Iraqi Christians Face Genocide, Demand Separate Province and Right to Exist

Iraqi Christians now face genocide and are claiming a “right of existence” for all non-Muslim minorities as Islamists continue their bloody holy war against all who dare profess belief in anything but Islam.

Since 2003, hundreds of thousands of Iraqi Christians have either fled to the northern Iraqi province of Kurdistan and other countries, or have been massacred while the leftist media, the Islamapologist brigade at the White House, and even the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops maintain complete silence about their status. Regardless of what one’s views may be on the War in Iraq, there is no excuse for turning a blind eye to genocide. No matter who the perpetrators and victims are. The world needs to know the truth about the Christians of Iraq.

Freedom of conscience is one of the most important tenets of Christianity, but its infringement is among the harshest provisions of Sharia Law. While Islamapologists in the Obama Administration and the leftist media busy themselves with defending the virtues of Islam, smearing as bigots all who dare question the “‘religion of peace,” no one on the Left is mentioning how the Christians of Iraq are faring under Islamists who make up the majority in Iraq.

This is horrible. All the blood and treasure our nation gave to give the Iraqi’s freedom - now this?

I’m beginning to believe that Iraq was a mistake. Some people (religions?) just can NOT handle freedom. The “religion” must be changed.

Ya think?

This was NEVER about freedom for the Iraqis -- which is why the operation had to be named Iraqi Freedom to sell it. Bush's fault. Cheney's fault. And all the miserable whores, liars, and jingoes who were at their side, leading our blundering country into dishonor and ruin.

This is why you only go into the Middle East with nukes. Social engineering with Muslims never works...and it has hurt the small Christian communities in the Islamic Terrorist States.
