true mushrikeen.

A genocide of Christians is underway and the west looks the other way
Matthieu Baudin says
The top two tiers of the English speaking world, the US and the UK, are effectively ‘headless’ in their response to the Religious Cleansing currently underway through swathes of the Islamic World. Any ‘headway’ in the foreseeable future will come from the middle tiers, countries such as New Zealand who have just unilaterally announced new initiatives to tackle ISIS in Iraq. While Obama and Cameron hibernate through the winter others will step forward with their own initiatives because their constituents have consciences and want action.
Baucent says
Complementary words about New Zealand, of which I can speak with some knowledge. The country will send military advisers to train the Iraqi army, similar to what the US is doing already. But don’t expect too much from a country with 4 million people. Australia is more useful, but PM Abbot is on shakey ground and an internal party revolt may replace him with Malcolm Turnball, who would be very weak in facing up to Islamists.
Baucent says
This “religious cleansing” is probably in part aimed at freeing up villages for the muslim migrants they are now encouraging to come to the Caliphate (see their online propaganda magazine). They apparently see the way to entrench their control is to repopulate the region with Islamist immigrants.
Richie says
what is staggering to me is that even when Muslims persecute other groups , Muslims always paint them selves as victims.
G179 says
It is a genocide of massive proportions. Its exact dinensions will only be revealed in the future. But the free world is paying lip service and does nothing.
Richie says
They don’t want to offend those carrying out the genocide
littlenan says
Cameron and Milliband dare not say anything against these murdering thugs but that is what we expect. It is not the done thing to protest at the ill-treatment of Christians. They don’t matter. It is Muslims who should be protected. They collect more kudos by doing that. And the politicians wonder why the people are so angry.
Anybody would think that the Archbishop of Canterbury would mention these persecuted Christians, but no, he is obviously on the Left and with his Bishops appears to just want to rubbish the Conservatives in the Government.
That is one reason why the Church pews are emptying. The churchmen in charge seem every bit as greedy and left-wing as the political Left. They seem to just want the status of their position without having to support the Christian community in this or any land. That letter which the Bishops sent out recently was absolutely sickening. It was just about telling people who to vote for. If these churchmen want to spout politics then stand for election to the House of Commons.
michael johnson says
these pigs the filthy animals are killing peaceful Christians and the west just continues to stand by and watch this go on and do nothing about this if it was muslims there would be a planned rescue the whole world would say look at these poor muslims but I guess Christians don’t matter
Eric says
Someone said “will the real Islam please stand up” well here it is.
