Congressman Calls It Genocide

It's the word nobody wants to say because when you say it you kinda' have to do something about it.CNS News:

Rep. Frank Wolf (R-Va.) accused the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) of genocide for “systematically targeting Christians and other religious minorities in Iraq for extinction” during an impassioned speech on the House floor Tuesday.Wolf – who earned an international reputation as a champion of human rights for his humanitarian efforts in China, Tibet, Sudan, Afghanistan and other countries during his 34 years in Congress - told his House colleagues that “I believe that what is happening to the Christian community in Iraq is genocide. I also believe it is ‘a crime against humanity’.”"Last Thursday, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, more commonly referred to as ISIS, gave the few remaining Christians in Mosul until Saturday to leave or be killed,” Wolf said.He added that "on June 16th, for the first time in 1,600 years, there was no Mass said in Mosul." Prior to the U.S. invasion in 2003, some 130,000 Christians lived in Mosul, where the Prophet Jonah is believed to be buried. However, only 2,000 are estimated to remain there today.

I truly believe that there's a perfect storm here of radical Muslims hating Christians and secular Westerns whose animosity towards Christianity is so complete that they can't imagine a situation where the Christians are not to blame. That's why we often read stories about "skirmishes" between Christians and Muslims which in reality consist of Muslims killing Christians and burning their houses.It's a shame we didn't send American troops in to Iraq years ago.
