Region on Fire: President Biden Sits on Sidelines as Pakistan Attacks Iran

The White House is largely silent as war in the Middle East threatens to engulf the entire region.

Pakistan’s air force launched retaliatory airstrikes against Iran Thursday morning with the aim of taking out militant hideouts, in an attack that killed at least seven persons and sent tensions between the neighboring nations soaring.

The strikes in Iran’s Sistan and Baluchestan province followed Tuesday’s Iranian attack on Pakistan that killed two children in the southwestern Baluchistan province. The attacks Tuesday and Thursday appeared to target separate Baluch militant groups that the two countries say find safe havens in the other. Earlier in the week, Iran also attacked sites in its old foe, Iraq.

Pakistan: Muslim Mobs Hunt Christians

Hundreds of Christians fled their homes on August 16 when, in the eastern Pakistani district capital of Jaranwala, Muslim mobs started an anti-Christian riot, vandalizing churches and setting churches and Christians’ homes on fire — all based just on an accusation that a Quran had been desecrated.

At least 20 churches throughout the city were set on fire and more than 400 homes belonging to Christians damaged. The rioters attacked and vandalized a Christian cemetery and burned the office of the Christian assistant commissioner of Jaranwala.

Church Burnings In Pakistan Have Far To Go To Rival Trudeau’s Anti-Christian Pogrom

Anti-Christian Acts Put Pakistan on Fire

The province of Punjab in Pakistan has been in the grip of a wave of anti-Christian persecution of rare violence over the last few days.

The violence began on August 16th, following an accusation of blasphemy against a Christian family, who were accused of desecrating the Quran by tearing out pages and insulting the prophet. They strike all Christian denominations, without distinction, and have forced thousands of Christians—around 2,000—to flee to escape the destruction of their property and homes. So far, no deaths have been reported, but many churches have been burnt down and destroyed. According to various journalistic sources, reliable numbers are hard to come by, but they range between 15 and 50.

Pakistan: ‘Eye-for-an-Eye’ Repercussions on Christians from Sweden Burning the Quran

In the interconnected, digital world of the 21st-century, an event thousands of miles away can send shockwaves felt in other parts of the world. The recent burning of a Quran in Sweden has had reverberations as far away as Pakistan and a special impact on the already defenceless Christian minority there.

This is not the first time Pakistani Christians have experienced societal prejudice, institutional discrimination, and sporadic violence. These issues are frequently exacerbated whenever similar events take place anywhere in the West. The fallout from the Quran’s desecration in Sweden, however, has intensified these conflicts, resulting in an alarming rise in threats and the defilement of Christian symbols, particularly the Cross, symbolising Christianity.

Pakistan: Third Blasphemy Case in a Month, Christians Fear for Safety

Another blasphemy incident has occurred in Pakistan, in the district of Sargodha on July 16, sending shockwaves throughout the country. This disturbing incident has ignited unrest in the area, leaving local Christians deeply concerned for their safety.

Mohd Abdul Gaffar, a retired Pakistan Air Force officer from Green Town, reported that as he was returning home after morning prayers with the imam of the local mosque and two friends, he discovered a small pamphlet containing blasphemous content on the boundary wall of his house. The contents of the pamphlet were highly disrespectful towards Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and other revered figures. The pamphlet also contained derogatory comments against the holy Quran and even praised the recent burning of a Quran in Sweden. Disturbing sketches targeting revered personalities were found as well.

Pakistan: Kidnapping, Forced Marriages, Forced Conversion

Imagine if you are a child from a persecuted religious minority living in one of the world’s most oppressive countries. The country’s majority culture and institutions are largely shaped by a religious ideology that has no regard for anything outside that system, as well as a record of mistreating women and girls.

Every day you run the risk of being kidnapped, forcibly converted to Islam, raped, and coerced into a “marriage” with an older or elderly man. This is what takes place often in Islamic Pakistan. The victims are Christian and Hindu women and children.

Pakistan’s Genocide

The genocide committed by Pakistan needs immediate recognition.

“According to Bangladesh Government estimates 3 million people were killed, over two-hundred thousand women were sexually and physically violated, and 10 million people were forced to cross the border into India, leaving behind their ancestral homes and worldly possessions just to save their lives and dignity of their women,” wrote Stichting BASUG (Bangladesh Support Group), a non-governmental organization, together with other Bangladeshi diaspora organizations to the United Nations Secretary General on May 29.

The Horror of Being Christian in Muslim Pakistan: Just One Month

The persecution of Christians in Pakistan — whether at the hands of judges and police, or mobs and rapist gangs — continues to worsen, as evidenced by one fully documented month, that of May 2023.

On May 30, for instance, a Pakistani court sentenced Noman Masih, a 22-year-old Christian man, to death for “blasphemy” (in keeping with Pakistan’s blasphemy statutes, Section 295-C of the Penal Code, which calls for the death penalty for anyone convicted of insulting Muhammad, the prophet of Islam).

China, Pakistan and Turkey Eyeing Kashmir

When India hosted a key G20 conference in Srinagar, the capital of the Jammu and Kashmir Union Territory of India, on May 22 and 23, even though the conference was reportedly attended by around 122 delegates, including 60 foreigners, it was boycotted by Pakistan as well as its longtime allies, China and Turkey.

Pakistan called the meeting “illegal.” Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India, but it is claimed by Pakistan, which has violently targeted the region through terror groups. Hundreds of people therefore rallied in the Pakistan-occupied area of Kashmir to protest the meeting.

Blasphemy Laws in Pakistan Grow Harsher

Pakistan’s blasphemy laws have once again been made even more stringent by the country’s lawmakers. Amid a long-running international outcry against the notorious blasphemy laws, the National Assembly of Pakistan on January 17 unanimously passed “The Criminal Laws (Amendment) Act 2023,” which increased the minimum punishment for those found guilty of insulting the Islamic Prophet Mohammad’s companions, wives and family members from three years to 10 years’ imprisonment, along with a fine of 1 million Pakistani rupees ($4,122).
