Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race religion or political views that place must - at that moment - become the center of the universe.
Virtue is persecuted more by the wicked than it is loved by the good.
American and Israel share a special bond. Our relationship is unique among all nations. Like America Israel is a strong democracy a symbol of freedom and an oasis of liberty a home to the oppressed and persecuted.
Religious liberty is the first freedom in our Constitution. And whether the cause is justice for the persecuted compassion for the needy and the sick or mercy for the child waiting to be born there is no greater force for good in the nation than Christian conscience in action.
