Christian Persecution Reaches Global Historic High, Thanks to Rise of Radical Islam
Breitbart ^ | 14 Jan 2016 | Donna Rachel Edmunds

Christian persecution is at an historic high thanks to global rise of religious fundamentalism, most notably by radical Islam, Christian charity Open Doors has found. Persecution has seen the biggest rise in countries such as Pakistan and Eritrea where radical Islam is on the rise, but North Korea still tops the list with its systematic oppression of Christians.

More than 100 million Christians are being persecuted globally, according to the 2016 Open Doors World Watch List, and more than 80 percent of that persecution is down to religious fundamentalism of some kind.

There is genocide against Christians in the middle east and it is spreading to Europe and Africa. The MSM are covering this up. The story needs to be told.

Thanks to Rise of Radical Islam
If Obama, Hillary, and other don't think moderate Muslims exists and won't use the word "radical" we should stop using the term "Radical Islam". I don't often agree with Obama, but if he insists that all Muslims want to kill us rather than just a "radical" segment of Muslims, I'll accept it.

Christians being murdered in the ME is NOT considered ‘cool’ to talk about.

The Christan slaughter in the ME was NOT brought up by Democrat OR GOPe elites at the State of the Union.

That's the hint Christians don't matter. Elites didn't talk about them....

If you bring up Christians or Jews being murdered YOU might be a racist... Please Check with the New York Times to see WHICH humans are worthy... Or the IRS will check you out... if you know what I mean.

Obama kept his word!

He brought “CHANGE” to the world, and he gave terrorists more “HOPE” than they have ever had before. He’s actually been far more effective in both areas than I expected. I thought his laziness would keep the damage lower than it turned out to be.
