CNN = LOL
Maybe we need an airlift for Iraqi Christians.
I laugh at CNN too, but apparently the situation is so dire there that even (Arabist) CNN reported it.
Since when does the CNN care what happens to Christians regardless of their nationality?
The Jews in Nazi Germany had no way to run. Christians in Iraq at this point in time can run. I urge them to do so.
Get out while the getting is good.
“CNN = LOL”
Really? Do you think this article is a lie and that our war in Iraq has not been an unadulterated disaster for Eastern Christians in Iraq? Or do you think that Eastern Christians are expendable if that advances the cause of our Shiite and Sunni allies?
And an airlift back for all muslims.
If this article is true (it’s from CNN for cryin’ out loud), then WHY did they just give CHRISTmas standing as a national holiday in Iraq?!
I would differenciate PR from real life, if you know what I mean.
btt
.
The story and fate of the Iraqi Christians has been told before and from various sources. Nothing new here, and I’ve read often that half are already refugees outside Iraq, and that it is dangerous for those still there.
When I heard the news that Christmas had been made a national holiday, it seemed almost like an insult in view of the realities.
Since when have neocons cared about Christians in Iraq? I can’t think of one story in the Weekly Standard, Commentary, Frontpage, etc. on the worsening plight of Christians in Iraq over the last decade. Ever wonder why?
The holiday is a fig leaf. You would know this if you follow the news. The Christian Exodus has been going on for years but after Bush invaded.
The complete opposite of Coulter’s “plan” has occurred in Iraq over the last decade. Yes, there was an invasion but there are fewer, not more, Christians there.
Moving right along.
Those who pay attention to the real news will realize what a sham this is.
Then kindly tell us what you know of real life in Iraq.
At least CNN covered it. I can’t think of a single article in the neocon press, or by by neocons, on this.
