Islamists setting up their stall as an "Evil Empire" again: U.S. Responds to Demolition of Hare Krishna Property in Kazakhstan
The U.S. Embassy in Kazakhstan has condemned the recent destruction of a dozen homes of Hare Krishnas in the central Asian republic as unjust treatment of the religious group.
"The forceful eviction of homeowners in freezing temperatures and the destruction of their possessions contradicted principles of due process and fairness," the embassy said in a Dec. 5 statement. It urged authorities to halt "further aggressive actions" and seek a peaceful end to ongoing legal disputes with Hare Krishnas, who are members of a Hindu devotional movement.
This comes close to attempted genocide and UN forces should be available to handle this matter, but the UN has (and still is) allowed Muslim genocide already in Darfur, presumably as the Chinese want oil. Not a pleasant picture. And Islamists are setting up their stall again as an "evil empire" since they are cowing the US.
The BBC say of Kazakhstan : "If it's a small Christian group you belong to, or a non-traditional Muslim group, if you are Baptist or member of some Sufi brotherhood - then you will run into problems."
To religious minorities it serves as an example that in Kazakhstan stability is not always guaranteed, and that religious harmony does not always stretch very far.
IMO: People of all faiths and no faith should protest to their own Governments and elsewhere about this sort of thing. And that's at the very least. Who would not say "humbug" to Islamism after they protest against a few peaceful cartoons of Mohammed but are happy to allow ethnic cleansing.
