My Gazette: Christian Persecution, Part I

"Freedom of religion, say the opponents of freedom of religion, does not include the right to freely practice one's religion. That right is restricted to only the social left."

By Rich Kozlovich

Let's start with this fundamental reality.  Islam isn't a religion. It's a political criminal movement masquerading as a religion.  Once we're willing accept that then everything else falls into place.  Then  we're ready to take a position the actions of Islam show it's also a terrorist movement that needs to be officially listed as a Foreign Terrorist Organization. 

Freedom of religion is strangely selective by the left, and the same is true of freedom of speech. How dare anyone present factual opposition to insane leftist thinking?   In their demented minds any opposition to their positions clearly justifies censorship, and more importantly, they insist those who do so deserve to be punished! 
 
As for the Second Amendment, imagine what it would be like if all these honest citizens make their living honestly instead of mugging people ended up arming themselves against armed criminals? Well, that's clearly racist, xenophobic, and Islamophobic.  Imagine that, now who could find fault with that kind of logic?  Right? 

We're facing a total disintegration of western civilization, and it's being caused by a merging to the two most vile destructive movements mankind has ever faced.  Islam and Socialism.   Let's understand this. The civilized world is in a two fold war.  A religious as well as a civil war, and please understand this foundational logic.  Those attacked don't get do decide if there's a war or not.  That decision was already made for them.   And this Israel/Hamas War has caused an expansion of radicalism all over the world, including, India, Indonesia and Pakistan, and last two are Muslim dominated nations.   
 
Once you turn the monsters loose on society, it's not so easy to cage them again.   A lesson Mao learned when he turned China's students loose against the people of China during what's called the Cultural Revolution.  They turned into monsters, and they found they liked being monsters, and he found he had a problem.  And now western civilization is facing their home grown monsters.  
 
 Let's start out with these incontrovertible facts:
Dr. Carol M. Swain, who has become a national figure over the corruption of academia and the plagiarism scandal of Harvard University's president, Claudine Gay, in 2015 shared her views of Islam in America after the Charlie Hebdo shooting saying:
 
"Islam is not like other religions in the United States… it poses an absolute danger to us and our children unless it is monitored. .......... If America is to be safe, it must… institute serious monitoring of Islamic organizations." 
 
This is an organized and dedicated globalist agenda against Christianity by these two vile movements.  Why?  Because Christians refuse to recognize or accept the idea government as the ultimate authority in their lives, something both Teddy Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson promoted.  Christians have a serious degree of self-governing morality that is in conflict with the insatiably western government are promoting.  As a result, what were seeing is Christian persecution in a first-world country:

When God tells you what to do you cannot hesitate. – “Vampiro,” played by Bill Camp, in the Movie “Sound of FreedomThe power of these 10 words threatens the most powerful individuals and institutions on the planet, and what might otherwise be their total control over governments. These words express a principle that an authoritarian government cannot tolerate. They proclaim “Government is not the ultimate sovereign. God is the ultimate sovereign. And if you challenge my God and make me choose, I will obey God, and I will defy you.”

There’s plenty out there to defy these days. One big piece at a time, the whole world is coming under the control of fewer and fewer people. That is inherently suspect, but their avowed and allegedly benign objectives make matters far worse...........

‘A Very Terrifying Christmas’ Nigerian Gunmen Kill at Least 140 in ‘Christian-Dominated’ Regions - Breitbart News At least 140 people were killed by gunmen who attacked remote villages over two days in north-central Nigeria’s Plateau state, survivors and officials said Tuesday in the latest of such mass killings this year blamed on the West African nation’s farmer-herder crisis.  The assailants targeted 17 communities during the “senseless and unprovoked” attacks on Saturday and Sunday, during which most houses in the areas were burned down, Plateau Gov. Caleb Mutfwang said Tuesday in a broadcast on the local Channels Television.....

 At Least 160 Christian Farmers Killed, 300 Wounded in Coordinated Attacks Across 20 Villages in Nigeria by Muslims on Christmas Day Weekend - Jim Hᴏft In a devastating outbreak of violence, at least 160 Christians were targeted and killed during what has been described as a “very terrifying Christmas” in north-central Nigeria’s Plateau state. The affected area has seen a surge of violence over the Christmas Eve weekend, resulting in a death toll that has shocked communities and the nation at large. Gunmen launched coordinated assaults in not fewer than 20 villages on the eve of December 24th, carrying out attacks that continued unabated into the following day, The Guardian reported. The suspected attacker, nomadic herders, killed at least 140 people using guns and machetes. According to Punch Newspaper, over 10,000 people were displaced by the attacks.....

My Take - If there was any question as to the anti-Christian ethic in this administration this next piece should dispel all doubt.

 Biden takes Nigeria off the religious concerns list, 150 Christians massacred on Christmas Eve December 27, 2023  By Monica Showalter - Anybody notice how many Nigerian Christians got slaughtered on Christmas Eve by Muslim terrorists this year? According to Fox News: Nomadic herders in Nigeria killed at least 140 people during a Christmas Eve rampage through 15 villages, according to media reports......That 'nomadic herder' tripe from Fox is like calling Somali pirates 'local fishermen' or Gaza terrorists 'Palestinian civilians.'....... Which brings us to President "Devout Catholic" Joe Biden: What's he doing about this? About what you'd expect, he's making it easier for the killers to kill and kill again.........Seems the persecution of Christians turns the old puppet's shriveled heart to stone....

ASIA 

Christians in Northern India Forgo Celebrations After ‘Record’ Year of Persecution - Frances Martel The Hindu nationalist government of India presided over the escalation of Christian persecution in the country at a “record pace” in 2023, religious freedom experts told Breitbart News, and faces little to no pressure to protect their Christian populations from the West. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has repeatedly claimed in public — including on the lawn of the White House in June — that India is not a hotbed of persecution or violence against religious minorities............

India Joins List of Concerns for Religious Freedom Advocates - John Hayward The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) warned in its annual report that religious freedom deteriorated around the world in 2023, a net loss driven by increasingly vicious crackdowns from theocracies like Iran and authoritarian regimes like China and Cuba.  USCIRF wants to add India as a “country of particular concern,” a politically difficult move because India is such an important strategic ally.................

Exclusive – In China, Celebrating Christmas Could Hurt Your Social Credit Score - Frances Martel The sizable Christian population of China — including members of both “legal” Communist Party-controlled churches and illicit “house churches” seeking a private prayer space — faces significant persecution if found to be “too enthusiastic” in celebrating Christmas, David Curry, the president and CEO of Global Christian Relief, told Breitbart News in a recent conversation.

EUROPE

Punishment demanded for calling a guy a 'bloke' 'Complete rebellion against God's word - By Bob Unruh - December 25, 2023 -  The Church of England, which long has been caught up in the extremism of promoting the LGBT ideology, especially transgenderism, has decided to reopen an investigation into a clergyman, now no longer with the church, for calling a man a "bloke" during a video blog.  The revelation comes from Christian Concern, which explained the background: that Rev. Brett Murphy, 38, was targeted by multiple complaints, called Clergy Disciplinary Measures, because of his perspective as a Christian Orthodox Anglican.........Murphy already has left the Church of England to work with the Free Church of England, o.........the Church of England "continues" to pursue him "to silence, intimidate and force Anglican priests out" if they do not affirm the leftist social agenda......

Italy: Pro-Hamas demonstrators disrupt Christmas mass, ‘Christmas is canceled’ By Totalitarians will brook no dissent, or even any attention paid to anything other than their own obsessions. “Bolzano: Activists disrupt Christmas service,” translated “Bozen: Aktivisten stören Weihnachtsgottesdienst,” Unser Tirol, December 25, 2023 (thanks to Medforth): On Christmas Day, Bishop Ivo Muser celebrated the Christmas service with believers in Bolzano Cathedral. Before the sermon, however, there […]

Italy: Primary school substitutes ‘cuckoo’ for ‘Jesus’ in Christmas carol to avoid offending Muslims   By The story says it was done to accommodate the feelings of non-Christian children, and Muslims are the largest group of non-Christians around. Agna isn’t filled with Buddhists. “Italian primary school / Christmas party: ‘Jesus’ is exchanged for ‘cuckoo,’” translated from “Italienische Grundschule / Weihnachtsfeier: „Jesus“ wird mit „Kuckuck“ ausgetauscht,” Unser Tirol, December 23, 2023 (thanks […]

Four Islamists linked to a terror cell were arrested by Austrian authorities this week..........Several suspected Islamist terrorists have been arrested after their plans to attack the Cologne Cathedral were uncovered.  It’s was in front of the same cathedral that hundreds of German women were sexually assaulted by migrants on New Year’s Eve 2015.

Jihad Terror Attack Thwarted in France Days Before Christmas: Five Arrested for Islamic Attack Plot Amy Mek December 23, 2023 -  Amidst rising geopolitical tensions and just before Christmas, the fast arrest of Jihad suspects under surveillance raises questions: Was it a preemptive move against an Islamic attack, or a response to an immediate threat? Just days before Christmas, a significant anti-terrorist operation in France led to the arrest of five individuals, averting a potential Islamic terror attack. Conducted by the National Anti-Terrorist Prosecutor’s Office (PNAT) across Meurthe-et-Moselle, this timely intervention showcases the ongoing efforts of French authorities to ensure public safety during a season of heightened alert. Amidst rising global tensions, and with Christmas just days away, this operation stands as a critical juncture in the ongoing fight against Islamic terrorism.

Red Jihad: Berlin Police Raid Showcases Communist-Muslim Alliance to Destroy Western Civilization - December 22, 2023 - According to Deutsche Welle (DW), Germany’s international broadcaster, police in Berlin, the capital of Germany, conducted a raid on Wednesday targeting members of Zora, a pro-Palestinian, left-wing feminist group. Zora describes itself on the internet as a ‘young women’s organization’ that is ‘anti-capitalist, internationalist, anti-fascist.’ Zora is accused of supporting the radical, left-wing Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), which is listed as a terrorist organization by the European Union and the United States. The raids are part of an investigation into allegations that Zora members were using emblems of the PFLP, designated as a terrorist organization by Israel, the EU, and the US............
Islamized Spain: Major Counter-Terrorism Operation in Melilla: Nine Jihadists Arrested - December 23, 2023 - In a major counter-terrorism operation, the National Police of Spain have detained nine jihadists in Melilla, a Spanish autonomous city in North Africa.

MIDDLE EAST 

Israel’s Christian Population Soars… Fleeing Persecution in Middle East - Simon Kent Israel’s Christian population is continuing to soar ever higher as persecution builds elsewhere in the Middle East, year-end figures from the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) reveal.

Why Are City Officials Squashing Christian Ministries? - Alex McFarland  Aug 27, 2023 - LGBTQ+ radicals unsurprisingly have found another target — a cherished American institution in the famed resort town of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. City leaders of Myrtle Beach and its long-time religious community must face down the ultimatum against a local Christian ministry.  The “problem” is a local Christian ministry called Ground ZeroThis situation is worthy of notice for all Americans who care about the preservation of our Constitutional liberties. Regardless of your faith persuasion and whether or not you ever vacation in Myrtle Beach (as millions of Americans annually do), please know that a significant struggle is taking place...........

It was all a HOAX: Over 80 Canadian Christian Churches burned down over a two-year media lie - Was this story fact-checked before the media incited arsonists and unleashed them on churches? Absolutely not. After all, liberal democracy prioritizes emotion and violence over facts. Now, however, we know the entire two-year saga was a massive hoax thanks to two major excavations that found no evidence of buried children. The sad truth is that crazed left-wing animals torched at least 81 Christian churches, all based on a left-wing media lie. Meanwhile, the government, led by Trudeau, gave their seal of approval for these arsons by sitting back and watching it all unfold without doing anything to stop it..............

Massachusetts couple denied foster care eligibility because they are believing Catholics By Thomas Lifson  August 16, 2023 -  When I first moved to Massachusetts in 1969 from Protestant-dominated Minnesota, I was struck by the awesome power the Catholic church wielded there.  Reverent media attention was afforded the Cardinal, the legendary Richard Cardinal Cushing, who died in 1970 and was replaced by Humberto Cardinal Medeiros. The funeral and selection of a replacement was a major media event in the Boston area. I had never seen the like of it in the Great Plains. There was more than a tinge of class resentment against the formerly dominant Yankees, who were Protestants. Things have changed in 2023, and it appears that in place of the Roman Catholic faith, a different religion has achieved dominance: the creed of LGBTQWERTY.  The formerly reigning Catholic faith is now considered anathema by at least some official state agencies. How else to understand this from the Wall Street Journal?..........

Woke leftists object to Catholic school LGBT policy - August 26, 2023 By Robert Arvay - Woke leftists are outraged that a Catholic school district has enacted policies contrary to the teachings of the Church of Wokeness. Catholic school officials have the unmitigated audacity, the gall, to insist that Catholic schools teach their students according to Catholic religious doctrine.  How dare they impose their values on the people who are imposing their values on us? Freedom of religion, say the opponents of freedom of religion, does not include the right to freely practice one's religion. That right is restricted to only the social left...........

Religious persecution in a first-world country - By Greg Maresca August 17, 2023 -  In February, an FBI whistleblower from their Richmond, Virginia field office leaked a report about spying on "radical-traditionalist Catholics," labeling them as "potential domestic terrorists." FBI director Christopher Wray claimed the report was "a single product by a single field office." Hearings conducted by chairman of the House Judiciary Committee Rep. Jim Jordan revealed evidence that Wray had perjured himself, as FBI field offices in Los Angeles and Portland and perhaps others were also monitoring Catholics. Perhaps this is why the FBI is too busy to investigate the Richmond riots orchestrated by Antifa in 2020 or those BLM-led riots and their $90 million in donations that vaporized into luxury real estate for their leaders.............

Senators to FBI: Quit hiding details about your anti-Catholic ideology - Demand 'immediate explanation' of 'potentially misleading testimony before Congress' - By WND Staff August 28, 2023 -  Only days after an analysis at The Federalist revealed the FBI created an anti-Catholic memo that accused church faithful of being domestic terrorists because the "Washington regime" has no tolerance for those opposing its "pagan morality," a U.S. senator is fed up with the bureau's refusal to provide information.   It was John Daniel Davidson at The Federalist who explained the FBI claimed the memo against Catholics came from one office, but that wasn't true, as officials in Richmond, Virginia, Los Angeles and Portland all contributed.

  • A New Generation of Catholics Discovers Latin Mass 60 Years After Vatican II  -  Salena Zito  |  Dec 26, 2023 - Growing up in a rural enclave in western Pennsylvania, Gina McNulty regularly attended Catholic Mass with her family each Sunday. But something always felt missing about the experience, McNulty said — something she could not put her finger on until a few years ago when she and her husband, Steven, began attending a traditional Latin Mass at the Most Precious Blood of Jesus parish a 20-minute drive away in Pittsburgh......

 Hamas Supporters Declare War on Christmas By “How many of y’all would come out on Christmas Day and ruin their Christmas?” “Joy is canceled,” read the signs wielded by Hamas supporters protesting a Christmas tree lighting at Columbia University. While a student group tried to sing, the terror backers shrieked, “there’s no room for celebration.” And no room for anything except terrorism […]

AOC Portrays Jesus Christ as Palestinian Victim of Israeli Occupation  - Joel B. Pollak Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) posted on Christmas Eve that the story the birth of Jesus Christ paralleled the plight of Palestinians today, inverting the facts about both Jesus and contemporary Israel. Ocasio-Cortez wrote on Instagram that “Christ was born in modern-day Palestine” as “part of a targeted population indiscriminately killed to protect an unjust leader’s power.” She added: “Thousands of years later, right-wing forces are violently occupying Bethlehem as similar stories unfold for today’s Palestinians.”............(My Take: Instinctively,  when I see the unendingly idiotic things this nitwit says I wonder if she's the brightest pebble in the brook in her district.  If that's so, and I think it is, then they must be amongst the dumbest people in New York.  Except, dumb seems to be pandemic throughout New York.

‘Christmas Is Canceled’ Pro-Palestinian Protesters Riot in New York, Block O’Hare in Chicago - Joel B. Pollak Pro-Palestinian protesters spent the weekend rioting, disrupting holiday travel, and targeting Christmas in general in an attempt to force Americans to listen to their concerns by causing them inconveniences, disturbing their holiday plans, and irritating them. In New York City on Monday, several hundred demonstrators carried a bloodied Nativity scene to Rockefeller Center. Some carried Islamic symbols.........

More anti-Semitism from Columbia U. - By Civis Americanus November 21, 2023 - Columbia University Apartheid Divest has issued a statement that reads:

  • "Columbia University Apartheid Divest is a coalition of student organizations that see Palestine as the vanguard for our collective liberation." Good, please have your female and LGBT members go over to Gaza and see just how "liberated" they are in that environment.
  • "Israel is bombing hospitals, schools, and homes while cutting off food, water, medicine, and electricity to the more than two million Palestinians in Gaza, half of whom are children." Hospitals, schools, and homes lose their protected status under the Geneva and Hague Conventions when used for military purposes. This means that Apartheid Divest is intentionally trying to obfuscate Hamas' war crimes.
  • "We have previously refused to focus on concerns pertaining to free speech, academic freedom, and student safety on campus, as they distract from Israel’s actively committing genocide and ethnic cleansing." This is an application of Joseph Goebbels' advice to accuse the other side of that which your own side is guilty, as the only genocide was the one attempted by Hamas on October 7.
Here is the list of student organizations that signed this material. Although the names of the student officers are not available, those of the faculty advisors are. If those advisors are not comfortable with the content of this letter, they are free to distance themselves from the organizations in question........

Nicaraguans Face a Dark Christmas of Communist Repression as War on Christians Continues - Christian K. Caruzo Millions of Nicaraguans will spend Christmas under the growing repression of communist dictator Daniel Ortega, who has arrested and banished members of the Catholic Church, prohibited Catholic festivities, and intimidated Christians into silence. Nicaraguans are a majority Catholic people. Out of the country’s roughly 6.35 million citizens, 50 percent identify as Roman Catholic and 33.2 percent identify as Evangelical Christian.

 Nicaragua Detains Catholic Priests for Praying for Political Prisoner Bishop - John Hayward Nicaraguan police on Thursday detained two senior Catholic priests for the “crime” of praying in public for Bishop Rolando Alvarez, a critic of socialist dictator Daniel Ortega, who in February was sentenced to 26 years in prison for “treason.”Local media identified the detained priests as Monsignor Carlos Aviles, vicar general of the Diocese of Managua, and Father Hector Treminio, treasurer for the diocese. Their identities were confirmed in a report by Vatican News, which said they were the fifth and sixth priests to be arrested by the Ortega regime in the past week. The Nicaraguan government did not respond to foreign media requests for comment on the arrests.......

Brief: University Catholic Service Bombing Raises Fears of Abu Sayyaf Resurgence in the Philippines - By: Abu Sayyaf is considered a group in “demise” according to leading Philippine military officials (Benar News, July 31). The killing of key commander Mudzrimar “Mundi” Sawadjaan on his way to Sulu island from Basilan Province in early December only furthered this government narrative (SunStar, December 3). As one of the highest-ranking Abu Sayyaf commanders still at large and the mastermind of numerous major bombings, his elimination should be expected to reduce the risk of Abu Sayyaf attacks going forward......... Nevertheless, the December 5 bombing of a Catholic church service at Mindanao State University, which killed four worshippers, is an actual success for Abu Sayyaf, and may overshadow its other struggles and the loss of Sawadjaan (ABS-CBN, December 5)....

What I've listed here is the tip of the iceberg, and it's going to get worse as the Muslim population soars in western civilization.   Islamic demands and violence will increase and at some point, the world's western populations will explode into violence.  

What happening in Israel is the wake up call.  What's happening in Ireland, France, and Germany will become far more pronounced, and if the governments of these nations continue to harass their citizens in favor of these Muslim immigrants, there will be a serious political backlash.

Make no mistake about this.  In each these nation there is another Hitler or Mussolini just waiting in the wings who will emerge and unify Europe's population against immigration and Islam.   All it will take is a massive economic downturn, and that's coming, and will be the demise of the E.U., and the leftist economic and social insanity that's destroying Europe. 

The difference is these new nationalists are not going to be interested in conquering the world, they're only going to be interested in saving their nations from Islamic destruction.
