Obama Somehow Forgets to Mention Islam in Statement on ISIS Murdering Ethiopian Christians

Once again Barack Hussein Obama has refused to identify exactly who it is murdering Christians in Africa and the Middle East. Obama’s new statement on the murders of Ethiopian Christians in Libya neglected to mention “Islam” or “Muslims.”

Obama simply refuses to understand the enemy we face.

Here is the full statement from April 19.

Statement by National Security Council Spokesperson Bernadette Meehan on Murders in Libya

The United States condemns in the strongest terms the brutal mass murder purportedly of Ethiopian Christians by ISIL-affiliated terrorists in Libya. We express our condolences to the families of the victims and our support to the Ethiopian government and people as they grieve for their fellow citizens. That these terrorists killed these men solely because of their faith lays bare the terrorists’ vicious, senseless brutality. This atrocity once again underscores the urgent need for a political resolution to the conflict in Libya to empower a unified Libyan rejection of terrorist groups.

Even as terrorists attempt through their unconscionable acts to sow discord among religious communities, we recall that people of various faiths have coexisted as neighbors for centuries in the Middle East and Africa. With the force of this shared history behind them, people across all faiths will remain united in the face of the terrorists’ barbarity. The United States stands with them. While these dehumanizing acts of terror aim to test the world’s resolve – as groups throughout history have – none have the power to vanquish the powerful core of moral decency which binds humanity and which will ultimately prove the terrorists’ undoing.

No mention of Islam. Not once.

But at least Obama’s regime did take notice that the only reason these people were murdered was because they are Christians. That is a step in the right direction at least.
