Rep. Wolf from Virginia made a speech yesterday at the House of Representatives in which forewarned the country on the current genocide of Christians in Iraq. He stated:
Mr. Speaker, the international legal definition of the crime of genocide is found in article II of the 1948 Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Genocide.
It says:
Genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group, as such: killing members of the group; causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group; forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
I believe that what is happening to the Christian community in Iraq is genocide. I also believe that it is a “crime against humanity.”
Last Thursday, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, more commonly referred to as ISIS, gave the few remaining Christians in Mosul until Saturday to leave or be killed.
From The New York Times, it reads:
Some went on foot, their cars having been confiscated. Others rode bicycles or motor scooters. Few were able to take anything of value as militants seized their money and jewelry. Some–just a few because they were not healthy enough to flee–submitted to the demands that they convert to Islam to avoid being killed.
ISIS is systematically targeting Christians and other religious minorities in Iraq for extinction”, said Wolf.
Muslims get a pass. They can do whatever they want. They’re like transvestites in that regard.

Listened to Megyn Kelly tonight and Iraq asked our President last August for drone strikes against ISIS last August and again in January- our President used a basketball analogy when asked about it. People have been murdered by ISIS, Christians forced to leave their city of 2,000 years, a church burned that stood for 1600 years, and Obama refuses to drone ISIS...He could have stopped it all...It’s maddening.
A “lone Wolf” crying in the wilderness.
Obama is a combination of marxist and closet Moslem. Eric Holder is just a plain black racist. Kerry is totally incompetent, anti-Semitic and leftist/traitor.
Clapper, Brennan, McDonough, Powers and others are either incompetent, clueless or not concerned.
Christians in the Middle East are on their own and have been targetted for extremination or at least elimination from various countries, esp. Iraq, maybe Syria, Pakistan and Afghanistan (if there are any left). Let’s not forget Boko Harum’s anti-Christian jihad.
Meanwhile, Obama is on another fundraising tour and golf lesson quest. He really doesn’t give a shit about Christians, Jews, or the US for that matter.
IT IS TIME THAT JEWS, CHRISTIANS, KURDS, INDIA INDIANS, DRUZE AND OTHERS UNITE TO FIGHT OUR COMMON ENEMY, ISLAMIC JIHAD. IF NOT, THEY WILL WIN BY SHEAR NUMBERS.
We cannot count on our President or his advisors, State Dept. or even the Military leaders to do anything!
Ya think? So is Obama.
our so-called christian president says nothinbg, but he sure persecutes his ‘brothers’ here as much as his power and the courts will let him.
what christian wears a muslim ring with ‘there is no god but allah’ written on it in arabic?
Least of all our supposedly conservative Congress.

Fellow Muzzies they don't agree with fare no better.
Bump
Prayers for all Christians in the Middle East, especially in Iraq.
The last martyr dies soon. /Revelations
I do not for one moment believe that muslims are systematically targeting Christians.
That is a silly accusation.
Muzzies are mentally and emotionally incapable of doing anything systematically.
Perfectly described OBAMA OSAMA! I wonder if he ever partook in the Islamic delicacy of camel sex
American democrats are “Systematically Targeting Christians”
“Muslims get a pass. They can do whatever they want.”
One of Barack Hussein Obama’s working propositions.
Reinforce Hamas; Isolate Israel from international commerce, insofar as feasible.
BTW, have non-American commercial airlines continued to fly to and from Israel?
