Suicide bombers kill dozens of Christians in Pakistan. NOW will the world wake up ...

Complete Headline: Suicide bombers kill dozens of Christians in Pakistan. NOW will the world wake up to the Islamist war against Christianity?

Can we go easy on the phrase "religion of peace" today? Of course most Muslims are horrified what may be the biggest slaughter of Christians by Islamists in modern times: at the time of writing, estimates of the number of dead at All Saints' Peshawar are ranging from 60 to 200. These faithful worshippers are the victims, first and foremost, of Islamic fanatics whose psychotic creed is held by a small minority of the world's Muslims.

But… they are ALSO the victims of our "ally" Pakistan's failure to protect Christians who have pleaded for protection against the religious cleansing that led to over 100 homes being torched in a Christian enclave of the city of Lahore in March by a mob furious at reports of alleged blasphemy. Don't tell me that every member of that mob was a paid-up, al-Qaeda jihadist: this is also tribal violence inspired by an extreme interpretation of Islamic teachings that is gaining traction in the developing world. What has the Pakistan government done to stop it? Not enough (if anything).

Come to that, how much have Muslim community leaders around the world done to condemn this sort of slaughter by their co-religionists? Not enough. Let's see if they manage more than their usual regretful throat-clearing today.

Zak, right there is where I knew the rest of the article was rubbish.

They think it is fun. They are doing what they have done for centuries since emerging from Hell. All moozlums hate you and want to murder you and your family.

I agree. Why hide the fact that we are at war with them? Bring it own now...
