The usual suspects in the Republican Party are pushing for US intervention in Syria. John McCain and his girlfriend Ms. Lindsey Graham are trying to get the Senate to pass a resolution to help the Islamic militants in Syria overthrow the equally evil Assad regime. Marco Rubio made an impassioned video calling for the US to help the Muslim Brotherhood rebels in Syria. After Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya you would think Republicans would have learned their lessons. Instead they want to install another Islamic regime. These same Republicans are silent on a legitimate good cause, the South Sudan.
Over the past several weeks the Islamic regime in the Sudan has attacked the Christian South Sudan. In retaliation, Southern Sudanese forces invaded the North and seized the Heglig oil field. They beat off 2 Islamic counter attacks. As is usually the case, the UN, EU and US took the Islamic side and pressured the South to withdraw. As their forces were leaving, the Islamic regime declared victory. The withdrawal has been complete for 3 days now and the Northern Sudanese air-force has continued attacks on the Christian south. Yet the same Republicans who want to help the Syrian Islamists don’t say anything about helping the Christian South Sudanese.
Its a shame the same party that says it stands up for Christian values in America, stays silent on Christians who need assistance. I would have no qualms assisting South Sudan defeat its Islamic northern enemy. Yet People like John McCain, Miss Lindsey, Marco Rubio and Mitt Romney stay silent about this subject. They would rather help Islamic Muslim Brotherhood rebels, than Christians. I will not even bother criticizing the Pharaonic Regime, since Obama said he will stand with Muslims. But the GOP should know better and I think it is a disgrace they prefer to help Islamic radicals than Christians fighting for their land.
The Republican Party should be ashamed of its lack of support for the South Sudanese Christians. Clearly Arab Muslims are worth more than Black Christians to the Republican establishment.
