MidnightWatcher – Prophecy in Motion

For peaceful purposes …

Qur’an Sura 33:57, 61, “Lo! those who malign Allah and His messenger, Allah hath cursed them in this world and the Hereafter, and hath prepared for them the doom of the disdained … Accursed, they will be seized wherever found and slain with a (fierce) slaughter.”

And Yours, Too

By Vasudevan Sridharan, International Business Times – “A Christian couple have been sentenced to death for allegedly sending blasphemous text messages about Muhammad, the prophet of Islam.

Shafqat Maseeh, 38, who works as a watchman in the Saint Cathedral School in Gojra, and his wife Shagufta Maseeh, 42, were arrested in July last year, following a complaint by shopkeeper Malik Mohammad Hussain and local authority Anwar Mansoor Goraya.

The additional district and sessions court judge Amer Habib pronounced the verdict in the district jail, where the case was heard.

Apart from the death sentence, each of the accused has also been ordered to pay a penalty of 100,000 Pakistani Rupees (£615).

Lawyers representing the couple and rights groups have argued that the duo were not involved in sending the blasphemous messages and accused the complainants of malpractice.

‘They [complainants Hussain and Goraya] were reading verses from the Koran. They also said that if the court wouldn’t sentence them to death, they would make sure they would be killed the same way as other opponents of the blasphemy legislation,’ said Farrukh Said, the executive director of the Pakistan-based World Vision in Progress, according to local news.

The latest ruling has come within days of a similar sentence in which another Christian was given the death penalty under blasphemy charges.” Read more.

George Masih told Morning Star News that his father, 58-year-old Boota Masih, worked as a gold scavenger in Karachi’s Liaquatabad Gold Market for 30 years, and that the Muslim who killed him also gathered gold dust from jewellers’ rugs or work carpets at the market.” Read more.

Flashback: Pakistan: Dozens Of Christian Families Flee Village After Pastor Accused Of ‘Blasphemy’ Against Mohammed – “Dozens of Christian families have fled from their homes in a village near Lahore after a pastor was accused of blasphemy against the Prophet Muhammad. In a discussion with a Muslim man on August 24, Pastor Sattar Masih, 37, was accused of saying that Muhammad was a brutal man who killed innocent people. Masih denies the accusations, saying he said nothing derogatory about Islam or the Prophet. The pastor was beckoned before Islamic clerics to plead his case.” Read more.

Flashback: Pakistani Woman Charged With Blaspheming Mohammed For Refusing To Convert To Islam – “A young mother has been falsely accused of ‘blaspheming’ Muhammad, the prophet of Islam, because she rebuffed attempts by relatives who had converted to Islam to force her to renounce her Christian faith, family members said. Police in Khichiwala, Bahawalnagar district, in Punjab Province, charged 26-year-old Shamim Bibi, mother of a 5-month-old girl … Speaking ill of Muhammad in Pakistan is punishable by life imprisonment or death under Pakistan’s internationally condemned blasphemy laws.” Read more.

Qur’an Sura 9:29-30, “Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day … nor acknowledge the religion of [Islam], even if they are of the People of the Book … the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them …”

Christian Post – “According to Dr. Ashraf Ramelah, founder and president of Voice of the Copts, a human rights nonprofit organization, Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood (MB) ‘may be officially and legally designated a terrorist organization and lawfully hunted down, but as of yet the MB is busy with business as usual in Cairo…

He said that on Friday afternoon, March 28, the entrance of Virgin and Archangel Michael Coptic Church in the Cairo suburb of Ein-Shams filled with bloodshed when Muslims returning from noon prayer in the mosque headed to the church to cause trouble.

‘As a consequence, 18 people were rushed to hospitals in the Egyptian capitol. Five are now dead,’ he said. ‘An eyewitness who contacted the office of Voice of the Copts said he saw unarmed citizens trying to prevent an attack upon the church by confronting a mob in the street armed with iron sticks, wooden clubs, swords, knives, and guns. According to the Al Fagar report, Priest Yohanna Fouad contacted law enforcement and the fire department which responded promptly.’ …

Ramelah said that twenty-five year-old Mary George was wearing a cross and not a head scarf (hijab). Witnesses say she was killed for that reason alone, a sign of her faith. Miada Ashraf, a 21 year-old journalist and reporter on the scene for Al Destor newspaper was killed by gunshot to the head. In earlier attempts to sway the media away from accurate reporting, Miada was twice kidnapped by the MB and released both times after mediation by authorities…

He went on to say, ‘As always, condemnation by international bodies of such terrorist acts is non-existent. Shall we regard silence as respect for Egypt’s sovereignty, and, if so, how shall we view the recent international cries of concern for Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood members receiving guilty verdicts and death sentences? ‘Unfairness’ for Muslim Brotherhood’s ‘statesmen’ and street thugs prompted international objections and questions about Egypt’s justice system.

‘Leaders speaking out against ‘unjust’ treatment of the Muslim Brotherhood are joined by a vocal grassroots around the world attached to Islamist views.'” Read more.

Flashback: Egyptians Sign Petition Asking Obama To Designate His Muslim Brotherhood Friends As ‘Terrorists’ – “A WhiteHouse.gov petition asking President Obama to declare the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization will far exceed the minimum number of signatures required to prompt an official response when it closes Tuesday. The catch? Many of the 174,000-plus signatures appear to come from Egyptians, not Americans… Notably, while the WhiteHouse.gov petition platform ‘We the People’ bills itself as a site for Americans, it doesn’t actually require that petitioners be U.S. citizens. That has made it a popular destination for foreign causes, though the Obama administration rarely takes action in response to such petitions.” Read more.

Flashback: Egyptian Activist To Obama: Leave Us Alone, The Terrorists You Support Are The Ones Asking Allah To Destroy The United States – “Dear Mr. Obama, I’m talking to you today on behalf of a lot of Egyptians who wants to deliver a message, not only for you, [but] for all the American citizens: leave us alone. All the families in Egypt want to tell you this message: leave Egypt alone, please Mr. Obama. And stop supporting the terrorists. Stop supporting the friends of Omar Abdel Rahman, the terrorist who killed lots of Americans. Stop supporting the allies of Ayman al-Zawahiri, of Pakistan, of [the] Taliban… These people, who Mr. Obama is supporting, are the people who are in their prayers asking [Allah] to destroy [the] United States.” Read more.

Because non-Muslims just “don’t understand what ethics are.” White is black, and black is white. Right is wrong, and wrong is right. Islam. It’s backwards in more ways than one …

By Dalit Halevy and Ari Yashar, INN – “A Canadian court held a trial Tuesday for Mohamed Hersi, a Somali-Canadian resident of Toronto, who was accused of trying to join the Al Qaeda-affiliated Somali terrorist group Al Shabab. The group was responsible for the deadlyWestgate Mall massacre in Nairobi last September.

Hersi was arrested in 2011 at Toronto’s Pearson airport while leaving Canada, reportedly to join the terror group, in the first case of a Canadian being arrested while on their way out of the country to take part in terrorist activities, according to the National Post.

Investigations of 28-year-old Hersi began in 2010, after dry cleanersdiscovered a SD card with instructions on how to make explosives in the pocket of clothes he brought in for cleaning. After the card was transferred to police, an undercover officer was assigned to Hersi, posing as a fellow terrorist hopeful.

Over the course of the years, the officer recorded numerous conversations with Hersi in which he expressed hatred towards the West, Canada, Christians, and ‘infidels’ in general, reports Shalom Toronto.

Hersi claimed in the recordings that any rule, even that of a tyrant, would be preferable to the ‘police state’ of Canada, in which non-Muslims ‘hate Islam,’ and Christians ‘don’t understand what ethics are.’

In one taped conversation, he confessed to avidly reading the Al Qaeda propaganda magazine Inspire, and noted that he particularly enjoyed an article attacking the West and giving permission to steal from non-Muslims…

‘I always picture (myself) as a type of, you know, like a silent assassin,’ said Hersi in one recorded conversation. ‘Some of those people deserve to, you know, get what they, what’s coming to them, you know. If you ever insult the prophet Allah, peace be upon him, you deserve a certain outcome, you know.'” Read more.

That’s more people than the number of military personnel on active duty in Australia, Canada, Germany, Poland and the UK combined …” Read more.

Almost, but not quite, because there is no joke to make about a medieval form of punishment like stoning. More importantly, why is it that in the 21st century people can free to spew such hateful material all in the name of religion? Alas, it might be more widely spread than Canadians would believe.” Read more.

Revelation 13:15, “And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain.”

By Michael Carl, WND – “The violent jihadist group aiming to put Nigeria under Islamic law is calling on its supporters to go to churches and kill Christians.

Boko Haram, in a video, also warns police to get out of the way because the group’s drive for Islamic law, or Shariah, will not be stopped.

Islam analyst Theodore Shoebat noted the jihadists sing an ominous song in the video that is ‘purely in accordance with Islamic tenets.’

They sing: ‘We are working for Allah and must bring Shariah to existence; we are committed to protecting Muslims from being annihilated by infidels. We are going to kill them. We will enter churches and slaughter Christians and barracks. We are calling on all Muslims to come out and fight jihad. If you joke, these infidels will annihilate Muslims. You see how they are killing our women and children.

In what analysts call one of Boko Haram’s most brazen video statements, the jihadists bragged that they’ve displayed their skill in northern Nigeria and against the ‘infidels’ in the northern Plateau and Kaduna states.

U.S. Nigeria Law Group managing partner and Nigeria analyst Emmanuel Ogebe said the video is possibly a ‘recruiting tool.’

‘The release of this video is probably a rallying call to embedded terrorists to deploy. Boko Haram is quite media savvy, and its main mode of communication is not conventional telecoms but videos,’ Ogebe said.

Ogebe added that the vocal tracks on the video are filled with invectives to incite Muslims to jihad.

‘The sound track of this video is laced with messages about attacks on Christians, even naming the states and location where they have ‘obliterated’ Christians and where they are going next,’ Ogebe said.” Read more.

And I’ll slaughter you again and again… I call on all my followers and brethren wherever you are, to rise and take up arms and start killing the vagabond.

Matthew 24:12, “And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.”

By Robert Spencer, Jihad Watch – “Islamic law forbids non-Muslims to hold authority over Muslims. This Muslim student was apparently enraged at the insolence of this Christian teacher, who should have known his place, daring to reprimand him. And so he exerted justice. The question now will be whether he will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law, even with Egypt’s present post-Muslim Brotherhood government, or whether Islamic supremacists sympathetic to his act will see to it that he gets off lightly.

‘MB Student shoot [sic] Coptic teacher in the head,’ by-Yousef El Bebawy for Copts United, April 2 (thanks to Maged):

A Coptic Christian teacher in Marzouk prep school in Minya was shot in the head by a student that belongs to the Muslim Brotherhood terrorist group. Eyewitnesses said that the student was caught smoking in the class and was reprimanded. Therefore, he decided to take revenge of this Coptic teacher and shot him in the head while he was returning home.

By Theodore Shoebat – “In a new video leaked from the Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram, Muslim fighters are found singing a jihadist song, the lyrics of which go as follows:

We are working for Allah and must bring Shariah to existence; we are committed to protecting Muslims from being annihilated by infidels. We are going to kill them. We will enter Churches and slaughter Christians and barracks. We are calling on all Muslims to come out and fight Jihad. If you joke, these infidels will annihilate Muslims. You see how they are killing our women and children.

For peaceful purposes, mind you. The prophecy of Isaiah 19, however, reveals a time that will be anything but peaceful …

Isaiah 19:2, “So I will incite Egyptians against Egyptians; and they will each fight against his brother and each against his neighbor, city against city and kingdom against kingdom.”

By Raymond Ibrahim, Islam Translated – “Among other forms of ‘retaliatory terrorism,’ some 80 Christian churches were attacked in Egypt immediately after the June 30 Revolution, which saw the ousting of Muslim Brotherhood president Morsi.

And now that Egypt has sentenced to death hundreds of Muslim Brotherhood supporters for the widespread terror they launched on the nation after the people’s revolution, the Brotherhood and its supporters are, once again, retaliating by attacking Coptic Christian minorities and their churches.

Yesterday, Friday — the day when Muslims meet for prayers, the day when their imams incite attacks on churches and other forms of terrorism — in Ain Shams, a suburb of Cairo, ‘Muslim protesters attacked a Coptic Orthodox Christian church on March 28. Four people were killed in the attack on the church, dedicated to the Virgin Mary and Archangel Michael. Among the dead are a 25-year-old journalist and a Coptic Christian worshipper. When Egyptian security forces intervened, violence spread throughout the surrounding neighborhood. Muslim radicals are frequently whipped up into frenzy by their religious leaders on Fridays when they gather for prayer.’

Among other things, the attackers set fire to parked cars and opened fire on the church itself.

According to eyewitnesses, Sameh Merry, a Coptic Christian woman, was ‘murdered by Muslim protesters when they noticed that she had a small cross dangling from the rear-view mirror of her car. Other witnesses claim that she was killed because she was in possession of a firearm. Coptic Orthodox Bishop Raphael expressed condolences over the deaths.’

It’s certainly plausible to believe this woman was specifically attacked because of her Christian cross.  Anecdotes of Christians being targeted and mistreated because of the cross are many and across the entire Islamic world (see pgs. 84-94 of Crucified Again).  Recent examples can be read here, here and here.” Source – Raymond Ibrahim.

Coptic Woman ‘Martyred For The Cross’ — ‘Body Torn’ – “On his Twitter account, Coptic Bishop Raphaeil, who also serves as Secretary of the Holy Synod of the Coptic Christian Church, just wrote: ‘Oh how lucky you are, Mary, you who are beloved of Christ. They tore your body because of the Cross. Yet they offered you the greatest service and gave you a name of honor as one who attained the crown of martyrdom.’ The bishop also quoted Christ in the Bible, ‘Yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers God service’ (John 16:2).” Read more.
