The Left’s Crimes of Silence

Read the whole thing. Here's a study guide, there may be a test later:

  1. Where is the Left as the Sudanese government conducts a campaign of genocide against the wretched of the earth in Darfur Province?


  2. Where are the campus demonstrations against Robert Mugabe, who destroyed Zimbabwe, terrorized its people, and is using scarce reserves of food as a weapon while his citizens slowly starve?


  3. Where is the American Left’s sense of justice in the face of European anti-semitism?


  4. Where were they when the screams of torture victims pierced the prison walls under Saddam?


  5. Where were the celebrity journalists when Iraq’s mass graves were being opened over the past fifteen months?


  6. Why doesn’t the Left complain about the hate speech spewed in mosques and madrassahs around the world?


  7. When will we see mass demonstrations demanding rights for women in the Islamic world? Are women’s rights only for middle-class whites with college degrees?


  8. Where is the Left’s passionate sense of humanity when Islamic extremists behead the innocent—and videotape the event?


The blood of al Qaeda’s victims is on the hands of terror’s apologists, whether in Cairo or in Cambridge.
