Op-ed:
Deafening Silence of the Christian Kind
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

"But I say to you who hear, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you...”
- Luke 6:27-36

Their silence is indeed deafening...a roaring misplaced silence coupled with a feeling of emptiness now engulfing both Roman Catholicism and all of the other denominational Christian sects. And it's both sad and pitiful at the same time as it reeks of acquiescing and surrender to those who have always wished all we infidels dead.

And so it currently began with the Yzidi and moved on from there to the utter carnage in Africa with North Korea, Syria, Afghanistan, Iran, Yemen, India and Pakistan all added into the mix...with a smattering in Egypt thrown in for good or should I say bad measure...that is until President el-Sisi threw the Muslim Brotherhood out. And, no, I am not talking political turmoil here, I'm talking about the cries of Christians going unheard and unanswered... or worse...being deliberately ignored for the Christians being slaughtered in countries a half a world away are not the seemingly accepted and approved of brand of western-style “Christian tea.”

And then there's Sri Lanka...where now being reported is up to 350 mostly Catholics dead with more than 500 wounded as Catholic churches became the latest target of muslim... yes muslim...suicide bombers. Sri Lanka...where par for the course sees the media worrying more about reprisals against muslims than it cares about the Christian dead.

And when you add in said media's complacent silence after they report on any given church bombing or torching for maybe five or ten minutes, if even that, out of the 24/7 news cycle...when you add in that the media itself helped lead a major worldwide cry-fest when 50 muslims were slaughtered in a one-man isolated terror attack in New Zealand...it should raise but doesn't seem to raise any Christian ire that the media won't report on the number of incidents or the number of Christians killed since the rise of ISIS began in 1999.

By the way that number now stands at anywhere between the upper double-digit thousands to over one million depending on the news source one references, with 12 or more Christians being killed...being slaughtered...everyday. And these numbers alone leaves one to wonder why Christian voices...no matter their domination...have not united and collectively risen up to both vehemently condemn said deaths and make clear to the world that the slaughter of Christians and the placating of their killers must indeed stop.

There's strength in numbers after all, just as there is a collective silence within those same numbers especially when “turn the cheek” takes precedence over simple common sense. Stop them before they kill all of us should be Christendom's collective battle cry...with Chislam be damned.

And that killing started with the Yzidi when ISIS expelled them from their Northern Iraqi ancestral homeland with Yzidi women and young girls being forced into sexual slavery and with Yzidi men being killed by the thousand basically just for practicing their own form of Christianity. We also know about churches being burnt to the ground with parishioners locked inside throughout some of the countries of North Africa including Nigeria, Sudan, and the Central African Republic. And dare we forget how Christianity has been deemed the number one enemy of the state in North Korea; and how in Afghanistan no other religion except islam is constitutionally allowed to exist. And in Iran it's illegal to convert or even to preach Christianity for fear of death; while in Yemen, Pakistan and India, Christians face abject persecution on a daily basis. And where Christians were once protected...at least allowed to practice their faith...both ISIS and Iran's inroads into Syria have denied the remaining Christians even that.

And yet none of this even takes into account the number of churches vandalized, defiled and sometimes burned... at times resulting in deaths...both in Europe and here in the U.S. And except for the as expected cursory remarks made in passing by but a few in the media coupled with some also in passing words of sorrow spoken by priests, ministers and pastors...it all amounts to empty words for it's words without much needed condemnation followed by a promise of tangible actions. And the reason we don't hear much about those incidents is that the majority of the media, upon the lefts orders, diverts and deflects our attention to the mundane out of fear of offending let alone naming those we more than just suspect committed such actions.

Out of fear perhaps of their being next, but then there's also capitulation of sorts as Christendom's collective silence is indeed the white flag of surrender.

A true surrender of faith in fact for nowhere in the Holy Bible does it say for Christians to be led like lambs to the slaughter. And yet we see that happening more and more with each passing day as Christians in their silence are applying first century words to today's 21st century world. Matthew 5:43-45 states, “You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven.” And while those words are heartfelt and might have served the people well in ancient days...today they are but words pretty in concept yet foolish in today's reality. And when you digest those words as they are written, in today's world...a world dominated by islamic terrorism...the words reek of the surrender of Christianity to islam...a brutal and savage enemy unbeknownst in Jesus' and Matthew's days.

And while islamic terrorism surely does also visit those of the Jewish faith, especially in Europe and most especially in Israel, there is a great difference in how the Jewish people react...they never make excuses for those who commit such acts...they fight back. “An eye for an eye” is their calling card...you kill us we'll kill you...tenfold. And it seems to work very well for the simple fact that Israel still exists while being completely surrounded by those who wish them dead. Maybe it's time the Christians take a lesson or two from God's chosen people...their “blood brothers” the Jews.

And still more and more Christians are killed everyday by the same folks who wish Israel gone from the face of the map, yet today's Christians as a collective whole seem to do nothing but wallow in self pity while forgetting that in ages past fighting back was not only expected, but accepted and welcomed as the day's norm. Remember, the Crusaders did not “turn the other cheek”...they drew blood, they maimed and killed, all while reclaiming what was rightfully part of the faith, that is until new denominations of Christianity arose... denominations so fearful of picking up the sword that over time it led not just to mere complacency but to what became the abject surrender to what is called Chislam. 

Chislam...simply a hoped for form of bribery paid-in-full so that the enemy...so that the followers of islam...won't kill too many of those of the collective Christian faith.

So how's Chislam been working out for Christianity...not too well of course.

And to break it down into simple political terms...political terms that might be easier to understand for a few...think of Chislam as being the Democrat party and think of Christianity as being America's black community. The Democrat party has made so many promises to blacks over the years yet accomplishing little to nothing to improve what many (but not all) blacks perceive as their sorry lot in life. 

In other words, Chislam and the clergy who embrace it as well as those practitioners of it, also live in a world of empty promises...in this case promises of peace and understanding between Christians and muslims...between Christianity and islam....parallel the blacks belief that the Democrat party is the answer to all their woes. And yet neither the Democrats nor Chislam has delivered on promises made for the racial divide in America is wider today than in years past and Chislam has seen no end to the killing of Christians, in fact, just the opposite as the spilling of Christian blood increases by the day.

Increases by the day, and yet for the most part Christians seem unwilling to both name the enemy...it's islam...all of islam by the way...as well as to physically fight back... instead choosing prayers alone as their weapon of choice...refusing to accept that in today's world...a world that now amounts to a terrorist's playground...prayers will get one only so far. And when you couple that with some Christian sects now too busy being at war with each other...Catholicism v. Evangelical Christianity comes swiftly to mind...as they're too busy fighting over mere technicalities, tenets and nuances of faith...making it obvious to some that these folks would rather spend time casting doubt on each other's legitimacy as heirs to Christ's church then pick up the sword and staining it with their collective enemy's blood.

And in their refusing to understand that without a here and now battle and without the spilling of said enemy's blood there very well could be no church to come home to in the end. Islam will win, churches will fall, and the Christian dead will keep piling up all because the collective of Christendom simply refused to fight back. Sri Lanka should be the rallying cry for a new Crusade of sorts, for if it's not and it becomes yet another bloodbath unanswered, then Christianity's death will become the Christians fault...I truly wonder how God our Father will feel about that.

Op-ed:
Turning the Mediterranean Red

By: Diane Sori

 “I am appalled by the murder of Christians in Libya, a simply barbaric and inhumane act. My thoughts are with the families of those killed and the UK stands united with the Egyptian people during this period of mourning.”
- British Prime Minister David Cameron saying the 'word' that needed to be said upon hearing of the beheadings of the twenty-one Egyptian Coptic Christians

ISIS is flexing its muscle...ISIS is growing and getting more brazen as it moves closer to Europe and creeps ever slowly westward towards America.

Just days ago twenty-one Egyptian Coptic Christians were lined up in a row and beheaded in a mass execution for NO other reason than their faith alone. With this action ISIS has turned what was a war of dueling ideologies into a war based upon alluding to the Crusades...with the word 'crusade' now becoming ISIS' justification de-jour for doing what they do.

And doing what they do has now allowed ISIS to add the words 'Holy War' to their repertoire.

A repertoire that was made public at a Washington D.C. prayer breakfast by none other than ISIS' man in America...Barack HUSSEIN Obama...who brought up the Crusades as he damned Christianity...the very faith he professes to follow. Why bring up the Crusades at a gathering of men and women of faith...why bring up events of a thousand years ago when the enemy we face is a tangible here and now enemy NOT ghosts from centuries ago...why...because he is doing the bidding of those to whom his true allegiances lie.

And with Obama giving ISIS the Crusades to use as a shield to hide behind...just like they hide their faces behind scarfs when doing their vile deeds...they now relish in rubbing their ever-expanding reach into our faces as they happily advertise their savagery via YouTube videos for all to see...for all to fear.

But what of the twenty-one souls whose blood turned the Mediterranean red...the video ISIS released showing the beheadings was beyond the scope of comprehension of civilized men NOT just because of its raw savagery, but with the title of the video reading, “A Message Signed With Blood to the Nation of the Cross,” and with the words "Safety for you crusaders is something you can only wish for," uttered by one of the knife-waving savages before the first throat was slashed...and this time it was NOT the usually expected 'Jihad John'...a modern day Holy War has begun.

And while some wonder what the Egyptians were doing in Libya to begin with that answer...like so many other answers to so many other questions...lies at the feet of Barack HUSSEIN Obama...whose anything but an Arab Spring became the catalyst for economic instability throughout the entire Middle East region...instability which forced people to look beyond the home countries for work..to look to oil-rich but manpower-poor countries like Libya. Such was the case for these unfortunate souls...good men just trying to make a living in an area of the world gone mad.

Brave souls these twenty-one men were for their last words were words of faith as they were resigned to the fact of their upcoming death. “Jesus help me,” NOT “Jesus save me” they said for they knew saving was NOT to be their fate but helping to 'cross over' without fear was all they asked for. Twenty-one brave souls now with the Lord while thirty-five other Egyptian Coptic Christians are also in ISIS' hands awaiting their fate...a fate which will sadly be at the whim of barbarians.

And while Pope Francis condemned the beheadings saying all Christians “be they Catholics, Orthodox, Copts or Lutherans” are of one faith, he proclaimed the murdered men martyrs. But like so many others he too does NOT understand that martyrs are those who willing die for their faith or their cause...martyrs are NOT those whose hands are tied behind their backs so that their death becomes one of lambs to the slaughter.

And what of Obama...where were his words of condemnation...I must have missed them I guess. But seriously, all we got was words on paper in the guise of an 'official' statement delivered NOT by Obama himself but by his mouthpiece Josh Earnest, because just like he did after the beheading of James Foley, Barack HUSSEIN Obama was too busy hurrying off to play golf. And even sadder was that the statement issued rang hollow...just like all previous statements issued concerning those murdered by ISIS did...for this statement's wording was also devoid of the all-important words that needed to be said.

Those all-important words were again missing...deliberately of course...just like when Obama called the Jews murdered in the kosher supermarket in Paris “random folks,” Earnest's words called those twenty-one Coptic Christians murdered “innocents” or “citizens” with the word 'Christians' NOT written and NOT said. But within the two short paragraphs of this 'official' Obama statement the word 'ISIL' appeared five times...ISIL...NOT ISIS...again allowing Obama to 'officially' give a shout out to his brethren...his brethren who want Israel wiped off the map.

And oh yes, no one...NOT one single person in this administration...has said the words 'Jews killed' or 'Christians killed' in any of their TV appearances let alone have they said the words 'muslim islamists terrorists'...and they NEVER will.

And now with yet another atrocity having just taken place...an atrocity reflecting the severity and speed of the ever-increasing spread of ISIS...these savages burned to death forty-five Iraqis from the town of al-Baghadi, most of whom were believed to have been part of the town's security forces. And the silence from Obama remains deafening even as local police chief, Col Qasim al-Obeidi, continues to plead for help from both the Iraqi government and from the international community...yet NO real help to date has been forth coming.

So as the three-day Obama NOTHING but a photo-op to look like something is being done 'Summit on Countering Violent Extremism' (SVE) begins in D.C...notice the words islamic terrorism are left out even here...representatives from more than sixty nations will...as per Obama's agenda...focus on how to prevent attacks like those carried out by 'lone wolves'...will focus on local ways to discourage and prevent 'discontented' youth from becoming extremists...but will NOT have its prime focus being on ISIS like it should be.

And in this administration's refusal to zero in on islam...while they continue to claim that the actions of ISIS do NOT represent islam and that the threats worldwide go beyond any one religion (I'm still waiting for Obama to say what other religion does what ISIS does)...you just know this summit will go NOWHERE and will accomplish NOTHING...exactly what Barack HUSSEIN Obama wants...exactly what ISIS wants...and oh yes...exactly what the puppet master Valerie Jarrett wants...just saying.

**********************************************************

Today, Wednesday, February 18th, on RIGHT SIDE PATRIOTS on CPR Worldwide Media from 2 to 4pm EST, Craig and Diane will be discussing the beheading of the 21 Coptic Christians at the hands of ISIS and Obama's response or lack thereof to this horrific act, and the burning alive of the 45 Iraqi's again at the hands of ISIS.

Op-ed: 
His Muslim Faith Made Clear for Those Really Listening
By: Diane Sori

"No god condones terror." 
 - Obama's words alluding that there is more than one God...as in the false god known as allah

Yesterday, the National Prayer Breakfast was held in Washington DC. bringing together lawmakers from both sides of the aisle and leaders from across the religious spectrum. And true to form, Barack HUSSEIN Obama turned even this faith based event into a platform for his bloviations that ISIS is NOT islam.

Coming but a day after seeing the horrific video of what ISIS did to the Jordanian pilot, Obama said that too many religions are "twisted and misused in the name of evil" by people who use faith "as a wedge - or worse, sometimes used as a weapon,” yet this vile man still refuses to point a finger at islam...the one and only 'supposed' religion that continues to commit savage acts in this 21st century.

Saying in his best for the camera 'preacher-voice' that faith has been abused by "all religions" throughout history, Obama forgets that history cannot be changed for it is over and done with and exists solely as a record to learn from. But since its inception in the mind of a perverted madman, islam has NOT learned one damn thing about how to live amongst civilized men.

And the two faiths of which Obama alluded to in his "all religions" comment are the only two faiths that believe in and live by the words of the one true living God...as in Christianity and Judaism..as he calculatingly forgets that both underwent reformation centuries ago and that killings done in these intervening years by men of those faiths were NOT done in the name of said faiths...for other reasons YES...but NOT in the name of God...and NOT in the name of Christ. Only islam's jihadis continue to kill in the name of their (false) god allah...yelling “allahu akbar” as women are stoned, heads roll, and bodies go up in flames.

History is the past...it's what came before...it's events that led us to become who we are today and today is what we need to be concerned with NOT what happened in days long gone. And with Obama's words spewed that “we need to get off our high horse”...a direct slap in the face to Christians everywhere...and his adding that what's happening with ISIS (he said ISIL of course) today is unique to some other place and that such "distortions" are NOT unique to any one group of people, this vile man actually dared to compare Christianity with today's islamic savages.

Saying that during the Crusades and the Inquisition people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ...and his bringing up both plays well into the islamic playbook that they are fighting their own crusade of sorts...what he oh so conveniently forgets is that the Crusades, which took place from 1095 to 1291...as in almost a thousand years ago...was first and foremost about protecting Europe and the Holy Land from the very same savages we need to protect ourselves from today...as in muslims islamic savages. Remember, the Crusades were basically the West's answer to muslim aggression and started when armies of Christians from Western Europe heeded Pope Urban II’s plea to go to war against muslim forces attacking Christian pilgrims in the Holy Land and only ended when Acre fell to the muslim Mamluks.

Notice the key word is 'muslim'...and simply stated...muslims...islamists...were a problem a thousand years ago and they remain a problem...a serious problem... today for the simple fact is that islam has NEVER undergone a desperately needed reformation to basically, if you will, enter the modern civilized world.

(See Obama's full speech at yesterday's Prayer Breakfast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XU7RuilNq4w Article continues below.)

And still he bloviated on saying, "As people of faith, we are summoned to push back against those who've tried to distort our religion — any religion — for their own nihilistic ends.” “Our religion”... NO I do NOT think so as 'our' religion is NOT Obama's religion. Forgetting that our country is Judeo-Christian in both its beliefs and foundation and that his actions alone speak volumes that he shares NONE of those beliefs, it's his very own words that are what betrays him. Saying that while ISIL...again referring to the Levant where Israel does NOT exist...is "a brutal, vicious death cult that, in the name of religion, carries out unspeakable acts of barbarism," he still refuses to name the only religion today that does unspeakable acts in the name of their (false) god...again that being islam.

And this man dares to forget that we as a nation have always had problems with islam...with muslims...since our inception...a case in point being Thomas Jefferson's war against the Barbary pirates. Yes it's true that Jefferson had in his possession a qur'an but NOT because he thought islam to be a just and honorable religion, but so he could study islam and understand the mindset of the brutal enemy our new country faced.

Jefferson knew islam's truth, yet today we have a president who still refuses to see islam as brutal and evil or even utter let alone think the words muslim islamic terrorists...and for that if NOTHING else it's time that people accept as fact that those words will NEVER cross this man's lips because (I believe) that Barack HUSSEIN Obama's true allegiances do indeed lie with those committing these most unspeakable of acts.

And adding to Obama's most grievous comments was his words that,“in our home country, slavery and Jim Crow all too often was justified in the name of Christ.” Guess he forgot that slavery ended in America in 1865 but that slavery is ongoing throughout today's muslim world...and guess he also forgets that the Jim Crow segregation laws were championed by the Democrats and that it was the Republicans who championed its elimination.

Selective memory thy name is Obama...selective partisan memory of course.

And did you ever notice that the man who claims he's a Christian...even though NO church in America has a record of him ever converting from the islamic faith that he was raised in...loves to bash Christians and Christ every chance he gets...loves NOTHING better than to bash Christian history while speaking of how wonderful islam is. Guess what...islam is anything but wonderful as islam is islam is islam...it's one vile package with NO deviations from its perverted 7th century norm allowed.

And so the man who reminded the prayer breakfast attendees numerous times that violence rooted in religion is NOT exclusive to islam...and the man who equated Christianity to ISIS...proves once and for all that he is anything but Christian. And this man finished his speech by saying that he is "looking forward to welcoming Pope Francis to the United States later this year" (it was later announced that the Pope will address a joint session of Congress on September 24th ). I just hope that this Pope has the guts to slap Obama up his islam-loving, terrorist-condoning, Christian and Jew hating head.

And to that I say...amen.
