POPE DEFENDS CHRISTENDOM AND ATTACKS JIHADISM

When the Pope defends Christendom it shouldn't be news. But - alas, alack - in the crazy PC/multiculti world in which we live.... IT IS! ATLAS HAS THE STORY. EXCERPT:
The fact that the Pope made these remarks during the Jewish New Year, erev Yom Kippur is not lost on me.
[DAILY MAIL:] The Pope has again risked provoking the wrath of the Islamic world, by criticising its treatment of Christians.
It's about time.
Benedict XVI attacked Muslim nations where Christians are either persecuted or given the status of second-class citizens under the Shariah Islamic law. He also defended the rights of Muslims to convert to Christianity, an act which warrants the death penalty in many Islamic countries.

His comments came almost exactly a year after he provoked a wave of anger among Muslims by quoting a Byzantine emperor who linked Islam to violence.
Atlas has all the links - including to last year's speech and its violent aftermath.

Reliapundit:
Folks, ya gotta also remember this: all of North Africa and the Holy Land and Turkey and the Middle East were PREDOMINANTLY Christian before jihad. The Crusades were DEFENSIVE wars in which Christendom tried to re-take what was theirs. SO, when Atlas says, "It's about time..." she means... (IMHO)... it's a thousand years overdue!
