Iraqi Archbishop: ISIS and radical Islamists are targeting Christians for extermination (VIDEO)

An Iraqi archbishop is calling on the world to "wake up" and help displaced Iraqi Christians who are seeking asylum. Tens of thousands of Iraqi Christians have been forced from their homes by ISIS, Lauren Green reported today. She said that survivors tell stories of rape, murder and starvation. People who make it to refugee camps live in 3-foot by 6-foot prefabricated homes. Their lives are in limbo as they live without work or income. Chaldean Catholic Archbishop Bashar Warda of Irbil said that the situation is nothing short of genocide, and he criticized the U.S. government for not offering asylum. He also said that the world needs to wake up and take action to help. “Asylum seekers come in all religions … all races, all political leanings,” Deputy State Department Spokesperson Matt Toner said. “What matters is that we look at their cases individually and whether they have compelling reasons to seek asylum.”

This is the beginning of what will become WWIII culminating in the catastrophic defeat of these people at Armageddon. We Christians will be watching from the mezzanine until we join Christ in the final battle at Armageddon. (It is a "DONE" deal - we've already won.)

In the meantime, we must stand against the Power of Darkness, over whom we have all power (Luke 10:19), stand with our fellow believers, and be lights to those needing the Lord.

....Or be suffering for Christ until He returns. Yes we will be in the battle, but also via suffering for Him.

Not unlike the federal government and pop culture.

They’ll all lose, by the way.

Gates of hell and all that. :)

History repeats itself. Following the New York Times leadership, we see the same leftist media that denied the genocide of the Ukrainian peasants by Stalin, and kept silent during the Jewish Holocaust by the Nazis, and the Cambodian mass murder by the Communists, now keeps an accomplice silence while the Muslim are exterminating the Christian in the Middle East and Africa.

Although FDR knew of the mass extermination of Jews, he denied refuge in U.S. to the few Jews that were able to escape from Nazi occupied Europe. Now Obama is denying refuge to the Christians who are being slaughtered by Muslims while Obama is receiving in U.S. tens thousands of Muslim culprits for the mass extermination of Christians.

Meanwhile Obama play golf and keeps ranting of an oncoming weather change Armageddon, and the Pope Francis denounces the sins of Capitalism while he demands a world without frontiers that will open the doors for the world caliphate through the demographic invasion of Europe and U.S. by the Muslims.

They will get no help from the pro-Islamist American regime, and frankly, not enough people in this country care what happens to Christians overseas.

Yup. It will all come down soon enough. But I believe God will give the world a final respite for a few more decades as He compels a last ingathering to “come and dine” with Jesus before it all comes crashing down.

So are homosexual activists via judges, and even some "conservatives" here, who consider failure to uphold a court decree that holds God in contempt as warranting imprisonment without bail.

That’s right. We can scream and holler about moral debauchery of the the gay rights oxymoron. That’s fine on a moral level. But it doesn’t work on the legal level.

What’s the LEGAL argument against “gay rights”? THE CONSTITUTION. The feds have NO constitutional authority at all to interfere with marriage or with how the states and people deal with the sodomites.
