Media Yawns, Ignores Worldwide Plight of Religious Persecution by Muslims

Judging by the happy grin on a young Barack Obama growing up in Indonesia, it’s not surprising that he would be sympathetic to Muslim culture but as president of the United States which is still over 80% Christian, he should be demonstrating some balance in that sympathy. This, however, is not much in evidence because the increasing persecution of Christians around the world by Muslim jihadists is being given short shrift by this administration and their lackeys in the press

Obama made sure to swiftly appoint Rashad Hussain as an ambassador to the Organization of the Islamic Conference in March. The OIC is not only a religious body but a highly discriminatory one, which espouses only “causes close to the hearts of over 1.5 billion Muslims” and safeguards “the true values of Islam and the Muslims.” Why should the United States feel compelled to have a representative there while we did not send one to the Conference on Religious Persecution of Christian Minorities held in the same month?

I am not aware of Muslims being subjected to the same persecution as shown in these pictures of a Nigerian massacre of women and children. (WARNING: graphic photos of dead children at the link.)

These Christians in three villages in a Nigerian community were shot and butchered in cold blood in the early hours of Sunday March 7, 2010 — simply because they were Christians.

(There will be an Interfaith Rally tomorrow at 5 p.m. in front of the Nigerian U.N. consulate, 828 Second Ave. at 44th St.. Further information here.)

One wonders if our ambassador to the Islamic world was brave enough to bring up the subject of Jihadist atrocities since 9/11 in 20 countries. As for the American media — forget about it.

When Obama bowed to the Saudi King, excuses were made that he thought this was protocol. Maybe it was a Freudian slip.
