Well, the martyrdoms are coming to the West. Those associated with the Christian faith will be forced to make a choice: fall away and be “safe” or else grab onto Christ for all He’s worth in their lives, either for divine protection or for a spectacular witness when they die.

We might have denominational squabbles between us in the West, but the Allah-Akhbarbarians do not know from Orthodox, Roman Catholic, or Protestant. Maybe before this phase of things is over, these squabbles will start to look very small indeed compared with the menace that is upon us.

Croissant? The French pastry that was invented to celebrate a victory over those waving the, er, crescent flag?

Because, of course, we can’t think of anything that would “help” them better than to throw the USA open to them to make it their filthy doormat.

No idea yet, still investigating....................sarc

KILLING IS LATEST IN SPATE OF BLOODY ATTACKS ACROSS EUROPE

Today’s attack is the latest to hit Europe in what has been a year of bloodshed on the continent:

July 24: Festival suicide bombing - A failed Syrian asylum seeker set off an explosive device near an open-air music festival in the southern city of Ansbach that killed himself and wounded a dozen others.

The 27-year-old had spent time in a psychiatric facility, while the regional authorities said an there was ‘likely’ a jihadist motive for the attack.

However a spokesman for the interior ministry later said there was as yet ‘no credible evidence’ of a link to Islamic extremism.

July 24: Knife attack - A Syrian refugee was arrested after killing a Polish woman with a large kebab knife at a snack bar in the southwestern city of Reutlingen, in an incident police said did not bear the hallmarks of a ‘terrorist attack’ and was more likely a crime of passion.

Three people were also injured in the assault, which ended when the 21-year-old assailant was deliberately struck by a BMW driver, believed to be the snack bar owner’s son, trying to stop the man.
People mourn in front of candles and flowers near the Olympia shopping mall in Munich, southern Germany, where an 18-year-old German-Iranian student ran amok on a shooting spree on July 22

People mourn in front of candles and flowers near the Olympia shopping mall in Munich, southern Germany, where an 18-year-old German-Iranian student ran amok on a shooting spree on July 22

July 22: Munich mall mass shooting - David Ali Sonboly, 18, shot dead nine people at a Munich shopping mall before turning the gun on himself, having spent a year planning the rampage.

Police said that the German-Iranian was ‘obsessed’ with mass killers like Norwegian right-wing fanatic Anders Behring Breivik and had no links to the Islamic State group.

July 18: Train axe attack - A 17-year-old migrant wielding an axe and a knife went on a rampage on a regional train, seriously injuring four members of a tourist family from Hong Kong and a German passer-by.

ISIS group subsequently released a video purportedly featuring the assailant, named by media as Riaz Khan Ahmadzai, announcing he would carry out an ‘operation’ in Germany, and presenting himself as a ‘soldier of the caliphate’.

He is believed to have been Afghan or Pakistani.

July 14: Tunisian Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel ploughed a truck into a crowd of people celebrating Bastille Day in the French Riviera city of Nice, killing 84 people and injuring over 300.

The Nice attack was the third major strike on France in 18 months and was claimed by ISIS.

March 22: Suicide attacks claimed by ISIS kill 32 people and wound more than 300 at the Brussels airport and Maelbeek metro station, near European Union offices. They appear to have been carried out by members of the same cell that committed attacks in Paris four months earlier.

November 13, 2015: Coordinated suicide attacks in Paris kill 130 people and wound more than 350 at the Bataclan concert hall, cafes and the national stadium. ISIS claims responsibility for the attacks.

‘Allahu Akbar’ roughly translated is “This has nothing to do with Islam”.

In a statement from Krakow, Poland, where Pope Francis was visiting, Lebrun says ‘I cry out to God, with all men of good will. And I invite all non-believers to unite with this cry ... The Catholic Church has no other arms besides prayer and fraternity between men.’

Well those who don’t believe in God would do well to cry out to Him for salvation.

There is a happy gospel medium with respect to arms. Christians aren’t asked to be aggressors, but defenders they positively may be.

"Elderly priest, 86, is 'beheaded' by two ISIS knifemen shouting 'Allahu Akbar'...."

Don't jump to conclusions. Might be classic case of "workplace violence"....

Right. But if there is one thing we know for an absolute certainty—let’s all say it together: Islam had nothing to do with it!
