Muslims Forcing Christian Assyrians in Baghdad Neighborhood to Pay 'Protection Tax'
Assyrian International News Agency ^ | 3-18-2007

Muslims in the Dora neighborhood of Iraq are forcing Assyrians (also known as Chaldeans and Syriacs) to pay the jizya, the poll tax demanded by the Koran which all Christians and Jews must pay in exchange for being allowed to live and practice their faith as well as being entitled to 'Muslim protection' from outside aggression.

At least two cases have been reported to a government employee -- who wishes to remain anonymous -- in which the Christian Assyrian wives were instructed to go to a certain mosque and pay, which they did out of fear. The stated reason for the payment was "we do the fighting and you pay to support."

The jizya has been collected since the arrival of Islam in 630 A.D.

The last systematic collection was by the Ottomans (Turks), which came to an end only in 1918, when the Ottoman empire was defeated and partitioned in World War One.

It is refreshing to note that there are some folks who are aware of the situation.

Thank you.

It is indeed.

The muslims in this, and other Western countries, are now confident that they have the "numbers" to make their move. They have been doing so...Muslim cabbies refusing to take dogs, people with alcohol, muslim cashiers refusing to touch pork products, muslim prayer rooms in airport, stadiums, schools, etc.

When will the civilized world pay attention to the lessons of history and stop the infiltration?

Per Centage of Muslims in "A Population"

The following is a description (slightly modified) from Dr. Peter Hammond's book: Slavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat.

BEGIN
As long as the Muslim population remains around 1% of any given country they will be regarded as a peace-loving minority and not as a threat to anyone. In fact, they may be featured in articles and films, stereotyped for their colorful uniqueness.

At 2% and 3% they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs [Europe, Australia, USA and Japan]. Six percent of US prison inmates are Muslim. Like any other minority, they won’t integrate, but work to build their own separate community.

It's how it works! Once they hit the 4% - 5% mark, they begin to push -- hard.

From 5% on they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. They will push for the introduction of halaal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature it on their shelves (along with threats for failure to comply).

At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islam is not to convert the world, but to establish Sharia law over the entire world.

When Muslims reach 10% of the population, they will increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions. (Paris car-burnings). Any non-Muslim action that offends Islam will result in uprisings and threats.

After reaching 20% expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings and church and synagogue burning (India, Mindanao, Philippines and Israel).

At 40% you will find widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks and ongoing militia warfare [Indonesia].

From 60% you may expect unfettered persecution of non-believers and other religions, sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon and Jizya (infidel tax). (Sudan, Kosovo, Lebanon and Egypt).

After 80% expect State run ethnic cleansing and genocide [Sudan, Western Papua (New Guinea), Biafra, Turkey and North Nigeria].

100% will usher in the peace of "Dar-es-Salaam" - House of Peace - as in Saudi Arabia, Libya and Yemen.
END

Problem is the Surviving Chaldeans and Assyrian leadership has had the fight beat out of them long ago. Neither the US Leadership nor the Catholic or other Orthodox churches are willing to help.

In Bethlehem the Greek Orthodox Church does not actively defend their own people.

It is a shameful situation (our shame)

The American track record stinks, here. Afghanistan is utterly anti-Christian and anti-freedom of religion. Iraq going that way too?

What did we "liberate" these countries for?

Hardly for liberation, it seems.
