The House voted Monday to pass a resolution, with 383-0 giving their ayes, that ISIS is committing genocide against Christians and other minorities in the Middle East
It does seem sadly ironic that after decades of murders at the hands of ISIS, which has existed under other names since the early 1990s, that a House resolution is just now passed.
This vote came ahead of a deadline set by Congress that told the Obama administration that they must determine if the actions of the Islamic State was in fact genocide.
Josh Earnest said that, “This is something the State Department is continuing to look at but certainly has not in anyway delayed the administration from (sic) taking aggressive action to protect religious minorities….” Read the rest of his statement on the next page. A continued look into the atrocities is not what those who are losing their heads for the sake of Christ need.

Well since Obama funded them ..and pretended to bomb them ..i guess Obama is guilty of CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY! ..WHO AGREES WITH ME ?
finally got something right.
Seriously?!!!
The house votes that ISIS is committing genocide? Gee, what gave it away? I’ll sleep better tonight knowing the house has made a move towards….what?
Duh.
James Ellis, so, what is your point. It’s ok because others have done it?
A lot of people have brought up the fact that they won’t vote for Trump if he’s the eventual nominee. I just want to put something in perspective.
Justice Scalia’s seat is vacant. Ginsberg is 82 years old, Kennedy is 79, Breyer is 77, and Thomas is 67. Nowadays, the data shows that the average age of a Supreme Court retirement or death occurs after 75.
These are 5 vacancies that will likely come up over the next 4-8 years. The next President will have the power to potentially create a 7-2 Supreme Court skewed in their ideology.
Think about that… 7-2. If the next President appoints 5 young justices, it will guarantee control of the Supreme Court for an entire generation. And 7-2 decisions will hold up much more over time than 5-4 decisions which are seemed to be lacking in mandate.
Hillary has made it clear she will use the Supreme Court to go after the 2nd Amendment. She has literally said that the Supreme Court was wrong in its Heller decision stating that the Court should overturn and remove the individual right to keep and bear arms. Period.
Everyone saying that they won’t vote for one candidate or the other if they are the GOP nominee, please realize this. If Hillary Clinton wins and gets to make these appointments, you likely will never see another Conservative victory at the Supreme Court level for the rest of your life. Ever
An now what you gonna do about it
