- Today, from the Global Lane.

2018, a hard and painfulyear for many children,

Muslims, Christians, and Jews.

In Nepal, a bold Christian risks his life

to save kids from human traffickers.

In Myanmar, the worldawakens to atrocities

committed against the Rohingya people.

In Nigeria, thousands of Christians die

at the hands of militant Muslims.

And the U.S Embassy moves to Jerusalem.

And it's all right here, rightnow, from the Global Lane.

(dramatic music)

Globally, more than 21 million people

are subjected to forced labor.

Many of them are traffickedfor sexual exploitation,

and over the years,

CBN News has brought youstories of some of the victims.

We've reported how Christian groups

are trying to make a difference.

TellAsia is one such group,

helping to rescue humantrafficking victims in Nepal,

and joining us fromKathmandu is Brother Amar.

He's just returned from the field

following a recent rescue effort.

Amar, tell us about your recent rescue.

So, what did you do to help save children?

- It's the off-roads,

and it's really difficult for us

because we don't have the police,

even we don't have security.

And when we are going to enter

and we almost risk in there.

This is like a mountain.

And when we're going to there

and also people are came to there

and I'm also scared in myself.

And when I am going to inside

and the childrens, theyare livings in one bed,

the childrens are sleeping,

10 childrens are sleeping in one beds.

And when I'm going to inside,

and I'm asking the childrens,

I'm trying to call them, please come here.

I'm trying to talkingwith my Nepal language,

and I'm just sayingI'm here to rescue you,

please go with me.

But children, they arenot eager to come with me.

Even they are crying, crying, crying,

it's still six hours I am inside,

and after that they willdecided to come with me.

We can put the restraintand they are talking,

and they are dancing.

They know.

Actually, I am a Nepali guy

and when we are rescue the childrens,

we arrest the owner, all ofthe owners now they are in jail

and when we back to Nepal

and we can go to hometown.

And everybody, parents arecame, they are welcoming us.

And here is the big newsalso, there is two childrens

and they believe in Jesus Christ.

- Amar, what were they doingwith the children there

that you rescued?

- You know the owner guysthey already send a lots

of kids in the differentdifferent country,

to the girls and boys.

But when we rescue the kids

and we'll hand over their parents,

and now the kids are going to the school.

And TellAsia are providingthe boarding schools,

TellAsia (mumbles) the boarding schools.

And they have now, theyhave a good educations.

And now they are in okay.

- [Gary] So how extensiveis sex trafficking in Nepal,

using children and women for sex?

- It's lots, lots of.

Because lots of girls,they are going to in India.

Because it's easy to go to India

because we don't need to passport,

we don't need to any ID,

we can go easily.

- Finally, what can our viewers do,

to make a difference, how can they help?

- Please pray for ournation and this remote area.

Because there is the lack of education,

lack of transportation, lack of road.

And we need to just pray for me,

we need good school in this remote area.

- [Gary] So if they get into school,

there is less likelihoodthat they will be trafficked?

- Yeah, because they need the education,

they need the education.

Because there is no school.

- Yeah, so Christians in ourcountry can support schools

and education in Nepal andthat will go a long way.

So Brother Amar from Kathmandu, Nepal,

thanks so much for joining us.

- Thank you very much.

- Hello, I'm Terry Meeuwsen.

Did you know there are morethan 148 million orphans

in the world today?

148 million.

But it was three littlegirls that taught me

about the plight of orphans.

My husband and I spentnearly a month immersed

in the daily activitiesof the Ukrainian Orphanage

as we waited to adopt three sisters.

I saw firsthand the utterloneliness, the pain of rejection,

and the overwhelming desire to be loved.

That experience changed me forever.

And out of it grew a ministry

from my heart called Orphan's Promise.

Today we're helping orphansand vulnerable children

in more than 50 countries worldwide.

Thousands of childrenare now in safe homes,

they're being educated, andthey're learning life skills.

I'm asking you to join with me

and become family to these children.

Will you call the numberon your screen right now?

Because every child deservesa chance to be happy.

- "Have you no shame sir?"

That's how the United Nation'sHuman Rights Chief responded

when a Myanmar diplomatrecently told the UN

his government was committed

to the defense of human rights.

And those who follow theplight of the Rohingya

and the Kachin know differently.

Here with us to give ismore is Pastor Bob Roberts

of Northwood Church in Keller, Texas.

He's part of the Faith Coalitionto Stop Genocide in Burma.

Pastor Roberts we've reportedregularly about the Rohingya,

the refugees there, persecutedMuslims chased out of Burma

and now living in Bangladesh.

And I know you visited them,so how are are they doing,

and what did you witness?

- Well in October Iactually went to Cox's Bazar

and saw the Rohingya andwhat was going on there.

Me and the former Ambassadorfor Religious Freedom,

David Saperstein, alongwith Majid Mohammad.

David is a Jewish Rabbi bythe way and Majid Mohammad.

And so together we went and we looked

at what was going on there.

And obviously were shocked by what we saw.

But I got back home and Istarted having people say,

you know you're an evangelical,you're a Christian,

what about the Kachin?

And I'm sorry to say,I didn't know that much

about the Kachin.

And begin to hear a lot ofstories about what was going on,

that it was difficult,that was challenging.

And so I went, and I wasthere for about a week.

I was able to get into the Kachin state

and I was able to visitwith many of the IDP camps,

and a lot of the thingsthat were taking place.

And I was frankly, prettyalarmed by what I saw.

And what alarmed me evenmore so, I was curious

how well the Kachin actuallyunderstood what had happened

in the Rakhine State with the Rohingya

and how similar, thebeginning of what's going on

in the Kachin State was very similar

with what was going on with the Rohingya.

So I'm very concerned, morethan just a little concerned,

I'm very concerned aboutwhat I see taking place.

And I think now's thetime to respond to it.

For the most part, there's not a lot

that can be done anymorewith what's taking place

with the Rohingya.

Obviously you still gotmaybe four or 500,000

that are left out of the1.3 million that were there.

But you see the exactsame things taking place

with the Kachin now, so I'mvery concerned about it.

- I want to ask you aboutit, first about the Rohingya.

'Cause I know it's thelargest mass migration

of a people group in recent history.

So what do you think it's gonna take

to get them back home?

- They don't wanna go home,you've got to understand

they had 450 villagesthat were scorched earth.

Basically I was able tovisit with some people

with our American Embassy there.

And the Rohingya that arethere are frankly afraid.

But it's increasinglydifficult for them to leave

and get to Bangladesh.

So it's quite serious.

The conditions at the camp that you see,

the largest one in the world,

the conditions are horrible, open sewage.

And now the monsoon has started.

And I had the privilegeof getting to visit

with Ambassador Brownback now,along with some other groups

that are working there.

And the great tragedy is,when the people went in there

what they did Gary, they startedcutting all the wood down

for firewood and they ran out of wood.

So the next thing they'd started do

was digging the roots out of the ground.

And so it's not just themonsoon, now they're concerned

about serious mudslidesbecause there's nothing

to hold the ground stable.

And so they're literally preparing

for hundreds of thousands to die.

Because there's nowhere for them to go,

and they're afraid to go back home.

- Wow, what a tragedy that is.

I guess the reason forus as believers to pray

and also do what we can.

But of course as Christianswe have compassion

for the Rohingya, but alsoour audience has concern

for the Kachin, so tell ussome more about the Kachin.

What did you witness when you saw them?

- Well let me just, justa little bit of background

if I could, on the Kachin.

Believe it or not it's a state where 95%

of the people are Christians.

And they're primarilyBaptist, believe it or not.

And so what happened is,they're a minority group,

they're in the Kachin State, representing

about a 1.4 million people,

similar to what the RakhineState was with the Rohingya.

And so the first responsethat the Burmese have had

is it's more of an ethnic cleansing issue.

And over 60 of the churchesthat have been destroyed

they put Buddhist pagodas on top of those

to reclaim it, and so forth.

And you've gotta understand

these people have a rich heritage,

goes all the way back to the 1830s

when Adoniram Judson first came.

These were some of thefirst to accept the gospel.

- I don't know that thePresident, that Aung San Suu Kyi,

the woman they call The Lady,would be complicit in this.

Don't you really think it's the military

that's behind all this andreally in control of Myanmar?

- I do, that's my opinion,

but I don't know that(laughs), I'm guessing.

So I can't say for sure, butI'm prone to agree with you.

She took such a strongstand throughout her life.

And frankly, when I talked tomany of the Burmese baptists

that I visited with,that's what they said.

They said they felt like she was unable

because of the military.

Here's something elsethat alarmed me Gary,

the same units that were doingall the military destruction

down in the RakhineState, they've moved those

up to the Kachin State.

Now the problem is, when you radicalize

and you create suchviolence amongst soldiers

that have been raping and murder.

You don't just turn that switch off.

I'm seeing the same thing,I'm seeing 450 villages

that have been destroyed

and they're pushing all of these refugees

towards the churches inthe two major cities.

I mean it's gonna be easypickings for the military

if they were to choose to go in

- Well what can- and destroy it.

- our viewers do then Bob?

- The number one thing I would say is,

and this ought to be thefirst thing, is to pray.

They're staying strong in their faith.

They're no compromising,they're not giving up.

But it's a very serious issue,

this is not a minor thing.

- Okay, faith, prayer, action.

- Yes sir.- So Bob Roberts

of the Faith Coalition toStop Genocide in Burma,

thanks so much for joining us.

- Where in the World, Nigeria.

Where a new wave of violence from Herdsmen

has killed hundreds of Christians

in the northern part of the country.

Church leaders are callingit ethnic cleansing.

Joining us with the latest from Abuja

is CBN's Nigeria Director, Felix Oisamoje,

and joining us from ourWashington DC studio

with the latest is Emmanuel Ogebe.

Emmanuel's an internationalhuman rights attorney.

He's had relatives killedin the recent violence.

First Emmanuel, tell us what happened

to your family members.

- Yes Gary, just about 10 days or so ago,

there was a horrific massacre

in Plateau State in north-central Nigeria.

And I just saw the newsfrom contacts there.

It wasn't until a couple of days later

that I learned that six of my relatives

died in that attack.

From what we've beenable to piece together

the husband and his pregnant wife,

tried to take her outof the house to safety

and come back for the kids.

But they ran into theHerdsman on their way.

They shot him and his pregnant wife

and they went into their home

and they killed their four-year-old son

and their six-year-olddaughter who were asleep

in their beds.

They also had tworelatives who were visiting

for the summer break, andthose were killed as well.

So this was really a horrific slaughter,

over 238 people were killed.

And Gary what breaksmy heart is the brother

to the gentleman who diedsays that the family,

you spotted the corpsesand they said we want

to take our corpses and bury them

and the authorities refused, and insisted

on giving them a mass burialbecause they don't want

the truth to emerge as tohow many people really died

in that horrific massacrein Plateau State.

- Felix has the violenceagainst Christians subsided,

or is it continuing?

- Gary I was saying we havenoticed some escalation

in the last few months.

So you are right to say it'sincreasing at this point.

- Where is it specificallyhappening Felix, and why?

- It's happening morein the middle belt area

of the country.

And the reason simply isbecause the Fulani Herdsmen

take their cattle into people's farmlands,

they eat up their crops on the farm.

And when the people challenge them,

then before you knowthey respond with AK-47s.

- Where do they get the AK-47s?

So I understand, thisis different than the

Boko Haram violence, those terrorists.

Where do they get the AK-47s,

and why are they responding that way?

- That has been the question

because given how much

an AK-47 will go for,

the Fulani Herdsmen would probably need

to sell all his cattle tobe able to by an AK-47.

- Gary what we have is a genocide.

They are trying todisplace the Christians,

they're trying to possess their lands,

and they're trying toimpose their religion

on the so-called infidels and pagans.

- So what can our viewers do Emmanuel?

- Well there's severalthings that could be done.

Obviously the first is prayer.

But we're at a pointwhere thoughts and prayers

are not sufficient anymore.

Nigeria is now the deadliest place

in the world to be a Christian.

And so we need international pressure.

In addition to that we need aid.

I know that CBN, someother club, is in Nigeria,

so if people support CBN weknow that CBN will deliver

to the people who are afflicted.

But we need the members ofCongress, the U.S. Congress,

write to your Congressman.

They need to appoint a special envoy

on the issue of Nigeria.

- I personally believethat nothing happens

that doesn't have a spiritual background.

So whatever is going on right now,

has some kind of spiritual underpinnings.

And I believe that ifwe begin to deal with it

from that point, it makes it easier.

After all the Bible tellsus that we do not war

against flesh and blood.

And so we know that thereare spiritual issues,

so we need to pray, that'sthe first thing we need.

We need prayers that our God will continue

to protect our Christianswherever they are

all over the country.

And the other thing too is

to sensitize the international community

to what is going on here.

Because I believe that once that happens

and people know thatit's not only Nigerians

that are crying out, that then probably,

it will make them begin to seethat people are taking notice

outside of the country.

And probably that willdissuade them from their plans.

- Yeah and Gary, if Ican say one last thing.

There is a Christian girl who was abducted

by Boko Haram.

And they asked her to convert to Islam

and then she would be setfree, and she refused.

She's a 15 year oldgirl, her name is Leah,

and Leah stood forChrist and has been held

by the terrorist so I wanteveryone who hears this

to pray for Leah, she's agenuine heroine of the faith

in this era.

- And there are many ofthem there in Nigeria.

We appreciate them and we'llbe praying for her as well.

- [Narrator] When you give,

smiles grow bigger.

Where you care,

homes are heavier.

When you comfort,

(gentle orchestra music)

the hurt goes away.

(gentle orchestra music)

When we all come togetherto love, miracles happen.

- It was a historicmoment for the Middle East

and U.S's relations

when the U.S. Embassyofficially opened in Jerusalem.

Israel has already felt theeffects of the U.S. decision.

The Hamas terror groupdirected young Palestinians

to storm the border at Gaza.

Around the world, Jews arefacing growing hostilities,

not because of the U.S. Embassy move,

but simply because they are Jewish.

Here to discuss this rising anti-Semitism

especially in Germany,is Rabbi Abraham Cooper.

He's with the Simon Weisenthal Center

and he joins us now from Jerusalem.

First, Rabbi Cooper,

I know you attended theembassy dedication ceremony.

So, what was the mood of the people there?

- Well it was kind of anout of body experience

of the both the Jewishleaders and the Christians

who came from the U.S.

A really transformative moment.

The United States, just as HarryTruman did in 1947 and '48,

made a choice by apresident overriding a lot

of opposition to do the right thing,

and to validate 3500years of Jewish history.

It also means that thosewho hate the United States,

i.e. the Iranian Mullahs, theirhatred for the Little Satan,

i.e. this Jewish state ofIsrael, only increases.

- Tell me what's going on in Germany?

I saw that a poll showedthat 51% of Germans think

Israel treats the Palestinians

like the Nazis treated theJews during the Holocaust.

So, how is it that the Germanscame to that conclusion?

- Well I think mostlybecause the daily news feeds

on European networks,including the German ones,

going back to the Intifadas

of the 1990s, piled on Israel.

Simply turned Israel from

the David in the area,surrounded by hostile neighbors,

to the bullying Goliath.

And for many younger Germanswho don't have any connection

whatsoever to the events ofthe 20th century, and Nazism,

and the genocide againstthe Jewish people.

A lot of them haveswallowed that lie whole

and it's very difficult to turn it back.

The main challenge right now,

is the baggage, the anti-Jewish baggage

that many immigrants who came,

and refugees who came fromthe Arab or Muslim world

brought from their societieshas not been mitigated.

It has not been dealt with,

it hasn't been challenged by Germans,

and as a result for the first time,

you have Jewish kids in public school

being bullied, being attacked.

You have the Israel flag being burned

in the streets of Germany.

And all of the anti-hate laws

that Germany has prided itself on,

have not really been applied to some

of the hateful Imams whohave said terrible things

from pulpits in Germanyagainst the Jewish people.

- [Gary] Right here in the U.S.,

a 14-year-old Yeshiva student

was punched in the face repeatedly

by a stranger in New York City.

Now how concerned should American Jews be

about rising anti-Semitism,right here in the USA?

- Well you know the statistics will go up

and they will go down.

One of the things that our neighbors

don't really understandabout American Jewery is

that our Synagogues,

our Yeshivo, our Jewish Day schools,

our public institutions have had to have,

sometimes armed guards andserious perimeter security.

You have a lot of youngerpeople who feel empowered

to act against a people who don't look

or don't act like thembecause they can get away

with it online, theymay be inspired about it

from the internet or social media,

and they're encouraged to take action.

Now if that sounds eerily reminiscent

of what's been going on with ISIS

and other terrorist groups,yes that's the same sort

of psychological basis.

We're also deeply concerned by

too many examples of AmericanImams from coast to coast,

who have repeated genocidal,

anti-Semitism from their pulpits.

And haven't been held accountable,

not by the members of their mosques

and not by authorities inthese different communities.

So we need to make sure thatthere's a level playing field

in applying American valueswhen we deal with hate speech

and we deal with hate crimes.
