That is the number of our Christian brothers around the world who are persecuted for their faith. However, in a lot of European countries, the tragedies they are experiencing are surrounded by silence. For many years, the Western world, which has forgotten its Christian roots, has been regarding this phenomenon with indifference. In the last decade, we have built a Christian Democratic state in Hungary and included the protection of Christian culture in our Fundamental Law. At the same time, however, we immediately saw that the defence of Christian freedom is a command that transcends our borders. Being a Christian means to act since love, hope and faith are nothing but empty words, empty coins without action. This culture of freedom to act obliges us, Hungarians today, to give hope to our persecuted brothers, to help them start a new life in their homelands, while it is also urging us to be sober and take help where the trouble exists, and not to bring the trouble here. That is why we have established the State Secretariat for the Aid of Persecuted Christians and published the Budapest Report for the third time, which not only provides an accurate picture of the attacks on Christian communities and fills a gap, but also presents the results of our reconstruction efforts in areas previously affected by war. We are certainly aware that Hungary’s strength alone is not enough for this task, but we trust that our stance will encourage other countries to act, for the old wisdom is still true today: nothing persuades us but the truth, and nothing saves us but love. Soli Deo gloria! October 2019 Budapest Viktor Orbán Prime Minister of Hungary 7 PREFACE The Hungarian Government has been assisting persecuted Christian communities as part of its public policy for several years now. As a result of that, it has set up several new programs. The Hungarian uthoritiesa support the reconstruction of those places of worship, private property educational and medical institutions which have been damaged in sectarian clashes. Besides these examples, the Hungarian cabinet also decided to set up a new scholarship program for persecuted Christian youth and as a groundbreaking initiative, it also publishes a yearly summary about the situation of persecuted Christians. The authors of this work give a regional analysis/evaluation of various Christian communities. They overview the prospects of exiled Oriental Churches, the international community, and multiple countries, organizations and religious communities. Those countries are given special attention in the Budapest Report, whose governments are attempting to help Christian communities in need, either through either legislation or assistance programs. That is why this publication includes studies about the United States of America, Great Britain and Russia. The persecution of Christians can have several reasons besides religious fundamentalism and extremism. Therefore, this volume also includes studiesexamine the suffering of Christian communities in communist North Korea, and those threatened by nationalism

  • Montenegro Old and New: History, Politics, Culture, and the People
    60 ZuZana Poláčková; Pieter van Duin Montenegro Old and New: History, Politics, Culture, and the People The authors are focusing on how Montenegro today is coming to terms with the task of becoming a modern European nation, which implies recognition not only of democracy, the rule of law, and so forth, but also of a degree of ‘multiculturalism’, that is recognition of the existence of cultural, ethnic, linguistic and religious minorities in a society that is dominated by a Slavic Orthodox majority. In his context they are analyzing the history of the struggle of the Montenegrin people against a host of foreign invaders – after they had ceased to be invaders themselves – and especially their apparently consistent refusal to accept Ottoman sovereignty over their homeland seemed to make them the most remarkable freedom fighters imaginable and led to the creation of a special Montenegrin image in Europe. This im- age of heroic stubbornness and unique martial bravery was even consciously cultivated in Western and Central Europe from the early nineteenth century onwards, as the Greeks, the Serbs, the Montenegrins and other Balkan peoples began to resist the Ottoman Empire in a more effective way and the force of Romantic nationalism began to influence the whole of Europe, from German historians to British politi- cians, and also including Montenegrin and Serbian poets themselves. And what about the present situa- tion? The authors of this essay carried out an improvised piece of investigation into current conditions, attitudes, and feelings on both the Albanian and the Slavic-Montenegrin side (in September 2012). key words: Montenegro; history; multiculturalism; identity; nationalism; Muslim; Orthodox Montenegro (Crna Gora, Tsrna Gora, Tsernagora) is a small country in the Western Balkans region with some 625,000 inhabitants,1 which became an independent nation in 2006 and a can- didate-member of the EU in 2010.

    Secrets of RSS DEMYSTIFYING THE SANGH (The Largest Indian NGO in the World) by Ratan Sharda © Ratan Sharda E-book of second edition released May, 2015 Ratan Sharda, Mumbai, India Email:[email protected]; [email protected] License Notes This ebook is licensed for your personal enjoyment only.

Thank you for respecting the hardwork of this author. About the Book Narendra Modi, the present Prime Minister of India, is a true blue RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh or National Volunteers Organization) swayamsevak or volunteer. More importantly, he is a product of prachaarak system, a unique institution of RSS. More than his election campaigns, his conduct after becoming the Prime Minister really tells us how a responsible RSS worker and prachaarak responds to any responsibility he is entrusted with. His rise is also illustrative example of submission by author in this book that RSS has been able to design a system that can create ‘extraordinary achievers out of ordinary people’. When the first edition of Secrets of RSS was released, air was thick with motivated propaganda about ‘Saffron terror’ and RSS was the favourite whipping boy as the face of ‘Hindu fascism’. Now as the second edition is ready for release, environment has transformed radically.

  • The Other Face of Fanaticism
    February 2, 2003 The Other Face of Fanaticism By PANKAJ MISHRA New York Times Magazine On the evening of Jan. 30, 1948, five months after the independence and partition of India, Mohandas Gandhi was walking to a prayer meeting on the grounds of his temporary home in New Delhi when he was shot three times in the chest and abdomen. Gandhi was then 78 and a forlorn figure. He had been unable to prevent the bloody creation of Pakistan as a separate homeland for Indian Muslims. The violent uprooting of millions of Hindus and Muslims across the hastily drawn borders of India and Pakistan had tainted the freedom from colonial rule that he had so arduously worked toward. The fasts he had undertaken in order to stop Hindus and Muslims from killing one another had weakened him, and when the bullets from an automatic pistol hit his frail body at point-blank range, he collapsed and died instantly. His assassin made no attempt to escape and, as he himself would later admit, even shouted for the police. Millions of shocked Indians waited for more news that night. They feared unspeakable violence if Gandhi's murderer turned out to be a Muslim. There was much relief, also some puzzlement, when the assassin was revealed as Nathuram Godse, a Hindu Brahmin from western India, a region relatively untouched by the brutal passions of the partition. Godse had been an activist in the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (National Volunteers Association, or R.S.S.), which was founded in the central Indian city of Nagpur in 1925 and was devoted to the creation of a militant Hindu state.

    www.stj-sy.org Turkey Continues to Weaponize Alok Water amid COVID-19 Outbreak in Syria Turkey Continues to Weaponize Alok Water amid COVID-19 Outbreak in Syria Turkey hampers the urgent response to Coronavirus Pandemic by cutting off water to over 600.000 population in northeast Syria Page | 2 www.stj-sy.org Turkey Continues to Weaponize Alok Water amid COVID-19 Outbreak in Syria 1. Legal analysis a) International Humanitarian Law Water is indispensable to civilian populations. It is not only essential to drink, but also for agricultural purposes and sanitation, all the more important in the wake of the COVID-19 sanitary crisis. Although at first neglecting the significance of water and food for civilian populations caught in armed conflicts, drafters of the Geneva Conventions’ Protocol remedied the gap by including, in Article 54 Additional Protocol I and in Article 14 Additional Protocol II for International and Non-International Armed Conflicts (IACs and NIACs) respectively, the protection of objects indispensable to the survival of the civilian population. Involving two states, that of Syria and that of Turkey, the ongoing conflict currently taking place in northeast Syria is of international character. As a result, and in application of these provisions, in IACs: It is prohibited to attack, destroy, remove or render useless objects indispensable to the survival of the civilian population, such as foodstuffs, agricultural areas for the production of foodstuffs, crops, livestock, drinking water installations and supplies and irrigation works, for the specific purpose of denying them for their sustenance value to the civilian population or to the adverse Party, whatever the motive, whether in order to starve out civilians, to cause them to move away, or for any other motive.

  • Holy Land Coordination in 2017: 50 Years of Occupation
    Holy Land Coordination in 2017: 50 years of occupation Copyright Catholic Church England and Wales The Holy Land Coordination, comprising representatives of episcopal conferences from various countries of the world, was established at the invitation of the Holy See at the end of the twentieth century in order to visit and support the local Christian communities of the Holy Land. This year, the visit of the Coordination took place January 14 to 19 preceded by two days of a group delegation in Gaza. Msgr. William Nolan, bishop of Galloway (Scotland), commenting on the difficulty of the situation in the Gaza Strip with the limitations to freedom, the still visible debris and few prospects, noted that "in this situation the actions of the local Christian community acquires social relevance, through schools, a hospital, with the material help of many benefactors ", thereby supporting the solidarity work that many carry forward for the entire population starting with the small Christian community. The general program of the Coordination began on the eve of the World Day of Migrants and Refugees celebrated by Msgr. Pierbattista Pizzaballa in St. Anthony's church in Jaffa. The words of the Apostolic Administrator of the Latin Patriarchate, referring to the tens of thousands of Christian migrants in the territory of Israel were particularly poignant: "You are an integral part of our Church in the Holy Land. You are a sign of the beauty, diversity and universality of the Church. " This year the Coordination’s program was underpinned by the 50 years of occupation.
