Right now the only protector of Christians in the ME is Russia.

“mainstream Muslim activists have failed to fully confront extremists.”

They are so right about Obama and Jarrett.

Wise choice. Survival trumps allowing islam to wipe you out like our current government is doing to them. Trump and Putin could put a big dent in the islamo sickness that is spreading like wildfire.

Much better than this idiot from the Christian Post ...

>Trump claims he will “protect Christians.” We already have a Protector, and He is not Trump.

Right now Assad and Putin are doing a better job than anyone in the recent past.

I am not voting for Trump tomorrow, but I know this article is true.

Cruz put his foot in it last year when he addressed a gathering of ME Christians and just used the opportunity to promote Israel. Wrong thing to say to that particular group.

Though Muslims reject the radicals' tactics of terrorism and violence, arguing that they twist the true face of Islam,...

Does this mean the Muslims mentioned, reject Allah and Muhammed and the Caliphs following Muhammed, and 1400 years of history? - tom

This is not surprising, but very telling.

The world knows much more than your average American, and light-years more than your average 20-something college student (except maybe how to build a safe space)

You mean those people who are being beheaded and crucified by Muslims think it would be GOOD to have an American President who doesn’t promise to be on the side of the Muslim Brotherhood?!!??

What a bunch of anti-Muslim racists.

Trump should get the Russian, Armenian & Assyrian mafia to protect him when the globalists try to throw him in prison. He’ll make bail every time but they want to throw him to the wolves for a nights in prison.

I remember that interview. The Christian clerics were insulted by his remarks.

“Right now the only protector of Christians in the ME is Russia.”

Actually, Christians in Israel (generally Arab) are full citizens, have all the protections of all citizens, and have the highest level of education and income of any group in Israel. So much so that Christian Arabs have demanded (and received) the obligation to be be drafted into the IDF.

And I’ve personally dropped bombs on Islamists who were threatening Christians in certain immediately neighboring areas.

So I would opine Israel is certainly a protector of Christians in the ME.

They supposed Christians were advocating the destruction of Israel.

“Cruz put his foot in it last year when he addressed a gathering of ME Christians and just used the opportunity to promote Israel.”

I have NO CLUE what kind of advice Cruz is getting, but the LAST THING you tell a group of Christians is that Israel is the GREATEST. I hate to inform Cruz, but most Christians don’t mind co-existing with Israel, but they are FAR FROM BEING ZIONISTS.

If Cruz is so OUT OF TOUCH on this, one can only imagine what a NIGHTMARE he would be as a candidate this fall.

The US failed when Obama pulled us out too soon. With his policies the whole ME unraveled. He is the disaster. It lays squarely with him.

Thanks for posting this article. Rubio wants to oust Assad, which would result in the total genocide of Syrian Christians. Not to mention possibly starting WW3. Rubio is incredibly dangerous but there are many low-info voters who would happily vote for him.

Where did I mention Bush or Cheney? So, you STFU until you show me. Or apologize like a man for false accusing.

The neocons could care less about Middle Eastern Christians - I even seen some posters on here say words to that affect. To them ousting Assad is more important. Also, I assume they are hostile to Catholics and eastern Orthodox Christians at some level also.

Comment was directed not at you, but at the article, and in the underlying article it’s right there. One has to respond to a comment, not an article, so unfortunately you were caught in the cross fire, for which I apologize.
