Easy Question, Tough Answer

Sarah Hoyt at Instapundit links to an article in The Federalist which asks the following:
Why haven’t we heard a peep from Islamic powers about China brutalizing 1 million Muslims?
The short answer is, or should be, because “Islamic powers“ treat religious minorities roughly the same as China, like toxic dirt. Stories of the disappearance of the Middle East’s indigenous Christians are a commonplace.

Islam today mostly takes the view, held by the Catholic Church some centuries ago but no longer, that error (having the wrong faith) has no rights. The results: Inquisition (then) and jihad/ISIS (now).
