Convert to Islam or die

Syrian Islamist rebels on a child from an unknown community 

Despite many trying to arguing that Islam is a peaceful religion, we are now seeing many cases of Sunni Islamist threatening all the other communities to convert or die. Spreading of Sunni Islam through murder is not a myth but reality that is happening just in front of us now. The Shia Islam today is far more progressive. 


Conversion
 to Islam by murder

UK Dailymail reported an incident in Maaloula, near Damascus, SyriaTerrified Christians claim Syrian rebels ordered them to convert to Islam on pain of death when they ‘liberated’ their ancient village.

One Maaloula resident said the rebels, many of whom had beards and shouted ‘Allahu Akbar’ (God is great), attacked Christian homes and churches shortly after moving into the village. 


‘They shot and killed people. I heard gunshots and then I saw three bodies lying in the middle of a street in the old quarters of the village. Where is President Obama to see what has befallen us?’


Another Christian resident said: ‘I saw the militants grabbing five villagers and threatening them and saying, “Either you convert to Islam, or you will be beheaded”.’


Another said one church had been torched, and gunmen stormed into two other churches and robbed them.


Conversion to Islam by murder and monetary penalties

Times reported incidence happening on Raqqa, Syria. 


Radical Sunni Islamist rebels running the northern Syrian city of Raqqa have made the Christians living in the area an offer they can’t refuse: pay for protection, convert to Islam, or “face the sword.”


Convert to Islam by kidnap


In Egypt, kidnap is one way whereby Islamofascist evangelize their faith. Fox news reported.


It has been estimated by the ICC and other watchdog groups in the region that there have been 500 reported cases of young women being attacked by Muslim men since 2011, but unreported cases could send the figure much higher.


The girls are often assaulted, raped, kidnapped, forced to change their faith and sometimes killed.


Girls that are victims of forced conversions that are lucky enough to escape face additional problems. Firstly, any known conversion from Islam to Christianity (even if one was originally Christianity) makes her an “apostate.” That puts a giant target on her back because sharia’s punishment for apostates is death.


Meanwhile in Nigeria, Islamofascist group Boko Haram showed 130 of the 200 girls they kidnapped, telling the whole world these girls have become Muslims. At the same time, the Islamofascist group threaten to sell these newly minted Muslim girls (as sex slave?).


Convert to Islam by rape


In Pakistan, Sunni Muslim pedophille from terrorist group Lashkar-e-Tayyaba had Christian girl, 12, kidnapped, beaten and raped for eight months until she converted to Islam. She will face death if she want to convert back to Christianity under apostasy law. Meanwhile no action was taken against her rapist.


There are many more such cases. According to the Asian Human Rights Commission (AHRC), every month some 20 to 25 girls are forcibly converted to Islam in the Sindh province of Pakistan alone. These forced conversions are usually in conjunction with kidnapping and forced marriage. If they are not married off to complete and often times, far older strangers, they are beaten, maimed, raped, gang-raped, sold off or thrown into prostitution. (doing these to newly minted Muslim girls)


That does not include Pakistani Punjab, which has far more population than Sindh.


A lot Muslim states have apostasy law stipulating death for those who convert out of Islam. That creates a lot of incentive for conversion by rape. Once the sex slave convert to Islam under rape, she face death penalties if she want to go back to her original religion.


Islamofascism is way of life among substantial number of Sunni Muslims


Substantial Sunni Muslims keep ranting that they are victims of discrimination and keep telling everyone how USA, Jews, Israel and all other infidenls have ruined their life. The fact is Sunni Muslim countries is the worst abuser of their minorities. The support for death penalties against apostasy is incredibly high among Sunni, even for Malaysian Malay who never cease bragging themselves as "moderate".


The latent support for extremism among many Sunni Muslims is the reason Sunni Islam remains a very much non-tolerance religion.

The Philippines said on Saturday it had filed a protest with Beijing for reclaiming land on a disputed South China Sea reef, the fourth such complaint in three months.
The new protest over reclamation at the McKeenan Reef in the Spratly Islands chain further heats up an increasingly tense dispute over the waters where China has been accused of using bullying tactics against other claimants.
Foreign department spokesman Charles Jose said the protest was filed last week. "They are doing reclamation work," he said in a brief statement.
He did not say if China had responded.
The Philippines previously filed an objection against China in April after monitoring large-scale reclamation and earth-moving activity on Johnson South Reef, which it said might be intended to turn the tiny outcrop into an island with an airstrip.
It later announced a similar challenge over Chinese reclamation at Gaven and Cuateron Reef. China has previously brushed aside such protests, saying the outcrops are part of its territory.
All four reefs were already occupied by Chinese forces but are also claimed by the Philippines.
China claims the Spratly Islands along with nearly all of the South China Sea, which contains vital sea routes and is also believed to hold large mineral resources.
The Philippines, along with Vietnam, Brunei, Malaysia and Taiwan have conflicting claims to parts or all of the same territory, which has led to tense confrontations in recent years.
In recent weeks, China and Vietnam have traded accusations of their ships ramming each other after China set up an oil rig in a South China Sea area also claimed by Vietnam.
The Philippines asked a United Nations tribunal in March to declare China's claim to most of the South China Sea illegal.
However China has refused to take part in the proceedings.

In schools, neighborhoods, and offices lurk bullies menacing the meek. Around the world too skulk bully-countries threatening the weak. In Asia that bully is China.

Classic bullying is China’s proclivity for deceit and violence, not mutual respect, in dealing with neighbor-states. Yet like a common bully, it behaves if authorities are around or when it gets its comeuppance.

China asserts a baseless “nine-dash line” claim over the 1.35 million square miles of the South China (East Vietnam, West Philippine) Sea. Typical of the bully with made-up turf, it forbids economic usage by smaller Brunei, Malaysia, Vietnam, and the Philippines. This, despite their all being members of the UN Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, that grants 200-mile exclusive economic zones from their coasts. China’s sea claim extends up to 800 miles beyond its southernmost island-province of Hainan.

China rests its claim on speculative “ancient maps” and jumbled geology – again characteristic of the bully with illusory entitlement. The maps defy known history of Malay seafaring at a time when China reigned only as a land power. China insists as its “islands” uninhabitable rocks, reefs, and shoals that jut above water only in low tide. It hogs resource exploitation in those undersea formations, using naval force to drive away neighbors’ fishermen and oceanographers. Many times China has shelled Vietnamese craft in the Paracels, and grabbed ridges abutting the Philippine mainland. After seizing Mischief Reef off Palawan in 1995 and Scarborough Shoal off Zambales in 2012, it is now targeting Ayungin Shoal. Recently it bragged about crisscrossing Brunei and Malaysia’s coasts unimpeded.

China has interdicted even an Indian vessel that was traversing Vietnam’s coastal waters to help explore offshore oil. Like a bully, China takes its unchallenged misconduct as license to further abuse. Its navy incited poacher launches in the East China Sea to ram a Japanese coast guard patrol boat, killing the captain. In April Chinese soldiers intruded ten miles into India-held Kashmir territory, as if testing the neighbor’s mettle. China carries on its genocide of Tibetans and Uighurs of Xinjiang.

Bully China crows about invincibility. Yet when the United States Pacific Fleet recently sailed near the Ayungin Shoal, the three menacing Chinese warships disappeared from sight. And when Russian coast guards machine-gunned Chinese poachers, Beijing uncharacteristically fell silent.

Aggression is the only language China understands.

Statistics about Forced Abortion in China





Female Suicide in China



In China, suicide rates are higher for women than men,[i] while in all other countries (with the exception of the small island nation of São Tomé and Príncipe) the suicide rate is higher for men than for women.[ii]



In fact, the Beijing Suicide Research and Prevention Center reported in 2009 that the suicide rate for females was three times higher than for males.[iii]



Suicide is the leading cause of death for adult women living in rural areas in China.[iv]



56% of the world’s female suicides occur in China,[v] but only 19% of the world’s population lives in China.[vi]



In more rural areas of China, suicide accounts for one third of all female deaths.[vii]



500 women commit suicide in China each day.[viii]



Easy access to pesticides contributes to the prevalence of suicides among rural women.[ix]



Violence against women and girls, discrimination in education and employment, the traditional preference for male children, birth-limitation policies, and other societal factors contribute to the high female suicide rate.[x]



According to researcher Steven Mosher, it is no accident that, “China's women have the highest suicide rate in the world, not to mention the highest rates of breast cancer, all in consequence of having had their babies killed in utero by a state ruthlessly bent on population control.”[xi]

Abortion Statistics in China



Chinese data show that 13 million abortions are performed each year, for an average rate of 35,000 abortions per day.[xii]



One field researcher has concluded that he is fairly certain that most of the 13 million annual abortions are forced.[xiii]



According to Steven Mosher, most of the millions of abortions carried out in China have the character of a rape; that is, they were performed on women who were ordered, or even physically forced, to submit to the knife.[xiv]



Since 1971, doctors have performed 336 million abortions, have performed 196 million sterilizations, and have inserted 403 million intrauterine devices. (For comparison, in the US, where the population is about one-quarter the size of China’s, an estimated 50 million abortions have been performed since 1973.)[xv]



55% of all women in China have had an abortion and 27.3% of women in their 20’s—about 27.3 million women—have had an abortion.[xvi]



In 2000, more than half of all abortions in China were a result of prenatal sex selection.[xvii]



One survey of 8,846 women showed that of those women who have had one abortion, 35.97% have another abortion shortly after the first one.[xviii]



An average of 8 million women undergo abortions every year in China.[xix]


Anonymous said...

The abortion rate among women in China is 29.3%, which far exceeds the average level of other developed nations; in the population of 20-29 year-old young women, the abortion rate is 62%.[xx]



In Shanghai, Beijing and other large cities, the rate of repeat abortion is higher than 50%.[xxi]



Regulations requiring women who violate family-planning policy to terminate their pregnancies still exist in the 25th, 42nd, and 22nd provisions of the Population and Family Control Regulation of Liaoning, Jilin, and Heilongjiang provinces, respectively. An additional 10 provinces--Fujian, Guizhou, Guangdong, Gansu, Jiangxi, Qinghai, Sichuan, Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Yunnan--require unspecified "remedial measures" to deal with unauthorized pregnancies.[xxii]



While some researchers have suggested that Hepatitis is responsible for the high sex ratio, this is not supported by the evidence. Looking at the 2000 census data, if a second child is a male it will arrive, on average, 4 months later than a second born female. This delay in birth indicates that there is human intervention, abortions or infanticide, taking place before the birth of a male second child.[xxiii]

Women’s Rights in China



9% of ministerial positions are held by women in China.[xxviii]



As of 2012, 21% of seats in parliament are held by women in China.[xxix]



China’s international ranking with regard to female political participation dropped from 12th place in 1994 to 52nd in 2009.[xxx]



Women make up over 60% of the rural workforce, but only just over 10% of village committee members.[xxxi]



Female representation at the highest levels of the central government and the Communist Party falls short of international norms and remains far from equal to that of males. For example, in 2012, women held 1 out of 25 positions in the Political Bureau of the Communist Party Central Committee, 13 out of 204 full memberships in the Communist Party Central Committee, and 4 out of 35 positions in the State Council.[xxxii]



In 2009, women headed two of the country’s 28 ministries, and one woman is the governor of a province.[xxxiii]

the late 1990’s, there were a reported 300,000 officials whose job was to enforce the One-Child Policy. In 2005, China’s Family Planning Association claimed a membership of 92 million members, organized into more than a million branches, who helped out with enforcement.[liv]



Officials are given a financial incentive structure to meet abortion and sterilization quotas, leading to extortion and coercion.[lv]



The vaginas of rural women are routinely checked to ensure that there was no recent birth.[lvi]



The law states that family-planning bureaus will conduct pregnancy tests on married women and provide them with unspecified "follow-up" services. Some provinces fined women who did not undergo periodic pregnancy tests.[lvii]



In 2008, Chongqing out-of-quota residents were imposed fines of between 5,000 yuan (US$731) and 10,000 yuan (US$1,464) if they refused to perform an abortion, in addition to the ordinary social compensation fee of 2,000 yuan (US$293) to 5,000 yuan (US$731).[lviii]



In 2008, Shanxi couples were assessed a social compensation fee equal to 20% of a couple’s combined income once each year for seven years; for a third child, the fine rose to 40% of combined income for 14 years.[lix]



The One-Child Policy seems to be causally linked to the increased sex ratio in China. Mothers who face stricter restrictions and higher fines are more likely to have a son once they are facing possible punishment. One example is the birth rates of women who have had a single daughter. The sex ratio of children born after this first daughter changes based on the policy being enforced, with the mothers in the one child area being 3 percentage points more likely to have a son.[lx]



According to economist Ebenstein, higher fines lead to an increased sex ratio. He calculates that a 100% increase in the fine for an additional child leads to about a 1% increase in the fraction of male births.[

Traditional Chinese culture often holds that the woman bears responsibility for an act of rape. This can be seen in many areas of the world which share China's cultural tradition.

"We don't see a lot of research in this field in mainland China," Luo said. "In this aspect, we need to compare all the research from different regions, including mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and even Singapore, which are all Chinese communities… Although we have different political and economic systems, the cultural views are similar."

While the topic is troubling worldwide, it is particularly taboo within Chinese culture. An old saying notes that "to die of hunger is a small matter, but to lose your chastity is a huge matter," and still resonates in contemporary culture. Traditional gender stereotypes see males as possessing a sexual drive that the desire-free women must resist. In this view, if a woman is raped, she must have brought it upon herself.

"A woman may be viewed that she should be responsible for being raped because she aspired to date or go to a man's premises; or that she took the risk of being raped as she went out alone late at night or drank alcohol; or that she enticed others to rape her with her behavior or dressing," said Linda Wong, Executive Director of the Association Concerning Sexual Violence Against Women in Hong Kong.

The perception that a raped woman is dirty or ruined further compounds the stigma, even within a woman's own family. Luo studied one case in which after a girl was raped, "her family wouldn't put her clothes together into the washing machine when they washed the clothes. They divided them from the other family members, because they thought she was dirty."

Wong believes that these attitudes point to a larger inequality in Chinese culture. "Violence against women is rooted in patriarchal gender relations where women are assigned roles based not on their capacity but norms and values that perpetuate male dominance and superiority," she said. "The gender inequality is embedded in all levels of the society such as employment, education and social status."

The laws pertaining to rape, while not blind to the crime, largely follow cultural perceptions. For example, the definition of "rape" is quite narrow. "Only women can be victims in China—males cannot be counted as victims," Zhang said.

These laws haven't seen change in a decade or so. "The Criminal Law in China was issued in 1979, and revised in 1997… to combine the crime of fornication with an underage girl into the crime of rape," Zhang said. "Some judicial interpretations took place during 2003 and 2004. No news was heard from modification of laws since then." Sentences for rape range from three years in prison to a death sentence, though there are loopholes to the latter.

"The punishment can be a death penalty with a two-year reprieve and forced labor, which in Chinese law means a sentence can be adjusted depending on the performance of the criminal during the two-year period," Zhang said. "In recent years, there has been a decline in the use of the death penalty, so rapists are mostly given a death penalty with a two-year reprieve and forced labor."

But there is evidence that things are changing. Several domestic and international groups, including government-sponsored ones such as the All-China Women's Federation, are pushing for societal and legal change.

"There have been a number of government initiatives, and there is a very strong movement from the [All-China] Women's Federation to try and press for more resources for women who are the victims of sexual assault or rape," said Sara Davis, the executive director of AsiaCatalyst, a nonprofit organization that assists NGO startups in Asia.

There are several centers where women can receive emergency care and support as well. Many major cities have crisis hotlines, and crisis centers provide counseling and resources to assist victims. Other organizations, including the Federation mentioned above, seek to address a variety of women's issues in China.

The outrage surrounding high-profile cases may also lead to growing awareness of the issue. Early last April, a case involving five "girl hunters," men who waited outside schools for potential victims, went to trial and awaits a verdict. Four government officials, a school teacher, and a taxi driver were charged with raping several young girls and forcing them into prostitution gangs. Last year, riots protested a cover-up by Guizhou police when they declared a girl's death a suicide when in fact she had been raped and murdered.

But despite the legal changes and the growing number of resources available to victims, many agree that social change is most needed.

"The progress in culture and society may not have caught up with the progress in legislation," Luo said.

Wong agreed. "The support services such as psychological counseling, medical, health and legal services are indeed necessary, but these address practical rather than strategic gender needs. They will not put women in greater control of themselves in their own context. They will not change attitudes, behaviors and power structures," she said.

But all remain hopeful for the future.

"We're seeing a lot of changes in China right now, in terms of growing awareness of human rights and rule of law… it's true that it's a very patriarchal society and that women's rights are not taken very seriously, but that can also change pretty quickly," Davis said. "Cultures are very powerful but they are not immutable. Cultures change all the time."

Why It's Getting Easier to Say 'I Don't' in China
缘何中国人越来越敢开口说”不”

Divorce rates have been steadily rising as a result of societal changes and new bureaucractic practices in China.
由于中国社会的不断发展和相关新政策的实施,离婚率正在逐年递增。

by Chelsea Mason, Joan Chen

Anonymous said...

Getting divorced in China used to be a long and messy business. That's no longer the case. While divorce still carries some stigma and often great emotional pain, the bureaucratic part of it has been greatly streamlined. In just 20 minutes with 10 yuan (less than US$1.50) and two signatures, a Chinese couples can now sometimes untie the knot just as fast as it is to tie it in the first place.

The divorce rate in China rose 20% from 2006 to 2007, and is still rising. Though the Chinese rate still trails the U.S. rate by a large margin, the change is rocking China, especially in urban areas. Most attribute the rise to a loosening of divorce procedures in 2001 and 2003.

"Before the new law, a couple had to have a letter of reference from an employer or supervisor as part of the procedure, and even after all the paperwork, an uncontested divorce still took a month to process," said Xu Anqi, a sociologist at the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences, speaking through a translator. "But now, when they go to the Civil Affairs Bureau, they can get the [divorce] certificate immediately."

In 2001, the 21st Conference of the Standing Committee of the 9th National People's Congress adjusted the grounds for divorce to include extramarital affairs, domestic abuse and any "other circumstances leading to failure to maintain a loving relationship." Previously, none of these concerns were included in the law, yet medical conditions such as leprosy were considered acceptable grounds for divorce.

The divorce process itself changed in 2003. Uncontested divorces could be settled in a matter of minutes and without the permission of an employer or community committee.

"Sex and the City was actually an enormously influential program in China's big cities among working, well-educated women," Pomfret said. "In Shanghai, there's a late-marriage movement that's not government-backed; it's just that a lot of Shanghainese women don't want to get married, and they're happy being single, and they do well economically so they don't need men."

The law actually encourages late marriage – women over 25 years old and men over 23 who are marrying for the first time receive an extra week for their 3-day marriage leave.

Indeed, it seems that marrying late is becoming the norm. The Chinese Academy for Social Sciences noted that in 2006, the average marrying age rose to 28.2 years old for men, and 26.1 for women.

There is a new trend among those born in and after the 1980s," he said. "They get married and divorced like lightning. They believe that divorce can give them a new life or that the next marriage might be better. They're pursuing a high standard."

Despite the fact that society is becoming more open and permissive of divorce, considerable social stigma remains. But the backlash is not as obvious as one might think, Pomfret noted.

"[Divorce] is still stigmatized, but when you go out in public, you don't go out with your wife or husband," Pomfret said. "So a Chinese businesswoman will go out alone, and her husband will go out alone to their events at night. So the couple as a unit is not a huge problem. You're always signaling that you're single when you're out in China. So there's no one saying, 'Hey, where's your wife?' because you never brought her along before."

As China's society continues to develop rapidly, the future remains unclear.

"I think that Chinese society is creating a new world for itself," Pomfret said. "It's completely broken with tradition, and in many ways, it's more freewheeling than [American society]."

"I think those trends are only set to continue," he said.

In December 2003 a teacher in rural Shaanxi Province was executed for raping 58 girls in 15 years. Last October a teenage girl in rural central China tried to commit suicide after a teacher forced her to watch him rape her cousin.

Mr. Li, 28, may go on trial by the end of June, according to a court official in Dingxi, the city where the case will be heard. If he is convicted he will face a prison term of at least 10 years, or possibly the death penalty.

Local education officials as well as prosecutors refused to be interviewed about the case, other than to confirm that the trial would be forthcoming. China's state-controlled news media have remained silent, except for a short initial newspaper article that reported Mr. Li's arrest.

But a visit to this village found families who vented their anger at such a violation of trust. The village is nearly six hours from the provincial capital, Lanzhou, the last three hours on a dirt road through the mountains. The hilltop ruins of old fortifications are reminders that clans once ruled this remote land. .

Farming is the primary livelihood, although it provides only subsistence for some families, who often delay sending a child to school to avoid the fees. Girls are usually the first to be kept home, and some do not start school until age 9 or 10. Mr. Li's fourth-grade class had about 50 pupils, of whom about 26 were girls, with ages ranging from 10 to 14. In all, the school has more than 900 students, drawn from nearby villages.

Zhang Shengxia, at 10, was one of the youngest girls in Mr. Li's fourth-grade class and, as it happened, one of the luckiest. She said the rapes began last fall as the teacher selected girls, one after the other. The girls talked to one another about what was happening but did not dare tell anyone else.

The Chinese preference for a son and a male heir is another factor. Meanwhile, some children are abducted and then sold as slaves or forced into working in sweatshops.

And though boys are the main victims of child abduction, girls can sometimes be sold as wives. In some parts of rural China, buying a wife is not seen as a crime but as a part of Chinese tradition.

What the Chinese government do to stop child trafficking?

THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT DO NOTHING BECOZ THEY ARE CORRUPTED RULING COMMUNIST PARTY.

Anonymous said...

When you look at the size of China, for instance [in] this recent crackdown, there were 89 children rescued and about 300 traffickers were arrested. That's actually a very small number considering the scope of the problem in neighbouring countries, like the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos.

"The real issue for China is [how to deal with] the difficulties of the extremes of poverty and wealth. Trafficking of children is very much associated with poverty and, because of the migrant population, [a] very large number of people who are leaving rural areas and looking for opportunities in urban areas, this affects both adults, young people and at times children.

"So there is an enormous pull to leave home and find work. So during this period of China's growth, there is a significant trafficking problem but the [reported] numbers are actually quite small."

Hardcore Islamist Malays. I just find it funny how they are bringing up Chinese rapes when there is no culture that promotes rape like the Muslim Malay culture. Even Japanese feel disgusted by them and all Malay women prefer White and East Asian men. The only thing keeping them is the threat of death if you leave Islaaammmm.

Guess the race

Yet no one likes Muslims which includes malays. Not even Muslims LOL. Even your own Penan people hate Malay Muslims very much while you pretend to be Iban, Dusun, Dayak on this site. I asked them myself, they hate how you are burning down their churches and forcing your shit religion on them.

All of those countries except Malaysia and Indonesia would accept "chinese" over "malays" any day. And to that, no one cares what Malaysians and Indonesians think
