And not only from the Taliban, but for Afghan Muslims who have converted to Christianity, they face danger even from their own neighbors and family members.
Breitbart Afghanistan is home to a small minority of Christians already brutally repressed under the now-defunct administration of former President Ashraf Ghani. Prior to the Taliban’s return to power on August 15, Open Doors had ranked Afghanistan second only to North Korea on its World Watch List, an annual listing of countries doing the most to abuse, suppress, and violate the human rights of Christians and other religious minorities.
Afghans found with Christian materials on their mobile phones, such as downloadable Bibles, faced immediate execution according to some on-the-ground reports.
“Non-Muslims are especially unwanted, and Christians are in grave danger,” according to Amy Lamb, Open Doors USA’s Director of Communications. “Those who are exposed will be severely punished with kidnapping, torture, possibly even death.” “The thin layer of protection and justice that Afghan Christians had before the takeover is now completely gone. Christians are looking for ways to survive,” Lamb emphasized.
Express The Taliban have sought to portray themselves as a moderate and reasonable regime, compared to their past rule in Afghanistan. However, there are growing fears that thousands of Afghan Christians will face brutal persecution at the hands of the Taliban. There are already reports of Taliban fighters “going door to door” in search of Christians, with at least one case of an Afghan Christian being killed by militant fighters for owning a bible.
Andrew Boyd, a UK spokesman for Release International, told GB News that “these are the days of the long knives in Afghanistan among the religious minorities, including the Christians.” “Christians lived in hiding before the Taliban came to power. We are talking about an invisible group of people who are hidden because they have to be. “To become a Christian in Afghanistan is an act of apostasy punishable by death, imprisonment or deportation.”
Calling the situation in Afghanistan “dire, former US Congressman Mark Walker has alleged that a Christian Afghan was skinned alive and hung on a pole by the Taliban in front of his family, according to a report by India Today.

Joe Biden’s policies have made life for Christians much worse in Afghanistan.
Rebel Patriot says
If all these civilians in Afghanistan had taken up arms against the Taliban thugs, Afghanistan would be in a better place today. Twenty years there. Ridiculous!!

If a religion cannot take any criticism and attacks or even kills people who dont care for their religion then this is known as fascism.
If a religion speaks about god ALL the time then they are very religious.
If a religion cannot allow anybody to leave that religion imposed upon them at age three months, then this is a cult.
Therefore islam is a Fascist Religious Cult in every possible definition of that term.
islam is Satan in a turban, in Drag, and we can see where that is going in America today when the parents bring their children into an Adult Gay Club and watch them hand money to Homosexual men in women’s clothing.
However you need a License to get a Dog.

How right you are.

‘Funny’ how you can heard how the Taliban are dropping each and every thing they weren’t going to do – this time, and all the usual ones just let it go without even an actual comment about the how these Taliban are just the same ones as the last Taliban government. This isn’t an display of being stupid about what is happening – they known, and they just don’t care about it there in Afghanistan or here in our nation. These types will keep overlooking the abuse that is Islam until it’s their turn…

I am surprised there are even any Christians in that sewer of a country.
BareNakedIslam says
I read that there are under 20,000.
canuckguynbgmailcom says
That’s a lot considering the sea of hostility they are in. Wow, they must be true blue believers.
BareNakedIslam says
I think they must keep a very low profile.

Instead of rescuing severely persecuted Christians, the rabid Christian-hater Obama-Biden regime rescued about 89,000 Afghan Muslims who are ardent followers of Warlord Mohammad, Mohammad’s Quran and Mohammad’s God of DEATH, DESTRUCTION and MASS BARBARIC GENOCIDES of Non-Muslims.
Mohammad’s God of ETERNAL DARKNESS.
The Afghan Muslims were allowed to rush on to American planes and were immediately imported into America.
The Obama-Biden regime who seized power over America via massive voter fraud and other nefarious acts, announced they plan to import many thousands more Afghan Muslims. No plans to rescue even one Christian.
Thousands of Americans, Brits and German citizen contractors were abandoned behind enemy lines by the ruthless Obama-Biden regime.
The communist regime that rules America have given $Billions of Dollars to their partners, their BELOVED Taliban terrorist killer savages. The SONS of SATAN. The TORTURERS of CHRISTIANS.
