OPPRESSION: Fear merchants Shanghai their losses!

The plight of converts to Christianity in Muslim countries is well known. What is less known is the plight of Muslim converts to Christianity in Western Europe. Last week Dutch television broadcast a documentary which shows how former Muslims in the Netherlands are frequent victims of intimidation and violence.
Organized or unprovoked violence against one group by another group (or on behalf of another group) is rooted deeply in fear, intended to intimidate a group's and its member's views ... to coerce actions and conform attitudes consistent with those of the attackers.

An ancillary objective is to intimidate those who might find comfort in the actions and attitudes of the victims before the attack.

The attacks in the BJ article are clearly Cristophobic with the intent of spreading fear of becoming a Christian and fear of Christianity itself.
