Does anyone care?

Franklin Graham has been caring about this for years AND he has been helping the people there AND he has been enlisting others to help him.

FRANKLIN GRAHAM FACED MILITANT ISLAM IN SUDAN RELIEF WORK

Islam is a religion whose beliefs essentially reflect the faith and laws of 7th century Arabia, out of which the religion emerged. In most Islamic states, the religion is uncompromising toward other faiths and harsh penalties can be imposed for conversion or proselytizing. With the exception of democratic states, in most Islamic countries hostility towards Christianity is common and often brutal.

Franklin Graham’s international relief ministry, Samaritan’s Purse, has been working in southern Sudan, where Mr. Graham has experienced Islamic persecution firsthand. The ministry reports, “Christian women and children have been nailed to trees with iron spikes. Those who escape that atrocity may face slaughter, being burned alive, or enslavement.”

Samaritan’s Purse operates a hospital in Sudan that has served more than 100,000 people — both Christians and Muslims — despite being subjected to seven bombing attacks by the Sudanese government. Graham says that America and the rest of the world have an obligation to get involved to end the ongoing butchery by the Khartoum regime. Two million people—mostly from the Christian south—have been killed in the ongoing civil war and genocide.
