Christian books, and Christian tapes, than all the other

Bibles in more languages than any other country in the

Peter Hammond also relates his eyewitness account
of the Communist war against Christians in Africa:

When I was first called up to do my military duty in
the South African Defense Force, back in 1979, we came
across atrocities in South West Africa and Angola.
SWAPO, the South West African Peoples Organization,
the terrorist group backed by the Soviets, and funded by
the World Council of Churches, has been involved in war
to try and overthrow Mozambique for the last 20 years.
In that time they've killed 10,000 civilians, largely
through land mines.

We, as soldiers, had to sift through the wreckage of
vehicles blown up by land mines, and we had to put the
bodies into body bags. We had to sift through villages
burned to the ground, and take the charred remains, the
corpses of the people, and put them in body bags.

When we were involved in operations in Angola, we
used to seek out the churches in the villages. We would
go into a village and say, "Where is the church?" and
every time the people would point to a burnt out place
and say, "That was the church. The Cubans burnt it
down." We would say, "Where is the pastor?" and the
people would say, "The Communists shot him.’ We
would say, "What can we do to help you?" and the
people would say, "Biblia, Biblia, — Bibles." Starving,
hungry, thin people asked for Bibles as their first priority.
