President Obama was cheered by his party and the opposition for cancelling a meeting with Vladimir Putin, one man, yet we see no outrage or cancellation of meetings with rebels.

Senator John McCain is so enamored with the Syrian rebels; he traveled to Syria to meet with their leaders in May. McCain and his traveling sidekick, Senator Lindsay Graham (R, SC), are both strong adherents for outright lethal aid to rebels. Apparently, it is more important for them to get rid of the regime of Bashar al-Assad than it is to protect an imperiled and persecuted minority, Syria's Christians.

One of the leading figures of Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood street riots said it clearly:

"We are waiting for victory from God. We are fighting a war of identity against Christians and secularists who wanted bloodshed and declared war on Islam."

Attacks on churches and Coptic Christians occur regularly from Upper Egypt, through the Nile Delta, and into the Sinai region. On August 14 alone, 40 churches were attacked throughout Egypt. Even the Muslim Brotherhood-Syrian rebel mouthpiece, Al Jazeera acknowledged the unprecedented frequency and intensity of attacks against Christians in Egypt.

Reports of Anti-Christian acts by Syrian rebels are widely known but not covered to any extent by U.S. media. This sample of attacks on Christians is typical of the path the rebels have taken to terrorize one small segment of the total population. Syrian Carmelite Nun, Mother Agnes-Mariam said, "The free and democratic world is supporting extremists. They want to impose Sharia Law and create an Islamic state in Syria."
