Pakistan: Muslims proud of beating Christians
Spero News ^ | 1/15/11

Posted on 01/15/2011 5:52:03 AM PST by markomalley

Two Christian women were beaten and publically humiliated by Muslims in Pakistan by an angry mob over accusations of blasphemy. According to local media reports, the two women and their families are now in hiding for fear of being killed.

According to Pakistani daily, The Express Tribune, a male member of the family said over the telephone, "None of our relatives is ready to let us stay with them. They fear the wrath of the extremists, particularly after the assassination of Salmaan Taseer." Taseer was a member of the Pakistani government recently assassinated for having advocated clemency for those accused of violating Islamic religious law. His assassin, Malik Mumtaz Qadri, has been widely celebrated by Islamic religious leaders in Pakistan and elsewhere in the Muslim world for his deed.

According to the family, the allegations stem from a dispute between Amina, a Muslim, and her sister-in-law Zahira, a Christian, in an East Lahore locality. The two got into an argument on January 11. While the disagreement appeared to have been settled, on January 12, after her husband Zahid had gone to work, Amina walked out onto the street and started shouting that Zahira had defamed Muhammad, the founder of Islam.

A short while later, a group of men led by Muhammad Sameer, a member of an Islamic religious organization, forced their way into the house and started beating Zahira, said another of her brothers, Sohail. "Other men and women from the neighbourhood started gathering at the house too and they beat up my sister and mother. They were the only people in the house," he said.  Khadim Hazoor, Sameer’s son-in-law and another participant in the beating, said that the women’s faces are now black and blue. They were also forced to wear necklaces of shoes and paraded on donkeys to humiliate them. He said the women denied blaspheming and repeatedly touched their feet begging for mercy. 


"We tried our best to get her to confess her crime," Sameer told the press. As a member of an Islamic religious organization, he said he could not tolerate any defamation of his namesake. He belongs to the same organization as the assassin Qadri.

Sameer added that he was very proud of his wife's participation in the mob beating. "She beat Zahira more than anyone else. Her hand is so swollen that she hasn't been able to make rotis (bread) since the day of the incident. I've been getting my meals from a restaurant," he said.

Islam is an insane murder cult, from Mad Mo in the bat cave until today.

The “Koran” is a vile, hateful screed filled with the rabid droolings and rantings of the syphillitic pirate, liar, thief, mass murderer, torturer, executioner, rapist, pedophile, polygamist, slave trader, racist, truce-breaker, unspeakably cruel tyrant, and genocidal savage, Mohammed.

Liberals enjoy having a laugh about the Salem witch trials but substitute the word ‘witchcraft’ for ‘blasphemy’ and they might understand the retrograde nature of Islam and its sandal-bashing adherents.

Muslims don’t realize that it is impossible to humiliate a Christian.

Mad Moe was a prideful warlord, Jesus died on a cross.

To think these people can actually justify their actions of beating or killing people. Very scary and to think we are letting more into America all the time.
What the hell are we thinking ?

Leftists care neither about Salem or today’s Islam. They only act indignant to hide their own selfish, cowardly, and amoral nature.

My. My. My. Such a peaceful and tolerant religion.

Just think of all the butts we'd have to kick here in America if we heard that someone had taken God's name in vain in the media or denied Jesus was the Christ or soaked crucifix's in urine or other blasphemies promoted as art.

Yes sir. Mighty peaceful and tolerant religion ya got there Obamalamadindong.

Makes me want to go out and beat my back with chains for being so ignorant of the fact that I am an infidel in their eyes.

I had some idiot tell me recently that he witnessed discrimination against Muslims every day but had never heard of it against Christians. I guess I need to link this article for his benefit.

That is, if he can read.

He doesn’t read much does he. There was a recent attack on Coptic Christians right around New Year’s in Egypt that rocked the country. That guy really is an idiot. Christians are under attack world wide. China, too. Many places. He has his tiny brain buried in the sand.

There is a sizable Christian community in Lahore with schools, literacy centers, churches and a clinic for the neighborhood. Please pray for them as this violence spreads. Our church works with this mission:

The only way we can change this is to make more Christians. Sooner or later they’re going to find out that Mo was a nutjob.

He said to them, "But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one. " - Luke 22

Good advice ignored far too long by Earth's Christians.

Islam needs the sword at its throat until its rotten head comes off.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

All true, but it’s quicker to refer to him as the son of a pig f’n dog.

Islam is a nation the devout Moslem lives in and for no matter where he resides.

To allow equality to the infidel is a mortal sin.
