“It was quite ironic that the same people, who were members of the peace committee, also led mobs against Christians, one of them being a cleric Zubair from Madina Mosque, who called on local Muslims to unite and attack the church over accusations that the church had deliberately burnt papers containing Quranic verses, which were found on a nearby garbage heap on Tuesday morning,”
The old ~ they burnt up the Koran, they tore up the Koran ~ as a justification for attacks ~ a spate of recent church burnings in Ethiopia ~ use the same accusations ~ and the Pakistan massacre ~ were 8 Christians were burnt alive ~ when the Christians were accused ~ of ripping the Koran up and using it as confetti at a wedding ~ was led by an iman calling for the attacks against the Christian ~ calling for their deaths ~ from the mosque's minaret!
It is a repeat of Muhammad's actions. For example, the killing of 700 Jewish men in Mecca ~ [Muhammad took one of the best looking Jewish girls for himself] ~ fearing for their own lives the rest of the Meccan Jewish population ~ accepted Muhammad's 'peace' treaty ~ where the 'peace treaty' was the dhimmi status ~ the acceptance of the 2nd class status and the restriction of religious and other rights or freedoms ~~ were all curtailed ~ then ~ as now ~ in the Islamic world.
And this is how Muslims think the world should be ordered.
As you can see ~ here ~ following the attacks ~ the Lahore Christians took the dhimmi status, the loss of rights and restrictions on their religious practise. This is what 'protected' status means ~ the deal was struck so they would not be attacked.
Turkey was toying with the idea of re-introducing the Islamic jizya ~ as was collected in the Ottoman days ~ because Muslims understand that the jizya is a protection tax.
...have agreed to avoid doing so on a condition that the church authorities would suspend its activities, especially at the time when Muslims living in the area offer prayers.
It does demonstrate ~ further how out of control things have gotten in Pakistan. But what we call out of control ~ they call Islamic order.
Lahore, Mar 24 : Muslim clerics and hardliners, who tried to attack a church in Lahore's landmark Badami Bagh, have agreed to avoid doing so on a condition that the church authorities would suspend its activities, especially at the time when Muslims living in the area offer prayers.
The “peace deal” was reached through the efforts of the Badami Bagh Police Station SHO, who organised a peace committee comprising 14 people- including four Christians and ten Muslims- to settle the matter, the Daily Times reports.
However, local police sources revealed that the peace deal was signed after “posing threats and putting immense pressure on local Christians who simply succumbed to the pressure for being left alive and untouched, hence promising to follow the SHO’s and the peace committee’s directions”.
“It was quite ironic that the same people, who were members of the peace committee, also led mobs against Christians, one of them being a cleric Zubair from Madina Mosque, who called on local Muslims to unite and attack the church over accusations that the church had deliberately burnt papers containing Quranic verses, which were found on a nearby garbage heap on Tuesday morning,” they added.
The local people alleged that a Christian in the area kept reciting verses from the Bible while passing through streets, and demanded that he should be barred from doing so in order to ‘ensure peace of mind’ to Muslim residents of the area.
Meanwhile, Christian representatives in the peace committee told the newspaper that they were very happy with the decision of the committee and local police authorities, as their on-time intervention had avoided a big chaos.
Christians would never want to come into a conflict with their Muslim brothers, as they believed in peace and harmony as per Christ’s saying of “putting the second cheek forward if somebody slaps you on the first,” they added.
The SHO said that he did not file any cases against the clerics as per the requests of the Christian locals and church leaders, keeping in mind the possibility that such an action could have further instigated the mobs instead of calming them.
He also said that the police was closely monitoring the situation in the area although there were no chances of any riots or violence in the area anymore.
