The worst Christian massacrecomplete with mass graves, tortured-to-death women and children, and destroyed churchesrecently took place in Syria, at the hands of the U.S.-supported jihadi rebels; and the U.S. government and its mainstream media mouthpiece are, as usual, silent (that is, when not actively trying to minimize matters).
The massacre took place in Sadad, an ancient Syriac Orthodox Christian habitation, so old as to be mentioned in the Old Testament. Most of the regions inhabitants are poor, as Sadad is situated in the remote desert between Homs and Damascus (desert regions, till now, apparently the only places Syrias Christians could feel secure; 600 Christian families had earlier fled there for sanctuary from the jihad, only to be followed by it).
In late October, the U.S-supported opposition invaded and occupied Sadad for over a week, till ousted by the nations military. Among other atrocities, 45 Christiansincluding women and childrenwere killed, several tortured to death; Sadads 14 churches, some ancient, were ransacked and destroyed; the bodies of six people from one family, ranging from ages 16 to 90, were found at the bottom of a well (an increasingly common fate for subhuman Christians).
The jihadis even made a graphic video (with English subtitles) of those whom they massacred, while shouting Islams victory-cry, Allahu Akbar (which John McCain equates to a Christian saying thank God). Another video, made after Sadad was liberated shows more graphic atrocities.
Here are the words of Archbishop Selwanos Boutros Alnemeh, Syriac Orthodox Metropolitan of Homs and Hama (another detailed account, with pictures, appears here):

Bold words from a plant.
History has a way of repeating itself.
The world is out of control because there are evil forces in power in the West.
Things change.
