Christians massacred by Muslims
Obama directs U.S. policy to support radical Islam
Radical Muslims in Africa's Ivory Coast, with the military backing of the United Nations and France, are perpetrating a massacre on the country's Christians while the Obama administration stands by and does nothing.Now, Ivory Coast President-elect Alassane Ouattara's largely Muslim forces have kept Christian Laurent Gbagbo, the current president, in his Abidjan residence under siege.
In retaliation, Gbagbo forces launched two mortars and a rocket at the residence of the French ambassador and French helicopter gunships responded by attacking Gbagbo forces, according to Bloomberg Businessweek.
In a report issued last week, Human Rights Watch documented that forces loyal to Ouattara killed hundreds of civilians and raped more than 20 alleged Gbagbo supporters as they burned at least 10 villages in the Ivory Coast's western region.
"People interviewed by Human Rights Watch described how, in village after village, pro-Ouattara forces, now called the Republican forces of Côte d'Ivorie (Forces Républicaines Côte d'Ivorie, FRCI) summarily executed and raped Gbagbo supporters in their homes, as they worked in the fields, as they fled, or as they tried to hide in the bush," the report noted. "The fighters often targeted people by ethnicity, and the attacks disproportionately affected those too old or feeble to flee."
On Saturday, reports from the Ivory Coast published by the London Evening Standard indicate that more than 200 bodies, some of them burned alive, have been found in the country.
The newspaper reported the concern of the International Rescue Committee that even if the military showdown in Abidjan were to end, the looting, hostility, bloodshed, reprisal killings and sexual assaults will continue to escalate in communities across the country.
The silence of the Obama administration on the violence in the Ivory Coast makes hypocritical the president's declaration in his May 28 speech on Libya that U.S. military action there was necessary to prevent a massacre by Gadhafi that "would have reverberated across the region and stained the conscience of the world."
The truth is that Obama, like the French and the U.N., support the radical Muslims that have taken over the "rebel forces" in Libya, just as Obama, the French and the U.N. support the Muslims in the Ivory Coast trying to remove from power the current Christian president, even if the Muslim supporters of Ouattara engage in massacres and mass rape against Christians.
What the Ivory Coast situation makes clear is that the consistency in the Obama administration's policy regarding the turmoil in North Africa is that Obama directs U.S. policy to support radical Islam, even to the point of being hypocritical in arguing United States policy is motivated by a desire to protect human rights and prevent massacre in the various ongoing conflicts in countries including the Ivory Coast and Libya.
This is the ugly truth the mainstream media in the United States will never openly report.
Ivory Coast background
The dynamics of the Ivory Coast turmoil are fairly simple to understand.
The current president, Laurent Gbagbo, is locked in a controversy with challenger Alassane Ouattara over the contested results of a Nov. 28 election.
The Ivory Coast Election Commission, or CEI, declared Ouattara the winner with 54.1 percent of the vote, only to have the Constitutional Council nullify the CEI's decision and declare that Gbagbo won with 51 percent of the vote after votes attributed to voter fraud were thrown out.
Most of the international community, including the United Nations, the African Union and the Economic Community of West African States, or ECOWAS, has rejected this result, declaring instead that Ouattara is the legitimate winner.
Both Gbabgo and Ouattara have taken competing oaths of office, with each claiming to be the legitimate winner of the Nov. 28 election.
Now, for what's really going on.
Gbagbo is a Christian who is supported mainly by Christians that dominate the southern part of the Ivory Coast.
Ouattara is a Muslim who is supported mainly by Muslims that dominate the northern part of the Ivory Coast.
Will Christianity long survive in the Ivory Coast?
Red Alert is getting inundated by emails from concerned Ivory Coast insiders who are worried Christianity may not survive in Africa if the international community ousts Gbabgo.
If civil war comes to the Ivory Coast, the violence will almost certainly descend into tribal violence, with the risk that thousands, if not tens of thousands, of innocent Ivory Coast citizens being massacred.
The underlying issue, rarely discussed in the controversy is whether the Ivory Coast will tip toward Islam should Ouattara end up replacing Gbabgo as the next president of the Ivory Coast.
