Central African Republic: At Least 17 Killed After Islamists Attack Church That Shielded Thousands Of Refugees

07/08/2014 Leave a comment

John 16:1-2, “… the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers God service. And these things they will do to you because they have not known the Father nor Me.’”

By Morgan Lee, The Christian Post – “Seventeen were killed and 10 wounded on Monday after Muslim rebels in the Central African Republic attacked a church which had provided refuge for thousands of the country’s beleaguered citizens. The Rev. Thibault Ndemaguia confirmed the number to the Associated Press several hours after the attacks.

Residents believe that the fighters attacked the Catholic Church compound in Bambari seeking revenge for the death of a young Muslim man, reported Reuters. Between 4,000 and 6,000 Christians are believed to have taken shelter at St. Joseph Cathedral of Bambari.

The Rev. Firmin Gbagoua, a priest at St. Joseph’s, told Reuters that he believed the attackers assumed the cathedral was hiding members of the Christian militia, or anti-balaka.

A Seleka official defended the actions of his group and told Reuters that his group had been attacked by the anti-balaka.

‘All we did was retaliate,’ a spokesperson for the group, Ahmat Negad, said.

Some blamed French forces for insufficiently acting to prevent the attack, though the military argued that after it had been attacked it ‘immediately returned fire.’ It did not mention whether it had been the country’s Christians or Muslim fighters who had targeted it.

The Central African Republic’s violence stems back to the takeover of the majority Christian country last year by the mostly Muslim Seleka rebel group, whose time in power was marked by a string of rights abuses that spawned the anti-balaka.” Read more.

Thursday’s clashes marked the worst unrest in Bangui in nine months and raised fears that waves of retaliatory attacks could soon follow. ‘They are slaughtering us like chickens,’ said Appolinaire Donoboy, a Christian whose family remained in hiding.” Read more.

Armed with a ‘hit list’ of pastors and places of worship, Seleka rebels systematically looted church property, even seizing money from collection plates, according to Barnabas Fund, a Christian aid and advocacy group working in the region. The reports, monitored by BosNewsLife Saturday, June 1, come after last month’s report released by the Human Rights Watch group cited ‘severe violations’ committed by Seleka rebels against civilians including rape, pillage and execution.” Read more.

Syria-Iraq: Church Leader Fears Christian Life Will Eventually Come To An End In The Region

Many Churches Attacked, Destroyed

By BosNewsLife – “Minority Christians in Syria and neighboring Iraq faced more upheaval Monday, July 7, after an Islamic group expelled tens of thousands of residents from their homes and crucified at least nine people.

The Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) reportedly forced some 30,000 people to leave their houses in the eastern Syrian town of Shuheil. Many fear their homes will be looted, said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a respected monitoring group.

The ISIL, which declared the territory in Syria and Iraq a ‘caliphate,’ or Islamic state, also nailed nine men to a cross in Syria’s Aleppo province last week as punishment for rebellion, several sources said.

Usually the men ISIL crucifies are shot in the head first, then hung for public viewing with their arms tied to a horizontal beam, according to observers familiar with the situation.

However one of the nine men was ‘crucified alive for eight hours’ in the town of al-Bab, said the Syrian Observatory. The report didn’t specify if the man was killed.

It was unclear whether Syrian troops, who apparently advanced in and around the northern city of Aleppo on Monday, July 7, would be able to halt the ISIL fighters. Yet, most Christians have already been forced to flee Syria and Iraq, where the head of the Chaldean-Catholic Church, Patriarch Louis Raphael I Sako, fears Christian life will eventually come to an end in the region.

‘In ten years there will perhaps be 50,000 Christians left’ in Iraq, he said in a statement released by Catholic charity Aid to the Church in Need and obtained by BosNewsLife. ‘Prior to 2003, this figure was about 1.2 million. Within ten years we have shrunk to a community of perhaps four to five hundred thousand faithful,’ he added.

‘When I was in Turkey recently ten Christian families from Mosul arrived. And in the space of only one week twenty families left Alqosh, a completely Christian town not far from Mosul. This is very serious, we are losing our community.'” Read more.

“Islamic State” Limits Water Supply To Christian Towns In Northern Iraq

07/08/2014 2 comments

Before setting their sights on Israel, the “Islamic State” must first focus on everyone else under its sphere of control — other co-religionists who have not yet fallen in line with the “prophet” Mohammed’s vision of “pure” Islam, and all Christians who refuse to convert …

Revelation 13:16-18, “And it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate [ψηφίζω – “reckon”] the number [ἀριθμός – “multitude” of people] of the beast, for it is the number [ἀριθμός – “multitude” of people] of a man, and his number [ἀριθμός – “multitude” of people] is [χξς – “In The Name of Allah” in Arabic].”

AINA News – “The water purification plants in Mosul supply water for the city and surrounding areas. After taking control of Mosul on June 10, ISIS severely limited the water supply from al-Rashidiya and al-Slamiya water projects, which provide the Northern and Southern Nineveh Plain with potable water (AINA 2014-06-27, 2014-06-18). According to a report by the Hammurabi Human Rights Organization, ISIS is allowing only about 90 minutes of pumping per day.

The Assyrian towns of Baghdede, Karemlis, Bartella, Tel Kepe, Batnaya and Bashiqah — home to nearly 200,000 Assyrians — face severe water shortages.

Residents have begun digging wells to secure water, but are limited by a lack of funding.

The towns of Baghdede, Karemlis and Bartella, with a population of 70,000 Assyrians, require more than 20 Artesian wells to supply the water needs of the residents. Each well typically costs about $30,000 to install, with operating crews and generators. $600,000 is required to install these wells.

Donations have come forth. The Christian Endowment will finance 4 wells; the Consulate of The United Arab Emirates has pledged money for 4 wells.

The Hammurabi Human Rights Organization, an NGO based in Baghdad, has stated that it is prepared to begin installing wells pending funding.

If water shortage crisis is not resolved soon, Assyrians will be forced to abandon their homes and villages and move to areas where they can find water.” Source – AINA News.

Israel Approves Call-Up Of 40,000 Soldiers, Preps For Major Offensive Against Gaza As Hamas Terrorists Threaten Tel Aviv

We’re barely into Summer, but for Hamas it’s that time of year again when the community all bands together towards the hope of a bumper crop and ritual sacrifice. After all, harvesting the skulls of Jews is an act of worship that draws them closer to “Allah”

Ezekiel 35:1-6, “Again a message came to me from the LORD: ‘Son of man, turn and face Mount Seir, and prophesy against its people. Give them this message from the Sovereign LORD: ‘I am your enemy, O Mount Seir, and I will raise my fist against you to destroy you completely. I will demolish your cities and make you desolate. Then you will know that I am the LORD. Your eternal hatred for the people of Israel led you to butcher them when they were helpless, when I had already punished them for all their sins. As surely as I live, says the Sovereign LORD, since you show no distaste for blood, I will give you a bloodbath of your own. Your turn has come!’”

Haaretz – “Israel launched a series of airstrikes on Gaza militants early on Tuesday, dubbing the offensive ‘Operation Protective Edge.’ More than 50 targets were hit in the offensive.

Meanwhile, rocket fire on Israel’s south continued. According to the IDF, eight projectiles were launched between 2 and 6 A.M.

Militants in Gaza fired more than 85 rockets toward Israel on Monday evening, with Hamas openly claiming responsibility for some of the launches for the first time since the current round of fighting began. The rockets hit several major cities in the south and, also for the first time in the current fighting, caused alarms to go off in central Israel and Jerusalem. The barrages lightly wounded two Israelis and caused property damage.

The Israel Defense Forces called up 1,500 infantry and Border Police reservists in preparation for further escalation, after the security cabinet decided on Monday afternoon to intensify attacks against Hamas and other terrorist groups in the Gaza Strip. A senior official said the ministers want to refrain from a large-scale military operation for now, but they instructed the army to prepare for significant expansion of its current operations.

Palestinian officials said Gaza was bracing for further Israeli attacks. They said Hamas had evacuated likely targets and its leaders had gone underground lest Israel attempt to assassinate them. Hamas also issued a statement on Monday night demanding that the Palestinian Authority take action against Israel, saying ‘national unity sometimes requires paying a price.'” Read more.

Sweden: Malmo Muslims Beat Man With Iron Pipes For Hanging Israeli Flag In Window

07/07/2014 4 comments

A Nazi flag would have been perfectly fine in Muslim Malmo. But an Israeli flag is so offensive it spurs outbursts of anger and violence. I wish I could say we’ll never see this sort of behavior manifesting itself on this side of the pond, but, sadly, it has already begun …

By Daniel Greenfield, FrontPage Mag – “Malmo is Ground Zero for anti-Semitism in Sweden. Its large Muslim immigrant population has terrorized the Jewish community.

Anti-Semitic attacks tripled there in 2013. And its left-wing mayor has blamed Jews, while excusing Muslims.

When a journalist from the Malmö daily Skånska Dagbladet asked him in January 2010 about growing anti-Semitism in his city, he replied, “We accept neither anti-Semitism nor Zionism in Malmö.” His reaction to the fact that Jews are leaving his city because of anti-Semitism was to maintain that “there have been no attacks against Jews, and if Jews want to leave for Israel that is not a concern for Malmö.” In an interview with Danish television in March 2010, he described criticism about his statements regarding Jews and Zionism as an attack orchestrated by “the Israeli lobby.”

When the Wiesenthal Center repeated the travel advisory at the beginning of 2012, Reepalu called the decision bizarre: “I get the impression that the aim of the [Simon Wiesenthal] Center is to make people forget what is going on in the state of Israel—human rights abuse that all people should denounce.”

This is an ugly attack and the latest in a long series of them in Malmo.

A 38 year-old man was assaulted in Malmö, Sweden, on Sunday – for the sole crime of hanging an Israeli flag in his window.

The assailants broke the man’s window first, prompting him to seek the perpetrators, police said.

They added that ten people chased the man from his building, wielding iron pipes. He managed to narrowly escape his attackers and was taken to hospital with serious injuries.

“Our initial evaluation is that this is a hate crime,” Malmö policewoman Marie Keismar added. The incident has been categorized as “aggravated assault.”

Robert Spencer: Mainstream Media Attempting To Whitewash The New Islamic Caliphate

07/07/2014 1 comment

When Islam’s politically correct enablers and the Western media go out of their way to whitewash everything else to do with Islam, why not take it a step further and whitewash the “Islamic State” itself? …

Proverbs 14:8, “The prudent understand where they are going, but fools deceive themselves.”

By Robert Spencer, Real Clear Religion – “The dominant dogma regarding jihadism, that Islam is a religion of peace that has been hijacked by a tiny minority of extremists who distort its teachings to justify violence, has been put to a severe test by the declaration of a new caliphate in Iraq and Syria. The mainstream media is fighting back.

The Islamic State, as it calls itself, has issued several declarations thick with Koranic citations and mainstream media to explain and justify its positions. Its conscious, explicit, and deeply rooted Islamic character has rattled mainstream media cages — to the extent that articles have begun to appear claiming that this new caliphate is no caliphate at all, so unlike its illustrious predecessors as to be unworthy of the name.

That was the central claim of an article that appeared in the New York Times Wednesday: ‘The Caliphate Fantasy’ by Khaled Diab, ‘an Egyptian-Belgian journalist based in Jerusalem.’ Diab complains: ‘The problem with this new caliphate… is that it is ahistorical, to say the least.’ Why? Because ‘the Abbasid caliphate, for example, which ruled from 750 to 1258, was an impressively dynamic and diverse empire.’ The Abbasid caliphate, Diab asserts, ‘thrived on multiculturalism, science, innovation, learning and culture — in sharp contrast to ISIS’ violent puritanism.’

Multiculturalism? Bat Ye’or, the pioneering historian of dhimmitude, the institutionalized second-class status Islamic law stipulates for non-Muslims in the Islamic state, notes of Jews and Christians in this ‘multicultural’ caliphate that ‘it was during the Abbasid period that their degrading status developed and was integrated into the legal system of the dar al-Islam.’ She writes of the crushing taxes that the Abbasids made the dhimmis pay, in accord with the Koran’s dictum that they ‘pay the jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued’ (9:29). ‘Money was extorted by blows, torture and death,’ Bat Ye’or writes, ‘particularly by crucifixion.’

Ultimately ‘the dhimmis, ruined by taxation, abandoned their lands and villages,’ hoping to escape to the anonymity of the city, whereupon a ‘drive to track down dhimmi peasants, organized throughout the Abbasid Empire, required a considerable number of participants, who were joined by brigands greedy for plunder and pillage.’ The plunder and pillage of the minority communities was considered to be their due Read more…

The Religion Of Thievery: ISIS Caliph Of All Muslims Wears Stolen $6000 Watch

07/07/2014 2 comments

Here we have a “pure” Islamic entity that, as commanded by the “prophet” Mohammed, claims to abhor idolatry (even while bowing down towards Mecca five times a day) yet is itself engaged in the perpetual pursuit of earthly possessions and pleasures, as commanded by the “prophet” Mohammed. Hypocrisy evidently isn’t hypocritical when it’s done in the name of the all-knowing (except-for-science-and-history) “Allah” …

Al Rod Al Anf, Volume 2, Page 182: “You see [our god Allah] will soon make you inherit their land, their treasures and make you sleep with their women.” – The “prophet” Mohammed

Revelation 9:21, “And they did not repent of their murders or their sorceries [“φαρμακεία” – idolatry] or their sexual immorality or their thefts.”

By Daniel Greenfield, FrontPage Mag – “While ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who has proclaimed an Islamic State, was telling Muslims they had to obey him, he showed off some of the loot that his followers could expect to pick up along the way.

The Islamic State leader spoke publicly for the first time at Mosul’s Great Mosque of Friday, an intervention in which he called on the world’s Muslims to “obey” him as “the leader who presides over you”.
But the self-anointed ‘Caliph Ibrahim’ also brought a touch of branding into the bloody conflict, with many who have seen the 20-minute sermon commenting on his bulky and expensive wristwatch.

Appearing in black robes and a turban in an attempt to evoke memories of the last Caliphs to rule from Baghdad, the jihadist broke with the tradition to sport an ill-fitting chrome watch with a dark face.

His choice of accessory, which is believed to be either a Rolex, Sekonda or £3,500 Omega seamaster…

Some are calling this a misstep, but looting was the core of Mohammed’s conquests. His followers weren’t all that devout, they were looking for stuff to steal. That is why many of Mohammed’s original targets, including the Jews, were well off.

Like most thieves, Mohammed went where the money was.

“Allah made booty lawful and good. He used it to incite the Muslims to unity of purpose. So enjoy what you have captured.

Ishaq:327

“Allah saw what was in their hearts [what they coveted] so he rewarded them with victory and with as much spoil as they could take. Allah promised that they would soon capture a great deal of booty.”

Ishaq:503

Allah taught them how to divide the spoil. He made it lawful and said, ‘A fifth of the booty belongs to the Apostle. (Mohammed)’

Ishaq:324

On the Badr expedition, the Messenger took the sword of Dhu al-Faqar as booty. It had belonged to Munabbih. On that day he also took Abu Jahl’s camel as booty. It was a Mahri dromedary on which he used to go on raids. It is said that he wrote ‘Ma’aqil’ [Blood-Money] on his sword.”

Religion was a means for Mohammed to rob people. It’s not that different from what Al-Bagdadi is doing. The ‘spiritual’ aspect of martyrdom simply promised those of the Mohammedan bandits who died in the process of robbing people that they would enjoy the spoils of victory, e.g. food, women, wealth, in Islamic paradise.

Islam, as I have said before, is innately a gang religion. Its faith is in its ability to steal from others.” Read more.

ISIS Threatens New Holocaust Against Jews, Supporters Call For Group To Open New Front Against Israel

07/07/2014 2 comments

And if the Islamists who reside all throughout the nations surrounding Israel today are any indication, ISIS will have plenty of help. For peaceful purposes, literally

Joel 3:11-12, “Hasten and come, all you surrounding nations [H1471 gowy, “peoples” or figuratively “swarm of locusts”], and gather yourselves there. Bring down, O LORD, Your mighty ones. Let the nations be aroused And come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat, For there I will sit to judge All the surrounding nations.”

By John Rossomando, IPT – “A Twitter post Thursday by supporters of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), now calling itself the Islamic State (IS), has promised a Holocaust against the Jews.

‘The Real Zionist Holocaust is Predicted in the Hadiths! The Hour [resurrection] will not take place until the Muslims fight the Jews and the Muslims kill them, and the tree will say: ‘Oh, Muslim, servant of God, there is a Jew behind me, kill him! THE PROMISED Holocaust,’ the terrorist group’s Islamic State Media a graphic posted on its @ISIS_Conquests’s Twitter account said.

This hadith has proven popular with Islamic extremists of all stripes, ranging from IS to Hamas – and even on television in the Middle East.

Daniel Pipes, an expert on jihadism, said the hadith likely was a recruitment tool.

‘​Yes, ​calling for a holocaust against Jews refers to a violently anti-Semitic strain among jihadis and will surely appeal to some of them,’ Pipes said in an email to the Investigative Project on Terrorism.

Anti-Semitic propaganda has played an important role in the terrorist group’s recruitment effort. Its leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, placed Jews on the side of evil in a speech posted Tuesday on the Internet in which he called on Muslims to join him.

‘O ummah of Islam, the world today has been divided into two camps and two trenches … The camp of Islam and faith, and the camp of kufr (disbelief) and hypocrisy … all being led by America and Russia, and being mobilized by the Jews,’ al-Baghdadi said.

In another such video released on Twitter, IS told jihadists to ‘Break the crosses and destroy the lin­eage of the grand­sons of mon­keys.’

Some jihadist supporters are calling on the group to open a new front against Israel.” Read more.

For The Third Time: Palestinians Fly Nazi Flag Over Main Highway

07/07/2014 Leave a comment

After all, Muslims often express their love of Hitler and hope to one day finish the job he started …

Hadith, Tabari 7:97, “The morning after the murder of Ashraf, the Prophet declared, ‘Kill any Jew who falls under your power.’”

By Ari Soffer, INN – “For at least the third time in recent months, Arab residents of Beit Umar have flown a Nazi flag over the village facing the main highway, angering Jewish residents.

The choice of timing is all the more appalling, coming less than a week after the bodies of three Israeli teens were discovered in Hevron.

Beit Umar itself is located between Hevron and Jewish town of Alon Shvut in the Gush Etzion region – it was outside Alon Shvut that the boys were abducted by their killers as they were on their way home. It lies just north of the Arab village of Halhoul, where the murdered teens’ bodies were discovered last Tuesday by security forces.

The video was filmed on Sunday, and the flag appears to have been flown to coincide with countrywide riots by Arab extremists over the murder of Arab teen Mohammed Abu-Khder, who was killed in a suspected ‘revenge attack’ for the murder of Eyal Yifrah, Gilad Sha’ar and Naftali Frenkel.

The riots began in Jerusalem, where police and local Jewish residents were targeted with violence by Arabs, and has since spread to other parts of the country. The violence peaked over the weekend, after Abu-Khder’s burial on Friday, and has since abated slightly, with officials vowing tough measures against Israeli Arabs who participate in the violence.” Read more.

The Land Of Unwalled Villages – How Can Ezekiel 38 Be Fulfilled In The Near-Term?

07/04/2014 5 comments

Many MidnightWatcher visitors are already familiar with my perspective of Gog-Magog, but there are other views. Here is Brother Jack Smith’s interpretation, author of “Islam: The Cloak of Antichrist” …

By Jack Smith
When the Pieces Fit …

Ezekiel 38 is to Bible prophecy what Christ is to Christianity. Without it’s conditions satisfied, the end cannot be near.  Ezekiel 38 prophesies of a “Gog” (interpreted by yours truly to be Russia) who will lead an alliance of nations/groups (which includes Iran, Ezekiel 38:5-6 NASB) to attack Israel in the end-times. Some interpreters (myself included) see Israel as initially overrun; but in the end, Gog is “turned around” (Ezekiel 38:4) and ultimately defeated, along with his alliance. Gog and his alliance are destroyed by God through a great earthquake (Ezekiel 38:19-20) which leads to Gog and his forces turning their swords against one another. Ezekiel 38:21-22.

For most students of Bible prophecy, the fulfillment of Ezekiel 38 in the modern-day seems imminent — even without the recent declaration by Sunni Salafi-jihadist al-Bagdadi of his establishment of the Islamic caliphate. (Not since 1924 has Islam been united under one leader (“caliph” or “sultan”) and one Muslim community. In 1924, Kemal Ataturk, president of Turkey and the sultan of the languishing Ottoman Empire renounced the sultanate and disbanded the Islamic empire in favor of a secular state. (Read more.) One example of the imminence of the tribulation is recent international pressure placed upon Israel to negotiate with the Palestinians in the formation of a two-state solution. At times in the peace process, it appeared as if the entire world was aligned against the Israelis, a condition bringing to mind several end-time prophecies about Israel: Zechariah 14:2Zechariah 13:8-9Revelation 11:2.

Yet, in spite of the seeming immanence of the tribulation, there is a major impediment to the fulfillment of Ezekiel 38 in the modern-day Read more…

Lebanon: Islamist Group Vows To “Cleanse” The Land Of Churches

07/03/2014 3 comments

For peaceful purposes. Because we all know how much bloodshed and strife all those churches are causing …

By Robert Spencer, Jihad Watch – “The reference to silencing church bells may mean that they’re willing to settle for churches remaining in Lebanon as long as the Lebanese Christians accept dhimmi status and submit to Muslim overlordship, as the prohibition on church bells is part of Islamic law for dhimmi Christians: ‘Such non-Muslim subjects [of the Islamic state] are obliged to comply with Islamic rules that pertain to the safety and indemnity of life, reputation, and property. In addition, they…are forbidden to openly display wine or pork, (A: to ring church bells or display crosses,) recite the Torah or Evangel aloud, or make public display of their funerals and feastdays…’ — ‘Umdat al-Salik o11.5

‘Free Sunnis of Baalbek Brigade Vows to Silence Church Bells in Bekaa,’ Naharnet, July 2, 2014 (thanks to Jerk Chicken):

The vague group known as the Free Sunnis of Baalbek Brigade vowed to task gunmen to attack churches in Lebanon and in the eastern Bekaa valley in particular.

The Brigade announced on its twitter account that a “specialized group of free jihadists were tasked with cleansing the Islamic state of Bekaa in particular and in Lebanon in general from the churches.”

“We will target crusaders in the state and in Lebanon to silence the ringing of the bells,” the group said.

The Brigade recently pledged allegiance to the Islamic State, previously known as the Islamic State of the Iraq and the Levant.

The Islamic State declared over the weekend the establishment of the “Islamic caliphate” led by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, ordering ordered Muslims worldwide to pledge allegiance to their chief, in a spectacular bid to extend their authority.

A “caliphate” is an Islamic form of government last seen under the Ottoman Empire.

The mysterious Free Sunnis of Baalbek Brigade had in the past claimed that it is an affiliate of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, but the ISIL later denied that.

On March 16, the Brigade engaged in a war of words with the al-Nusra Front in Lebanon, believed to be a local franchise of the Syria-based, Qaida-linked al-Nusra Front.

The dispute erupted after both groups claimed responsibility on Twitter for a deadly suicide bombing that rocked the Bekaa town of al-Nabi Othman.

The Brigade has claimed responsibility for several rocket and bomb attacks inside Lebanon, the last of which were the suicide blasts in Dahr al-Baydar and Raouche’s Duroy Hotel.

Proverbs 8:7, “For my mouth will speak truth; wickedness is an abomination to my lips.”

Muslim apologists believe that they have the right to discuss and denounce the teachings of Christianity (teachings which, by the way, even the “prophet” of Islam himself couldn’t correctly define), but when we discuss the teachings of Islam they suddenly claim that we, as non-Muslims, have absolutely no right to criticize the “holy” Qur’an. But if Muslim apologists can criticize Christianity because of what the Qur’an teaches, then we can certainly criticize Islam in light of those very same teachings. If God has given us an ear to hear, then we listen. And if we’ve been given a sound mind to reason then we are obliged to speak the truth, even when those who are perishing refuse to believe it …

By Robert Spencer, Jihad Watch – “Years ago, I was speaking at some university — University of Wisconsin-Madison if I recall correctly — and a Muslim in the audience asked me what qualifications I had to discuss the texts and teachings of Islam. I responded, ‘I can read.’

And so I chuckled watching David Wood’s brilliant explanation here of why reading is ‘Islamophobic.’ Prove you’re not a racist today: put that Qur’an down! Ban reading!” Source – Jihad Watch.
