Just read a story elsewhere about a mob of Muslim youths in Senegal that attacked a Jehovah’s Witnesses hall and a bar. A spokesman justified the attack by saying, in part, that someone from the JW hall was handing out crosses.

It’s nice when they blunder into such a provable lie. JW’s don’t believe Christ was crucified on a cross, and consider it to be a pagan symbol.

thanks for posting this.

they burned those Christian’s HOMES, just on the “rumor” of one being... (the horror!) ...a church.

why? because they are follower their religion.
Islam forbids building churches in lands under Islamic law.

...Islam needs to be banned in all Western Countries. NOW.

The Christians of Egypt need to leave now!

Yet Obama's recent executive order is to import 80,000 more Muslims.
