17 churches in Aceh Province were sealed and shut in early May.

The election of a hard-line Islamic governor in Indonesia’s Aceh Province last month appears to have opened the way for a crack-down on the minority Christian community, which saw 17 churches sealed shut in early May.

Police accompanied by demonstrators, who were reportedly organized by the hard-line Islamic Defenders Front, undertook the sealing of the churches, reportedly padlocking the front gate and posting a sign stating, “In 3 x 24 hours, the regency government must tear down this church building.”

Christian leaders told Compass that, besides the usual pretext of lack of church permits–applications for which local authorities routinely deny or delay–the demands were based on a controversial agreement that Christians were reportedly forced to sign in 2001 stipulating that there be only one church and four chapels in the regency.

My comment:

Islam is branded as the religion of “peace”. Surely it is. But only after all Christians have been brought to silence, or into submission to “allah”.
It is funny how Europe feel they will escape the carnage followers of the Koran create in Asia, the Middle East and North and central Africa.

Only fools do not look for fruits of religious people. The take their words at face value, and become royally deceived.

Jesus warned us in advance to look for fruits. The fruits of Islam is rotten to its core.

Matthew 7:16-19
By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

Shame in those who wants to keep our borders wide open for this evil.

Document critiques Israel for anti-democratic bills, anti-Arab discrimination, not prosecuting settler violence.

p-019472-00-01h_466_318_sha — The EU use every possibility to attack Benjamin Netanyahu for his defense of Biblical Zionism.

For the second day in a row, the European Union issued a document that had some harsh words for Israel, saying a spate of “potentially discriminatory or even anti-democratic bills” were tabled in the Knesset, and blasting Jerusalem for not prosecuting those responsible for settler violence.

The criticism came in an annual document summarizing the political and economic situation in Israel as part of the EU’s review of its partnership with other countries, known as the European Neighborhood Policy.

While saying that the IDF recently stepped up interventions against settlement violence, the report said the overwhelming majority of cases filed with the Israel Police against such attacks were closed without indictment.

In addition, the report found “media freedom, freedom of expression and freedom of assembly remained problematic in the occupied Palestinian territory in 2011.”

It also said Palestinian economic and social rights remained “hampered by Israeli restrictions on the freedom of movement,” and that “the risk of forced displacement of Bedouin communities increased.”

It also said women’s rights in the country “have become the subject of increasing debate as a result of a more aggressive attitude on the part of the ultra-Orthodox groups.”

My comment:

Who said Israel is perfect?

But is the EU perfect?

The European Union should clean up its own mess before pointing fingers towards others.

There have been violence in the EU too over the last years. But Israel do not try to police the Europeans, and tries to support those who want to demonize Europe or true to delegitimize the whole continent.
