Those that don't know history are bound to repeat it.
The Japanese pretty much did the same thing in China in the late 1930's. Slaughtered Hundreds of Thousands by Beheadings, Burning Alive and Bayoneting Babies. There are whole web articles on it out there under Japanese War crimes.

The Obama regime didn't even call them Christians. They were "Egyptians".
This is almost worthy of a Saturday Night Live skit.

That's the thing that just infuriates me. I know myself and many other Christians feel frustration because all you hear about from the White House is the hate, bigotry and misunderstanding of gays, peace loving Muslims, illegal aliens and some segments of the African American community. What you don't hear from the White House is that same compassion and concern for the thousands of people around the world that are being systematically butchered, slaughtered, murdered, executed, etc., (insert the appropriate word) precisely because they are Christians. Many of those being tortured and killed also happen to be civilian women and children. The POTUS goes out of his way to NOT mention anything specific with regard to Christianity with the exception of a negative slant of the freegin' Crusades that happened over a millennia ago. This is how sad things have gotten: I'll settle for just an acknowledgment and condemnation from the POTUS of the hate and bigotry against Christians that is at an all time high in this country and throughout the world. Have a plan to deal with it? Another matter. Just admit the truth...for once!

Has he even proposed holding an emergency joint meeting of NATO or UN...at least act like a leader and convene our allies.
Oh hell no....he is too worried about Netanyahu making a speech in front of Congress and his next tee time.
He is no leader.....he has never lead anything.....nothing. America voted in a follower.

It sounds like "leading from behind" isn't working for you.

Blame Karl Rove for the anti Chritianity movement. He politicized the church and made it a GOTV effort.

GOTV? Get Out The Vote?
You mean like the Democratic National Committee has been doing for close to 30 years in the black community?

Because politicizing the Church is so much worse than beheadings and burning alive.

Karl Rove is why ISIS beheaded 21 Egyptian Christians? Really? How many of the killers do you think have ever heard of Karl Rove?

No owl, a poster above mentioned how Christians are being persecuted. As soon as they entered the political arena they became a target.

Right. There's nothing wrong with the reverends King, Jackson, or Sharpton. But all hell breaks loose when Pat Robertson or Mike Huckabee get involved in politics because they're going to create a "theocracy".

Love it when Libs have to fall back on blaming Bush or Rowe when they are bankrupt with any other response.

Christians should not be immune from the political arena, and quite frankly, we should have a target on our backs if we are doing what we believe to be true because the world says otherwise. My argument is focused on the heinous acts committed specifically against Christians and the POTUS lack of acknowledgement of these facts. Jimmy Swaggart, Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell this is not. We're talking about the systematic elimination of a group because of the religion that they practice. Dismembering children is beyond human decency and I can only imagine what the POTUS would say publicly if this was done to one of the "protected" groups he supports.

My comment was to UC regarding here at home. I think you guys are making a big to do about the 21. They are killing EVERYBODY over there not a Sunni Muslim. Read that Atlantic article.
