Obama, Clinton, Democrats Denounce Attacks On ‘Easter Worshippers,’ Not ‘Christians’
Breitbart ^ | 4-22-2019 | Joel Pollak

Posted on 04/22/2019 6:26:20 AM PDT by blam

Former President Barack Obama, former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, and several other leading Democrats denounced terror attacks on what they called “Easter worshippers” — not Christians — Sunday in Sri Lanka.

Suicide bombers murdered nearly 300 people and wounded 500 more in attacks on three churches, three hotels, and a housing complex. Many were killed as they attended Mass for Easter Sunday. The government reportedly suspects that the bombers, all Sri Lankans, were members of “a domestic Islamist terror group named National Thowfeek Jamaath.”

Yet Obama, Clinton, and other Democrats — including 2020 presidential contender Julián Castro — could not bring themselves to identify the victims of the attacks as “Christians,” calling them “Easter worshippers” instead in eerily similar responses:

During Obama’s eight years as president, Obama — and Clinton, who served as his first Secretary of State — drew criticism for his reluctance to identify radical Islam as the source of many terror attacks.

In an address to the National Prayer Breakfast in 2015, Obama attempted to draw a moral equivalence between the terror and torture used by the so-called “Islamic State” (or ISIS), and medieval Christianity. He admonished Americans not to “get on our high horse” about radical Islam, since “people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ” centuries ago.

“Easter worshipper”?

I’ve never heard that term, but the DNC and the media coordinated to decide on which term to use, because they are afraid to say, “Christian.”

2 of those people who got the memo were Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

“Easter Worshiper” is the new ‘undocumented migrant’ because to admit when Jihadists murder Christians is “Islamophobia”

The Kenyan from Indonesia was never a Christian.
He went to a church run by a pastor who preached hate.

He is a very dark and hateful soul. To him, if you’re not black or muzzie, you’re worthless.

Just think, we get to pay for this bastards’ lively hood for the next 30 years.

Make no mistake.

The Crusades were a counter attack and after being ruled for 700 years by the Moslems, Spain and Italy had a coming out party of sorts, granting Chris Columbus the monies, men and ships required to find an Ocean route around The Silk Road, which was controlled by Moslems and at the time the only way to reach China and other Eastern peoples

So, FO Obama, you fraud

Exactly. I emailed Mike Gallagher and told him that a couple of years ago I was feeling suicidal and I went to go see my priest. and he told me Julie it’s the evil one who’s putting these thoughts in your head and that’s exactly what’s happening now with the refusal to call a spade a spade say it was attack against Christians.
Ok

Imagine, and it's not hard, if Christians had blown up a Mosque in Sri Lanka killing 200 people. What would be the reaction of the media, Obama, and Hillary?

Another thought: let's hear comments of condemnation of radical Islam by the Muslim members of Congress. Any chance of that happening? I think not.

Uh ... do you know of any OTHER religion that celebrates the Risen Christ except Christianity?

Wouldn’t “Easter worshippers” imply “Christians”

As I said on Facebook, we CHRISTIANS don’t worship Eostre, the ancient goddess of spring.
