Evangelist Franklin Graham said allowing tens of thousands of Muslim refugees into the United States, as President Barack Obama wants, could mean attacks on Christians in the country just as they are being targeted elsewhere, pointing to the killing of a Christian priest in Normandy, France, last week.

“President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and some other politicians want to allow tens of thousands of Muslim refugees into this country. A few days ago two Muslim men went into a Catholic Church in France in the name of ISIS and brutally slit the throat of an 85-year-old priest,” Graham, president of Samaritan’s Purse and Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, wrote in a Facebook post.

“The self-proclaimed ISIS soldiers shouted ‘Allahu Akbar’ as they ran from the church,” Graham pointed out, adding, “Unless something is done, it’s just a matter of time before we see this happen here in the United States.”

Hamel’s parish, the Church of the Gambetta in the French town of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, had donated land to Muslims to build a mosque, a senior Catholic cleric said last week, days after the priest was killed July 26 by supporters of the Islamic State terror group, also known as ISIS, ISIL or Daesh and which operates from Iraq and Syria.

In his Facebook post, Graham included a link to an article published in New York Post, titled “We have failed to protect Christians from Islamic terror.”

“Our tolerance for Islam’s intolerance is the greatest weapon these blood-cult terrorists have,” the article states.
