Christians in the Middle East

Oppression of people because of their religious beliefs is deeply offensive and wrong. In government and media circles there is, fortunately, a fair amount of concern for  religious groups such as (depending on the country or region) Shiites and Buddhists. But, with rare exceptions, there is little discussion by prominent U.S. government spokesmen for the fate of Christians in countries such as Iraq, Egypt, and Syria.
