You are right...NOTHING was done by this Administration for five years in terms of recognizing BocoHarem as Islamic terrorists and alQaeda sympathizers. IF the early recognition of the the black, African muslims by the Adm as terrorists had been done, and had resources been used to stamp out that terror threat, this “brilliant” campaign would be moot.
Instead, prior to the kidnapping of the girls, unknown THOUSANDS of Nigerian Christians (or all ages and both genders) were killed. A virtual genocide IS occurring in Africa (and midEast) of Christians...while the Obama adm alternately wrings it’s hands, trots out hashtags, or “stands with the Muslims should the political winds change” (p 261 PB Dreams of my Father).
Limbaugh has only pointed out the malfeasance of the Obama policy when it comes to radical Islamic terrorists.
YES! And the FIRST showing of this idiocy came from the Kerry State Dept itself when Jen Psaki (resplendent in cowering yellow) held up #Ukraine <- Pooty and the boys must have peed themselves laughing at that one.
blacks selling blacks into slavery ... can’t blamed on racism
MEMO to you: your posting trail on this thread does not stand you in good stead)
Big woop. I speak the truth. You have lied the last year and a half and have not been called on it. Why should you have all the fun?

You spelled Butt wrong.
Shouldn’t she be holding a sign saying “#BringBackKarlRove”?
Seriously, when our country starts to resort to Twitter hashtags to further our foreign policy agendas, we are toast. Twitter hashtags, Facebook posts and the like are for rallying support for a known cause.
We need Twitter to inform people of what’s going on in the world?
Who DOESNT want 200 girls saved from Muslim aggressors? That issue doesn’t (or shouldn’t) need Twitter or anything else to gain support. That’s not the question. The real question is what are we going to do about it (if anything)? And why didn’t we care so much when these same psychos torched 29 boys a few months ago?
Where was Twitter then? Where was the Moocher?
DEFINING IDEAS ¬- HOOVER INSTITUTION JOURNAL July 25, 2013
by Bruce Thornton (Research Fellow and W. Glenn Campbell and Rita Ricardo-Campbell National Fellow, 2009–10, 2010–11)
We are living through one of the largest persecutions of a religious group in history. Human Events Few people realize that we are today living through the largest persecution of Christians in history, worse even than the famous attacks under ancient Roman emperors like Diocletian and Nero. Estimates of the numbers of Christians under assault range from 100-200 million.
According to one estimate, a Christian is martyred every five minutes. And most of this persecution is taking place at the hands of Muslims. Of the top fifty countries persecuting Christians, forty-two have either a Muslim majority or have sizeable Muslim populations.
Human Events
The extent of this disaster, its origins, and the reasons why it has been met with a shrug by most of the Western media are the topics of Raymond Ibrahim’s Crucified Again.
Ibrahim is a Shillman Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center and an associate fellow of the Middle East Forum.
Fluent in Arabic, he has been tracking what he calls “one of the most dramatic stories” of our time in the reports and witnesses that appear in Arabic newspapers, news shows, and websites, but that rarely get translated into English or picked up by the Western press. What he documents in this meticulously researched and clearly argued book is a human rights disaster of monumental proportions.
In Crucified Again, Ibrahim performs two invaluable functions for educating people about the new “Great Persecution,” to use the label of the Roman war against Christians. First, he documents hundreds of specific examples from across the Muslim world. By doing so, he shows the extent of the persecution, and
Additionally, Ibrahim commemorates the forgotten victims, refusing to allow their suffering to be lost because of the indifference or inattention of the media and government officials.
Second, he provides a cogent explanation for why these attacks are concentrated in Muslim nations. In doing so, he corrects the delusional wishful thinking and apologetic spin that mars much of the current discussion of Islamic-inspired violence.
Ibrahim’s copious reports of violence against Christians range across the whole Muslim world, including countries such as Indonesia, which is frequently characterized as “moderate” and “tolerant.” Such attacks are so frequent because they result not just from the jihadists that some Westerners dismiss as “extremists,” but from mobs of ordinary people, and from government policy and laws that discriminate against Christians.
Rather than ad hoc reactions to local grievances, then, these attacks reveal a consistent ideology of hatred and contempt that transcends national, geographical, and ethnic differences.
In Afghanistan, for example, where American blood and treasure liberated Afghans from murderous fanatics, a court order in March 2010 led to the destruction of the last Christian church in that country. In Iraq, also free because of America’s sacrifice, half of the Christians have fled; in 2010, Our Lady of Salvation Church in Baghdad was bombed during mass, with fifty-eight killed and hundreds wounded.
In Kuwait, likewise, the beneficiary of American power, the Kuwait City Municipal Council rejected a permit for building a Greek Catholic church. A few years later, a member of parliament said he would submit a law to prohibit all church construction. A delegation of Kuwaitis was then sent to Saudi Arabia––which legally prohibits any Christian worship–– to consult with the Grand Mufti, the highest authority on Islamic law in the birthplace of Islam, the Arabian Peninsula.
The Mufti announced that it is “necessary to destroy all the churches of the region,” a statement ignored in the West until Ibrahim reported it. Imagine the media’s vehement outrage and condemnation if the Pope in Rome had called for the destruction of all the mosques in Italy. The absence of any Western condemnation or even reaction to the Mufti’s statement was stunning. Is there no limit to our tolerance of Islam?
Moreover, it is in Egypt––yet another beneficiary of American money and support–– that the harassment and murder of Christians are particularly intense. Partly this reflects the large number of Coptic Christians, the some sixteen million descendants of the Egyptian Christians who were conquered by Arab armies in 640 A.D.
Since the fall of Mubarak, numerous Coptic churches have been attacked by Muslim mobs. Most significant is the destruction of St. George’s church in Edfu in September 2011. Illustrating the continuity of mob violence with government policy, the chief of Edfu’s intelligence unit was observed directing the mob that destroyed the church.

Are there any pictures of Michelle pleading for the end of the slaughter of Christians by Muslims?
So shallow minded when it comes to these things, huh? Ever hear of diplomacy? Asking permission, that sort of thing?
You're wanting to send the troops into Nigeria and I'm the shallow minded one?
You are not speaking the truth….you are demonstrating your ignorance. Your assessment of Rush is no better than the lame stream media’s ignorant assessment.
Now, you called me a liar…..time for you to shut up or put up on that one.
You are trying to cause trouble. This is a daily thing. I don’t know what is wrong with you but I guess praying for you might work. It has worked for worse people then you I guess.
You are a phony, self righteous pharisee with limited mental abilities. And you cannot back up your lies.
You are a deranged stalker. I tried to leave you alone for hours but you insist on commenting. Once again, leave me alone. I have asked you hundreds of time but your crush on me is getting silly.
Live black foreign girls = good.
Aborted domestic black babies = good.
In Obama’s World it’s all good.
“Live black foreign girls = good. Aborted domestic black babies = good. In Obama’s World it’s all good.”
I don’t think Obama gives a hoot about those Nigerian girls; the group that grabbed them are his peeps. He’s simply trying to look presidential and relevant at a time it has become all too obvious that he is neither.
