The outrage over humanitarian crises in Syria and Egypt is selective. And in Pakistan, Africa, and other parts of the world.

And last place, as so many are slaughtered for it.

I've had regular talks on radio with Nina Shea, Hudson Institute's Director of the Center for Religious Freedom, and each one is more shocking than the last.
