Hong Kong:
Crackdown on Christians
China’s Communist Party overlords are preparing to crackdown on Christians in Hong Kong. Recent articles published in CCP-controlled media have called out Catholic Cardinal Joseph Zen and Christian schools for promoting and supporting massive 2019-2020 extradition law protests.
After breaking international treaties and asserting authority over the democratic autonomous region, Communist China passed the brutal and totalitarian “National Security Law for Hong Kong”.
Now, one of the world’s foremost fearless Christian leaders has come under the microscope. What does this portend for the future of religious freedom in this desperate land? And, what does it portend for the whole world if Western leaders continue to cave to the rapacious demands of Communist China?
