"Fall" Lebanon "Horrendous" Implications For Christians And Middle East
BEIRUT, LEBANON (BosNewsLife)-- A key official of the World Evangelical Alliance Religious Liberty Commission (WEA-RLC) has warned that Iran-sponsored Hezbollah's veto over government decisions means "the fall of Lebanon" with "horrendous implications" for religious liberty and security in the Middle East.
"The fall of Lebanon is the continuation and confluence of two trends that are being monitored by WEA-RLC: The Shi'ite ascendancy and the decline of United States influence," said the organization's Principal Researcher and Writer Elizabeth Kendal.
"It has horrendous implications not only for Lebanon but for religious liberty and security in the whole Middle East." WEA-RLC, which represents millions of evangelical Christians around the world, has investigated the impact of the rise of Hezbollah, a powerful Lebanon-based Shi'ite Islamist group, on Christians and other non-Muslims.
"Shi'ite power rises and advances across the region, and as US influence declines, "allies" in the region", including Sunni Muslims and countries such as Jordan, "are switching sides," Kendal noted.
DRAMATIC RISE
"Recent reports reveal a sudden ominous and dramatic rise in religious repression and hostility from the formerly progressive and West-friendly regime in Jordan. Having demonstrated its power so profoundly, Hezbollah will not have to work too hard in Lebanon to get the Sunnis to line up behind its anti-Semitic, anti-Christian, pro-Sharia, pro-jihad "Islamic" agenda."
Believe me, I know Lebanese and they HATE the Muslims. Lebanon is a horrible example.
