Jen Psaki On Islamists Hacking American Writer Avijit Roy To Death: We Have No Idea Why He Was Killed

Hacky Psaki

Yesterday, this happened:

Avijit Roy was a science writer, blogger, atheist, feminist, humanist, free thinker, and the founder of mukto Mona blog for Bengali free thinkers. He lived in the USA, but came to Bangladesh for a week or so to attend the inauguration of his new book at the national book fair in Dhaka. 

After the inauguration of his book tonight he and his wife left the book fair at around 9 pm. And then when they were on their way to home and not far from the book fair, Islamic fanatics stopped their rickshaw, dragged them out and hacked Avijit to death. The wife is alive but badly injured.

Today, Jen Psaki says she and the Administration have NO IDEA why Avijit Roy was slaughtered like an animal.

MS. PSAKI: On Bangladesh, the United States condemns in the strongest terms the brutal murder of Avijit Roy, which was horrific in its brutality and cowardice. Avijit was a journalist, a humanist, a husband, and a friend, and we extend our condolences to his family and friends. He was taken from us in a shocking act of violence. This was not just an attack against a person, but a cowardly assault on the universal principles enshrined in Bangladesh’s constitution and the country’s proud tradition of free intellectual and religious discourse. With that, Matt. 

QUESTION: All right. Well, just on the Bangladesh — 

MS. PSAKI: Oh, can I add one more thing? 

QUESTION: Yes. 

MS. PSAKI: We have a couple of friends in the back here – hello – who are visiting with us today. So we have two ladies, Jennifer and Ali, visiting, and Joe, who is one of Ryan’s friends, who is also getting married soon. Okay. Go ahead, Matt. 

QUESTION: So on the Bangladesh murder — 

MS. PSAKI: Yes. 

QUESTION: — does the – is the Administration at a point where it can ascribe any kind of motive to this? Do you believe that it was anything more than just a murder? It certainly seems that the circumstances surrounding it would indicate that it is. 

MS. PSAKI: We don’t have more information at this point. We, of course, will provide consular assistance as is appropriate. We’re also – stand ready to assist in the investigation if asked. Clearly, we know his background, which was why I outlined it, but don’t have anything to ascribe in terms of a motive in this case.

HOW DOES THIS SCRAG SLEEP AT NIGHT?

3 Million Christians "Missing" In Syria --- Presumed To Have Been Murdered By Jihadist Muslims

I saw the souls 

of them that were beheaded 

for the witness of Jesus

This is a repost of a story just a few down.

I am reposting it because this time I want to accentuate the genocide aspect of this story. (The earlier story focused on the conversion of Muslims to Christianity.)

When this genocide of Christians began in the Syria about a few years back, I began telling everyone I know about it; Pastors, fellow Christians, friends who are "concerned" with "Human Rights".

Of course, I have been ignored.

Now, it appears, 3 million Christians have been murdered.

This is another Holocaust. And the world has once again ignored the symptoms and ignored the slaughter.

It will take time for the actual news to come out and become accepted as fact.

You heard it here first. We may be wrong, but this is what appears to have happened.

Over the next few years, we will find out just how accurate this story is.

By the way, I suspect we have not seen the end of this ongoing genocide of Christians. I believe it will spread like a wildfire across the entire landscape of the Muslim world. The "Saints" will be beheaded.

From IBA:

Over 3 million Christians are currently ‘missing’ from Syria in the past 3.5 years and are not included in refugee numbers indicating that they have been killed. 

Because of the extreme persecution against Christians taking place all across the Middle East we have decided not to publish the source or details of this data or where this converted populations live in the Islamic world out of consideration for their security and safety. 

It is our opinion that the mass slaughter of Christians taking place right now is exactly due to the fact that millions of Muslims have converted to Christianity and authorities and Salafis are aware that changes are taking place and trying to put a stop to it.

Angelina Jolie is paying attention:

Days after Angelina Jolie was photographed on a visit to northern Iraq, the Unbroken director has written an impassioned op-ed about her trip for the New York Times. In it, she describes the devastation she witnessed in refugee camps and calls for action to help the millions of displaced Syrians and Iraqis who no longer have a home. 

"I have visited Iraq five times since 2007, and I have seen nothing like the suffering I'm witnessing now," she writes in the op-ed, published by the Times on Tuesday, Jan. 27. 

"For many years I have visited camps, and every time, I sit in a tent and hear stories," she explains. 

"I try my best to give support. To say something that will show solidarity and give some kind of thoughtful guidance. On this trip I was speechless." 

As previously reported, the mom of six visited the Khanke Camp for Internally Displaced People on Sunday, Jan. 25. While there, she spoke with victims of ISIS — some of whom she describes in her Times op-ed. 

"What do you say to the 13-year-old girl who describes the warehouses where she and the others lived and would be pulled out, three at a time, to be raped by the men?" the Maleficent star and U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees questions. "When her brother found out, he killed himself." 

She continues: "How can you speak when a woman your own age looks you in the eye and tells you that her whole family was killed in front of her, and that she now lives alone in a tent and has minimal food rations?" 

The piece goes on to detail the increasingly dire situation in Syria, noting that neighboring countries "have taken in nearly four million Syrian refugees, but they are reaching their limits."   

With that in mind, Jolie calls upon the international community to take action. "What does it say about our commitment to human rights and accountability that we seem to tolerate crimes against humanity happening in Syria and Iraq on a daily basis?" she asks. 

"It is not enough to defend our values at home, in our newspapers and in our institutions," she writes. "We also have to defend them in the refugee camps of the Middle East, and the ruined ghost towns of Syria."
