Persecution Is the US inconsistent in its approach to countries who persecute Christians? If the US punishes a small trading partner with economic sanctions yet spares a large trading partner - is that showing partiality or flexibility?  It seems to me that the government should strive for consistent standards and apply them equally to everyone. We should have an expressed policy with a clear aim of doing what we can to bring attention to and ease the persecution of Christians, and in fact, people of other religious beliefs as well. Here's an article talking about this issue: US Lets Big Trade Partners Continue Religious Persecution ... Agape Press - Tupelo,MS,USA ... is interesting that the US government is applying a double standard in dealing with countries tagged by the US State Department for their religious persecution 3:30:22 PM    comment []
