Pope Condemns Indifference To Jihadist Atrocities Against Christians

April 4, 2015 at the Vatican Pope Francis condemned indifference and "complicit silence" to jihadist attacks on Christians as he presided over Easter ceremonies in the wake of a massacre of nearly 150 people at a Kenyan university by Shebab Islamists.

The leader of the world's 1.2 billion Catholics brought up the extremist persecution of Christians as the holiest ceremonies of the Church calendar reached a climax Sunday, when believers celebrate the resurrection of Jesus.

The Islamists behind Thursday's university attack that shocked Kenya are reported to have separated out their victims into Muslims and non-Muslims, before killing the Christians.

"Today we see our brothers persecuted, decapitated, crucified for their faith in you, under our eyes and often with our complicit silence," the pope said after the traditional Via Crucis (Way of the Cross) procession through Rome on Friday, which recreates Christ's last hours before he was crucified.

Where’s the Muslim outrage? Beyond Obama, none are saying anything. And at that, Obama did not acknowledge the Islamic Al-Shabab were Muslim affiliates of al Qaeda.

You ask: “About time SOMEBODY said SOMETHING!”

Somebody has. Perhaps the question is: “Why hasn’t any one ELSE been saying something all this time?”
The Pope is a bit late -

in 2012

The reason ‘O’bummer hates Putin the most is this: ]

Obama even went to Russia - without meeting with Putin - to meet with Russian Gays.

I pray we get a leader who protects US like this.

Obama is NOT indifferent! He is aiding the muslim terrorists and probably passing out candies in the white hut for every Christian life that is taken by these pigs.

.....Not realizing that the more the Christians are attacked, the more seeds are planted for new Christian believers. They are planting the seeds of their own defeat.

Obama isn't indifferent to the genocide against Christians. His loyalty is with those who are doing the killing.
