Sudan: Muslim mob raids Christian school, murders church elder

Apr 8, 2017 1:41 pm By Robert Spencer

“Police were present during the attack on the school but failed to intervene.”

Because they share the religion and world view of the attackers.

“Mob Kills Christian Elder at Evangelical School of Sudan in Omdurman,” Morning Star News, April 5, 2017:

JUBA, South Sudan (Morning Star News) – A church elder on Monday (April 3) died from injuries sustained in a raid on an embattled Christian school by supporters of a Muslim business interest in Omdurman, Sudan, sources said.

Younan Abdullah, an elder with Bahri Evangelical Church, died in a hospital after being stabbed while he and others were defending women at the Evangelical School of Sudan, Sudan Presbyterian Evangelical Church (SPEC) sources told Morning Star News.

Christians had staged a protest against the attempted seizure of the school by a Muslim businessman, they said. Police from the Omdurman Central Division along with a group supported by Sudan’s Ministry of Guidance and Religious Endowment arrived at the school first and arrested all the men in an attempt to hand it over to the businessman, they said.

Advocacy group Middle East Concern (MEC) confirmed that after the arrests, about 20 men, including members of a committee the government has illegally imposed on the SPEC, arrived at the school with knives and other weapons and began to beat the women.

“Several men from the nearby Bahri Evangelical Church rushed to the church to try and protect the women,” MEC leaders said in a statement. “The armed men attacked them, and two church members were stabbed.”

Elder Abdullah later died of his injuries, and a second church member, Ayoub Kumama, was treated at a nearby hospital and has been released, according to MEC.

Abdullah is survived by his wife and two young children.

Since 2013, the illegally imposed committee has been selling church properties to businessmen aligned with the government, the advocacy group stated.

Police were present during the attack on the school but failed to intervene, according to MEC.

“They also failed to help Younan after he was stabbed,” MEC leaders said in the statement. “Following Younan’s death, the police arrested Mr. Shamshoun Hamoud, a member of the illegal committee who was identified by eyewitnesses as the person who stabbed Younan. None of the other attackers have been arrested.”…

    Where is a Kitchener when you need one?

      There are no Kitcheners or Churchills today, or even in view. It will take the explosion of war to bring people to their senses, years yet.

    Dhimmis are not supposed to protect themselves.

      True, Mortimer. Trying to protect yourself breaks the dhimma contract of protection…the original catch-22.

    This is how all countries will be if we cannot stop the Islamization of the West.

    Police did not protect anyone from the Muslim mob.

      You see this all the time in places like Pakistan and Egypt.

    The violent and vicious jihad.minded Muslims in their murderous persecution of Christians aren’t really going to get away with their destruction of Christians. As the apostle Paul had written each individual Christian is actually, in the View of God, a temple of God. For to Christians, it is written in the Bible “Don’t you know that that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst? If anyone destroys God’s Temple, God will destroy that person; for God’s temple is sacred, and you together are that temple.” First Corinthians 3:16,17. [N.I.V.] As in “A man reaps what he sows.” Galatians 6:7.

    Massacre of Sudanese Christians and pagans have been murdered in the millions by Muslims in Sudan at least as early as the early 1990’s. I never heard a word from a pulpit, over radio, over television about it. Will we make up for lost time?

    They may seem to be getting away with the continual slaughter. But not all that is happening is seen by human eyes. The prayers of Christians will soon be answered and Christ will be ruling as King over all the earth, and evil such as this will not even come into the memory of those living.

    The Bible book of Psalms gives numerous examples to give strength and courage to those enduring these horrific atrocities committed by satan’s crowd.
    esp Ps 82 and 83

    Sudan: Muslim mob raids Christian school, murders church elder

    ………………………

    This should surprise no one. This poor man. And he was trying to protect the Christian women.

    And look at the context for this–that Muslims are trying to seize the Christians’ property.

    God, I hate Isam.

      But–but–but GI, Muslims have the right to help themselves to any property belonging to Christians. Well, as for trying to stop a Muslim from getting his hands on a Christian woman !!!! What an unspeakable insult to Islam. Don’t these vile Christians know that Allah has given Muslims the right to help themselves to anything the kaffirs possess.

      • gravenimage says

        Apr 9, 2017 at 10:37 pm

        Yes–this is how Muslims think, Charli.
