Former President Barack Obama held a persecution campaign of Christians in the United States during his time in office, author David Horowitz told Newsmax TV.
During an appearance Monday on "America Talks Live," Horowitz — who wrote the new bestseller "Dark Agenda: The War to Destroy Christian America" — accused Obama of a Christian crackdown.
"If you'll remember, Osama bin Laden, when he declared war on us, the war was declared against the land of the Jews and the Crusaders — the Crusaders being Christians. The Islamists enabled [him] in destroying the oldest Christian community in the world, in Iraq, by Barack Obama, who in his presidency domestically in America, carried on a campaign against Christians," Horowitz said.
"Persecuting, for example, the Little Sisters of the Poor, a Catholic charity that goes back to the 16th century. It's nuns taking care of elderly women, but the Obama White House tried to force the Little Sisters of the Poor to distribute condoms, even though there's nobody of child-bearing age. It was just a persecution. They had to go to the Supreme Court at great cost to defend themselves."
Horowitz also accused South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg, a Democrat who is running for president, of bigotry.
"Then you have a leading candidate for the Democratic nomination, Buttigieg, who's a bigot," Horowitz said. "He's attacked the vice president of the United States because he's a Christian."
