I will say this much, though; it sound positively bizarre that anybody would flee to Syria for safe haven. I mean, "Syria" sounds like "Hezbollah" or "Islamic Jihad" country, not a safehouse for Christians. Go figure.

"Go figure"?! Much simpler explanation is that the official image is false. Middle East Christians live there and they know better what is going on around them than the average FOX viewer.

When Iran was first to made such allegations it was dismissed by US government as rabid propaganda (at that time Iraq was being supported in its war against Iran). Now the allegations became the absolute truth. Some scepticism would be in place.

Skepticism? Fair enough...Here is a pile of corpses, victims of the 1988 gas attack on Halabja, Iraq. I doubt the folks in Halabja are very skeptical about any claims of WMD being present in Saddam's Iraq...

The FOX comment definately has a wiff of troll's bait to it... I don't watch FOX, I'm too busy typing up replies on FreeRepublic while listening to the Savage Nation on my headphones. Alternative media, that's what it's all about...

But okay, I'll nibble on the bait a bit. If FOX viewers would say "Go figure", then CNN/CBS/ABC/NBC/MSNBC viewers would say "Its those murderous Israelis. If only they would quit killing those innocent Palestinians who only seek a homeland, then Syria would be a kinder, friendler nation." NPR listeners would save the speeches and simply say "F*** Bush."
