Muslim extremists recently shot their way into a home and executed 2 children because the family is Christian.
Christians fear an Easter massacre/attack on them in their churches.
Pressure has been increasing on them. "Neighbors are now receiving threatening letters.
Some of the threats are from unknown groups," "They say, 'You have to be a Muslim, or else we will kill you.'"
Late last month, the family of the two murdered children received a note warning that they would be killed and "doomed to hell." The next day, the gunman came and killed the two children, each with an AK-47 rifle shot to the head that left blood flowing across the living room.
Their mother and several other children in the house were allowed to live, presumably to tell others.
"There have been hundreds of attacks. Every day we hear of a new attack."
Estimates are that up to 200 Iraqi Christians have been killed by Muslim extremists since the war began last year.

The situation seems so hopeless for them. May God have mercy on these brave and desperate people. May religious tolerance become a way of life for all of Iraq. (Well, one can dream anyway.)

God rest their little souls and bring comfort to their families.

And of course we should contrast this to the malignant crybabies we are supposed to care about in another posting at this website.

It is time for Christians, including the Pope, to be outraged at this hypocricy.
