Remember, Obama grew up in “moderate” Indonesia. Why doesn’t he ever address the vicious oppression, subjugation and supremacism of Islam in Muslim countries? Why is he constantly campaigning for Islam as a religion of peace? He is disingenuous and dangerous.

“Christian churches in Indonesia province to be closed over Muslim groups’ pressure,” By RT, October 17, 2015

Authorities in an Indonesian province in Northern Sumatra have decided to shut down several Christian churches just days after a church was burned down by a mob and clashes between Christian and Muslims broke out.

Local government in the conservative Aceh province, which has a Muslim majority, ordered 10 Christian churches to be closed down next week after a group of hardline Muslims demanded that they be shut, deeming the houses of worship to be illegal.

“Ten churches have been identified as not having proper permits and should be closed,” said Hambali Sinaga, head of the local chapter of the hardline group Islamic Defenders Front, as quoted by Reuters.

Aceh Province has been very hostile to Christians. I’m surprised that there were churches operating openly. We have friends who were working there as missionaries a few years ago and they had to be very circumspect.

ANOTHER church of DISARMED Christians destroyed by a Moslem mob.

To ask that question is to answer it.

You know exactly what Obama's response would be if asked that question: "The most effective way to deal with this issue is behind-the-scenes pressure which we are applying continually." It would be a lie, of course, but that would be his answer.
