A magazine that documents Christian persecution around the world. On the
front cover is a Christian who was hunted down and mutilated by Islamic
fanatics
The Top Ten List for countries trying to eradicate Christianity.
Disgracefully, the mainstream media rarely, if ever, cover this kind of
ethnic cleansing. One possible reason: anti-Christian bias among Western
elites and stealth Muslims like Barack Hussein Obama who never mention a
word about the violent persecution of Christians in Muslim countries.

It is more than a conspiracy of silence. It is a conspiracy of political
and media apathy. There is no political or journalistic will to continually
publicize and condemn religious persecution by extremist Muslims or Islamic
dictatorships. Members of the Western media are overwhelmingly secular, so
they often have a hard time even perceiving the religious root of
persecution.
This silence and apathy create an implied consent for religious
persecution.

Over the past year there have been several reports of Christians being
violently persecuted in the Middle East, Africa, and other Muslim nations.
Most were wire service stories, or reports from religious media outlets
like Catholic News Service.

There was little follow-up or editorial outrage over what is now being
called religious genocide, religious cleansing, or the next holocaust by
human rights and religious groups alarmed at the fast spreading
persecution.
The persecution, in some regions genocide, of Christians and other
religious groups is the most important international human rights issue
willfully ignored by the American media and our government.
Our self-proclaimed Christian President has not publicly addressed this
issue, nor have the supposed Christians in our legislature. Our Christian
Secretary of State has been mute.
But, they continue to dole out foreign, military, and humanitarian aid to
countries that practice or allow inhumane persecution. With the exception
of Newt Gingrich, the supposed Christian presidential candidates, who
blather about their faith, are silent on this issue.

*Some examples: *
- *In Egypt Coptic Christians are being persecuted and murdered. 100
thousand Christians fled Egypt since the Mubarek regime collapsed in what
the Egyptian Union of Human Rights is calling a “mass exodus.” Our
president helped depose Hosni Mubarek in the cause of freedom. *
- *In Iraq, where we shed our blood treasure allegedly for the cause of
freedom, Christians are being violently persecuted, murdered, and churches
are being bombed, as seen in the above photo.*
- *In the West Bank and Gaza, where Palestinians are in control,
Christians are being persecuted. Justus Reid Weiner of Hebrew University
claims 1,000 Palestinian Christians left the West Bank city of Bethlehem,
the historic birthplace of Jesus. Our government wants to negotiate with
people who persecute religion to supposedly bring peace, and that freedom
thing, to the region.*
- *In Pakistan it is illegal to convert to any religion but Islam. They
have a blasphemy law with the death penalty. We give foreign aid and
military assistance to Pakistan. Pakistan is a tenuous ally in the region.
*
- *CNN reported in Nigeria, 12,000 Christians and animists were killed
over the past decade in a religious purge. *
