By now, I’m sure you’ve all heard about Florida Pastor Terry Jones burning a Koran and the resulting outcry from fanatical Muslims and their Dhimmi Accomplices, the American Left.

What you’re not hearing about is vividly retold by Kenneth Lewis on christiannewstoday.com:

In Afghanistan where they protested Pastor Terry Jones for threatening to burn the Koran, Bibles are confiscated and burned like pieces of garbage. Anyone who acknowledges faith in Christ experiences intense persecution, including death. Persecution in Afghanistan normally comes from family members and local villagers, while Muslim police officers and government officials turn a blind eye and do nothing.

According to The Voice of the Martyrs, (VOM) a young man became a Christian and was banned from his family’s house. Local Radicals in Afghanistan beat another man severely when they found he was sharing Christ with others. Both of these two men remain firm in their faith.

An evangelist who was formerly Muslim was attacked by al Qaeda assassins, but they were unable to kill him. The attackers were later arrested by police. This same brother is still receiving death threats, but he boldly continues to evangelize.

Another believer led several friends to Christ, and two of them were killed for their conversion shortly afterward.

Persecution of Christians in Muslim nations are real. Missionaries put their lives on the line daily in the front lines in order to share the eternal life saving gospel to the lost souls in Afghanistan where the Muslim religion is distorted by al Qaeda assassins and local radicals.

And none of us have heard this news, from cns.com:

While the Obama administration cited human rights atrocities in Libya as part of the reason for U.S. and U.N. military intervention there, neither the State Department nor the United Nations have apparently condemned an outbreak of violence in western Ethiopia, led by Muslim radicals. Since early March two Christians have reportedly been killed, more than 3,000 displaced and at least 69 churches destroyed.

Also, leading human rights organizations including Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and Human Rights First appear not to have publicly condemned the attacks.

“Extremist Muslims killed two Christians, burnt 69 Christian churches, and destroyed 30 homes, leaving between 4,000 to 10,000 Christians displaced,” Jeremy Lim, International Christian Concern (ICC)’s regional manager for Southeast Asia, told CNSNews.com. ICC is a human rights group promoting religious freedom and assisting Christian victims of persecution.

According to Compass Direct News, which focuses on religious freedom issues, “38 of the churches burnt belonged to the Ethiopian Kale Hiwot, its Bible school building and two church office buildings, while 12 were Mekane Yesus buildings; six were Seventh-day Adventist structures; two were Muluwongel church buildings, and another belonged to a ‘Jesus Only’ congregation.” Kale Hiwot, Mekane Yesus and Muluwongel are evangelical denominations.

But the Main Stream Media made sure we heard about this:

At least eleven people were killed, including some United Nations officials, today in Afghanistan, apparently in response to Florida pastor Terry Jones burning the Koran last month, Afghan police and U.N. officials said.

The deaths followed a protest march in the northern Afghan city of Mazar-i-Sharif today against the Koran burning last month in which Jones supervised while another pastor, Wayne Sapp, soaked the Koran in kerosene and burned it after finding it “guilty” in a mock trial.

Police told ABC News the protest started peacefully but took a violent turn after a radical leader told those gathered that multiple Korans had been burned. In a fury, the people marched on the nearby U.N. compound despite police firing AK-47s into the air in hopes of subduing them.

Police eventually turned their weapons on the protestors, killing at least four, police said, before they were overtaken and had their guns stolen. Using the police weapons, the protestors killed four U.N. guards from Nepal and then three foreign workers in the U.N. building — a Norwegian, a Romanian and a Swede. An Afghan official said one man has been arrested for his role in allegedly masterminding the attack along with 19 others, according to a report by the Associated Press.

I would not have burned a Koran, and neither would most of you.  However, to blame any deaths on the burning of a Koran, is to negate any personal responsibility by Muslim Fanatics for the murders that they have committed.

Have Americans killed any Muslims for burning Bibles?

Heck, our own military burned a bunch of them in Afghanistan, so that our soldiers would not offend anyone by handing them a Bible.

It seems to me that it’s time for President Barack Hussein Obama and his State Department, run by Secretary Hillary Clinton, to replace their spines of Jello with those of steel.

Mr. President, you’ve  been shouting from the mountaintops, that you’re American, and a Christian,  through and through, and all of these theories that you are not an American, or a Christian, are just that.

Prove it.  Speak out against the atrocities being committed against Christians in Africa and the Middle East.

America’s waiting.
