"My purpose here today is to assert in my judgment, (ISIS) is responsible for genocide against groups in areas under its control including Yazidis, Christians and Shiite Muslims," he said, during a news conference at the State Department.
From 1843 to 1945, the Turks, Kurds, Arabs and Persians committed genocides against the Assyrian nation and other Christian peoples in Asia Minor [Middle East].
These international human rights violations were crimes against humanity and served as examples for future atrocities of this manner against the Jewish people in Europe. In these genocides, 750,000 indigenous Christian Assyrians living in their ancestral homelands (known today as the republics of Turkey, Syria, Iraq, and Iran), including 1½ million Christian Armenians and 300,000 Hellenes were burned, slaughtered, and shot systematically.

So with all the back and forth about this and that and right and left religion this and that and gender this and that something really bothers me....
The dead silence over the Christian Genocide and the lack of response from the West.
I also have to wonder.... what's the agenda at play here, whats the objective... is the objective to further use Muslims or Transgenders to continue to drive bigger wedges between the American people to continue the banking and industrial empires stranglehold on American/ world politics... to me that seems the most logical. However feel free to throw out your own ideas.
John Kerry: ISIS responsible for genocide
"My purpose here today is to assert in my judgment, (ISIS) is responsible for genocide against groups in areas under its control including Yazidis, Christians and Shiite Muslims," he said, during a news conference at the State Department.
At least someone is finally stepping up to the plate and saying something about this genocide and its not just Christians. Now for whatever reasons the media has been basically silent on this issue and its not part of any national conversation and I don't know why.
Do the Obama conspiracies actually hold weight?
Assyrian Holocaust
From 1843 to 1945, the Turks, Kurds, Arabs and Persians committed genocides against the Assyrian nation and other Christian peoples in Asia Minor [Middle East].
Oh but wait, this isn't a new development this has been happening for hundreds of years.
These international human rights violations were crimes against humanity and served as examples for future atrocities of this manner against the Jewish people in Europe. In these genocides, 750,000 indigenous Christian Assyrians living in their ancestral homelands (known today as the republics of Turkey, Syria, Iraq, and Iran), including 1½ million Christian Armenians and 300,000 Hellenes were burned, slaughtered, and shot systematically.
Not only has this been happening for hundreds of years but it has happened to millions of people! Yet... the west doesn't acknowledge its existence. Now I personally know a few Iraqi Christian Assyrian refugees whos families fled Iraq 20 years ago from persecution for being Assyrian Christians and this is a very real phenomenon, but apparently they are Christians so who cares?
Now I'm really getting tired of people speaking out about injustice and safe spaces and how sensitive they are or how we shouldn't be examing whats going on in the Middle East for the last few decades or whats happening with the Radicalization of Islamic sects and the rapidly growing Terrorist organizations perpetrating these genocides against these Christian and Shiite Muslim groups but theres something going on.
It's about time damn we set aside this idiotic left vs right paradigm, this protectionist mindset or this ultra liberal ideology of having protected classes and we look at cold hard reality and figure out what the hell is really going on here.
What's the agenda and who's in control?

What Christian genocide?
Seems to me this OP serves to rant and push an political stance.
This would be better suited for the rant forum.
