First the Saturday People, Then the Sunday People
2015-04-17
h/t Gates of Vienna
This morning, as I watched the lighting of the flame at Yad Vashem to begin Holocaust Remembrance Day, I couldn't help but think of how the Jewish people remain under siege by dark forces committed to their destruction (if there's one stubborn constant in human history, it's that).

At the same time, my thoughts turned to the Christians of the Middle East, who are today being subjected to a genocidal campaign by ISIS and other jihadist groups dedicated to exterminating followers of Jesus in the very region where His teachings first blossomed.

In other words, first the Saturday people (Jews), then the Sunday people (Christians). That old jihadist rallying cry is literally playing out in real time today before our very eyes.
We learned. Can you?

#3  Seems a lot of Friday people (not of the right sect) have been getting wacked as well.

#2  Turn the other cheek, rotate, with your gripping hand grab a hold of your opponents fruit loops, remove not minding the tearing of the fleshy bits. Proceed about your bidness.

#1  The Christians might briefly consider turning the other cheek but neither they or the "Chosen People" are likely to be dragged into another Holocaust.
