Oh dear - Jaranwala, Faisalabad District in Pakistan erupts in sectarian violence
From here:
“Words fail me as I write this. We, Bishops, Priests and lay people are deeply pained and distressed at the Jaranwala incident in the Faisalabad District in Pakistan.
A church building is being burnt as I type this message. Bibles have been desecrated and Christians have been tortured and harrased having been falsely accused of violating the Holy Quran.
We cry out for justice and action from law enforcement and those who dispense justice and the safety of all citizens to intervene immediately and assure us that our lives are valuable in our own homeland that has just celebrated independence and freedom. “
Covered here:
“A mob reportedly made of up as many as 10,000 men began burning down, looting, and otherwise violently assaulting Christian communities in Jaranwala, Pakistan, on Wednesday in response to reports that a Christian man had allegedly desecrated a Quran.”
And here:
“An enraged mob vandalised multiple churches in the Jaranwala tehsil of Faisalabad on Wednesday over blasphemy allegations, following which the paramilitary Rangers were called to the area and Section 144 was imposed, according to officials.
A Christian leader, Akmal Bhatti, said the crowd had torched at least five churches and looted valuables from houses that had been abandoned by their owners after clerics made announcements in mosques inciting the mob.”
Tolerance is barely skin deep.
Onwards!

These incidents are pee-planned (auto corrected) and executed while state machinery keeps watching. How can 10000 people gather and go on a desecration spree of God's house and over 80 houses vandalised w/o police knowledge? All Doped?
In Rawalpindi city (place of Mily HQs) Shia muslim mob burnt down seminary and killed children. City Police officer was on leave, District PO on duty some place else, local police just watching. A local street market was burned down. (That was the real aim.) It was rebuilt, resold, released and millions were made.
Sounds like Victoria Nuland was in the neighborhood.
