In a Fight for Faith segment of Fox & Friends Friday morning, Fox legal analyst Peter Johnson, Jr. warned that there has been a precipitous decline in the Christian population in the Middle East, before suggesting that there are historical parallels to the events leading up to the Nazi Kristallnacht against the Jewish people in 1938.
Johnson asserted to host Brian Kilmeade that examples like violence against Coptic Christians in Egypt, the killing of non-Muslims at a Kenyan mall last month, and a terrorist attack on a Pakistani church, all prove that there is a war on Christianity abroad.
And the United States isnt doing enough to stop it, Johnson added.

(16,846 posts)but I wouldn't compare it to Kristallnacht. I don't think the attacks are organized and, as far as I know, there aren't any concentration camps for Christians or genocide against them. I think it's serious; I wouldn't want to be a Christian in a radical Muslim country. I just don't think it's up to the level of what happened to the Jews in Germany.

(2,679 posts)US Government shutdown battle start about then with cruz's public reading debut of green eggs and ham and end with a last minute vote that gave us a reprieve from possible economic apocalypse? And wasn't all this caused by the very people Faux Noise and its viewers, support, the baggers?
And also what does this have anything to do with the Nazi Kristallnacht ? Ok they got the Nazi part right. Only it was the American Nazi Party aka baggers trying to assert themselves by wrecking havoc upon the world. Not the story the poor misguided soul from faux was trying to tie this too. The baggers haven't carried out their Kristallnacht yet. And lets hope they never get the chance.
I know, what else do you expect from the faux noise machine at this time of the year. All the Obama is satan stuff with video airs next week before Halloween. And then right into the war on Christmas coverage.

(5,213 posts)It won't be Kristallnacht at at all, it will be quite different. In fact, what already has started to happen -- and it terrifies them-- is we are starting to IGNORE them.
The feel their increasing irrelevance, and they hate that.

Seven in 10 Americans say religion as a whole is losing its influence on American life. This is a near-record high percentage since Gallup began asking the question more than 50 years ago.
