Pressure is mounting on the Obama administration to take action following a unanimous Congressional vote Monday approving a resolution to designate the persecution of Christians and other minorities in the Mid East by the Islamic State as “genocide.”
The resolution, which passed in the House in a 383-0 vote, comes ahead of a March 17 deadline requiring Secretary of State John Kerry to announce a final decision.
The designation would legally categorize the targeting, torture, uprooting and slaughtering of Christians, Yazidis and Kurds as "genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity."
For the executive branch to officially take a position on such a determination, however, entails a more detailed legal review, requiring Sec. Kerry and his legal advisors to determine whether the treatment of Christians and others meets the definition of “genocide,” which according to the United Nations Convention is "acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group."

Dave, if Trump becomes President, I truly hope he follows through on all of his campaign promises. In the meantime, I would caution everyone to wait for those chickens to hatch before claiming them as facts.
Not even Ronald Reagan was able to keep all of his campaign promises. And he is the greatest President in my long lifetime, and much longer.
The no shows were fairly equally distributed between the two wings of the Uniparty.
