The most bizarre aspect of this is that Saddam Hussein actually protected Christians in Iraq (which is why so many were safe there until his government fell). I remember when the US invaded, Iraqi Christians in Michigan warned what would happen in the vacuum that would be created in his absence (I believe he had actually helped build a Chaldean-Rite Church in their area). His deputy prime minister (Aziz?) is a Christian (I believe he was just sentenced to death for some thing or other).
US military should have a high-level task force to fully investigate these incidents and target the attackers involved for severe reprisal. It is our responsibility. This genocide against Christians is one of the worst legacies of “Operation Iraqi Freedom.”
That is because Sadadam was a secularist and ran a secular government.
Unfortunately Iraq seems to be an Islamist country now.
