Will the Islamophobia never end?
“Christian Slain, Another Beaten Unconscious in Sudan,” Morning Star News, January 26, 2024:
JUBA, South Sudan (Morning Star News) – Militants from the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) killed one Christian on Saturday (Jan. 20) and beat another unconscious on Monday (Jan. 22) in Omdurman, Sudan, sources said.
The RSF militants, which have been fighting the Sudan Armed Forces (SAF) since April 15, shot dead Hidar Al Amin at his home in the Umbda area of Omdurman, across the Nile from Khartoum, a relative said.
The Muslim militants insulted Al Amin, a member of the Sudanese Presbyterian Evangelical Church in his 30s, for being a Christian, he said. They looted his property and left him in a pool of blood.
“He was killed by the RSF after they stole all that he had,” the relative said in a text message to Morning Star News.
On Monday (Jan. 22), RSF militants beat unconscious Al Thahir Kafi, a Christian merchant, before looting his home and shop in Omdurman, an area source said. Kafi is a well-known trader in the area now under RSF control.
Kafi’s Christian faith is also well-known in the area, and the militants who attacked him were Muslim extremists, the source said.
At least five church buildings have been set ablaze in Sudan since fighting broke out between the RSF and the SAF. In Al Jazirah state, which has been under RSF control since December, militants on Jan. 15 set a Greek Orthodox Church building on fire in Wad Medani, the state capital, an area pastor said.
The Greek Orthodox building is located next to an evangelical church building in the Hai Al Gism Al Aual area of the city, he said.
“The series of churches being set ablaze is ongoing in Wad Medani,” the pastor told Morning Star News.
Another Christian in Wad Medani, Karbino Bla, died on Jan. 5 from injuries sustained from an attack by RSF militants.
In Open Doors’ 2024 World Watch List of the countries where it is most difficult to be a Christian, Sudan was ranked No. 8, up from No. 10 the previous year, as attacks by non-state actors continued and religious freedom reforms at the national level were not enacted locally….
Mike says
But almost no one cares about Black African Christians getting killed by Islamists in Sudan, Nigeria, Mozambique or elsewhere in Africa ….where is Black Lives Matter (BLM), to comoment on these genocides?
James Lincoln says
BLM doesn’t care, Mike.
Doesn’t fit their narrative.

Humans are made of flesh and blood.
Their temples of worship are made of stone.
Their God is made of…?

Jesus said, “The thief (satan the devil) comes to steal, kill and destroy.” And He was, as always, correct.
The “children” of “the thief” do the same…”doing the desires of (their) father”
mozlums are intent on stealing from Christians, killing Christians and destroying what they cannot steal or kill.
And the “world.” which hates those who belong to Jesus, doesn’t care how many are killed or what is being stolen and destroyed.
