Catholic Culture: Senator Ted Cruz walked off the stage at a Washington conference on the persecution of Christians on September 10, after he was roundly booed for a keynote address in which he focused on support for Israel.

The controversial Texas Republican, who is often touted as a potential presidential candidate, irked an audience of Christians from the Middle East when he launched into a defense of Israel. The event, a conference In Defense of Christians, was dedicated to raising awareness of the persecution of Christian minorities. More on this here with links.
