DECEMBER 24, 2014 Christians On The Run From Iraq The Islamic State is attaining its key goal, and U.S. media find the story of limited interest. By Nina Shea
For the first time in 1,400 years, there will be no Christmas celebrations in Nineveh province, home to Iraqs largest remaining Christian community and largest non-Muslim minority, and a site of great biblical significance. This northern province, whose area is over three times larger than that of Lebanon, is now part of the Islamic States caliphate, and its Christians and churches are no longer tolerated.
What has become of Ninevehs Christians? What will be their fate?
These should be pressing concerns for America, especially its 247 million Christians. Yet the mainstream media rarely cover this story a New York Times reporter in a recent e-mail says its of limited interest, explaining that most of our readers have only vague notions of who they are anyway and why their issues are relevant to the United States. A better explanation would be that the Times and other establishment elites are reluctant to focus on the goals, rather than just the tactics, of Islamist extremist ideology. A main goal is total Islamization and it is on the verge of being realized in Iraq.

Prayers for them. I can’t even imagine.
Perhaps we could take out an ad in the Times reading: CHRISTIAN LIVES MATTER
Looks like the land of Nimrod continues to be an unhappy place.
Nachum (Nahum)
Perhaps we could take out an ad in the Times reading: CHRISTIAN LIVES MATTER
I like the idea. It was a long time ago, but Freepers once took up a collection to place a Washington Times ad.
Considering Obama only considers Christ “a” son of God, he likely doesn’t consider Christianity to be anything more than a silly faux-faith anyway.
Bunch of Christophobes.
The Christian winter did not start with Obama, but it might finish while he is office.
Of course, after all, they evidence they favor Islam over Christianity, salon.com being about the worst, while how Uganda penalizes a practice that is primarily responsible for over 40 million deaths in 33 years (39 mil. from 1981-2013, and 3.1 mil. per year), with approximately 35 million people worldwide living with HIV/AIDS in 2013 (about half of which do not know it), 3.2 million of which were children (<15 years old).
What if the consensual practice of the Lord's supper effected the like? Instead atheists and the liberal elite, serving in proxy for the devil, oppose Christian faith as if it were like AIDS, as there ethos from Hell is intrinsically opposed to that of God's.
But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death. (Proverbs 8:36)

Samaritans Purse has a firm line of operations in North Iraq. There are also quite a few smaller ministries there. One such smaller operation I get a few updates every week. The under reported story is there are Christians giving their lives trying to bring aid and run refugee camps in North Iraq.
They are also being robbed as convoys there are raided often.
The antichrist is gearing up no doubt. Communism and Marxism in Europe gained momentum in Europe and Asia post WW2 and Radical Islam in the Middle East vastly grew from mid 1970-’s present as well. It’s now here in the U.S. as well with diversity being demanded. None as such are compatible with Judaism or Christianity thus making them opposed to GOD. The Sauds & the rest of the Islamic nations are an alliance we should have never needed nor developed nor for that matter.
That's a really good idea. Would get some attention.
247 MILLION?
SOMEONE’s COUNT IS WAY OFF!
This is the land of FAGS and PRE-BOrn sacrifice!!!
Would get some attention.
And then it’ll be on to the next shiny thing.
