Thankfully, foreign soldiers intervened and helped fight off the Muslims or else the massacre would have been far worse:
At least 23 people were killed in the Central African Republic (CAR) in an attack by the country's Muslim Seleka militia on Wednesday (12 October). The casualties included 13 refugees, who were stabbed or hacked to death, and 10 members from the rebel group who were put down by UN peacekeepers, officials said.
The central African nation has experienced chaos since early 2013 when the Seleka rebels toppled then-president François Bozize's government. The majority Christian "anti-Balaka" militias responded by attacking Muslims, setting off a cycle of violence.

Several people were also injured in the attack as hundreds of panicked villagers fled towards a UN base for protection.
"We were in the house when suddenly the Seleka arrived and set it on fire," said witness Marcelline Kanga, 40. "They killed my uncle and stabbed my brother to death right there."
Another witness, 48-year-old Yongon Samson, said he saw a body with the head sliced off as he was running for his life.(source)
The Central African Republic has seen a tremendous amount of fighting between Christians and Muslims. This violence, while heinous, is a part of life when dealing with Islam as Europe is beginning to learn again the hard way. Islam cannot ever live in peace with non-Muslims because it will always seek to dominate and destroy as it has no forgiveness, for as history shows it only knows violence and bloodshed.
