Saudi Grand Mufti Calls for Demolition of Churches
Times of Israel ^ | 3/18/15 | Staff

Sheikh Abdul Aziz bin Abdullah says Christian religious sites in Arabian Peninsula must be razed in accordance with Muslim law

Saudi Arabia’s top Muslim cleric called on Tuesday for the destruction of all churches in the Arabian Peninsula after legislators in the Gulf state of Kuwait moved to pass laws banning the construction of religious sites associated with Christianity.

Speaking to a delegation in Kuwait, Sheikh Abdul Aziz bin Abdullah, who serves as the grand mufti of Saudi Arabia, said the destruction of churches was absolutely necessary and is required by Islamic law, Arabic media reported.

Abdullah, who is considered to be the highest official of religious law in the Sunni Muslim kingdom, also serves as the head of the Supreme Council of Ulema (Islamic scholars) and of the Standing Committee for Scientific Research and Issuing of Fatwas.

Like an infestation, it better be dealt with before it gets totally out of hand.

Christianity has been existing with the muzzies (albeit sometimes tumultuously) for hundeds or thousands of years

The fact that the clarion call to rid the land of buildings is the proof that obumbles has accomplished his task ...

Many years ago (about 6), I used to use the word "emboldened" quite frequently to describe the escalating black violence against whites

I stopped because no one would follow any of my comments with "agree" or some other indication of agreement

I think it is safe to say that the NIC in the white mosque has emboldened the world's islamo's to become more agressive and public in their demands and actions

WW3 is ON and it is not being televised .... not yet

If forced to choose, I would prefer a war on Saudi Arabia before a war with Russia, Syria, China, North Korea or pretty much any other nation. They are far more hateful, and ultimately dangerous, than any of those others

I had no idea that he was a Democrat. He’d fit right in on the HuffPost or DU.

Islam demands global submission.

Submit, convert or die.

That’s Islam.

There can be no peace with Islam until there is only Islam or no Islam.

It will be dealt with of course, but probably not by whom most people think. We already know who wins, question is how many will be saved?
