US, Saudi-Backed Takfiris Destroy Virgin Mary Statue in Syria: Video

(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) -  Extremist terrorists belonging to al-Nusra front broke into homes in Yaaqoubiya in Syria's Idlib province, killed a Chrisitan man and destroyed a Virgin Mary statue.

Upon arrival at a house that had the statue of virgin Mary, Wahhabi cleric, Omar Gharba' carried the statue of the Virgin Mary after it was taken over by militants from the "Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant" (ISIL) and broke it by throwing it on the ground. He stated that he and his fellow Wahhabis won't tolerate any form of worship except strict Wahhabism of Saudi Arabia.

"God willing, Only God will be worshipped in the land of the Levant," the terrorist who destroyed the statue said, noting that "no other idol will be worshiped after these days . We won't accept but the religion of Allah and the Sunnah of our Prophet Mohammed bin Abdullah . "

Also, the takfiris show in another video martyr George Elias Mashaq , 25 years old, a Syrian Christian whom they killed in Aleppo.

His necklace has beside the Christian cross , the picture of the Syrian president Bashar al-Assad and the Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah because they believe that those are the people who are trying to protect him.

Foreign fighters from across the Arab world and beyond are playing an increasingly dominant role in the battle for control of Syria, which has emerged as an even more powerful magnet for takfiri volunteers than Iraq and Afghanistan were in the past decade.

Thousands of Arabs and other non-Syrian Muslims have streamed into Syria over the past two years to join in the fight.

The shelling and recent militant assaults on predominantly Christian towns in Syria have fueled fears among the country’s religious minorities about the growing role of terrorists and foreign militants fighting against the Syrian army.

Christians believe they are being targeted -- in part because of the anti-Christian sentiment among extremists and in part as punishment for what is seen as their support for President Bashar al-Assad and their country.

Christians make up about 10 percent of Syria's 23 million people.

Syria has been gripped by deadly unrest since 2011. According to reports, the Western powers and their regional allies -- especially Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey -- are supporting the militants operating inside Syria.
