Send guns. Without guns the humanitarian aid will just be seized from the Christians by the muslims.

Aren’t the KOC always supposed to be armed?

Are they going in there to fight?

I do believe there are now Christian militas that have stepped up to the plate.

Israel should take over more of its Biblical land grant. This will not only help her protect her people from the incessant IslamoNazi terrorist threats and attacks (with more now to be financed by Obama’s $150 Billion ‘gift’ to his Islamonazi pals)

but this will make room so that Israel can resettle some of the Muslim-persecuted and Muslim-threatened Christians now living in dangerous places like Iran, Iraq, Syria, etc.

Israel can do this for and with the Christians, just needs support instead of all the sabotage and backstabbing from WashingtonDC

The Christians have been in the Mid-east much longer than their Muslim murderers

The Swiss Guard are. The KoC’s ceremoniously carry a sword, but I doubt that too many are a Basil Rathbone or Errol Flynn... ;)

Thank you Knights for helping again in another tremendously worthy cause. The Middle East Christians, and others, are in my prayers each day.

Errol Flynn was exactly what I was thinking of :)

That's so funny! Great minds think alike! ;)
Flynn had a stunt double for his earlier swordfight scenes; Rathbone, a WWI hero, was the best fencer in Hollywood, and Flynn was afraid to fight him at first! The two fought in, "Captain Blood" and Flynn was backing off. They used his double for most of the scenes.

When Michael Curtiz directed the two in, "The Adventures of Robin Hood", Flynn was doing it again. Curtiz had a side bar with Rathbone, who came out smiling. This time when Flynn came out, Rathbone said to him as they began the fight scene, "I'm still making $***.** more than you, you dirty little Australian!!!"

It worked! Flynn, an agile former boxer from Tasmania, got his fight back, and jumped into the scene with vigor! He later received an apology from his costar... I just loved those two! Could never quite figure out who was the most handsome.

Major Rathbone, who, with his fiancee sat with the Lincolns in the President's Box at Ford's Theatre, was a cousin of Basil...

Thanks for listening! I'm a movie nut, because some of my most wonderful times with my Dad and my Mom, too, were spent watching movies: and Dad knew all the details!

God bless you!
Grateful
