While the
deaths of innocent Palestinians who were used as human shields in Gaza are
being lamented, much of the world is meeting the inhumane slaughter of
Christians with near triviality. While demonstrations in Europe, America and
the United Nations point their finger at Israel for defending itself against
Hamas, the Middle East and Central Africa are losing entire communities of
Christians.
In Africa,
Islamic Terrorists have kidnapped and killed hundreds of Christians, and a half
million Christians Arabs have been forced from Syria. Meanwhile, too few media
outlets travel to Iraq to cover the Nazi-like wave of terror that is taking
power, while the United Nations and its member’s leaders are concentrating on
other matters of little consequence. Furthermore, where are the celebrities and
rock stars? Does not the slaughter of Christians seem to activate their self-insolated
social web?
The Islamic
state, is not just a loose group of fanatic Islamic terrorists, but a military
force that needs to be reckoned with. To deal with it properly all military
options must be on the table. The President must take a hands- off policy when
it comes to strategy and tactics. An airstrike at Obama’s discretion hamstrings
field commanders and emboldens those Islamic terrorists we wish to destroy.
Does not the president realize that Islamic jihadists truly excels in its
butchery? Some say that it “rivals the
death orgies of the Middle-Ages.” The Church in particular must cease remaining
silent in the wake of Christian persecution. By Church, I mean all Christians,
regardless of denomination. If you believe the Bible and possess a moral and
ethical core, remain silent no more.
