Christians Crucified In Iraq, Dutch MP Says
BosNewsLife ^ | 16 July 2007 | Eric Leijenaar

Posted on 07/18/2007 8:55:05 AM PDT by BGHater

Militants have crucified Christians in Iraq, including converts from Islam and people involved in "mixed marriages," a senior Dutch parliamentarian has established.

Joel Voordewind of the governing coalition’s junior party 'ChristianUnie', or ChristianUnion (CU), said he managed to confirm information received from a "trustworthy source" at the United Nations about the recent crucifixions, according to declarations obtained by BosNewsLife Monday, July 16.

Several Iraqi Christians "are nailed to a cross and their arms are tied up with ropes. The ropes are put on fire," Voordewind said.

Voordewind described how a person, who "survived" a crucifixion, "even showed holes in his hands," apparently from nails. Voordewind said victims of the crucifixions are “in most cases Christian converts who abandoned Islam or people who, religiously speaking, are involved in mixed marriages."

FOREIGN MINISTER

He did not say how many Christians have been crucified in recent weeks and months, apparently not to pre-empty an official report expected shortly. The politician was due to present his findings to Dutch Minister of Foreign Affairs Maxime Verhagen, a Christian Democrat, within the next few days.

A lot of people don’t know that more Christians have been killed for their faith since 1900 than in all the previous 1900 years combined.

These fanatical wackjobs will be coming to a city near you if the US Congress doesn’t quit playing power games. Reid, Pelosi, Kennedy, et al. better face reality; we are at war for our survival against fanatics that want us all dead. Elitist Liberals are too busy feeding their egos and trashing the country in their quest for power to be concerned about our safety and security.

Christians are not one of the protected classes. This kind of violence is not a problem. Back to the “offended” minorities please.

First and foremost: My prayers for the souls of these martyrs and saints.

Second: Until our leaders prove they could lead a Cub Scout pack, much less our nation, our only hope is that these barbarians kill each other (as they are only too happy to do) before they kill us.

And yet: "One of those attending last week's conference was the Dutch integration minister, Ella Vogelaar. Mrs. Vogelaar gave an interview to Trouw, a Dutch Protestant newspaper. She said that Muslim immigrants must feel appreciated. According to the minister, the Dutch have to help "Islam take root in the Netherlands."

"Mrs. Vogelaar, a member of the Dutch Labor Party, told Trouw that the Netherlands, while so far a country of Judeo-Christian traditions, is gradually becoming a "Judeo-Christiano-Islamic" society. She clearly considers this process beneficial, although, she added, it "may still take a couple of centuries" before it is fully achieved. Mrs. Vogelaar is saying nothing new. Every visitor to major West European cities can see that the continent's urban areas are rapidly turning Islamic — a dramatic process, which, if not stopped, will take only decades, not centuries, to achieve.

"Mrs. Vogelaar's dishonesty lies in her feigned appreciation for the Judeo-Christian roots of Dutch society, to which she would now add a third religious component. The Dutch Socialists played a prominent role in transforming the Netherlands into a radically secularist society, from which God is absent and where people who are reluctant to perform same-sex "marriages" cannot find jobs in the civil service.

"The Dutch Labor Party did everything in its power to undermine Judeo-Christian religions, but it is today the vehicle of the most radical Islamization. This has nothing to do with appreciation for yet another religion, but rather with the fact that, like secularism, Islamism is an enemy of Judeo-Christian values."

Sura 5:33

The recompense of those who wage war against Allâh and His Messenger and do mischief in the land is only that they shall be killed or crucified or their hands and their feet be cut off on the opposite sides, or be exiled from the land. That is their disgrace in this world, and a great torment is theirs in the Hereafter.

Its all in the militant's play book to create an atmosphere of hatred between religions in order to facilitate a global religious war in which they believe they will be the victors.

I tell y’all what, I am so sick of the middle east muzzi crap that I just about believe we should pull the heck out completely. Wait until the last ‘man standing’ and go in and tell them to keep their muzzy crap there or we will erase them from the script. I just don’t think we can win by fighting the way we have for the last ten, twenty, or thirty years.

“Leaving them alone to fight it out”

Wow.. what a strategy! Reminds me of the last time we tried it... remember Afghanistan... civil war. That ended well.

I know, I am just so sick and tired of all the “ticks and fleas” that keep sucking my blood. Maybe a big ole dose of DDT would take care of em all.
