Discrimination and Persecution of Christians Ongoing


Palestinian Authority: On April 25, "the terrified residents of the Christian village of Jifna near Ramallah," states a report, "were attacked by Muslim gunmen ... after a woman from the village submitted a complaint to the police that the son of a prominent, Fatah-affiliated leader had attacked her family. In response, dozens of Fatah gunmen came to the village, fired hundreds of bullets in the air, threw petrol bombs while shouting curses, and caused severe damage to public property. It was a miracle that there were no dead or wounded." 

The "rioters," the report continues, "called on the [Christian] residents to pay jizya—a head tax that was levied throughout history on non-Muslim minorities under Islamic rule. The most recent victims of the jizya were the Christian communities of Iraq and Syria under ISIS rule." Moreover, as often happens when Muslims attack Christians in Islamic nations, "Despite the [Christian] residents' cries for help ... the PA police did not intervene during the hours of mayhem. They have not arrested any suspects."

Where is the outcry against this ongoing persecution, in Uganda, in Nigeria, in Germany, in the UK, in India, in Indonesia, etc., etc See more detail on this here
