Islam in action, and what is President Obama's response? Obama has completely abandoned the religious minorities that are being crushed. As the violence continues against non-Muslims under the sharia, part of Obama's anti-freedom foreign policy is to suppress the horror of what is happening under his watch. He has gone so far as to remove the Religious Freedom Section from the State Department's Human Rights reports.
The new human rights reports--purged of the sections that discuss the status of religious freedom in each of the countries covered--are also the human rights reports that include the period that covered the Arab Spring and its aftermath.
And here is the horrible reality. Nobody cares. The only matter of concern to the media and political elites in power is whether or not Muslims are offended or their feelings are hurt when the few media outlets that cover these things (such as myself) report these terrible atrocities. I have to go back and research whether the media was as kind to the Nazis at that time (before they started losing the war).
