Muslims Kill Christians. White House, Media say “Meh”.

The Middle East is on fire. Revolution is in the air. The Muslim Brotherhood is stretching its spider-web of influence throughout the region…and Christians are being killed.

Over 65 Christians have been killed in attacks throughout the Muslim world in the last few months. What has the reaction of the Obama Administration and the Main Street Media Minions been? Nary a mumblin’ word.

For example…

Six innocent people were killed in a Christmas Day Catholic Church bombing on the island of Jolo,and, in the Philippines, Christmas Eve bombings in Nigeria killed at least 32. That was just part of a night of barbarism across the country that included three other churches attacked and six worshipers killed.  A New Year’s bombing at a Coptic Christian church in Alexandria, Egypt, killed 23 people and injured more than 100. Several New Year’s Eve bombings in Iraq left two dead and at least 13 wounded. And finally, an Egyptian Christian man and five Christian women were shot last month.

And, while these acts of Islamic Terroism are going on, humanitarian agencies have noticed the lack of response from the Obama Administration.

Nina Shea, director of the Hudson Institute’s Center for Religious Freedom, told FoxNews.com:

The lack of a policy response beyond sending condolences each time a church or Christians are targeted in some horrific act of violence like in Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria etc. is absolutely bewildering. This should be seen as not only a humanitarian issue, but a security issue.

Even when the White House issues a condolence statement, it seems to not be adequate, according to Shea.  She thinks that the condolence statements have come up short.

When the Obama administration first noted an Oct. 31 church bombing in Iraq, for example, according to her, the White House sent

…a general condolence to Iraqis that didn’t even mention the word Christian or churches — even though it was a packed Sunday worship service for Christians that was blown up.

That act of Islamic terrorism, claimed by an Al Qaeda-linked organization, left 58 people dead and at least 78 wounded. Iraq’s Christian minority was left reeling from the worst attack they ever experienced.

The media has not seemed to care, either.

According to Brent Bozell and the Media Research Center, CBS and ABC aired nothing on the Nigerian attacks, PBS had one measly “NewsHour” report, while NBC gave the story three very short acknowledgments on the morning of Dec. 27.

“CBS Evening News” long-past-perky anchor Katie Couric instead decided that the protests against the Ground Zero Mosque were more newsworthy, proclaiming sanctimonious that the “seething hatred” against Muslims in America was one of the “most disturbing stories to surface this year” during her New Year’s Eve Internet show (which 2 people probably watched).

While clueless Katie Couric was concerned about the rights of Muslims, 11 bombs went off near Christian homes in Baghdad, killing two people and wounding at least 13. And just minutes into the new year, the bombers in Alexandria struck.

According to Brent Bozell:

ABC aired nothing. CBS and NBC each aired one brief anchor read.

Libs, of course, disagree.

According to media analyst T.J. Walker (whoever he is):

Christians get massive, massive media coverage, way out of proportion to their importance. This is another case of an interest group developing the media strategy of ‘working the refs’. No matter how fair or generous your media coverage is, complain bitterly that you are being treated unfairly in the hopes of making reporters give you even more positive coverage just to avoid the headache of dealing with nonsense virulent criticism.

Bozell rightfully argues that exaggerated stories of so-called discrimination against Muslims, for instance, like a Florida pastor’s proposition to memorialize the 9/11 attacks with “Burn a Koran Day,” or a Seattle cartoonist’s decision to protest Comedy Central’s decision to censor an episode of “South Park” that depicted Muhammad in a bear costume, seem to draw a lot more air-time from the Liberal Main Stream Media:

It’s appalling that you’ve got a worldwide assault on Christianity in place, where every week there’s a reported attack on some Christian church somewhere by Muslim fanatics and no one’s covering it, but one idiot in Florida threatens to burn a Koran and everyone’s talking about it.

Like our Secretary of State, Madame Clinton, who opined about the Florida pastor’s “Burn a Koran Day” at a Council on Foreign Relations Event:

I am heartened by the clear, unequivocal condemnation of this disrespectful, disgraceful act that has come from American religious leaders of all faiths. It’s regrettable that a pastor in Gainesville, Fla., with a church of no more than 50 people can make this outrageous and distressful, disgraceful plan and get the world’s attention.

Obama , in a less than forceful response, said that the perpetrators of the Egypt attacks “were clearly targeting Christian worshippers” and “must be brought to justice for this barbaric and heinous act.” He also offered “any necessary assistance to the Government of Egypt in responding to it,” as well as to the Government of Nigeria in responding to its attacks.

I’m sure that statement terrified the Islamic perpetrators of these heinous acts….no, really.

    Mankind does nothing. Meanwhile, the old Christian world burns.
    All of you who understand & have read your history know, while in the past many Christians have not been perfect, we have now reacheda time where islam once again stifles religious freedom in a way once cursed upon us Christians for doing.
    As islam burns the ancient relics & peoples of Christendom, the White House remains silent.

    I know a managing editor of a city’s only newspaper. The guy is a far left loon, but actually believes that he is non-partisan, down the middle person. He honestly doesn’t see his extreme liberal bias.

    You don’t see this with conservatives. We know that we are to the right of the center and are proud of it.
