Murdered Missionary Medical Team Hides "Jesus" From Their Website
as Taliban Killers Accuse Them of Being Missionaries

Exclusive by Shelomo Alfassa

NEW YORK, NY (August 8, 2010) It was widely reported that ten members of the 'International Assistance Mission' were killed in northern Afghanistan last week. The Associated Press quoted Taliban soldier Zabiullah Mujahid as saying the Taliban claimed responsibility for the murders, claiming they had killed the people because they were “spying for the Americans” and “preaching Christianity.

It is widely known (but rarely reported) that many "aid workers" are also Christian missionaries, which teach, among other things, that if you don't accept a belief in "Jesus" then you will not go to heaven. The U.S. Government does not usually mind missionaries in a war zone, because part of warfare is to "win the hearts and minds" of the enemy--and that is, in part, what happens when you remove people (in this case) from their native-born religion.

The 'International Assistance Mission' was no different than any other self-declared Medical assistance group which also act as "Christian" missionaries--except in this case, they are denying it, probably because it is not politically correct (nor is it legal) for them to be proselytizing Christianity to Muslims. A search of the Internet will quickly establish that 'International Assistance Mission' certainly is a missionary organization. By way of example, here is a paragraph from a story written in 2007 which mentions the missionary activity of 'International Assistance Mission':

I was a self-supporting missionary as a teacher. In a few years, we had over 70 Christian tentmakers in Afghanistan. After we had been there for 15 years, the government allowed medical doctors, nurses and teachers of the blind to enter the country as regular missionaries with the skills needed to help their people. Today the International Assistance Mission has over 100 workers from 28 different agencies and 13 countries in that nation. [or Afghanistan] Here we see the fruit [converts] of cooperation between tentmakers and mission agencies.(1)

Further, in 2001 several members of 'International Assistance Mission' were expelled from Afghanistan after being arrested, with other Christian NGO personnel, for proselytizing toward Muslims.(2) Fellow missionary organizations which preach about "Jesus" such as the Christian Science Monitor have call the 'International Assistance Mission' a "Christian medical team at well.(3)

The free world is fighting an enemy who's guide to warfare and foundation is their Bible--the Qu'ran. If educated people think they are not putting their lives in risk by going to lawless Afghanistan and attempting to take the enemy's religion from them, they are fooling themselves. These people took the ultimate risk and lost. While it is a sickening tragedy that these people were murdered by the enemy, we still need to ask, why did the International Assistance Mission do the following:

1) Denied they were missionaries when the whole world knows what they do (in addition to their medical work)?

2) Quickly remove the reference to "Jesus" off of their Website when news of the murders went public?
