- Such inaccurate
portrayals that seek to downplay the Muslim persecution of Christians
are standard for the BBC.
- "[T]he
French and the US, with their regional allies... persevere in error,
commit strategic, grotesque mistakes ... instead of recognizing that
their guaranteed support to jihadist groups has led us to this chaos and
has destroyed Syria, making us regress 200 years." — Syrian
Archbishop Jacques Behnan Hindo.
- "The Saudi
Arabian government has reportedly passed a law that imposes the death
penalty on people caught smuggling Bibles into the majority-Muslim
country. ... This means that anyone handing out any kind of religious
literature that is not of Islamic faith can legally be executed" —
Samuel Smith, The Christian Post.
- All churches in
Cairo must be demolished. — The Islamic State.
Islamic State terrorists prepare to murder 21 Egyptian
Christians in Libya, February 2015.
|
Throughout February, members of the largest Christian minority in the
Middle East, the Copts, were slaughtered.
The Islamic State released a video in mid-February depicting 21
poverty-stricken Coptic Christians being decapitated in Libya, where these
men had gone to find work. While holding their victims' bodies down, Islamic
State members shoved their fingers in the Christians' eyes, craned their
heads back, and sliced away at their throats with knives — all in the name of
Allah and Islam, even as the slaughtered called out to the "Lord Jesus
Christ."
Over one month before the video appeared, the BBC had falsely reported
that the majority of those now-slaughtered Copts were "released."
(Such inaccurate portrayals that seek to downplay the Muslim persecution of
Christians are standard for the BBC.)
