The U.S. & Christian Persecution -Obama Does Nothing to Protect Christians & Other Minorities in the Muslim World.
Raymond Ibrahim / National Review
Prominent indicators confirm that the U.S. is the chief facilitator of the persecution of Christians around the world today.
According to the recently released 2014 World Watch List, which ranks the 50 nations where Christians are most persecuted, Syria is the third worst nation in the world in which to be Christian, Iraq is fourth, Afghanistan fifth, and Libya 13th. All four countries receive the strongest designation, “extreme persecution” (other designations are “severe,” “moderate,” and “sparse” persecution).
Aside from being so closely and harshly ranked, these four nations have something else in common: heavy U.S. involvement. Three — Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya — were “liberated” thanks to U.S. forces, while in the fourth, Syria, the U.S. is actively sponsoring “freedom fighters” against the regime, many of whom would be better labeled “terrorists.”
The Syrian situation alone indicts U.S. foreign policy. According to Reuters:
Open Doors, a non-denominational group supporting persecuted Christians worldwide, said on Wednesday it had documented 2,123 “martyr” killings, compared with 1,201 in 2012. There were 1,213 such deaths in Syria alone last year, it said. “This is a very minimal count based on what has been reported in the media and we can confirm,” said Frans Veerman, head of research for Open Doors. Estimates by other Christian groups put the annual figure as high as 8,000.
While most Americans are shielded from the true nature of the war by the U.S. media’s reluctance to report on it, Arabic media, websites, and activists daily report and document atrocity after atrocity — beheadings and bombed churches, abducted nuns, Christians slaughtered for refusing to convert to Islam, and countless abducted for ransom or rape — at the hands of those whom the U.S. supports.
It’s enough to point out that “the largest massacre of Christians in Syria,” to quote a top religious leader, was left wholly unreported by any major U.S. news network.

Whistler Blowers, Insiders
Why do the religious feel they need any protection when they are the ones guilty of being odiously arrogant claiming knowledge of the unknowable, and are responsible for more misery and deaths than any other group of people?
Persecution is an age old whine of the religious, usually right after they’ve been vilifying some poor innocent bystander whose had the bald face nerve to tell em to eff off.
Your belief in imaginary beings based on dark age fiction, has no more special status that it needs protecting, than say a belief that Puff the Magic Dragon did it. It’s nothing but egoism to expect other people to respect and protect you from your own idiocy and vile spiteful attacks on other people.
I suppose if this Reporter could find a way to blame the Roman persecution of Christians on the
President he would. Christians have always been persecuted and Jesus said to expect it.
Christians also have plenty of blood on their hands to atone for.
