A February Rasmussen report sheds light on just how divorced from reality millions of American liberal voters are. After pointing out that “Democrats are more likely to think Muslims are mistreated in America than to think Christians are persecuted in the Islamic world,” the report elaborates:
Fifty-six percent (56%) of Democrats, however, believe most Muslims in this country [America] are mistreated, a view shared by only 22% of Republicans and 39% of voters not affiliated with either major party. Fewer Democrats (47%) think most Christians are mistreated in the Islamic world, compared to 76% of GOP voters and 64% of unaffiliateds.… Women are more likely than men to think most American Muslims are mistreated here but less likely to believe Christians are mistreated in the Islamic world. Nearly as many voters under 40 think most Muslims are mistreated in America (51%) as think most Christians are mistreated in the Muslim world (57%).
To put these dismal statistics in perspective, consider some facts. Open Doors, an international human rights organization that publishes annual reports concerning the global persecution of Christians, noted in its most recent report: “215 million Christians experience high levels of persecution.” During 2017, a reported 3,066 Christians were killed, 1,252 abducted, and 1,020 raped or sexually harassed on account of their faith. And 793 churches were attacked or destroyed.
The overwhelming majority of this slaughter and destruction occurred in 50 nations — 38 of which are Muslim-majority.
“Islamic oppression” is further responsible for the “extreme persecution” of Christians — meaning the abuse, rape, imprisonment, or slaughter of Christians on sight — in eight of the worst ten nations. “Every day,” the organization adds, “six women are raped, sexually harassed or are forced into marriage to a Muslim under threat of death due to their Christian faith.”
The above statistics are actually conservative. Based on the findings of the Italian-based Center for Studies on New Religions, “90,000 Christians died for their faith in 2016” alone, a great many under Islam.
It’s worth noting that the overwhelming majority of Muslims persecuting Christians are not “terrorists” (at least not formally), but rather come from all rungs of Muslim society.
Take Egypt, for example (the 17th worst nation where Christians experience “very high persecution”). According to the report, along with “violent religious groups,” two other segments of society are “Very Strong[ly]” responsible for the persecution: (1) “Non-Christian religious leaders” — meaning Muslim clerics, sheikhs, imams, and the rest — “at any level from local to national”; and (2) “Normal citizens (people from the general public), including mobs.”
Similarly, “officials at any level from local to national” are “strongly responsible” for the “oppression” of Egypt’s Christians, particularly “through their failure to vindicate the rights of Christians and also through their discriminatory acts which violate the fundamental rights of Christians.”
That the same segments of Muslim society are involved in the same patterns of persecution of Christians throughout the Islamic world — despite the racial, linguistic, cultural, and economic-political differences of all these African, Asian, Arab, and Caucasian nations — further underscores the only commonality, or true source of the persecution: Islam.
Now, compare all this to the supposedly worse — in liberal minds — “mistreatment” Muslims suffer in America.
According to a November 2017 Pew report: “In 2016, there were 127 reported [Muslim] victims of aggravated or simple assault.” In the preceding decades, assaults on Muslims averaged around 50 a year.
Even if this number were accurate, it pales in comparison to what millions of Christians — not 127 — are experiencing under Islam. But the fact is many of these anti-Muslim hate crimes are later found to have been fabricated or grossly exaggerated. Note, for instance, how the Pew report conflates “assaults” with “simple assaults” — even though the latter “does not involve physical contact with the victim.”… Keep reading
Benedict says
“Americans “Mistreat” Muslims More than Muslims Mistreat Christians?” –
Muslims mistreat Muslims more than any other group of people. The explanation is that Islam is an ideology that promotes mistreatment of anyone and everyone.
The frustration of living in an Islamic culture that admonishes people to act according to an instruction manual for humanoids will inevitably express itself first in mistreatment of oneself and then from there in an ever increasing circle of mistreatments.
J D S says
Mistreatment! Isn’t that actually the ideology of islam?
At every turn in this SATINIC religion I see Mistreatment. One other prevalent part of islam is LYING and it sure comes out in this sham of an article.

Jay Boo, I found Obama’s presidency appalling, but no–Democrats were not trying to vote in Osama bin Laden. I live in a very “blue state” area, and most of my neighbors just thought of Obama as “hopey changey”, and patted themselves on the back for having voted in the first African-American president (although they would not have felt the same way about someone like Colin Powell, Condoleeza Rice, Ben Carson, or Allen West, of course).
But most of them have been completely clueless about Obama’s harmful Islamophilia. Most of them think of Muslims as “needy refugees”, anyway.
None of them are actually for Jihad terror (which they all assume has nothing to do with Islam, of course).

Christians have equal rights under Sharia as people of the book.
Dimmie have rights just as Muslims so that’s equal. However dimmie rights are not the same as the rights of the believers.
Jack Diamond says
Dhimmis have no inherent rights, period. Their rights are conditional on their following the rules designed to make them feel humbled and humiliated as subjugated people and on their paying the ransom for their lives (jizya and other onerous taxes to the Islamic State). Dhimmis have no inherent right to life. Any act or word of theirs (or their brethren) that is seen to break the treaty of “protection”in the eyes of their rulers, that in any way insults Islam or Muslims, reverts them back to their primordial condition–in a state of war with Islam, without the third option any longer. Only convert or die (s. 9:5).
We know how Islam views the kafir, mr. goat.

All this mincing and parsing of words is going to do, is get more innocent people raped, cut up, blown up, and killed..
Please note that I have not yet identified, which group of folks are doing all this damage, and to whom. Reason? Because, there really is no debate here, relating to who’s who any longer in this world-wide tragedy…
We are dealing with an insane political ideology, masquerading as a religion, and using (In the [ OUR ] United States) OUR US Constitution and (OUR) Bill of Rights, as cover and protection, in order to infiltrate, and to destroy our nation from within.
This has happened before in terms of world history. This IS why Poland and a few other nations are saying NO to all of this today. They have long memories, and he result is always the same..
In the meantime, and as a result of this collective stupidity in our midst, more innocent people will die..

The services of Open Doors is really welcome, especially in the light of states becoming numb to the crimes done in the name of Islam. May a thousand Open Doors bloom.
I am sure millions of non-Christians are also persecuted in Islamic countries where more than 20% are Muslims.
It is would be better if Open Doors highlights the trauma of non-Christians living in Islamic nations. This will be the least it can do to take counter Jihad to next level and make it truly global.
The ratio of 127:millions is rather lopsided in favour of the religion of terror.
The world needs to be educated about the atrocities of Muslims, especially the Left.
MFritz says
Critisising muslims is considered “violence” by leftists these days. Even “micro aggressions” are considered “violence” – (even “rape” by feminazis).
Thus, if I call a rapist and a murderer what he is, I’m “hurting” him as a human being by saying the truth. The very same goes for muslims. Once the facts are stated in public, they become a “minority” that must be “protected”.

Yes–this is crazy. It’s as though a lot on the left don’t even recognize what actual violence is anymore.

Walter Sieruk says
The reality, of course, that the Muslims are the people who mistreat more Christians than the other way around. A person has to be willfully blind and ignorant not to see and understand this.
Furthermore, this current conflict may be understood as “The war of ideas between the Christian West and the Islamic East.” Concerning this photograph of a Muslim striking a Christian man in the face with his fist. This is, very much, a reminder of the 1979 movie entitled TIME AFTER TIME. For the hero of that movie said “The first man to raise his fist is the man who has run out of ideas” Therefore , it may only be concluded that in this war of ideas between the Christian West and the Islamic East it must be the Muslims who are the ones who have “run out of ideas”
Ibrahim itace muhammed says
It is beyond dispute that evil united states maltreats Muslims more than any nation on earth.

Jack Diamond says
This is what “maltreatment” during worship looks like, shit for brains:
Oct. 31, 2010 Baghdad, Iraq–Our Lady of Salvation Church is attacked during Sunday Mass by armed jihadis. 58 Christian worshippers, including two priests, were murdered, and almost 100 wounded (many losing their limbs) by suicide-homicide bombers whose explosive vests were filled with ball-bearing to cause maximum damage.
January 1, 2011, Two Saints Coptic Church in Alexandria, filled with worshippers, was bombed killing 23 Christians and wounding another hundred {“body parts were strewn all over the street outside the church. The body parts were covered with newspapers until they were brought inside the church after some Muslims started stepping on them and chanting Jihadi chants, including “Allahu Akbar!”…
Witnesses further attest that ‘security forces withdrew one hour before the church blast.'”}
December 25, 2011. Christmas in Nigeria. Islamic terrorists bomb several churches during Christmas liturgies, killing at least 38 people…a reenactment of Christmas Eve a year earlier when several churches were set ablaze and Christians attacked. Then, at Easter, some fifty Nigerian Christians were killed when explosives in two cars parked next to the Assemblies of God’s Church during Easter Services went off (2012). December 25, 2012 saw Islamic gunmen shoot and kill 12 Christian worshippers who had gathered for Christmas Eve church services.

What utter crap. As Ibrahim itace muhammed knows, it is Muslim nations that have the largest wbestieb searches for all types of bestiality, despite fewer Muslims having access to computers:
Google, the world’s most popular Internet search engine, has found in a survey that mostly Muslim states seek access to sex-related websites and Pakistan tops the list. Google found that of the top 10 countries – searching for sex-related sites – six were Muslim, with Pakistan on the top. The other Muslim countries are Egypt at number 2, Iran at 4, Morocco at 5, Saudi Arabia at 7 and Turkey at 8. Non-Muslim states are Vietnam at 3, India at 6, Philippines at 9 and Poland at 10.
Here are the Muslim countries and how they placed in the top five world ranking of various bestiality-related internet search terms:
Pig Sex: Pakistan (No. 1) Egypt (No. 2) Saudi Arabia (No. 3)
Donkey Sex: Pakistan (No. 1) Iran (No. 3) Saudi Arabia (No. 4)
Dog Sex: Pakistan (No. 1) Saudi Arabia (No. 3)
Cat Sex: Pakistan (No. 1) Iran (No. 2) Egypt (No. 3) Saudi Arabia (No. 4)

Well, this is just ludicrous. Were this true, of course, Muslims would be refugees fleeing from the United States, instead of eagerly–and often illegally–flooding *in* to the US.
And the “proof” Ibrahim itace muhammed cites of how bad things is utterly false. There have been *no* such cases of Americans kicking or trying to have sex with Muslims at prayer. Ibrahim itace muhammed has–of course–never been able to cite any such cases. Were this rife as he implies, he should have no trouble citing cases.
And no–no Jews have told Americans to kick or have forcible sex with praying Muslims–links, please.
Meanwhile, of course, Muslims regularly kidnap, rape, and murder Infidels in Dar-al-Islam. Moreover, Ibrahim itace muhammed *himself* has affirmed that Muslims can rape and murder and Infidels who do not submit to Islam.

Raymond Ibrahim: Americans “Mistreat” Muslims More than Muslims Mistreat Christians?
……………………
Right–because Islamophobic Americans regularly kidnap, rape, and forcibly marry Muslims; regularly bring false blasphemy charges against them, which can lead to death sentences; reguarly force conversion to Christianity, Judaism, or Atheism; regularly blow up or shoot up Mosques full of Muslims at prayer; regularly use Muslim women as sex slaves; and regularly mass slaughter them. Oh…wait…no they don’t…
Muslims certainly do this to Christians all the time in Dar-al-Islam, though.
Raja says

How can Americans be so f*cking ignorant?
Kay says
The ignorance is appalling, especially if any of those who don’t know about the persecution of Christians are themselves Christian. I think Christian leadership is partly to blame.
Raja says
Kay, I agree with you that Christians should themselves to blame because Islam is so much anti-Christ. So-called Christians don’t even read the bible and to make it worse they know nothing about Koran or Mohd.
1 John 4:
1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit but test the spirits to see whether they are from God because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
2 By this, you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God;
3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming,
LeftisruiningCanada says
Islam surely teaches another gospel, another Christ, and another Spirit.
Lydia Church says
muslims mistreat Christians more than any other group gets mistreated by anyone at this point in history. The percentage of persecution and martyrdom of Christians by muslims increases every year. There are multiple sources for this information, all one needs to do is type in ‘persecution of Christians in the world’ in any search engine and look for the statistics. Foxe’s Book of Martyrs also documents this in the updated edition.
They are ignorant ostriches to say otherwise!
CRUSADER says
Demographics being as they are, you can take 10% off the board due to those being blanking idiots!
Another 20% is just irreconcilable.
So, that’s a third of any poll, right there.
Then there is “the other side” — who usually are so open-minded to ANYTHING that their brains have fallen out, and they forgot how to utilize principles of CRITICAL THINKING.
Another 10% are just too busy to regard any answer completely.
We are left with approximately: 20%-25% (which is similar to the old 20/80 Rule, anyway)….
Nearly a quarter of us — in what demographics offers — are actually SANE and viable for action!
A figure, under the right conditions, such as full blown warfare, could account for Jihad Watchers.

Jack, mithraist wild Birom christians in Nigeria killed Hausa Muslims in Jos, burnt down their houses and properties, fried and eatened their dead bodies in the same way mithraist wild christians did in central African Republic where pagan Christian was shown on screen proudly eating human flesh. in kaduna state of Nigeria, a Christian army General called zamani leckot led genocidal killings of Hausa Muslims where a whole Hausa town of zangon kataf was obliterated.
Are you saying these Christians shall not be blamed according to law of grâce inspired by the Satan ?

If you are going to mention a person from your “country” Nigeria at least spell his name right General Zamani Lekwot .The mass murder and mayhem you named that befell the Moslems in village of Jos were perform by the Islamic group Boko Haram .Many Moslems are not Moslem enough for that blood lusting group .The Yoruba and Hausa ,both Moslem have little love for each other ,the Hausa push to make Sharia the law of the land. If they did not have Christians to fight and slaughter they would gladly kill each other .
Ibrahim itace muhammed says
wpm, you lied. No Boko haram in Jos. Boko haram operates in North Eastern Nigeria in the state of Borno and Yobe far away from jos in central Nigeria. jos is inhabited by wild Birom christians Who carried out genocidal killings of Hausa Muslims and Nomadic fulani cattle rearers.
WPM says
Of course you will blame Boko Haram being created by Zionist Jews ,America CIA plot ,or the Evil “Holy Spirit” people that are hiding under your bed or in your closet in the dead of night .Where are these cannibal Christian soldiers on the internet ,next to the stories from Islamic folktales on Jews using Moslem children blood sacrifice to make Passover snacks?
