If they don't like calling it 'genocide' they can call it obamacare.

Must be difficult to stroke Islam while accusing it of persecution.

There’s no hope for my Government, they’re as cowardly as the rest of them.

ISIS has declared war on Christians, they state they want to wipe out Christianity....this therefore is Genocide.

Baroness Idiot is saying she’s not sure if they want to eradicate them all.

What doesn’t she understand that they have stated they want to wipe out Christianity? Wipe out = eradicate = Genocide.

It’s not rocket science.

Lucky her - who has time to reflect. In the meantime, people are dying.

The Barroness has her head up her considerable ass! I just now understand fully that those who left England for America were the last morally competent people that were left there.

Barack Obama (D-Islamist) said that it was just a response to the xenophobia of Christians during the Crusades.

They refuse to use the word “genocide” in respect of the crimes of international Communism, the international eugenics program, the international homosexualization of the world program, and rampant abortion and the business of selling of baby heads, hearts, and other parts right here in America. Progressives are still covering up their hatred of the Lord, hatred of His image bearers, hatred of all people in general, hatred of the created order, hatred of traditional Western/American civilization, and hatred of the Cross of Christ.

Before everyone jumps on the Limeys from a great height, lets step back a minute.

This is the Foreign Office, and the FO is notorious for this sort of wishy washy nonsense, as is the State Dept in the US.

Lets not forget that the British govt and PM have publicly on many occasions condemned ISIS as evil and psychopathic murderers. Lets not forget that the UK has sent around 200 SAS and SBS elite troops to hunt ISIS commanders and that the UK has also been a major part of the bombing of ISIS.
