Reunited: boys saved from slavers [Christian children captured by Muslim slave-traders]
Times Online ^ | May 21, 2006 | Marie Colvin

A SENIOR member of an Islamic organisation linked to Al-Qaeda is funding his activities through the kidnapping of Christian children who are sold into slavery in Pakistan.

The Sunday Times has established that Gul Khan, a wealthy militant who uses the base of Jamaat-ud Daawa (JUD) near Lahore, is behind a cruel trade in boys aged six to 12.

They are abducted from remote Christian villages in the Punjab and fetch nearly £1,000 each from buyers who consign them to a life of misery in domestic servitude or in the sex trade.

Saudi Arabia didn't ban slavery to 1962 and still turns a blind eye to trafficking.

Just for once I'd love to see a liberal explain why they're such lovers of Islam given the fact that Islam is the major purveyor of slavery in the world today.

I'm sure the response would begin..."but Bushhitler...blah, blah, blah"

The most dangerous threat to the existence of mankind is the dangerous cult of Islam (Mohammedanism).

When the Turks took over the Balkans long ago, they took Serbian and Greek children as a blood tax... with the same results... slavery and WORSE!

Seems mussies NEVER really change do they?

who consign them to a life of misery in domestic servitude or in the sex trade.

Let's take a wild guess at the breakdown. I'd say 5% domestic servitude and 95% sex trade.

What! The religion of peace condoning slavery. Sir! I am astonished. Lets take another tact. If a boy sells for 1000 pounds, a 303 Enfield sells for about 100 pounds. It might pay to have an Enfield and 20 to 40 rounds in the corner of your house.

Instead of using that $28K to set up a sting, lets buy rifles and ammo, and issue them out to Christian families.IMHO

This is not only a cultural, political and historical battle but it is also a spiritual battle. These children are hated and reviled for their love of Jesus and the faith they have in Him. So even while we try all secular means to stop this horror I urge us never to give up the battle on the spiritual front.

Our Lady Help of Christians please pray for the children who are enslaved and abused for their faith. With you we pray that your son, our Lord Jesus Christ may protect and free them and bring their captors to justice. Blessed Virgin we remember that at the Battle of Lepanato your appearance struck terror in the hearts of the Muslim enemy and forced them to flee. May the supplications of the faithful once again move your Son to show the enemy that no evil will triumph against them.

Lord we put full trust in your victory through the Cross. We plead with you as our Savior to confound and scatter this enemy so that they may no longer make war against your children.

For your name's sake, amen.

Actually, child slaves in that part of the world are often used for agricultural labor, and as indicated by this case, forced street-begging is also common (though this was a sting, the plan described was obviously quite believable to the sellers). Girls are more likely than boys to end up in brothels (though of course quite a few boys do too), and I would think form the majority of domestic slaves too (after all, these people routinely treat their wives and daughters as households slaves). And some boys up as camel jockeys in various Arab countries, beaten into cooperation and starved so that they won't gain weight and slow the down the camels they ride in the races.

Nonsense. This is just garden variety exploitation, and the Christian children are more popular targets, since Christians (whose faith bears little resemblance to yours) are a minority in these countries, and thus the kidnapper/trade slavers encounter much less social, political, and legal backlash if they take Christian children. They enslave plenty of Muslim and other children, too. Anything for a buck. They couldn't care less what these kids believe or don't believe. Heck, they teach their own kids to blow themselves up.

I fail to grasp why we haven't vaporized this "base" yet.

Technology scores! Camel Jockeys are being replaced by robots. "Doing jobs that Christians won't do!"

Islam is a supremacist faith. A cult of an antiChrist figure who replaced Jesus.

Islam is the only major religion to acknowledge the existence of Jesus while at the same time denying His divinity, His crucifixion, and His resurrection.

Mohammed leads the flock astray. Mohammed was "the last prophet" so there is no reformation possible from within Islam and mulsims are prohibited under penalty of death from converting away from the faith of Islam.

The only true reformation of Islam can come when the followers reject the false prophet Mohammed and return to the original biblical text as Jews or Christians (depending on a newfound acceptance of Jesus). It won't be easy as the jihadists see any attempts at ministering to muslims to be a war on Islam.

Islam is intolerant of other faiths (placing Jews and Chrisitans beneath them in rights and legal status, and those of other faiths like Hinduism and Buddhism at the bottom). They consider us to be sub-human (whether or not they believe their own rhetoric about Jews being the offspring of pigs and monkeys).

As sub-humans, they see little reason to treat a kufir (non-muslim) as anything other than a cow. Use it as you would any other beast. Call it property or kill it.

There are Islamonazis making just these proclamations in this documentary:

So I pray that muslims will see the light and cast off the cult that enslaves their minds (and they DO conside themselves slaves of Allah). There IS another way. Reject the rantings of a dead conqueror.

I respectfully disagree with you if the subject is limited to slavery. If the subject is the overall treatment of children in Muslim countries and the Jihadist propoganda they take in with their mother's milk I agree with you.

Has this story been in the MSM anywhere?

Can't help but wonder what kind of coverage it would have had if it Westerners engaging in sex slave rings.

Double-standard?
