BOLD: Female Arab journalist asks, 'What if Christians were suicide bombers?'
Christian Examiner ^ | 2/29/2016 | Gregory Tomlin

DOHA, Qatar (Christian Examiner) – A female Arab journalist who lives in Qatar has penned a bold article that asks Muslims in the Middle East how they would respond if Christian suicide bombers struck their public markets, collapsed their tall buildings or tried to force Muslims to convert to Christianity.

Liberal Saudi journalist Nadine Al-Budair writes in Kuwait's Al-Rai newspaper that Arab countries have refused to address the problem of terrorism and have yet to create a climate that matches the liberal, humanitarian climate of the West. She asked Muslims to consider what their world would be like if Christians the world over had responded to Muslims the way terrorists have spread radical Islam.

"Imagine a Western youth coming here and carrying out a suicide mission in one of our public squares in the name of the Cross. Imagine that two skyscrapers had collapsed in some Arab capital, and that an extremist Christian group, donning millennium-old garb, had emerged to take responsibility for the event, while stressing its determination to revive Christian teachings or some Christian rulings, according to its understanding, to live like in the time [of Jesus] and his disciples, and to implement certain edicts of Christian scholars," Al-Budair writes in a translation of the editorial provided by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).

She’s asking to have her head removed from her body.

They don’t take kindly to anyone questioning their so-called religion.

How would Muslims respond if Christian suicide bombers struck their public markets, collapsed their tall buildings or tried to force Muslims to convert to Christianity?

By doing the same evil things they are doing now.

Well, for one thing, the US media would be united in their condemnation of such actions.

Keep in mind our "suicide" bombers look like this:

Be a shame to have to use them.

She of course hints at the difference between Islam and Christianity. Love. You do not murder your brother, it is against God’s law. Islam is a religion of hatred and war. It’s that simple. Jesus said “ By their fruits you shall know them.”

Well, according to Hussein, they are. They just don't blow themselves up. Hussein thinks that Christians have destroyed the peaceful MooSlime way of life. He views Christians as being far more destructive than any other identifiable group.

Amazing, the LIGHT is beginning to shine into dark places. Hope it happens again, and again, and again, and again.

A terrible shame. I cannot imagine something so horrible like that happening.

Its the American Left that would go bonkers if she wrote that here.

The future must not belong to those who deny the true nature of Islam

John Quincy Adams on Islam

In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.

Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).

Indeed. It would truly be a shame if that bizarre black moon cube and all of the deranged, mindless, crazed zombies revolving around it were turned into vapor. How truly sad it would be.

Suicide is an unforgivable sin for Christians.
Unlike Islam and trips to paradise, in Christianity where the opposite would happen.

Probably after having their way with her, multiple times, for punishment and non believing, you see.

I have a feeling we won’t be hearing much from this journalist in the near future if she remains in Qatar much longer.

Well, she is no longer “innocent”, so it’s all OK.
