According to recently released figures from the State Dept., the United States has let in a minuscule number of Christian refugees from Syria — only 34 — during the four years since the Islamic State began its campaign of mass slaughter. Put differently, although Christians amount for 10 percent of Syria’s population—and so should at least be 10 percent of the refugees accepted into the States—only two percent of those accepted are Christians.
This disparity is being ignored by influential U.S. Christian groups. The Church World Service (CWS) and the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops have both called for the resettlement of 100,000 Syrian refugees in the United States next year. Yet advocacy for especially persecuted Christians is lacking among these U.S. Christian organizations.
The CWS, for example, does not even mention the special plight of Christians on its website’s call to help Syrian refugees; it primarily features pictures of Muslims. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops — which touts itself as the world’s largest refugee resettlement organization and even received $80 million from the federal government in 2014 for its Migration Fund — also often fails to mention Christians in its public advocacy for the resettlement of Syrian refugees.
Refugee Resettlement Watch charges that “The Bishops [of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops] surely are not telling local priests and parishioners that they are raking in millions of dollars of cold hard cash from federal taxpayers for refugee resettlement activities. And, they aren’t telling them that they are NOT advocating to save the persecuted Christians of Syria through this program” (emphasis in original).
When the Catholic hierarchy does mention persecuted Christians, they are often lumped in with every other group, including Muslim majorities. This approach begins with Pope Francis. Last September, when he stood before the world at the United Nations, his energy was, once again, spent on defending the environment. In his entire speech, which lasted nearly 50 minutes, only once did Francis make reference to persecuted Christians—and he merged their sufferings in the same sentence with the supposedly equal sufferings of “members of the majority religion,” that is, Sunni Muslims (the only group not to be attacked by the Islamic State, a Sunni organization). Said Francis:
I must renew my repeated appeals regarding to the painful situation of the entire Middle East, North Africa and other African countries, where Christians, together with other cultural or ethnic groups, and even members of the majority religion who have no desire to be caught up in hatred and folly, have been forced to witness the destruction of their places of worship, their cultural and religious heritage, their houses and property, and have faced the alternative either of fleeing or of paying for their adhesion to good and to peace by their own lives, or by enslavement.
In the real world, however, “members of the majority religion”—Sunnis—are not being slaughtered, beheaded, and raped for refusing to renounce their faith; are not having their mosques bombed and burned; are not being jailed or killed for apostasy, blasphemy, or proselytization. Quite the contrary, “members of the majority religion” are responsible for committing dozens of atrocities against Christian minorities every single month all throughout the Islamic world.
From a strictly humanitarian point of view, then—and humanitarianism is the chief reason being cited in accepting refugees—far from being lumped in with “members of the majority religion,” Christians should receive top priority simply because they are the most persecuted group, as repeated studies have shown.
At the hands of the Islamic State and in Syria alone, Christians have been repeatedly forced to renounce Christ or die; they have been enslaved and sold on sex slave markets; they have had more than 400 of their churches desecrated and destroyed.
If Christian minorities are true refugees, most Muslims are to a large extent economic migrants not fleeing real persecution but arriving from safe locales such as Turkey. Moreover, roughly 97-98 percent of those being accepted as refugees into the U.S. are Sunni Muslims—the same sect that ISIS, which supposedly precipitated the refugee crisis, belongs to. And many of them, unsurprisingly, share the same vision of relentless jihad on the infidel—such as the “refugees” who murdered some 120 people in France, or the “refugees” who persecute Christian minorities in European camps and slaughter them in their beds, or the “refugees” who drown Christian migrants in the sea, or the ISIS-affiliated Sunni jihads who massacred over a dozen Americans at a Christmas party in San Bernardino… Keep reading

“Renounce Christ or Die”.
For some 1500 years now this vile satanic cult has been engaged in holy wars. They have been responsible for the torture and death of thousands of people in cold blood because they would not give up their faith.
They have spread their demonic ideology across the globe and engaged in corruption and the enslavement of millions.within their pernicious system.
Yes, it’s the Society of Jesuits and the Roman Catholic hierarchy.
Sola Fide..
mezcukor says
I agree with you. And of course these stupid Christians follow the Jesuit /socialist pope.
Shane says
The mental disease of liberalism has infected many Christian organizations who are now saving those who persecute Christians instead of saving the Christians who are being tortured and slaughtered by these savages. Liberalism has morphed into a suicide cult and the quickest way to kill a society is by bringing in hordes of hostile young Muslims who will soon be raping, robbing, and destroying. Stop the insanity of bringing large numbers of Muslims into the West now!
Angemon says
Shameful.

Shameful indeed.
Don McKellar says
THE MOST DAMNING STATISTIC:
“…roughly 97-98 percent of those being accepted as refugees into the U.S. are Sunni Muslims…”
That says it all, doesn’t it? This whole thing is nothing but a mass export of Sunni Islam to the world. All at the infidel’s expense, all for the advancement of Islam. A plague of jihadis on the kuffir. Sunni moslems — supposedly running from Sunni moslems. And all these FOOLS buy the whole bullshit story!
EYESOPEN says
Spot-on Don. Did you ever wonder WHY?
Linde Barrera says
I had a text conversation several months ago with a minister from the United Church of Christ. I gave him the names of Hatune Foundation, Open Doors, ACERO, Barnabas Fund, Christian Aid Mission, and Rescue Christians as groups he could contact and to whom he could possibly send some $ contributions, as I have contributed to all of them, and could recommend them. The peculiar thing is that this minister never heard of any of these groups! It appears that Satan is at work, doing his best to undermine Christianity, (as well as Judaism) everywhere in this world, and working hard to kill off Christians and Jews wherever and whenever possible. The response from CWS and the Catholic bishops is sickening.
Ex-muslim says
Short story:
Several years ago, I temporarily worked as a translator for a US agency that processed muslim refugees who are immigrating to the US. There was a muslim woman who wore the hijab and who was a regular worker for this US organization after she learned from the other translators who were all muslims that I left islam and converted to Christianity, she called me to work with her and after a short conversation she started criticizing me and calling me an infidel and kaffir and after I gave her appropriate answers she reported me to her big fat, bald-headed American supervisor and he called me to his office and told me to “leave the premises immediately”. This was 2002 in another country and it was just a few months after the 9/11. I tried to explain to him that I was my self was a refugee in that third world country and that I had small kids and I needed the small temporary job and that the muslim woman is the one who started insulting me but he arrogantly kept telling to “leave the premises” or else he would call the authorities and I did leave the premises. On that day and in that country, it was like a wake up call for me and I learned that most Americans really hate Christians and will side with muslims and I can now see the same thing going on in macrocosm as American and other Western governments and even so-called Christian churches refuse to help suffering Christians while giving BILLIONS to muslim perpetrators and even to muslim jihadist killers. As many other Ex-muslims are, I now consider muslims and the majority of Americans and other Westerners to be my mortal enemies and I really wish God punishes them both without mercy.
Shane says
Most Americans do not hate Christians, it is the liberals who despise Christians and they are overrepresented in the news and entertainment media, and in our schools and colleges. We must fight these haters and unite to save our religion from them and their Muslim allies. You should have sued that business.
Ex-muslim says
And most Americans are liberals. That proves my point!

May God bless you brother! What happened to you is happening in large scale to Christians in the M.E. and in the Balkans and beyond. Just as that anti-Christ American man discriminated against you and supported the musiim fascist woman then Are the anti-Christian American and Western governments and their societies are discriminating against Christians and backing their murderous islamic jihadist allies. It wont’ be long until islam and their anti-Christ Western allies are justifiable punished for this. Just watch!
mortimer says
Reviving the crusades is not a priority of any Western government. The only solution to protect Eastern Christians is practically, then, to lift them out of the East, since no one wishes to provide the military force to defend them.
Christianblood says
In this day and age, Anyone who can’t very clearly see the fact that the majority of Americans/Westerners and their liberal secular governments do really hate Christians
but have deep love for muslims, including muslim jihadist killers is REALLY ONE BIG GIGANTIC FOOL! I sense something very bad is going to happen as a result of this evil.
Sam says
THE WEST ARE SUCKING UP TO MUSLIMS OUT OF FEAR OF TERROISM, BUT THEY DO STILL HATE MUSLIMS.
PGuud says
Has it been proved that these so-called spiritual leaders (of the Jewish and Christian sort) aren’t crypto-Muslims, doing the bidding of the ummah?
If they aren’t Muslim, they are stupid. Then again, one and the same.
Islam: where freedom ends and slavery begins.
Marty says
I’m surprised this is happening in the US.
In the UK, Christians are engaged in a prolonged suicide in deference
to mohammedanism.
The previous archbishop of Canterbury ( the one with the filthy beard)
wanted sharia law incorporated into UK law.
Screeminmeeme says
Jesus said that the signal characteristic of the Christian is his love for the brethren (John 13:35)……a love that doesn’t come from man, but from God himself who channels it through his children. (Romans 5:5).
Clearly, these groups which disregard the tens of thousands of horrifically persecuted Christians demonstrate that they are ”Christian” in name only. They know NOTHING of the love and compassion of Christ.

Of course they do.
They’re all really only “religions salesmen” not religious people.

They remind me of the Nazi collaborators in France and other countries during WWII. They sicken me and need addressed directly for enabling the enemy. Christians and other non-muslims are suffering horrible deaths and torture. This is what they should be addressing.
Haile Tessema says
These are no more Christian orgs,, but rather followers of Political Correctness, so they should change their respective names accordingly to the PC Church World Service (PCCWS) and the U.S. Conference of PC Bishops.
Christianblood says
Agreed.
People in America and in the West replaced Christianity with a man-made radical secular moral relativist religion which is also also known as ‘liberal democracy’ and this new fanatical secular atheistic religion is just as hostile to Christianity as the islamic fascist religion is and the two are actually working together to destroy Christianity not only in America and in the West bust also in Russia and in the rest of the world.
Paul says
Catholic Bishops are busy molesting children. They don’t have time to think about Christian persecution around the world.
Christianblood says
Agreed. Catholic bishops and very STUPID TRAITORS and they hate the TRUTH.
