Note: In the spirit of fairness I must point out that although I am critical of Muslims who betray their non Muslim neighbours, it was not that long ago when Christians in Germany did the same thing with respect to their Jewish neighbours. Sadly, I fear, if given another opportunity, it would happen again; Civilization appears to have a very thin veneer.
It certainly appears that way for Tribal Members in the Middle East.
Recently, I was part of a small group which organized a Rally on Parliament Hill intended to support our Government in its efforts to stop the Killing, Raping and Pillaging going on throughout the Middle East and many parts of Africa.
The worst offender is the Barbarian Group known as ISIS.
During the course of the Rally, one of the clergy with strong ties to Mosul, Iraq told us that when ISIS invaded Mosul they had no idea where the Christians lived. They were soon identified by their hereto peaceful Muslim neighbours.
These neighbours painted signs on their Christian neighbours’ doors thereby conveniently identifying them for persecution at the hands of ISIS.
Mosul today is totally bereft of Christians despite the fact that Christians there dated back to the 1st Century A.D.
More recently, the Kurds fighting for their collective lives in Syria have seen this too. Invading ISIS has been helped by Muslim Neighbours marking Kurdish abodes for slaughter.
All this seems fly in the face of conventional wisdom that states the vast majority of Muslims abhor ISIS and their minions and that if only given a chance, they would come out and publicly say so.
But they certainly don’t appear to be doing so when given the chance in either Iraq or Syria.
So what are we to take from this?
I am not sure – especially as it relates to us here in the West.
One thing I do think we need to assess – and quickly – is whether major reductions are needed in the flow of Muslim immigration to our shores. Sad to say, but it appears that this will be necessary until peace is restored in these war torn parts of the world
And that peace will only come when the Muslim Majorities demand it.
As I see it…
