The practitioners of the Religion of Peace have been at it again.
From FNC:
Gunmen execute 16 people, including 4 nuns, in Yemen retirement home
A team of gunmen unleashed a massacre at a retirement home run by Catholic nuns in Yemen Friday, killing 16 people including four nuns, Yemeni security officials and witnesses said.
The gunmen then moved from room to room, handcuffing the victims before shooting each of them in the head. A nun who survived said that she hid inside a fridge in a storeroom after hearing a Yemeni guard shouting “run, run.”
Missionaries of Charity, an organization established by Mother Teresa, runs the home in the chaotic southern port city of Aden, which descended into lawlessness after a Saudi-led coalition recaptured the city from Shiite Houthi rebels last summer.
Yemen’s civil war has split the country in two. The northern region, where Shiite rebels are in control, has been struck by an extensive air campaign by a Saudi-led coalition. The southern region, which is controlled by the internationally-recognized government backed by Saudi Arabia, is suffering from a power and security vacuum. The Islamic State terror group and al-Qaida affiliates have exploited the lawlessness and created safe havens in the south.
No terror group immediately claimed credit for Friday’s slaughter.
Khaled Haidar told The Associated Press that he counted 16 bodies including that of his brother, Radwan, in the home. All had been shot in the head and were handcuffed. He said that in addition to the four nuns, six Ethiopians, one Yemeni cook, and Yemeni guards were among those killed.
Haidar said his family was the first to arrive at the house and that he spoke to the surviving nun, who was crying and shaking. Haidar said that his family later handed her over to a group of southern fighters in charge of security in the local Aden district of Sheikh Osman.
Vikas Swarup, the spokesman of India’s External Affairs Ministry, said the attackers had asked the guard to open the gate on the pretext of visiting their mothers at the retirement home.

Romney just says “its a religion of peace” (or implies it).
There is no explanation, nor words, for this. God bless the sisters, and the others killed.
Modern martyrs; may they rest in peace with God.
Amen.
“When Christians are persecuted two things happen. First, persecution causes those that are not truly committed to Christ to leave. If it is not something they truly believe in, why should they die for it? Second, it causes those true, committed believers to come together and be unified. And when true, committed believers are unified under the name of Jesus and empowered by the Holy Spirit, growth is natural.”

Mooslims are vermin who need to be exterminated.....
sigh. Evil people always lie and kill the helpless.
And the nun who hid: Reminds me of when communist inspired insurgents attacked one nearby mission: One elderly Nun lived in a side corrider with a door that looked like a closet One of the younger “insurgents” was supposed to check it out, and when she opened her door, he looked around, found they were alone, and told her: Sister, go inside and lock your door and don’t come out until morning.
She did, and lived. The other five nuns (and two priests) were taken out and shot.
And this group was given money to buy “food and medicine” (aka guns and ammunition) by that lovely group, the World Council of Churches, a liberal “christian” group...
Poor Francis seems more concerned with globull warming and Donald Trump’s wall along the Mexican border.

It’s not on our Arabic oil money supported MSM so it didn’t happen.
Mother Teresa pray for us.
Here is the story from the UAE. Yemen is a mess. I’m heading to Mass now and will pray.
Just got back from Mass here in Abu Dhabi and the 4 Sisters of Mercy killed in Yemen were a part of the Vicariate here. Of course prayers were offered for them and the others killed in the community. When the priest make the announcement at the beginning of Mass that they had been killed he also included an interesting remark:
“The attack was precise and pre-meditated”
Prayers up. I hope to attend the memorial Mass on Wednesday night.
“The attack — characterized by Vatican Secretary of State Pietro Parolin as an ‘act of senseless and diabolical violence’ — spurred a sharp rebuke from Pope Francis.
“According to Parolin, the Pope ‘prays that this pointless slaughter will awaken consciences, lead to a change of heart and inspire all parties to lay down their arms and take up the path of dialogue.’”

“Sharp rebuke” Like a “sternly worded letter”
