What kind of person thinks Christians in Pakistan, as embattled as they are, would commit blasphemy in Pakistan? Pakistan’s blasphemy laws are routinely abused to persecute Christians, settle personal scores, seize the accused’s property, etc. Yet the world yawns. This doesn’t fit the establishment media narrative, in which Christians are always white oppressors and Muslims are always victims.
“Two Christian Nurses in Pakistan Accused of Blasphemy,” by Ayaz Gul, VOA News, April 10, 2021:
Police in eastern Pakistan have registered blasphemy accusations against two female Christian nurses and launched an investigation into a crime that carries the death penalty in the majority-Muslim nation.
The accusation against members of the minority community is the latest in a series of controversial blasphemy cases in Pakistan, where critics say such charges often are motivated by personal vendettas, or religious hatred.
Police said that Muslim coworkers at a government hospital in the city of Faisalabad accused the nurses Friday of insulting Islam by removing and desecrating a wall-hanging that contained verses from the Quran.
The allegations quickly spread around the building and provoked scores of staffers to stage a demonstration to demand legal action against their Christian colleagues. An enraged Muslim mob, largely activists of an Islamist party from a nearby locality, later also joined the crowd.
Witnesses said an angry protester assaulted one of the nurses, Mariyum Lal, with a knife and injured her before riot police arrived at the facility to take both the women into “protective custody” and get them out of the hospital building.
Lal reportedly told police she had been asked to clean up the cupboard of the hospital’s female head nurse, who is Muslim. Lal said that while doing the job, she removed the adhesive wall-hanging and gave it to the head nurse before finishing the night shift along with the other accused Christian colleague and returning home.
Lal said the next morning the head nurse in the presence of other Muslim staffers accused her of desecrating the holy inscription….

“This doesn’t fit the establishment media narrative, in which Christians are always white oppressors and Muslims are always victims.”
IMO, Most in the establishment media also think all Muslims are either black or brown.

Except that in Pakistan, Christians too are people of color. While a huge percentage of muslims – particularly the Pathans – are white. Not Caucasian, maybe, but definitely white, as they originate from the other side of the Hindu Kush

What happened to those who accused the prophet of being anything but white?

PRCS : I couldn’t agree more! and as a Canadian Christian guy myself originally from Iraq, I wanna say that western governments including Canada have flooded the west with Muslims like those from Pakistan while did next to nothing to take in persecuted Christians of th Middle East especially of Iraq , Syrian and Egypt let alone of Africa
Walter Sieruk says
“Evil is always looking for an excuse.” As seen in the “blasphemy charges ” against those two Christian nurses
Likewise there are many Muslims who strongly dislike Christians. Some Muslims even hate Christians so much that they even become violent against them, some times even murderous violent .
One reason for this is that in the mosques and madrasas the Muslim clerics, as the imams who speak many awful and unproven terrible things against Christians and Christian doctrine.
So much so the many Muslims get all worked up against Christians and Christian teachings and some those Muslims commit violent actions against Christians. Such false religious teachers, as those Muslim clerics, who speak to people unfounded and invalid evil things about Christians and Christian doctrines have been described in the Bible. For the Bible informs the reader in Second Peter 2:12. “They speak evil of things they do not understand, and will utterly perish in their own corruption.” [N.K.J.V.]
It also should be make clear that in this specific above Bible verse, as well as in John 3:16. The word “Perish” does not mean loss of being but loss of well-being. As in going to ruin by ending up in languishing in torment in a terrible place of suffering that the Bible calls hell. Luke 16:19-31.

Christians are Infidels–not Muslim–and this is enough for Muslims to hate them. This is whaty Islam teaches.

Well they spread that crap here already .They infiltrated the criminal elements and law enforcement .They helped to create the drug war .Whos kidding who they invented it .Spread as much dope as possible, get the effects, convince police and communities that they need to clean it up .Which translated to long prison sentences and forfeitures .So they could steal the kuffirs money property and firearms[can’t have self defense now can they] They are some of the sneakiest, dankest, vile, things this planet has ever spawned.
btw you can attest to whether they have infiltrated either .The criminal element becomes much more violent and the cops become holier than hell .False self righteous beliefs and the ensuing behavior. They will try to frame up someone for coke to .What they do is far more vile than a street cop will do .Unlike normal medical fraud, that obtains money from treatment, never carried out .These freaks use it as a cover to frame up their target .Their favorite behind drug treatment is cancer treatment .Well at least here in the us .Can’t say what they do elsewhere but I am sure its similar.

In the video Harris Sultan says that Imran Khan is an Ahmadi.
The video includes footage of the baying crowd outside the hospital, being so loud and dangerous that the police say “Let’s get out of here”.

Of course, police in Pakistan seldom do much to protect Christians at the best of times…

Oh these Christians in Pakistan are always causing trouble in our Muslim lands, They have the domicile’s sword dangling over their heads and yet have the audacity to practice their faith.They must be cousins of the evil Whites. The lefties, who work for us have lost their mental balance, let us see what the Democ-rats are doing about the polluting of our holy lands by these infidels. They must be driven out…Sarc off
This is the summary of Islam for you. Black lives don’t matter.

Pakistan is a evil country persecuting Christians but the media won’t talk about it they will only talk about the uighars while there’s genocide of Christians and Hindus in Pakistan why doesn’t the mainstream media critise Pakistan on the persecution of Christians Hindus the same way it critises China on the persecution of Uighars?
Andrew Blackadder says
Some people think of such muslims as backward but i think they are way behind backward… like way way behind backward…Savages…

After the Jihad inspired massacre in Colorado the American mainstream news media were chomping at the bit to further promote the white man bad narrative. As soon as they discovered it was a Muslim they backed off quickly. I remember watching one of the white male whores on MSNBC exclaiming with limited restraint how this was another example of white supremacy.

It isn’t possible to stop liars from lying, especially the most expert and desensitized of them.

Pakistan is a failed state.

Pakistan: Muslims accuse Christian nurses of blasphemy, enraged Muslim mob gathers, one of the nurses is stabbed
………………..
Just horrifying. And, as noted, this is almost certainly a false accusation to begin with–very common in Pakistan.
