Egypt Christians Killed for Not Paying 'Jizya' Tax
CBN News ^ | 9/14/2013

Posted on 09/14/2013 6:38:47 PM PDT by markomalley

Muslims in southern Egypt killed two Christian men for failing to pay them protection money.

Muslims in the area are demanding Christians pay them "jizya," a kind of tax that Islamic law requires religious minorities to pay Muslims.

However, the tax is so high many Christians simply can't afford it.

The Voice of the Martyrs reports that a Muslim man demanded a Christian in a village in Assiut pay him nearly $1,500.

The Christian sought help from local police but to no avail.

When he failed to come up with the money, several Muslims went to his home and shot him and his cousin to death.

What Hath Obama wrought?

He claims to be Christian.
What has he done for Christians?

In Egypt and Syria,Christians are murdered.
In the US Christians are forced to pay for abortions,and birth control, their prayers are outlawed in schools, and they are trying to ban crosses.

I think you’re right...and that explains John Roberts being blackmailed (by Iranian-born Valerie Jarrett or Moslem Obamao) into rewriting the bill to make it a “tax”—it’s jizya.

Sen. Rand Paul is hammering his fellow senators for keeping billions in financial aid flowing to Egypt’s military — even as Cairo’s security forces massacre anti-government activists.

[by “anti-government activists” is meant church-burning jihadists]

So... when is the IRS going to start collecting the ‘jizya’ tax ?

Is that why they have IRS SWAT TEAMS now ?
