Zanzibar Jihad: Muslims Kidnap, Force Christian Girls to Convert - Sean Hannity Discussion
Young Christian girls are being abducted, forced to convert to Islam and, in some cases, shipped to parts of the Islamic world. Flora Davidson knows how it feels to have a child disappear. "I looked everywhere for her, but I could not find her.
Even the police gave up looking for her," Flora said.In July 2004, Flora's 14-year-old Christian daughter Joyce was kidnapped by members of UAMSHO, a radical Muslim group on the island.
"I was told that from this day on, I would not be going back home to my family. You will become a Muslim," Joyce said.
Her kidnapper was Mariam, a 45-year-old Muslim woman. Mariam refused to talk to CBN News on camera, but she insisted that Joyce had voluntarily become a Muslim.
Joyce: First, they told me to change my religion.
CBN News: Did you want to become a Muslim?Joyce: No.CBN News: Were you forced?
Joyce: Yes.
CBN News: So, for three days your mother was looking for you?
Joyce: Yes. I was forced to wear Islamic dresses that covered my entire body.
CBN News: So they wanted to conceal your identity?
Joyce: Yes, so that my mother could not know me {recognize} me.And for a while, it worked -- until local police and Joyce's mother were tipped off that she had been shipped to the mainland city of Dar-es-salaam.
Authorities found Joyce there and sent her on a boat back home.
"So I went with several police officers to the docks to find her,” Flora recalled. “We waited, but there was no sign of Joyce. Almost everyone was off the boat. The police even got tired of looking and left. But then suddenly, I saw this small girl.
"The small girl was completely veiled, so that at first glance her own mother did not recognize her.
But then the woman saw something. Flora said, "I noticed her legs and the way she walked, and immediately I knew that this was my daughter under that veil.
I walked up to her and lifted her veil, and there she was! My daughter -- I had found her!"
Yet it was only the beginning of her nightmare.
Joyce: One of the other kidnappers, Mohammed, told me that wherever I will go, they would find me, and that I would eventually come back to their side {faith}.
I will remember him forever, what he did to me.
CBN News: They would track you do down anywhere anything?
Joyce: Yes.Four days after she was rescued, Joyce was kidnapped again by the same group. This time, she landed in the hands of Sheikh Azzani Khalid Hamdan.
