SOMALIA: ISLAMISTS BEHEAD TWO SONS OF CHRISTIAN LEADER
Compass Direct News ^ | July 01, 2009

Father refuses to give al Shabaab extremists information about house church pastor.

Islamic extremists have beheaded two young boys in Somalia because their Christian father refused to divulge information about a church leader, and the killers are searching Kenya’s refugee camps to do the same to the boys’ father.

Before taking his Somali family to a Kenyan refugee camp in April, 55-year-old Musa Mohammed Yusuf himself was the leader of an underground church in Yonday village, 30 kilometers (19 miles) from Kismayo in Somalia. He had received instruction in the Christian faith from Salat Mberwa.

Militants from the Islamic extremist group al Shabaab entered Yonday village on Feb. 20, went to Yusuf’s house and interrogated him on his relationship with Mberwa, leader of a fellowship of 66 Somali Christians who meet at his home at an undisclosed city. Yusuf told them he knew nothing of Mberwa and had no connection with him. The Islamic extremists left but said they would return the next day.

“I watched my three boys dragged away helplessly as my youngest boy was crying,” Arbow said. “I knew they were going to be slaughtered. Just after some few minutes I heard a wailing cry from Abdulahi running towards the house. I could not hold my breath. I only woke up with all my clothes wet. I knew I had fainted due to the shock.”

With the help of neighbors, Arbow said, she buried the bodies of her two children the following day.

see, I can't ever be a "good" Christian because I just don't believe in turning the other cheek.....I will not be taken prisoner to be tortured and killed...

I do not believe God would want us to stand idly by while innocent children are killed......I just don't believe it...

bull-****. The "islmmic" golden age was due to the Christians in Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, North Africa, Jordan, Iraq, Turkey, Iran. It was due to the Zoroastrians in Iran, Central Asia, Turkey, India. It was due to the Hindus and Buddhists in Afghanistan, Central Asia, western India (now Pakistan).

The only place that didn't experience the slammie golden age was the SAud peninsula: because Christians had been hounded out of there in the 8th century.

The rule is -- as the % of Mozzies increase, the overall culture, intelligence, IQ, civilisation, morality etc. decrease correspondingly.

Jesus said the greatest love was when we die for others, but said we must turn our own cheek. So, logically, we can and should defend, with our lives, the least of these (especially the Pre-born) and make sure you take a brother with you so he can cover your back, and you his. Jesus will avenge all the innocent murdered. God also views the acts of murder on a different time line than we do.
