Once again, the world yawns. Only if the roles were reversed, which they would not be and should not be, would the international media take any notice of this.
The cross is an affront to Islam. The Qur’an claims that Jesus was not crucified, although in somewhat equivocal language for what is supposed to be the perfect word of an omniscient god:
“And their saying, ‘Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, the messenger of Allah.’ And they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him; but another was made to resemble him to them. And indeed, those who differ over it are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And they did not kill him, for certain.” (4:157)
And a hadith depicts Muhammad saying: “The Hour will not be established until the son of Mary (i.e. Jesus) descends amongst you as a just ruler, he will break the cross, kill the pigs, and abolish the Jizya tax. Money will be in abundance so that nobody will accept it (as charitable gifts).” (Bukhari 46.37.2476)
This means he will destroy Christianity (break the cross), force the Christians to obey the Islamic food laws (kill the pigs) and end the second-class dhimmi status (abolish the jizya) that Islamic law specifies for Christians, such that they will either have to convert to Islam or be killed.
“Minor seminary in Burkina Faso attacked,” CNA, February 10, 2022 (thanks to Tom):
Saint Kisito de Bougui, a minor seminary in Burkina Faso, was attacked overnight, the pontifical charity Aid to the Church in Need announced Friday.
No lives were lost in the attack, which took place the night of Feb. 10-11, though “there was a lot of material damage.”…
ACN said the it had been informed by local partners “that the jihadists came by motorbikes” late in the evening of Feb. 10, and stayed at the seminary for an hour.
The attackers burned two dormitories, a classroom, and a vehicle. Another vehicle was stolen.
A crucifix was destroyed, and the assailants said “they don’t want to see crosses,” telling the seminarians, according to ACN, “they should go now, that they will come back and if somebody remains there they will kill them.”
The pontifical charity said the seminarians are now with their families for a week, and some residents of Bougui are leaving the town.
Burkina Faso, located in West Africa, has seen an increase in Islamist violence in recent years….

These jihadist invaders are clearly coming to TERRORIZE the Roman Catholic seminarians into DHIMMITUDE as per the Pact of Omar, also known as the Dhimmi Contract.
The Pact of Omar is the DEFAULT POSITION of Muslims as they jihadists appear to express. They don’t want Christians to display their symbols where Muslims may see them. These jihadists want ‘DHIMMITUDE’ and they used terrorism to impose it.
‘Dhimmitude’ may be defined as a behaviour dictated by FEAR of terrorism, PACIFISM when aggressed, rather than resistance, SERVILITY because of cowardice and VULNERABILITY to emboldened jihad-terrorists … Dhimmis, by their PEACEFUL SURRENDER to the Islamic army, believe they will gain security of their lives, belongings and religion, but they must accept a condition of INFERIORITY, spoliation and HUMILIATION. Since Dhimmis are forbidden to possess weapons and give testimony against a Muslim, they are put in a position of permanent vulnerability and humiliation.

I’ve given up on waiting for Pope Francis to speak out about Islamists terrorizing Catholics.
Depressing.

This is what he said in 2019:
“Pope Francis urges dialogue in face of ongoing jihadist violence in Burkina Faso”

Right–because “dialogue” works so well with people who are mass murdering you…

“The world hates you because it has hated me.” “You will be persecuted for my Name,” Jesus warned His disciples.
mozlums hate. mozlums are taught to hate Christians and Jews especially, and all others of mankind.
satan the devil would like nothing better than to destroy Christ’s disciples and the demon has many willing children who want to carry out his desires.
This will not stop until isllam is no more.

Burkina Faso: Muslims attack Catholic seminary, destroy cross, burn two dorms, classroom, and vehicle

It never ceases to amaze me that these attacks by Muslims on Christians keep happening in out of the way places like Burkina Faso, some backwater in darkest Africa.
Nevertheless it continues to happens in the so called “advanced nations” as well. So it’s not that the powers that be don’t know about Surah 157, it is that they just don’t care.
Why is it that it keeps happening all over the world and nobody seems to care about the fate of Christians?
After meditation the suspicion became more and more pronounced. The reason is obvious. It is not that they care so much about Islam, it is that they hate Christenson even more and wish to see it destroyed.
The powers that be want to see their Nemesis destroyed because the cross represents to them the enemy.
These haters in their malevolent calculus see Christianity as the biggest fish. But once they destroy it, they will turn their sights on Islam as well. Because those psychopaths want the Kingdom, but they don’t want God in it. They want see themselves elevated to demigods…
OLD GUY says
While the so called moderate MUSLIM may not commit jihad personally they support it financially and through their silence about islamic violence and murder of non-muslims. Islam wants to rule the world and destroy western society and culture. They have shown us this time and time again through their destruction of religious sites around the world and the continued MURDER of Christians, Hindu and Jews.
Time to wake up the mass migration of Muslims/Islamic people into western society is a HUGE mistake. There is NO diversity or Freedom with Islam, only HATE and DEATH.
