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).

If she wrote that in most liberal Western countries, she would be arrested for “hate speech.”

Arabs don’t think, they just spread evil and kill.

BipolarBob ~ Be a shame if Mecca were turned to glass.

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

Yeah. But it wouldn't be quite so bad if medina and that damnable well in qom were also vaporized and glazed

What would Muslims do? Little to Nothing.

Except join the Left and progressives worldwide for the utter elimination of Christianity tomorrow.

This is a joke. There is no such thing as a Christian suicide bomber. A true Christian will not kill themselves intentionally. God is the giver of life. He gives, and he takes away (Job 1:21). Suicide, the taking of one’s own life, is ungodly because it rejects God’s gift of life. No man or woman should presume to take God’s authority upon themselves to end his or her own life. Therefore the question being asked is irrelevant. A waste of time.

'What if Christians were suicide bombers?'

What if water were not wet?

If Christians were suicide bombers it would show that they weren't really Christians.

Because suicide bombing is antithetical to what it means to be a Christian.

As opposed to the fact that Islamic suicide bombers are fulfilling the meaning of what it means to be Islamic, according to their "prophet" and "holy" book.

What could better highlight the difference between Christianity and Islam than this?

...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.

Easy. The adherents to the Religion of Pieces would simply say that the Christians would be, by definition, wrong, because they don't adhere to the Koran.

Because the muslim killers have the Koranic "truth" on their side, they are justified in their murders, rapes, lies, and other crimes. No other group is allowed to do these things in the name of their religion.

“”Unlike Islam and trips to paradise, in Christianity where the opposite would happen.””

Do you truly believe jihadists wouldn’t suffer the same fate as a Christian and anyone else who does what they do or do you believe they really are going to paradise? I believe God has other plans for them.

“”Want to place a bet on how long it is until she is murdered by her fellow moozlums?””

We’d probably never hear about it for sure or it would be reported as a tumble down a staircase or fall from a 20th floor balcony or some such. What a beautiful woman. Organize these people, please - let the world hear their message.

From one of the comments posted at the article. After approximately 1400 years, they haven’t gotten it done yet?

“”We are Muslims who live in the 21st century. We stand for a respectful, merciful and inclusive interpretation of Islam. We are in a battle for the soul of Islam, and an Islamic renewal must defeat the ideology of Islamism, or politicized Islam, which seeks to create Islamic states, as well as an Islamic caliphate.””

The fallout would be incredible. There’d be an immediate crackdown on all things Christian.

We can’t even express our opinion about homosexuality without being branded as *haters* and *extremists*.
