HORROR: Seven Sudanese Christians Crucified
Reading these reports, it seems pretty obvious that the chosen manner of murder was not accidental in the least:
Clearly.
With Sudan sitting proudly on the United Nations Human Rights Commission (no, I am not kidding), the odds of that world body doing anything at all to stop this madness is zero. Which seems to suggest that the UN is perhaps slightly more effective against religious cleansing than spending an informative evening with Katie Couric.
Combine that knowledge with the fact that the Obama Administration considers "terrorism" solely as it relates directly to al-Qaeda, it becomes equally clear that the United States will be doing nothing to end these people's suffering, either.
Unless you count empty words.
Of those, we have plenty.
How unfortunate it is that empty words don't equate to anything in the real world.

Marauding bands of guerrillas have "crucified" seven Christians during a series of raids on villages in Sudan, with one man tied to a tree and mutilated while six other victims were nailed to pieces of wood and killed.
Villagers who found their bodies near the town of Nzara said it was like a "grotesque crucifixion scene", the Catholic Herald reports.
Bishop Eduardo Hiiboro Kussala of Tombura-Yambio is appealing for international help to stop the cycle of violence and attacks by members of the Lord's Resistance Army, saying the government at home appeared powerless against it.
In one instance guerrillas stormed into Our Lady Queen of Peace church in Ezo during a novena prayer and desecrated the Host, the altar and the building before abducting 17 people mostly in their teens and 20s. One of the captives was later tied to a tree and killed while 13 others in the group are still missing, according to Aid to the Church in Need.
"The attackers clearly wanted to harm the people because they knew they were at prayer," the bishop said.
