Jean-Clément Jeanbart, the Melkite Greek Catholic Archbishop of Aleppo, gave a recent interview with a French reporter, in which he was highly critical of the mainstream media and even of his fellow bishops for ignoring the Muslim persecution of Middle Eastern Christians. Archbishop Jeanbart was turning over a rock, exposing a scandal within the Catholic Church of catastrophic proportions.
All the mainstream Christian churches have looked the other way. Several months ago they sent out a letter expressing their "deep concern" about the persecution of Christians in Syria, but in the same breath they grovelled and equated it with Canada's treatment of Indians and minorities. I mean, we all know the forces of the Canadian state are busy beheading Indians and throwing queers off tall buldings, right?
