Why Can't White House Just Say ISIS Beheaded Christians?
Investor's Business Daily ^ | February 17, 2015 | IBD EDITORIALS

Posted on 02/17/2015 3:38:48 PM PST by raptor22

errorism: As in Paris, where the White House insists four Jews in a kosher market were randomly selected for slaughter, the statement condemning IS beheading 21 Egyptians omits a key fact: all were Christians.

Speaking of the Chapel Hill, N.C., murder of three Muslims, President Obama, as his FBI began an investigation into whether it was a "hate crime," issued a statement saying that "no one in the United States of America should ever be targeted because of who they are, what they look like or how they worship."

Indeed not. Yet, we could find no such sentiment or statement by Obama condemning as a religiously motivated hate crime in the September 2014 beheading of an Oklahoma Christian woman by a former co-worker for not heeding his demand to convert to Islam or die.

Dare we say it depends on whose ox is being gored? Obama — who apologized to the United Nations after the Benghazi terrorist attack, saying a video offensive to Muslims prompted it — also said, "The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam."

That declaration would seem to include the staff of the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, who were accused of doing just that before a terrorist attack killed eight journalists. The massacre at Fort Hood was "workplace violence,"not a jihad terrorist attack by Maj. Nidal Hasan against Western "crusaders."

The lives of the four Jews killed in a kosher market in Paris were dismissed by Obama as "a bunch of folks in a deli" shot "randomly" as they happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Detect a pattern here?

I have swung over to the position holding the imbecile holding the Presidency is in reality a Muslim. Being charitable it could be argued that they really believe that words are things; i.e. if they don’t call it a Muslim it is not a Muslim, if they don’t say Jihad then there is not a Jihad; etc. etc.

And Al Qaeda becomes ISIS because Hussein said Al Qaeda was defeated so there’s no possible way ISIS is Al Qaeda.

I just googled “Christian lives matter” and found virtually nothing.

So, my new mantra (and tag line) will be:

CHRISTIAN LIVES MATTER!!!!!!

Perhaps it’ll take hold.

I think so, but our government keeps telling us no.

I was watching a video today of Egypt’s president who showed up at St. Mark’s church to address the Christians on christmas. He is trying to down play the non-religious perspective by telling the Copts that everybody in Egypt is Egyptian regardless of their religion. Here’s a youtube link:

With that in mind, it looks to me like the resident in chief is using it as an excuse to deny any and all religious associations as motive for murder.

It is a part of Obama’s ideology - burned into his brain - that the locus of all evil in the universe is right-wing-ism - white America, racists, gun-lovers, homophobes, etc etc etc - to admit that any group outside this collection of bogymen is capable of such savagery is to admit that he and all those who agree with him are somehow wrong and don’t have all the answers, and when your whole self-image is built on how intelligent you are, that would be to destroy him......

Obama’s a muzz. At the very least he is a muzz sympathizer and enabler.

Why would the left care? They sure exploit sucking babies out of the mothers’ wombs - so, why should this bother them?

I never noticed before how much The Won looks like Whoopi Goldberg. Must be his eyes that look different, cause when you cover them up, he’s the spitting image.
