"Genocide" is the intentional killing of a group of people, racial, ethnic, religious. The intention of Nazi Germany to exterminate all Jews is one example. But the world may be observing another one in Iraq where IS savagely targets religious minorities.
Remember the ultimatum IS gave to citizens of Mosul? Become Muslim, pay us, or we kill you - those were the options. Mosul was home to hundreds of thousands of Christians throughout the centuries since the Apostle Thomas started a church here. Those who didn't care for the options have left everything and run for their lives.
Ronald Lauder, president of the World Jewish Congress, wants to know why we haven't seen outrage from the outspoken celebrities who speak out and demonstrate for other ethnicities.
He says, "[T]he barbarous slaughter of thousands upon thousands of Christians is met with relative indifference."
