ISIS members marched into a Syrian town Friday evening demanding that all crosses be removed from the churches or have the buildings be completely destroyed, according to the Assyrian Patriotic Party.

Two trucks carrying 20 armed ISIS members stormed into the predominantly Assyrian town of Tel Hormizd in Hassakeh and forced the residents to remove the cross from the main church tower. Hassakeh, an area made up of five Assyrian villages, is locatedd on the Khabur River.

ISIS militants threatened to bomb the church if the cross was not removed.

“We are calling on the world to stop this next genocide of Christians in Iraq and Syria,” Emanuel Khoshaba, Secretary General of the Assyrian Patriotic Party, said to LisaDaftari.com in a phone interview.

That just makes them angrier.

I am convinced a good parody can come from that. “We demand you stop saying we aren’t real Muslims!”

“Coming soon to a church near you.”

Not likely, IMHO. First of all, a big part of the democrat/liberal base are Hispanic Catholics and African American protestant Christians. This is an issue over which they would abandon the democrats if they keep towing the ‘Islam is the religion of peace’ line.

Not likely, IMHO. First of all, a big part of the democrat/liberal base are Hispanic Catholics and African American Christians (non-Catholic and Catholic). This is an issue over which they would abandon the democrats if they keep towing the ‘Islam is the religion of peace’ line.

We need to start shutting down all the mosques, and yanking their loud speakers. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.

Another proof that these ‘Coexist’ stickers makes so much sense. Some letters in this abbreviation seems to be particularly good at it.

Someone needs to wake the sheeple... I suggest the following...

They are killing Christians in the Middle East and Africa.
Are you OK with that?
Are you going to let them in your country?

Twenty? Really? Twenty? Against the whole town? In a part of the world where it seems everybody owns a couple of RPG’s and an AK?
Fighting back involves fighting. If these folks are not willing to fight for themselves, then why should we do the jobs they won’t do?

We should bomb 2 Mosques for every 1 church they bomb...(hopefully with Muslims in them)

Hellno, I’m not ok with that. Got any ideas how we’re going to stop the barbarians when we have one occupying the white hut, and millions already here just waiting for a signal to attack?
Not to mention the bleeding heart dingbats who have bought into the peaceful religion BULLSHIT. Our t!t is in the ringer and our a$$ is grass.

“demanding that all crosses be removed from the churches”
Coming soon to a church near you.

I've read of some posters here saying that when they see Muslims here in the USA, they make the sign of the cross and grin at them. What are the muzzies going to do, try to remove those crosses?

I should have been more explicit...wasn’t asking you if you were ok with that. I was suggesting (last 3 sentences)what we should paste on message boards to wake folks up.

Sorry.

I’m sorry I misunderstood. Agree with you - people need to see something like that to wake them up.
