We hear almost no statements from any world figures - including the Pope, whose statements supporting Christians in Muslim lands have been feeble at best - calling attention to the sufferings of these people.

This is sickening. I am ashamed that this can go on while we sit here doing nothing. Where is the outrage? We need to do something!
