Ramadan in Pakistan: Muslims murder prominent Sikh leader Charanjit Singh
Ramadan is the month during which Muslims redouble their efforts to please Allah. And Allah says “kill them wherever you find them” three times (cf. Qur’an 2:191, 4:89, 9:5).
Meanwhile, in the U.S., many (but not all) Sikh leaders stand with Muslim Brotherhood-linked Islamic organizations. This is short-sighted in the extreme, as those organizations hold the same supremacist beliefs that lead to the persecution of Sikhs in Pakistan.
