Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Hungary’s FM praises Trump for raising issue of persecuted Christians to international political agenda

Nov 21, 2020 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 8 Comments

In 2017, Mike Pence promised that the U.S. would defend Christians who were being slaughtered by the Islamic State in the Middle East.

This past Wednesday, Fox News published an article about persecution of Christians by Muslims in Africa: Nigeria’s Christians become target of genocide as international community remains silent: advocates. The genocide is worsening:

Thousands of churches have been torched, children massacred, pastors beheaded, and homes and fields set ablaze by the tens of thousands, with people being targeted for their Christian faith alone.

All this is happening while the Pope of Islam has made his primary mission Islamic outreach. Many other Christian denominations have followed the same path, exalting Islam and engaging in outreach with the “religion of peace” while turning their backs on the persecuted Church.

Both Hungary and the Trump administration have put the globalist EU and most of the Western world to shame for ignoring persecuted Christians, while the EU pushes its agenda on increasing Muslim migration. Meanwhile, Trump and Orban endure accusations of “Islamophobia” and “racism.” This ignores the fact that persecuted Christians in the Middle East and Africa are visible minorities.

“FM Szijjártó Praises Trump for Raising Issue of Persecuted Christians to Int’l Political Agenda,” Hungary Today, November 18, 2020:

Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó praised the Trump administration on Tuesday for raising the issue of persecuted Christians to the international political agenda.

Szijjártó said on Facebook during an online meeting of the International Religious Freedom or Belief Alliance that had US President Donald Trump not put this issue on the agenda, then the countries committed to protecting Christian communities could not have been as successful as they had proven to be.

He highlighted the role of Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and expressed hope that cooperation between Hungary and the US in protecting Christian and other religious communities would continue.

Szijjártó said the world was facing great challenges including the novel coronavirus pandemic, terrorism and migration. He added that the latter two were closely linked because terrorist organisations had been forcing peaceful people to leave their home and uncontrolled migration flows had made it easier for terrorists to freely move around the world.

“We in the European Union have sad experiences when it comes to the massive migratory flows” and the enormous risks they involve, he said, citing recent terrorist attacks in France and Austria. Szijjártó said that unfortunately Europe had to face anti-Christian ideologies and attacks becoming increasingly accepted by the “liberal mainstream”.

Hungary’s government has helped more than 100,000 persecuted Christians in 27 countries to stay in their place of birth in the Middle East, Africa and Asia through a scheme dubbed Hungary Helps, he said. The government has allocated 44 million dollars…

    Continuing these revelations in America could save Trump’s immigration ban from jihadi countries.

    Hungary is setting a fine example for other Western nations to follow.

    God bless Hungary. A bulwark of sanity in the continent of insane political correctness.

    I have no idea how to pronounce his name but Szijjártó is heroic. I’ve watched multiple interviews of him sparring with the press and not one inch will he give them when they try to scold Hungary on immigration and its national values. He doesn’t even accept the premises of their loaded questions. I’ve seen the same fire from Dominik Tarczynski of Polish parliament. Flat, unapologetic honesty is a beautiful thing to behold in glib liberal gotcha TV interviews, and especially from politicians, who are so often spineless, pandering and unable to cohere or defend a position without their handlers present. I am honestly at a loss as to how to explain Macron’s sudden showing of real grit on the issue of Islam steamrolling the West, but I welcome it. I hope he stays the course. It’s been disheartening seeing Orban and Eastern Europe all alone on this and villified for so long.

    The “lives that matter” to most EU politicians are those who will vote for them.

    What Christian migrant from a Muslim nation would vote for them when the persecution of migrant Christians by Islamists simply continues in the new host nation?
