Islamic State jihadists, reeling from heavy territorial losses in Syria, have slaughtered “scores of civilians,” including women and children, in the once predominantly Christian town of Qaryatayn.
The victims were either shot or beheaded. One town resident described the Islamic State jihadis as “monsters,” which they certainly are. The resident went on: “These are people who don’t know God, they don’t know anything. They killed children and women with knives, they beat women, broke their arms.”
Where are the voices and influence of top Christian leaders? Why aren’t they speaking out about the ongoing jihadi brutalities against Christians and other minorities because of their faith? Where are the Pope, the World Council of Churches, and Western leaders who preach tolerance, harmony and diversity? The foremost voices of influence are not advocating for these Christians. Nor are they opening their borders to the most brutalized victims of this jihadi intolerance. Why? Because it would be “Islamophobic” to cast light on these atrocities.
The inconvenient truth is that such violence (including mass rapes of infidel women and girls) are sanctioned in Islamic doctrine. Not all Muslims practice this, but such abuses are widespread globally, affecting millions, and Western leaders remain largely petrified and afraid to address this fact for fear of being called “racist,” “Islamophobic,” and into
Islamic State jihadists are now also quickly increasing their presence in the West, as they return enraged and driven by a desire vengeance for their losses in Syria and Iraq. They are flooding Britain in the tens of thousands; flocking to the US despite bans; and holding training sessions in the Caribbean, particularly Trinidad, where they have vowed to attack tourists during the Christmas season.
“ISIS Slaughters Scores of Civilians, Including Children, in Revenge Killing at Christian Town”, by Stoyan Zaimov, Christian Post, October 24, 2017:
The British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, however, which regularly reports on terror attacks and the civil war in the country, said that at least 128 people were executed by IS. Most of the bodies were apparently found dumped in farms and ditches.
International Christian Concern noted that Qaryatayn was once a predominantly Christian town, though most believers fled when IS first captured it back in 2015.
The town has been captured and retaken back and forth by Syrian and IS forces on a number of occasions, though Christians returning home in November 2016 were relieved to find that the famous relics of fourth century saint Mar Elian survived despite IS destroying his monastery.
“After the destruction of the monastery, we thought his relics were lost, but instead we were able to find them. This gave us great consolation,” Father Jacques Mourad, a priest who was previously captured by IS, said at the time.
He added that Christians are looking forward to “placing the bones of Mar Elian back in the places where they were kept, and to pray again around that relics.”
Abdullah AbdulKarim, a former resident of Qaryatayn, said that the latest slaughter was revenge killing specifically targeting people and their relatives who IS accused of collaborating with government forces.
“They came into town with a hit list,” the former resident said.
AbdulKarim added that the militants went door to door for three weeks hunting down individuals……

And these are the people we are letting back into our Country ! No, problem Islam is a PEACEFUL ideology .

Not to worry.
“And these are the people we are letting back into our Country ! ”
Not to worry.
What happens “over there,” or elsewhere cannot, does not, will not ever happen here.
Because, as one must always recall, here, in the U.S. of A., unlike in other places, here we have them [ sic] little “No terrorism here” signs up, like all over the place; so too, them “ Only noble, peaceful, great, and fun-loving Islam allowed here” signs.
Thus, as noted above, not to worry. We’re good.

Members of ISIS who return to their home countries must be arrested and prosecuted for genocide! Where is the International Criminal Court? Why aren’t their Prosecutors calling for the arrest of ISIS members returning home? Why are the home countries of ISIS members protecting these evil monsters?
Tom says
Exactly !! Where indeed are those who so ademantly spout their hypocracy of equality for all, yet when it comes to facing the barbarism being perpetrated on Christians by Islamists they fail to even acknowledge a problem, let alone a genocide.
The Pope is acting as a heretic and those who support him cower in the darkness he projects. I hope they collectively all rot in hell for their wilfull blindness of what is happening to their fellow Christians, while they themselves fawn over Islam.

There is a problem in the west…it is the mainstream media….they have been complicit with their political masters in creating and perpetuating these problems as the average ‘westerner’ unless they delve deeper will NEVER know the extent of the problem if they rely solely on their mainstream ‘news’-which is an oxymoron- and will most likely be ‘obliterated’ before they realize that they are under attack!!!
Sons of Liberty says
Exactly ! WOMEN and CHILDREN being BRUTALIZED and murdered ! OH, we can’t OFFEND THEM,…. there are 1.3 Billion Muslims in the WORLD ! Then that is A CURSE on the WORLD ! How many Christians , Jews and unbelievers HAVE TO DIE before the WORLD TAKES THIS SERIOUSLY ? It’s ONLY BEEN GOING ON for ALMOST 1400 YEARS .

SILENCE FROM ALL WESTERN CHRISTIANS & GOVERNMENTS ???? THIS DOES NOT BODE WELL FOR WESTERN SOCIETY AT ALL !
HOWEVER ONLY CONTINUAL EXPOSING OF THE APPEASEMENT & COWARDICE OF THE WESTERN LEADERS CAN HAVE ANY CHANCE OF COMING CLOSE TO DEALING WITH THINGS LIKE THIS !
THERE NEEDS TO BE A LARGE BACKLASH IN EUROPE SOON BUT IN LOOKING AT THE REACTIONS TO THINGS LIKE THE MUSLIM GROOMING RAPING IN THE UK I HAVE LOST CONFIDENCE IN THE WESTS ABILITY TO DEFEND ITSELF !
THE CHILD RAPING HAS AS i PREDICTED GONE UP AS THE MUSLIM CHILD RAPIST COWARDS HAVE CORRECTLY SEEN THE UK;S REFUSAL TO CHANGE THE LAWS & PROCEDURES !
THE SO CALLED ELITE PURISTS FIND THE PROCEDURES FAR MORE PRECIOUS THAT THE LIVES OF THEIR CHILDREN APPARENTLY !!
HORRIBLE BUT APPEARS TO BE TRUE ! GERMANY, HOLLAND, FRANCE , SWEDEN TO NAME A FEW – LIKEWISE !
ONLY HUNGARY , POLAND & SLOVAKIA & THE CHECKS SEEM TO VALUE THEIR CHILDREN !!

Yes, and meanwhile, the migrants to the West play innocent while they secretly approve of the destruction of the DIRTY KUFAAR.
Muslims conceal their hatred of the kufaar even while they live and work among them. All Muslims are required by Al Walaa wal Baraa to hate dirty kafirs ‘for the sake of Allah’ and never support them, praise them or encourage them in any way.

Walter Sieruk says
The fiendish and heinous jihadists of ISIS base their violent and murderous behavior on the instruction of violence and killing that is found in the Koran Sura 2:191. 4:89; 5:33. 9:5, 111,123. 47:4. For a more full understanding of the actual nature of the Koran a person need to look back in time before the coming of Muhammad and then the Koran. Back to the First Century AD which was the time of early Christian church. For the Early Christian Church had and now in modern times the Christian church still has the Gospel of Christ, First Corinthians 15:1-4. Much later, in time, came Muhammad and he gave much information, that many believe to be divine, some of which is said to have been obtained from an angle from heaven. This information was written down on different objects and things Those written words in different objects was then compiled together and then eventually went into the composition of what is now called the Koran, As some also call it the Qur’an. The Koran is actually, that is in reality, another gospel, apart and greatly different from the Gospel of the Christian Church. Such a thing was predicted in the Bible. For the Bible does warn about those who will come and offer to people another gospel other than the one shown above, First Corinthians 15:1-4. For it is warned about any other “gospel” in the Bible. For it is written in the Bible “Though we or an angle from heaven preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so I say now again, if any man preaches any other gospel unto you than ye have received, let him be accursed.” Galatians 1:8, 9. [K.J.V.] Therefore, the Koran is the result of the deception of a false prophet, Mathew 7:15., who may have come in contact with a fallen angle, a demon, So the imams and mullahs who preach it a truth to other are accused of and by God.
Walter Sieruk says
The cruel ,vicious and murderous jihadists thugs who compose the brutal and deadly jihad entity ISIS are actually putting in to the practice ,with all their ruthless actions, the violence and killing that is part of the teaching of the “holy book” of Islam ,the Koran. Which contain the doctrine of extreme violent force for the advancement of Islam. As seen in the Koran, for example, 2:191,4:89. 5:33. 9:5,111,123. 47:4. So in spite of the strong denials by many, ISIS is an actual Islamic organization. Likewise the malicious, bloodthirsty violence jihadists who make up ISIS are real Muslims. Nevertheless, there are some who might , understandably, wonder and then ask “Just how can those jihadists of ISIS ,being so very religious , also at the time also be so very malice-filled ,unfeeling and deadly ? “ The answer to that question is found in the Bible. For the Bible teaches that there are some people who are extremely heartless, cold, callous and dangerous because they have had “their conscience seared with a hot iron.” First Timothy 4:2. [ K.J.V.] In this case of the members of ISIS this “hot iron” is Islam.

What they all have in common? Just three words connect them all: Bunch of cowards!

Can you imagine if those were muslims being killed by Christians?
The western media would have gone to churches to ask pastors and Bishops why you are killing muslims
mortimer says
A superb article by Christine Douglass-Williams, validating the contention that the EMOTIONAL SUBTEXT of Islam is SADOMASOCHISM.
Hitler knew the war was lost but still he continued to fight, murder and exterminate, causing as much pain to others (and to Germans) as possible before he escaped from the shame and humiliation of his capture and trial.
The ISIS jihadists are motivated by a similar SADOMASOCHISM which is part of all TOTALITARIANISM.
I wonder about leftists says
Yes, where are those hypocritical leaders and churches and Pope of Christianity? They are only trying to keep themselves safe and the rest of the world can rot away as far as they are concerned.
I can never trust any politicians, muslims, Christians or people from any religion any more, it has become “A MAD,MAD WORLD, but sorry, it always was, but everything will come up to the surface now and will show who we really are. And it is not a pleasant picture. I think people will be perplex.
But we always let the governments, Pope, religions go their own way, with the money too, we almost never controlled them or criticised them, because we”thought” they would never do us harm. We know better now, but to late for sure, but if we would have insisted on controlling the books and their hidden agenda’s, they would have killed us. It’s mostly like that in every country, to bad.
Ricardo Torres says
why ? why ? why? do so many have to die before political leaders demand justice ? do we not send refugees back to their homeland ? do what with the vengeful militants ?
Lydia says
They are silent because it’s all part of the global agenda that they are puppets of, or pulling the strings of.
Most pastors and ‘Christian’ leaders now are nothing but a bunch of hirelings! They care nothing for the sheep! They care only for the goats and not the sheep! If they did warn of all they are supposed to warn, they would lose $ and they don’t want to risk that. That is why the Lord has true servants (yes, like me) who are not afraid to warn, not afraid to lose, or have nothing to lose, and we obey Him as our Lord, not our pocketbooks or some evil hierarchy!
But they have sold their souls for lives of comfort and luxury, for money and fame and power, and have sold the sheep to the wolf as the Judas betrayers always do. As the Bible warns: “Woe to them!!!”

“… Islamic State jihadists are now also quickly increasing their presence in the West, as they return enraged and driven by a desire vengeance for their losses in Syria and Iraq…”
They should all be arrested at the first opportunity and be tried in military courts as they are enemy combatants. Those shown to have murdered unarmed civilians ought to face the possibility of a non commuted capital sentence.

Remember when they did this in Myanmar? they butchered people like this, and how did Obama, the UN etc respond? with condemnation, Obama even warned the President to make sure Muslims were not persecuted.
Then the latest incident happens, and finally the Burmese fought back and kicked their sorry arses, and how did the UN etc respond? again with condemnation of the Burmese, not the Muslims who brought it on themselves. And our dumb ass Greens here wanted to bring all the Rohingyas to Australia. SMH
Doubt we will get so much as a whimper from the UN over this, yet if the Christian fought back and finally deleted these scum from Gods great Earth. we would have the UN, our media, in Australia as well, condemning Christians and saying why did you not turn the other cheek to these poor Muslimes

They did the same thing to the Hindus in Kashmir and Pakistan and Bangladesh…
Debi Brand says
” ‘They killed children and women with knives, they beat women, broke their arms.’ ”
Because we “destroyed” them [ISIS], as we did with al-Qaeda in Iraq–never seen nor heard from them or or their like again…
We, along with our “Muslim” partners, destroyed the “fake,” “perverted,” ideology ISIS preaches, teaches, and practices, drove it–every book that teaches it; every mosque and madrassa that propagates it–into oblivion …
