So the Christians simply go get red paint and mark everyone. Spread the pain!

And I can say that my Assyrian Iraqi relatives do love America. They all became citizens, and none of them has ever expressed an interest in returning to Iraq, not even to visit. Their allegiance is to the US, not Iraq.

Heck, in many ways they’re more American than my native-born relatives—they always vote, they’re far more interested in talking about politics and important issues facing this country, and they’re much more self-reliant (less likely to look to government to solve a problem).

Our Lady of Salvation? What religion is that, Catholic?

Our Lady of Salvation is the name of the Cathedral in Baghdad where more than 50 catholics, including 2 priests and several children, were recently murdered by terrorists. In case you missed it, here are some images of that day.

Iraq's top Catholic prelate, Chaldean Cardinal Emmanuel III Delly is seen with the coffins of two slain priests at a funeral mass in Baghdad, Iraq, Tuesday, Nov. 2, 2010.

Yet we import muslims, and export islamic republics.

Think about that. We have fought three wars to set up islamic republics, one in the heart of Europe. We deny visas to Christians fleeing our new islamic client states, yet you see muslims coming over by the plane load.

The US is actively anti Christian.

Yes. Our military is the enforcement arm of the Wahhabi Kingdom.

In the future, lets send them our “Gay Brigades”.
