Its one thing to post about these things in a political context, but hailing these lies and garbage headlines as if they’re glad tidings from the kingdom of Heaven is disgraceful.

God will work through and accomplish His purposes through evil men like Putin. But to suggest he is some hero of the faith is abominable. And Assad and ISIS are both evil.

[Cronos]

Assad is nowhere near as evil as the Islamic State. Assad has protected Christians and under his rule Syria was a secular state where Orthodox, Catholics, Oriental and Protestant Christians lived in peace with Sunnis, Shias and with Alawites, Yazidis etc.

Putin and Russia has definitely done a lot more to help Christians in the Middle East than anything the USA has done since 2003.
