AMCD Decries Rise of Antisemitic and Anti-Christian Violence

The American Mideast Coalition for Democracy abhors and condemns the violence and persecution of Jews and Christians now happening all over the world. The synagogue attack in Manchester, England, was followed by demonstrations calling to “globalize the intifada,” which can only mean the targeting of more Jews in the West. Christian villages have been burned and Christians slaughtered in Syria; and in Nigeria the slow-motion genocide against Christian communities continues unabated, as the borders of territory ruled by Islamic law are pushed relentlessly into sub-Saharan Africa.

“Open hostility toward Christians and Jews is erupting all over the world today,” said AMCD co-chair Tom Harb. And although there has always been a level of nihilistic hatred of the western world on the extreme fringes, the mass immigration of Muslims into the West in recent years has accelerated the spread of this hatred as they feel fully theo-ideologically justified in these attitudes and are open and unashamed in their displays of hatred.”

“There is no doubt the mass immigration of Muslims into the secular West is creating disruption and chaos,” added AMCD co-chair John Hajjar. “Many young people are drawn to those who exhibit extreme certainty, since the foundations of the western world have been undermined by current ideological fads, such as ‘everything is relative’ and the idea that there is no absolute truth and all human motivation is predicated on power.”

“Even as President Trump seems on the verge of historic peace agreements in the Middle East, the ideology Winston Churchill once described as the strongest ‘retrograde force’ in the world is slowly seeping into America with the express purpose of imposing Islamic law on American soil,” added former AMCD executive director, Rebecca Bynum. “Until this problem is seriously dealt with, we will continue to see acts of antisemitic and anti-Christian violence here as well.”

AMCD wants to see a world where in which all are united in the understanding that all of us are the children of God and that therefore, all are brothers and sisters in one universal family. We reject all notions of religious supremacism and condemn the acts of violence encouraged and perpetuated by such notions.
