The Ongoing Religious War: Radical Islam’s War Against Christianity and Judaism
Across the globe, radical Islamists are waging an unrelenting war against Christianity and Judaism. This war is not confined to a single region—it is a global campaign of terror, persecution, and ideological subjugation. Their rallying cry, “First we will come for the Saturday people, then we will come for the Sunday people,” reveals their strategy: annihilate the Jews first, then turn their sights on the Christians.
Through jihadist attacks, genocide, and fatwas calling for extermination, radical Islamists are carrying out a systematic assault on these two religions. This war is not only fought with bullets and bombs but also through political subversion, cultural warfare, and demographic expansion into vulnerable nations.
The War on Judaism: "The Saturday People"
Radical Islamists have long made the destruction of the Jewish people a central tenet of their ideology. Their war against Judaism is carried out through multiple fronts:
1. The Call for the Destruction of Israel
For radical Islamists, the existence of Israel is an affront that must be erased. Groups such as Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Iranian regime openly call for the obliteration of the Jewish state. The 1979 Iranian Revolution cemented this ideology into the fabric of its government, leading to direct support for terrorist proxies who attack Israeli civilians with rockets, suicide bombers, and stabbings.
Hamas Charter (1988): Calls for the destruction of Israel and the killing of Jews.
Hezbollah's Leader Hassan Nasrallah: "If Jews all gather in Israel, it will save us the trouble of going after them worldwide."
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei: Regularly calls for "wiping Israel off the map."
2. Global Attacks on Jews
Jews are not safe even outside Israel. Radical Islamist attacks on Jewish communities have been escalating:
France: The 2015 Hyper Cacher supermarket attack, where four Jews were murdered in a hostage crisis by an Islamist terrorist.
United States: The 2019 Jersey City shooting and the 2022 Colleyville synagogue hostage crisis.
Argentina: The 1994 AMIA bombing, killing 85 people, carried out by Hezbollah on Iranian orders.
3. Antisemitic Indoctrination
Radical Islamic schools and media continue to indoctrinate children with antisemitic propaganda. Textbooks in jihadist-controlled territories portray Jews as enemies that must be exterminated. The education system under Hamas in Gaza and the Islamist regime in Iran breeds the next generation of Jew-hating radicals.
The War on Christianity: "The Sunday People"
After targeting Jews, radical Islamists shift their focus to Christianity, seeing it as another enemy to be crushed. Across the Middle East, Africa, and even the West, Christians are being massacred, enslaved, and driven from their homes in a campaign of religious cleansing.
1. The Fatwa Against Christians
Fatwas issued by radical clerics call for the killing of Christians, destruction of churches, and the forced conversion of entire communities. These declarations have led to systematic attacks:
ISIS’s Fatwa (2014): Declared all Christians must "convert, pay the jizya, or die." This resulted in mass executions and the displacement of tens of thousands in Iraq and Syria.
Al-Shabaab’s Christian Kill Lists: The Somali jihadist group regularly executes Christians in Kenya and Somalia, targeting pastors and churchgoers.
Boko Haram’s War on Christianity: The Nigerian terror group has killed thousands of Christians, razed churches, and kidnapped Christian schoolgirls for forced conversion.
2. The Genocide of Christians in Africa
The most ignored genocide in modern history is the slaughter of Christians in Africa by radical Islamists. This ongoing religious war is fueled by groups such as:
Boko Haram (Nigeria): Massacres entire Christian villages, abducts schoolgirls, and executes pastors.
Fulani Militants (Nigeria & Mali): Have murdered over 50,000 Christians in the past decade alone.
ISIS in Mozambique: Beheads Christians and burns churches.
Al-Shabaab (Somalia & Kenya): Hunts down and executes Christians for sport.
These are not isolated incidents; they are part of a coordinated strategy to exterminate Christianity from the region.
3. The Destruction of Churches and Christian Symbols
Radical Islamists see churches as symbols of their enemy’s faith. Their destruction is meant to erase Christianity from history. Some of the most devastating attacks include:
The 2017 Palm Sunday bombings in Egypt by ISIS, killing 47 Coptic Christians.
The Sri Lanka Easter bombings (2019) killing 269 Christians attending church.
The repeated burning of churches in Nigeria, Pakistan, and Sudan to force Christians out of those regions.
The War Moves to the West
While much of the radical Islamist war against Christianity and Judaism takes place in Africa and the Middle East, its reach has expanded into Europe and the United States. Their tactics go beyond terrorism and include:
1. Political and Cultural Subversion
Using the legal system to silence criticism by branding any opposition as "Islamophobic."
Pushing for blasphemy laws to criminalize speech critical of radical Islam.
Grooming politicians and activists to act as enablers for radical ideologies.
2. The Demographic Strategy
Radical Islamists are leveraging mass migration to spread their ideology. In parts of Europe, Islamist groups establish no-go zones where Sharia law overrides national laws. Christian and Jewish communities are harassed, while local governments turn a blind eye out of fear of being labeled "racist."
3. Attacks on Christian and Jewish Communities
The 2016 murder of a Catholic priest in France by Islamists who slit his throat during mass.
The Charlie Hebdo massacre—punishment for blasphemy against Islam.
The rise in antisemitic attacks in Western cities as radical Islamists target Jewish businesses and synagogues.
What Can Be Done?
Recognizing the Threat
The West must wake up to the reality of radical Islam’s war against Christianity and Judaism. Political correctness and appeasement will not stop an enemy that openly declares its genocidal intentions.
Defending the Persecuted
Provide military aid to Christian and Jewish communities under attack.
Establish asylum programs for persecuted Christians and Jews from Africa and the Middle East.
Crushing Jihadist Networks
Target funding sources for radical Islamist groups.
Shut down radical mosques and madrassas that preach violence.
Increase intelligence operations to root out terrorist cells in the West. 
Fighting the Ideological War
Counter Islamist propaganda online and in the media.
Support ex-Muslims and moderate voices who expose radical ideologies.
Conclusion
Radical Islamists are waging an unrelenting religious war against Christianity and Judaism. Their ideology is clear: first, destroy the Jews; then, eliminate the Christians. This war is being fought through terrorism, genocide, fatwas, and political subversion.
The question is: Will the West continue to ignore this war, or will it fight back before it is too late?
