The remnants of the Islamic State in Syria want to make it clear to Christians that it is not safe to return. Meanwhile, Christians in the West are certain that a bit of “dialogue” will fix everything up. Won’t it?
“Three blasts kill at least 6 in Syrian town near Turkey,” Al Jazeera, November 11, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Three car bombs, exploding nearly simultaneously in the largely Kurdish city of Qamishli in northeastern Syria, killed at least six people as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL or ISIS) armed group said it shot dead a priest and his father….
The attacks came the same day an Armenian Catholic priest and his father were killed as they travelled to the eastern province of Deir Az Zor from Qamishli, where they were meant to inspect the restoration of a church, according to the Syrian Observatory.
That attack was claimed by the ISIL with its Aamaq website posting a copy of the priest’s identity card.
ISIL persecuted Christians, who made up 10 percent of prewar Syria’s population, and displaced tens of thousands when it ruled large parts of Iraq and Syria beginning in 2014….
Infidel says
Assyrians and other Syrian Christians should avoid getting into the situation of being caught b/w warring Muslim armies – be it Turkish, Iranian, Arab or Kurd. They should instead flee not to the Islamophilic West, but to nearby Christian countries such as Armenia or Georgia. Or maybe even non Muslim parts of the Russian Caucasus

Not always easy, Infidel.
And while things are getting worse in some places, the West is still much safer than Islamic war zones.
Infidel says
gravenimage, I know, but I was comparing the West to countries like Georgia and Armenia, which don’t look like having gone totally woke in terms of arresting people for expressing their views online, the way UK has. It’s not like these people are English speaking and would gravitate just towards English speaking countries. They’d be at a disadvantage anywhere they go, so they might as well go to the nearest Christian countries, which are culturally similar to them, rather than to countries that would persecute them a second time.

I take your point, Infidel.

Wherever there are moslims, there is a danger of terrorism, murder, rape. Wherever there are moslims, there is danger because islam is from satan the devil and he seeks to “steal, kill, and destroy.”
Herb says
America can’t see terrorism as we have permitted the Democrats to run the circus. The Quran demands submission, and Infidels are to support the Muslims as they declare that they are superior to the Western Values. They have a prophet that is self proclaimed, and a gog that was created by a self proclaimed prophet and the Quran states that Allah is the best of deceivers, while the Bible agrees with the Quran that Allah is the greatest deceiver and Muhammad is the Messenger, so the only FACT that can be obtained from these two sources is that Satan is the greatest of deceivers, and Muhammad is a deceiver, and the Bible states that Satan is the great deceiver, also proves that the whole Quran is a huge lie to support SATAN. FACTS, nothing but the FACTS.
FYI says
They are simply following the murderous example or sunnah of their “prophet” muhamed: a Mass-murderer of Jews{Abu Dawud 4390}
“Why is prophet muhammed one of the greatest revolutionaries?
He initiated crucial changes in the 7th c including racial equality,women’s rights,compassion for the poor and orphans and care for the environment/animals.
Above all else,the revolution was one of {Peace]”
dr{!!} craig considine today on twitter:muslim apologist.
Racial Equality?
mo was the owner,buyer and seller of BLACK AFRICAN slaves
Sahih muslim 3901 “and he [muhamed} sold him..for TWO of the Blacks”
women’s rights?
women have only HALF the value of a man due to the “deficiency of the mind”
Sahih Bukhari 3:48:826 according to perfect mo.
“Aisha said to muhammed;”you have made us equal to the dogs and asses”
Sahih Muslim 4:1039
compassion for orphans?
Does that include the orphans from Abu Dawud 4390?
care for the environment,,?
Invading and destroying wherever he went…
Peace?
MASS-MURDERING JEWS{Abu Dawud 4390}
Only a muslim {or a convert to islam} or a Saudi{etc} funded “academic” would promote such blatant lies that {are even AT ODDS with islamic sources
