THE recent terrorist atrocities in Sri Lanka come as no shock to those who have followed world events over the years.

Whether it’s Africa, Asia or the Middle East.

Around the world Christians are suffering oppression, persecution, imprisonment, torture and murder.

Christian men and boys are beheaded for refusing to convert. Christian women and girls are gang raped before becoming sold into sex slavery.

There are many reports of churches in Europe suffering attacks and desecration. Whilst before recent events within Sri Lanka there were already reports of Christians being butchered in Nigeria and churches burnt to the ground in Ethiopia.

These atrocities are carried out by those with the mind-set of the Nazis and the methodology of the Second World War Japanese. But they do not in any way represent the honest, decent Muslims on this planet.

Rape, slavery, torture and murder is the reality of what ISIS, Al-Qaeda and others have done overseas, seek to do here and will do so if we listen to the quislings who demand ISIS members be allowed back into Britain.
