| 200 Muslims attack deviant Islamic mosque |
| 2010-07-31 |
| Indonesian police have clashed with about 200 people trying to attack a mosque used by a minority Islamic sect known as Ahmadiya. The mob hurled stones at the mosque in Manislor village in Kuningan district in West Java, prompting an hour-long confrontation with police, a local Ahmadiya official said. "About 200 people pelted stones at our mosque and clashed with the police for about an hour. It is not clear yet who was the organiser of the mob," Nurahim, the local general secretary of the sect, told the AFP news agency. "The police were able to secure the mosque and handle the people. The situation, however, is still tense now." Nurahim said the village's 3,000 Ahmadiyah followers were ready to help the police if needed but would not respond to the violence. |

| #7 "Nurahim said the village's 3,000 Ahmadiyah followers were ready to help the police if needed but would not respond to the violence." And this is why they are persecuted in the first place. Ghandi's use of passive resistance only works when those who are being resisted are civilized enough to appreciate passive resistance. If they aren't, and they can, they will likely butcher and enslave the resistors. For further reference, see The Childrens Crusade of 1212 A.D., a well documented event bitterly denounced and denied by modern secularists. |
