One day after the #Christmas tree was lit in Al-Sqailbiyyah, in the Hama countryside, it was set on fire by a group of foreign fighters affiliated with HTS. pic.twitter.com/s0Iof3DcAc

Now, the people of Al-Sqailbiyyah are protesting the burning of their #Christmas tree by jihadists affiliated with HTS, just two days before Christmas. Marching through the village, they carry a large #Cross to show the jihadists that they are Christians and not afraid, shouting… pic.twitter.com/J2Z4YvSVCm

The popular Muslim preacher Zakir Naik once said: “If you say ‘Merry Christmas,’ you are building your place in hell.”
Jennifer U Anaya says
That is clearly a hate crime.
Condor says
Will be a shock to HTS when it finds itself in Hell with Muhammad!
Leonidas says
How fo uoy know?

Do you think that terrorizing people who celebrate Christmas makes you a nice person? (whether you literally believe in hell or not is a separate issue).
rick says
Tired of reading about Muslims burn this and Muslim destroy that and Muslims beat up so and so and kill Mr or Mrs X. When will it be understood by the civilized world that Islam is a corrosive and destroying ideology and it produces people who hate or refuse to accept people who do not agree or adhere to Muslim concepts. Communists are at least human beings in comparison. The only group close to Muslims are Nazis, an ideology with whom they agree and support many of that group’s philosophy.
ProfDPM says
Communists have killed more innocent people than the Nazis and Jihadies combined. None of the three groups are “human beings.”

I hate all three tyranical creeds.
Islam has likely killed more than either Communinists and certainly more than Fascsts–but they are certainly all in the same horrifying company. Islam hads been around the longest, and actually *sacralizes* its savagery.
somehistory says
Mr. David Horowitz (of FrontPageMag) wrote “Dark Agenda,” in which he documents the people murdered by the groups listed above by ProfDPM.
No small numbers.

All horrifying numbers, Somehistory.
Despite these dark matters, I hope you and yours are having a wonderful Christmas.
Joe Scott says
Vile backward scum…
Chuck Kimberl says
Yes, indeed.
somehistory says
mozlums never tire of showing how much they hate and lust to destroy anything connected to those they hate.
“The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy,” said Jesus Christ about satan the devil.
“You are from your father the devil, and you wish to do the desires of your father,” Jesus said to His enemies.
Andrew Blackadder says
Im shocked just shocked say it aint so that the followers of such a peaceful tolerant loving faith would attack and destroy symbols of peace and tolerance in their faith.
The Religion of Piss at it finest.

Es kommt vor, dass ich mir den Magen verdorben habe, mir hundsübel ist, aber das unverdauliche Zeugs in meinem Magen einfach nicht rauskommen will, trotz Kopf über der Toilettenschüssel… Dann hilft ein Blick in die Jihad-Watch Lektüre und kann mich dann endlich über der Schüssel erleichtern.

Good to see Uzay Bulut reporting here again.
Kayahanuygur is spot on. As ugly as this vandalism was, the worse thing is the implicit threat to Christians and anyone who celebrates Christmas, even as a secular holiday.
And note that HTS–Ha’yat Tahrir al-Shams–is the Jihad terror group that seems to have emerged strongest among the Syian rebels. Doesn’t look good for Christians in Syria.
