Cowaradice is in large supply these days. Since the U.S. is largely responsible for the hatred of Christians in the Holy Land and Middle East perhaps it should be the U.S. that does something to help the persecuted and fleeing Christians. How about rescuing these Christians and giving them a place to live right here in the U.S. We need more Christians here.
