Not just one pilot was injured, but both pilots, and a passenger...

We'll probably hear very little more about it.

"LARGEST EVER MIDDLE EASTERN CHRISTIAN CONFERENCE"
by Jeremy Reynalds

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "According to a press release issued before the event to be stressed during the meeting was the importance of assisting the nearly 2.5 million Assyrian Christians in Iraq who have seen 40,000 of their own leave Iraq in recent days.

According to a press release by meeting organizers, these individuals are being terrorized daily by radical Moslem elements in the country in spite of strong support from the Iraqi Government and multinational forces on the ground.

A convention spokesman said in a news release, "In the space of a generation the non-Moslem population of the Middle East has gone from nearly 20 percent to now under two percent. The community not only wants to see democracy and freedom come to the region, but to see the historic balance in the Middle East restored (as) this imbalance is the true cause of the problems in the Middle East."
