    Oz Memo To UN’s Aisha – Glass Houses! 


    What an insolent bint, that Aisha Shujune Muhammad, who seems to think that being a UN flunkey….

    .

    Maldivian Aisha Shujune Muhammad.

    .

    …confers a right to roam other people’s countries as she pleases, ranting about ‘rights!’.

    Thwarted in her sticky-beaking gallivanting around Australian prisons…

    .

    ..

    ..she’s now suspended her UN jaunt, blaming ‘limited understanding’ on the part of New South Wales and Queensland of her SPT (‘subcommittee on the prevention of torture‘ ) ‘mandate.’

    .

    And they’re accusing Australia of a ‘clear breach of human rights obligations?’

    This is not a decision that the SPT has taken lightly.”

    Oh, wow, seriously?

    Aisha and her three UN fellow-flunkeys must have thought about it for minutes and minutes!

    But how agreeable to read NSW Corrections Minister Geoff Lee’s robust riposte!

    “The whole role of our jail system is to keep people safe, protect us from the criminals that we lock up every day…

    ..

    Geoff Lee
    .

    “It’s not to allow people just to wander through at their leisure. [The UN] should be off to Iran looking for human rights violations there.” https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2022/oct/23/un-accuses-australia-of-clear-breach-of-human-rights-obligations-as-it-suspends-tour-of-detention-facilities

    Well said, Mr. Lee.

    And you might have added Uppity Aisha’s homeland, The Maldives, to your mention of Iran.

    000000

    Maldives

    The constitution guarantees freedom of expression so long as it is exercised in a manner that is “not contrary to any tenet of Islam,” a vague condition that encourages self-censorship in the media.

    State-run media and regulatory bodies, especially the Maldives Broadcasting Commission (MBC), have typically displayed bias in favor of the government and restricted coverage of the opposition.

    Journalists continue to face the threat of violence in reprisal for their work, particularly by Islamist militants…

    …..

    ….

    Freedom of religion is severely restricted.

    Islam is the state religion, and all citizens are required to be Muslims.

    Imams must use government-approved sermons.

    Non-Muslim foreigners are allowed to observe their religions only in private.

    Aussies should send Awful Aisha a simple message.

    .

    Go home and fight REAL rights battles in the sectarian swamp you oozed out of!

      She should go home and fight for freedom of religion, not hang about whatever luxury hotel the UN has put her in.

    Religious Liberty – Adolf Xi's Argie Collabo! 


    Of course we had to laugh, wrily, at the absurd claim by the Beijing despotism in response to the latest uproar about the Uighirs.

    It’s natural to expect lies from Communists, but most people who are free to express disbelief do so.

    Yet it’s not just those Muslims in Sinkiang Province who are denied the religious liberty that Adolf Xi’s autocracy lies about.

    I wonder what, if anything, Adolf’s chief Western collabo, the Argie Dope,  will have to say on the subject.

    Dope Francis And Red China – Double Standards Update! 

    That was a while ago, but has anything improved for oppressed Christians in Xi’s hell-hole empire, since we noted this?

    In September, a state-sanctioned church in Henan province was ordered to replace the Ten Commandments with quotes from President Xi. 

    Cardinal Zen: We Are Witnessing ‘Murder of the Church…

    ‘Looka dat, anudda my beeg acheemenz..’

    =

    Here’s the full quote, though I don’t know if the petition is still extant.

    Over the past year, informed Catholics and Christians in the West have watched helplessly as the Communist government in China has cracked down harder and harder on our Chinese brothers and sisters in Christ.

    Incidents of persecutions, occurring over the last year, include the fact that:

    • Christian churches have been destroyed by authorities. 
    • Two million Christians and Buddhist are being kept in detention.
    • Christian teachings have been reinterpreted according to socialist doctrine.
    • Churches in Hunan province were forced to remove displays of the Ten Commandments and replace them with quotes of President Xi Jinping.
    • Churches in Jiangxi province were ordered to remove biblical paintings and crosses and replace them with portraits of the president.
    • In some areas, all public displays of Christmas decorations have been banned.
    • In December, Christians belonging to “house churches” not recognized by the government were ordered to refrain from publicly celebrating Christmas.
    • https://lifepetitions.com/petition/support-cardinal-zen-s-plea-to-stop-the-murder-of-the-church-in-china

    As I said back then…

    Support Cardinal Zen – Resist The Argie Dope’s Sell-Out To Red China!

    Endangered Species? Afghan Christians! 


    The pure evil of the Taliban manifests itself in many ways…

    .

    .

    …but their pig-ignorant belief that it’s okay to punish  – murder, even – anybody who uses his or her God-given brain to convert from one religion to another…

    .

    .

    …that’s somehow especially outrageous.

    So here’s an appeal aimed at helping persecuted Christians.

    Christians in Afghanistan are getting calls from the Taliban saying “We’re coming for you.”

    They are knocking on doors looking for those who don’t come to mosque to find the Christians.

    Afghanistan was already a very dangerous place for Christians but the Taliban takeover has made the situation critical for the incredibly brave believers that live there.

    You see, almost all Christians in Afghanistan are converts from Islam, making them apostates under according to Islam and Mohammed. That means they are under a death sentence.

    So most of them live out their Christianity “underground” but some of them have been open about their faith.

    These are the most vulnerable.

    And while their fate seems hopeless, we are committed to save every brave Christian we can from being killed at the hands of the Taliban.

    This is the work we do. To rescue, to bandage, and to build the persecuted Church.

    Which is why I am asking you for a $30 gift that will help us serve these Christians in Afghanistan and other places that are under severe threat.

     

    Let me step back and introduce myself.

     

    My name is Jeff King, and I’m president of International Christian Concern.

    ICC

    Every year, 200 million Christians face persecution – but the press is silent about them. Therefore, many pastors and lay people don’t even know that there is a war being waged on the church worldwide.

     

    ICC is like no other group helping persecuted Christians today.

     

    We go where no one else can or will go, where missionaries know they will be murdered.

     

    We work underground with indigenous Christians who have already put their lives on the altar knowing they may be killed for what they do.

     

    When a pastor is murdered, we rescue his family, getting them to a safe place with food and shelter and the ability to provide for themselves for the long term.

     

    When a church is attacked, we help to get it back up and functioning.

     

    We work in the most dangerous places in the world including Afghanistan, Nigeria’s Middle Belt, and even North Korea.

     

    Months before the American withdrawal from Afghanistan, we were rescuing Christians behind the scenes. We knew what was coming and we removed some of the most vulnerable Christians.

     

    Since the fall of Kabul, our work goes on.

     

    For those who escape we will be there. For those who stay, we will help them hide and also to spread the faith for those know they have the message of life for the dead and dying around them.

     

    But the total cost for rescue and ongoing care for these survivors in Afghanistan alone will be well over $1 million, and we’re going to need all the help we can get.

     

    So please, if you are able, donate $30 today to help us provide hope for persecuted Christians around the world.

     

    Persecution is a complex problem that can’t be solved with just a handout, so we go deeper.

     

    Most organizations “parachute in” during a crisis. They throw money around and then leave when the headlines dry up.

     

    That’s not ICC. We stick with persecution victims and work with them for the long term.

     

    We don’t simply offer a bandage to “the wound” of persecution. We seek to break the cycle of persecution entirely.

     

     Will you donate just $30 today to provide us with the resources we desperately need to bandage the survivors of persecution or to build the church in the toughest places in the world?

     

    In Afghanistan, $1000 allows us to care for a a Christian family rescued from being murdered by the Taliban, but we help victims of persecution all over the world.

    • In Nigeria, Islamists steal the land of farmers at gunpoint. For only $30 we can get that farmer back to farming and feeding his family again.
    • In India, $100 allows us to equip a church planter with a new bicycle that will double or triple the number of churches he can plant.
    • In North Korea, $200 allows us to send multiple gospel messages in via radio.

    I know you can’t walk into a village in India to supply a church planter with a new bicycle or 100 Bibles.

     

    You can’t rescue a pastor in Afghanistan about to be murdered by the Taliban or stream the gospel into North Korea.

     

    But working together, you and I can do all this and more!

     

    Your donation of $30 or more today could literally save the life of a Christian in Afghanistan or another persecuted area.

     

    And you can’t even imagine how grateful these survivors are to be touched by the family of God across the ocean after losing everything.

     

    They see the Father in action, working through you, and rescuing them against all odds when they are at their lowest.

     

    Watching our donors care for their brothers and sisters, I am continually reminded of Matthew 25:40: “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”

     

    Thank you in advance for your support and God Bless,

     

    Jeff King

    President,

    International Christian Concern

     

    P.S. Christians in Afghanistan are facing extreme danger. Those in hiding in the country or out need emergency life support.  Please partner with me today as we Build and Bandage the church in the most dangerous places in the world.

    Canada! Petition For Religious Liberty! 


    Always happy to oblige if good people ask my help – this petition about a persecuted pastor qualifies to be spread among my readership.

    =


    Please forward this to your family and friends.

     
         
      Pastor James Coates is a faithful pastor and follower of God. As a result, he ended up in jail.

    Pastor Coates leads GraceLife Church in Alberta, Canada. When the government issued edicts that limited the free exercise of worship with overbearing COVID-19 restrictions, he chose to follow Christ.

    In true Gestapo form, government officials attended one of the church’s services in February and then charged the pastor with violating an order to shut down the church by the end of January. According to Breitbart, Pastor Coates turned himself in, but rejected an offer by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police to release him from jail if he promised to stop holding church services on Sunday.

    As of today, Pastor Coates remains in prison, but has an appeal hearing pending. He is being represented by the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, which defends the constitutional and religious freedoms of Canadians.

    TAKE ACTION

    Sign our petition supporting Pastor James Coates and GraceLife Church.

    Dope Francis And Red China – Double Standards Update! 


    In September, a state-sanctioned church in Henan province was ordered to replace the Ten Commandments with quotes from President Xi. 

     

    ‘Looka dat, anudda my beeg acheemenz..’

    My contempt for the Argie Dope is as strong as ever it was…

    Support Cardinal Zen – Resist The Argie Dope’s Sell-Out To Red China! 

    …and boy, it’s been strong for a long time, indeed, now even stronger, after reading that, at the top of the page, from a source I don’t often use.

    The example at the top of our page, of Red China’s iniquitous maltreatment of people who simply want to worship in peace, is appalling.

    .

    .

    But what is even more appalling is the hypocrisy of Foul Francis, who prattles constantly about how we should let savages pour into civilised countries…

    Argie Dope’s Dorks – A Pray-Day, But Not For Crimmigrants’ Prey! 

    Dope! “Prioritise Migrants’ Dignity Over National Security!”

    ..but lavishes undeserved gifts on the cruel dictatorship of Xi Jinping, and ‘dispatched 40 artworks to Beijing in a cultural exchange.’

    The HRW report quotes the old cur’s demand that Western governments ‘’place human rights at the heart of all policies” and notes, as I have….

    .

    Argie Dope’s Selective Prayers! 

    …. his vocal criticism of Western governments’ border control policies, while never a word of condemnation of the brutal assaults on the brave young freedom campaigners in Hong Kong, despite his persecuted flock in the former British colony urging him at least to mention the protests there.

     The Awful Argie cowers still from any sign of solidarity.

    Next time he takes up the crimmigrant cause, Catholics and Non-Catholics alike should join in a simple chorus of…

    .

    .

    Here’s more from the same HRW article, and the link, if you wish to read more about the swine’s betrayals.

    ..In November 2018, authorities disappeared Bishop Shao Zhumin of Wenzhou Diocese in Zhejiang province for at least a week.

    In November 2019, police detained Guo Xijin, a former bishop in Fujian province, after he refused to bring his church under the government-run Patriotic Catholic Association. In December, Guo fled state custody and went into hiding…

    Colorado Freakery – New Bake-A-Cake Witch-Hunt! 


    ..

    We covered the case of the Christian baker Jack Phillips, who won a famous victory at the U.S.Supreme Court, after a pair of whining queers went even further uptight than usual…

    .

    A Glorious Victory Over The Gaystapo

    …when Phillips refused on grounds of principle to bake a cake for their so-called ‘gay’ so-called  ‘wedding.’

    But another gaystapo witch-hunter quickly got into top gear.

    .

    This time the excuse is that the baker declined to bake a ‘transition’ cake for a trans-freak!

    I won’t provide its name, but if you want more info, use the link.

    What is interesting, though, is that it’s not the tax-payers of Colorado whose money is being splurged on the latest bout of anti-Christian witch-hunting.

    .

    .

    After due consideration, the ‘agency’ that collaborated with the pervert pair evidently left the tranny to do its own thing!

    Maybe the flunkeys have learned their lesson.

    But it’s still no fun for the honest baker to face more harassment for being a Christian.

    An appalling move by GoFundMe, shutting down Israel Folau’s appeal for support in his fight against the nasty ‘gay-grovel’ witch-hunt.

    We will make sure we publicise whatever alternative method the Aussie sportsman chooses as his means of raising funds in this legal crusade for free speech and religious liberty.

    Selamat Hari Pancasila! 


    Image result for hari pancasila

    =

    For non-Indonesian readers, Pancasila is the state ideology here, which encompasses the aspirations of the nation’s founders, most relevantly these days the belief that everyone should be free to worship as they wish.

    Unfortunately, not everybody in Indonesia seems entirely at ease with that admirable sentiment.

    We have written about that problem more than once.

    Religious Liberty Petition – Go After The Ayatollahs’ Brutal Henchmen! 


    A worthwhile petition!

    ICC website (persecution.org)
    Impose Sanctions on Three Iranian Judges
    Under the Global Magnitsky Act
    Iran’s Revolutionary Courts have been used to imprison Christians and other minority religious groups for decades. In prison, they suffer brutal interrogations and torture. The US government now has legal tools to punish the individual judges involved in imprisoning Christians. Please help us move the US government to target these judges. 

    TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE

    The Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act allows the president to apply sanctions to individual human rights offenders.
    ICC has identified several Iranian judges involved in imprisoning Christians and is petitioning the president to penalize them.
    Please sign this petition and send it to every Christian you know, urging the president to impose sanctions on the Iranian judges we have identified.

    Religious Liberty Petition! For U.S. Readers! 


    A good petition, forwarded with no need to comment/

     

     
    One of the US government’s most important tools to fight persecution is a commission known as USCIRF (United States Commission on International Religious Freedom).
    USCIRF was created by the US Congress to hold foreign governments accountable for persecution and to push for greater religious freedom. It also exists to act as a gadfly to the US government to focus on religious freedom in our relations with other nations.
    Every few years, USCIRF must be reauthorized by Congress in order for it to continue doing the essential work of monitoring religious freedom conditions around the world.
    It is now time for its reauthorization.
    USCIRF serves a vital role in regards to persecution.   

    TIME FOR ACTION

    Please sign this petition requesting Congress to reauthorize USCIRF and pass it on to as many friends as possible.  
    There are some who would like to see USCIRF disappear, but we can’t emphasize enough how crucial their work is.

    HOW YOU CAN HELP

    This is the last week to sign the petition, calling on Congress to reauthorize USCIRF. Will you join us in our efforts to protect religious liberty around the world? Sign thepetition today.
