To which protestors does the bishop (and apparently you by extension) refer to?
ISIS was/is an issue in the ME. That's what happens when you have religion trumping democratic norms. When it's YOUR religion that's doing bad things, it's not fashionable to protest, criticize or even acknowledge it. And in these countries, it's not safe to do so either.
If you refer to protestors in OUR country, which possibly you are--then ask your fellow Christians. I don't remember seeing Christians organizing protests against ISIS. And there's a good reason for it. What would it get you? Our government is already on-board with the anti-ISIS thing. We are already against them, and doing something, both present and past administration, although one can argue if it's enough or too much in either case.
People are more likely to protest when there's a clear course of action they urgently want their government to follow, and they believe that making their voices heard by their elected representatives might make a difference.
In the case of the US government's actions involving ISIS, there is no clear idea from left or right in this country what to do about it exactly, where enough people could rally around this course of action.

Verified answer
The protesters don't care about the Christians murdered by Islam around the world. Christians and their beliefs don't fit into the liberal agenda.
Aren't USA troops the Christian protectors?
