Pope's Silence on Islamists --- "Someone in the Vatican Has a Reason to be Ashamed Before God"

From the German Catholic magazine, Eponymous Flower:

"A little late" is not only what Socci thinks, who was not subdued because of the criticism, but vindicated. "Compared to the drama of the persecuted Christians, it seems some secularists, even an anti-clerical government like that of France, almost sensitive to react when the Catholic world and the Church line", Chiesa e Postconcilio . 

Pope Francis and his court have so far reacted to the victims with little sensitivity and are even a bit annoyed as they brush off the executioner with kid gloves. Here is Socci's comment in the daily Libero of 10 August. 

The attitude is reminiscent of that unspeakable Swiss Capuchin and Marxist liberation theologian, Father Walbert Bühlmann (1916-2007), who made propaganda for Marxist ruled Third World dictatorships in Europe. 

The persecution of the Church and Christians by these regimes, he ignored. If he was forced to take a position on this contradiction, he said cynically: The persecuted Christians were to blame, because the're surely "reactionary" Christians, because the "true" Christians were on the side of progress and revolution. 

How Father Bühlmann responded to Marxists then, is today represented by other Church officials toward Islam? Meanwhile, in Iraq alone, there are more than 200,000 Christians on the run. Driven by Islamist militias, who have crucified, beheaded, stoned, executed and raped their enemies and enslave their women. 

The West seems to care more for the other minorities oppressed by the jihadists such as the Yezidis. The anti-Christ reflex is set so deeply in the state offices of some countries and especially the editors of many media that have not even Christian victims have validity. Even now the reports from Iraq, even from bishops, about Islamist crimes against women and children are hardly played at all. It remains to be seen whether these atrocities are confirmed. 

The Christians are hunted and killed as lawless "Nazarenes". The churches are burned or converted into Islamist bases. But the voice of the Vatican, the Pope, who is not otherwise taciturn, was previously only a barely intelligible whisper. 

The Pope's statement speaks only of a "humanitarian drama". What is happening in Iraq is but far more. In addition, the statement says nothing about what should be done about it, as Ferrara remarked, "Nothing is said in the rather cold explanation, about who 'are the persons responsible for these painful events. Not a single reference to the perpetrators and to the reasons why Christians have to flee from their homes and cities."
