Samaritan's Purse (excerpts):  Samaritan's Purse Refugee Camp bombed 

The refugee camp operated by Samaritan's Purse in Yida, South Sudan, was bombed by the government of Sudan at approximately 3:20 PM local time on Thursday.  Over 23,000 people are living in the camp in the northernmost part of Unity State, after being displaced by fighting across the border in the Nuba Mountains of South Kordofan State.  Four bombs are reported to have been dropped.  One bomb fell on a schoolhouse, but thankfully it did not explode.  Another hit the marketplace, and two others fell on the fringe of the camp.  All of Samaritan's Purse staff have been accounted for and are safe.  They have not been able to confirm any casualties among the refugees.  Samaritan's Purse President, Franklin Graham, who visited the camp six days before the bombing, called for the world to take action in the immediate aftermath of the attack.  "I urge the United States and the international community to enforce a "no fly" zone in the area to protect not only the innocent civilians there, but also those who are trying to help them," he said.  "My prayer is that the world will  not just sit by and watch and hope for the best like they did during Rwanda, where close to a million people were massacred.  We need to make it clear to the government of Sudan that attacks on innocent people will not be tolerated."  The bombing occurred as the United Nations agency UNMIS was delivering about 12 metric tons of food, about one day's ration for the camp population.  Workers were unloading a helicopter carrying the food aid for distribution by Samaritan's Purse.  "We're trying to help the refugees, to save their lives," Graham said.  "The Nuba people are once again facing the horror of brutal persecution.  They are in urgent need of our prayers and support.  They need churches standing with them, because this is an atrocity."

CNNU.S. (excerpts):  At least two bombs were dropped near the Yida refugee camp in South Sudan, resulting in an undetermined number of casualties, the spokesperson for UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said said Thursday.  "We are very concerned that these bombs were dropped in an area where there are thousands of refugees who have gathered after fleeing the violence in Southern Kordofan and Blue Nile States," the spokesperson said in a statement.  "It is essential that both parties immediately take all steps to protect civilian lives."  In Washington, the office of the White House press secretary said in a statement that the "United States strongly condemns the aerial bombardment by the Sudan Armed Forces of the town of Yida," where more than 20,000 refugees have fled conflict in the Sudanese state of Southern Kordofan are living.  The Southern Kordofan, Blue Nile State and Nuba Mountain regions straddle Sudan and South Sudan's geographical and political lines.  "This bombing of civilians and humanitarian workers is an outrageous act and those responsible must be held accountable for their actions," the statement said.  The attack follows other bombardments by the Sudan Armed Forces on November 8 near the border.  "The United States demands the government of Sudan halt aerial bombardments immediately," the statement said.  "We urge the government of South Sudan to exercise restraint in responding to this provocation to prevent further escalation of hostilities."  

Commentary:  Did you notice how the UN's statement indicated "both parties" need to protect civilian lives?  As if to say the South Sudanese Christians are also involved in the terror attacks on their own selves!  The fact of the matter is, South Sudanese are predominantly Christians and the North Sudanese Muslims are terrorizing, torturing and killing them in the name of Allah and Sharia law.  Urging the South Sudanese to "refrain from responding" is akin to asking them to sit down like "lambs to the slaughter" to get bombed by the terrorist Muslims who are after them, only because they can't let these South Sudanese Christians escape to peace; they will make them submit to Islam, or be pursued, tortured and killed!

Newly formed South Sudan is among the poorest nations, if not the poorest nation in the world.  At least 2 million, mostly Christians, have been killed by Muslims in Sudan.  Finally, after ~50 years of struggling for their lives, the South Sudanese have their own nation and have long prayed for peace.  The Yida refugee camp shelters approximately 23,000 refugees, many of whom are severely malnourished and some are even starving to death in this camp.  How charitable and caring of the Obama administration is to issue a statement that this is an "outrageous act and those responsible will be held accountable."  It is interesting that no statement has been issued on exactly how those responsible will be made to face justice, nor has any indication been made that these pitiful, languishing refugees will be defended in any way.  Obama recently sent US troops to Uganda to hunt down a "Christian" rebel and kill him.  It is also interesting that Uganda is only about 300 miles from where Obama's cousin, Raila Odinga, is Prime Minister of Kenya, and head of a coup which burned ~800 churches (no mosques) and killed ~1,000 people when Odinga wasn't elected President of Kenya.  (Odinga also brought Sharia law to Kenya when he was appointed Prime Minister in a compromise with the newly elected president.)  During the 2008 elections in Kenya, Obama supported his cousin, who is against Democracy and free elections.  


If starving Muslim refugees were being bombed in South Sudan, do you think the Obama administration would be issuing a "statement," or "go after the thugs with full force and effect?"  Jesus said, "...If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you..." John 15:20.
