ISIS Genocide Victims Do Not Include Christians, the State Department Is Poised to Rule
National Review ^ | 14 November 2015 | Nina Shea

A report by a renowned journalist states that Christians are to be excluded from an impending official United States government declaration of ISIS genocide. If true, it would reflect a familiar pattern within the administration of a politically correct bias that views Christians - even non-Western congregations such as those in Iraq and Syria - never as victims but always as Inquisition-style oppressors. (That a State Department genocide designation for ISIS may be imminent was acknowledged last week in congressional testimony, by Ambassador Anne Patterson, the assistant secretary of the State Department’s Near East Bureau.)

the snake department is an old-time liar outfit

as everyone in the rest of the world has realized for many years

the reality is the opposite, the Muslim murderers have declared open season on Christian people

as anyone with a radio or newspaper or TV knows

A Yazidi girl, fleeing the violence in the Iraqi town of Sinjar, rests at the Iraqi-Syrian border crossing last year.

ISIS openly declares its intention to wipe out the Yazidi.

I guess the point of this is so they can't claim asylum in the United States? Gotta keep those evil Christians out, Muslims only. How evil can 'our' government be?

If such a report denies the reality of Christian martyrdom, then I truly think it is time for all persons of Christian faith to declare a multi-million person demonstration day and turn out all over the country in front of courthouses and TV cameras declaring Obama and his administration to be liars and bigots.

If republicans win the presidency the first thing done should be to fire everyone at the State Department and then rebuildingit from the ground up.

Only problem is, this is part of a consistent pattern of supporting genocide against Christians that runs through the Clinton and Bush administrations. It did not start with Obama. It’s one of the reasons I see supporting Republicans as such a waste of time. At least until the rotten leadership is thoroughly rooted out and something actually _changes_.

The significance of this, according to the article, is that since Christians will no longer be deemed as ‘Genocide victims’ nations are under no obligation to protect them, nor do they have to accept them as political refugees- whereas if they were deemed as genocide victims, we would have3 an obligation to help them, protect the, restore their lost property, etc

This alleged proposed bill is apparently a preemptive ATTACK by our dear leader to defeat a bill in congress- a bipartisan bill, to classify Christians, Yardizis, and other religious groups as victims of genocide

I am simply stunned at the abject evil shown by this administration!

[[supporting genocide against Christians that runs through the Clinton and Bush administrations.]]

How exactly did they ‘support’ genocide there?
