As angry Muslim rioters sent Christians to a martyr's death during last month's riots over cartoons depicting Muhammad, leftist-led Christian groups in the West chose to console the murderers.
With sad predictability, many left-leaning church groups such as the National Council of Churches and the World Council of Churches responded with indignation about the Danish newspaper's publication of the cartoons -- with nary a word about their persecuted co-religionists.
The National Council of Churches (NCC) of the U.S.A. reacted by standing in "solidarity" with U.S. Islamic groups, who "exercised disciplined restraint," i.e., by not rioting or killing Americans over the cartoons.

"But Western church officials who denounced the cartoons seemed far more concerned about burnishing their multiculturalist credentials than protecting besieged Christians living under Islam. There is little to no record of specific concern about these vulnerable Christians on the part of such groups as the U.S. National Council of Churches or the World Council of Churches.
For left-leaning Western prelates living in New York or Geneva, writing press releases expressing irritation over offensive cartoons is far more appealing than identifying with endangered Christians living under Islam."
In similar fashion the NCC and WCC have been silent regarding the fate of Rahman in Afghanistan.
