This Friday, in the city of Christchurch (New Zealand), two mosques were attacked by a terrorist equipped with firearms, who was shooting at everyone who was there.
Genocide in Nigeria: Over 6,000 Massacred Christians and Media Silence in the West
Christianophobia: 33 Muslim countries are among the 50 that most persecute Christians
A horrendous crime whose victim of younger age was only 3 years old
The terrorist killed 50 people, including a 3-year-old boy, Mucad Ibrahim. The murderer, Brenton Tarrant, broadcast the crimes live on Facebook, a video that millions of people have seen and that shows the criminal entering one of the mosques and firing their weapons against everyone who was inside. This massacre deserves the rejection of any minimally decent person. I hope that the full weight of the law falls on Tarrant, and that he is confined in a prison from which he is never allowed to leave: in New Zealand, fortunately, there is a life sentence to punish the most serious crimes.
The Guardian newspaper points to the Conservative Party of the United Kingdom
As it could not be otherwise, throughout the world there have been gestures of rejection towards this massacre, from political leaders and media, to religious leaders of different confessions. Some reflections that I have read have caught my attention. The British progressive newspaper The Guardian published an article signed by H.A. Hellyer, a Muslim author, with this title: “The Islamophobia that led to the Christchurch shooting must be confronted”, in which its author affirms the following: “every time we deny the threat of anti-Muslim bigotry, or underestimate the extent of Islamophobia – including in our party of government, the Conservative party – we give succour to those in our society who seek to whip up hate against our Muslim communities.” In the mention to the Conservative Party a link appears to a news article that talks about critics to the Islam by members of that party (for example, this opinion of a preservative politician is mentioned: “we’ll be a Muslim country under sharia law if Labour get in”). That is to say, that Hellyer relates an anti-Muslim attack in New Zealand with the criticisms of Islam that some politicians occasionally make on the other side of the world.
El País newspaper says of Islamophobia what it does not say about Christianophobia
In the same line, today the Spanish socialist newspaper El País publishes an editorial with this title: “Islamophobic attack”. The subtitle of that editorial makes this statement: “Hate speeches against the Muslim community can not have a place in a democracy.” The text ends with these words: “Combating Islamophobia is a duty and a quality test for democracies.” This statement is striking in a newspaper that has never published an editorial calling to combat Christianophobia, despite being the main reason for persecution against believers (in the world, 3 out of 4 persecuted because of their beliefs are Christians) and being, as it is today, the reason for 77% of the attacks against religious freedom in Spain. Attacks that leftist media such as El País tend to make invisible, perhaps because a large part of these expressions of hatred come from the political left. That newspaper is, in fact, a clear example of media with anti-Catholic prejudices: El País came to compare Ireland with Pakistan months ago, and also compared Asia Bibi – Christian mother condemned to death for blasphemy in Pakistan – with Willy Toledo, a Spanish communist actor who faces criminal cases for attitudes such as mocking the murders of Catholics in the Spanish Civil War.
The unequal reaction when Islamists murdered 148 Christians
The double yardstick of the progressive media in relation to Islamophobia and Christianophobia also includes reactions to terrorist attacks. On April 2, 2015, Islamist terrorists attacked Garissa University in Kenya, killing 148 Christians. The terrorists were looking for Christians to kill them by shooting and beheadings. The clear Cristianophobic mobile of that massacre was disguised by many politicians and media. In the European Parliament, leftist parties tried to erase all reference to Christians in the motion to condemn the massacre. The Guardian and El Pais then issued no appeal against Christianophobia, although it had clearly been the motivation of those terrorists when it came to cruelly selecting and killing their victims. Nor have there been political and mediatic appeals against Christianophobia, except for honorable exceptions, before the genocide of thousands of Christians in Nigeria, which is taking place before a staggering media silence in the West. Why this double standard? Are the lives of Christians worth less than those of other human beings? Where is the limit of the aversion of Western politicians and media against Christianism?

The American MSM and the left and SO MANY countries and leaders around the world must HATE the 100+ million people in America that stand in their way of COMPLETE world dominance and control.
Because out of 7 billion people, I think, that’s the group that’s holding freedom up, and it weighs a lot.

#ChristiansMeh!
Islam is in attack, the WEST is in retreat and the muzzies know it full well.
Why are we not calling Omar and MoFo Tlaib and our other elected domestic enemies Judeophobes?
They call us islamaphobes.
They are at least as Judeophobic as they are antiSemetic.
There’s a religious element to this, but there wouldn’t have been much of a an uproar if a Kenyan Christian had killed 50 Kenyan Moslems.
Simply put ... among media and political leaders today, people in predominantly white countries are condemned for mass killings. Apparently mass killings are considered the norm in Third World dumps.
bkmk
When m*slims kill Christians, the politicians put cops around the mosques to protect them. When a non-m*slim kills muslims, the politicians put cops around the mosques to protect them.
I tried to point this out in a National Post article today and my post was censored.
The difference between killing 148 Christians in Kenya and 50 Muslims in New Zealand?
One is is a non-story, the other an act of terror ... one is just some guys practicing their religion, the other is a Trump-supporting right wing murderer ...
They are the shock troops for the globalist Marxists - who assume their money, power, and status will insulate them from the havoc they have unleashed.
The Arab Spring was the beginning of the new Blitzkrieg. All of Europe, Britain, and America - the vestiges of Western Civilization and Biblical Christianity, and, hence, personal liberty - are the new Lowlands.
Murder is of course wrong, but comparing 50 murders as the more heinous crime in comparison to the murder of many more than that......which is the worst? rktman is absolutely right.
