Iraqi Christians Seek Protection from Islamists

Let’s see, if Christians desired to be like the first Christians or even Jesus, we would not seek to attack anyone, but let Muslims who claim they are in the religion of peace start acting like Muhammad and things go to pieces!

Iraqi Christians demand protection from Al-Qaeda

The leaders of Iraq’s Christian minority on Thursday called on the country’s beleaguered government to protect their community from attacks by Al Qaeda-inspired Muslim extremists.

In a joint statement, Patriarch Mar Dinka IV of the Catholic Assyrian Church of the East and the Chaldean Catholic Patriarch Emmanuel Delly of Babylon said Baghdad’s remaining Christians were facing persecution.

They blamed the so-called “Islamic State of Iraq”, an alliance of Islamist insurgent groups that serves as an Al-Qaeda front, for much of the violence.

“Christians in a number of Iraqi regions, especially those under the control of the so-called Islamic State of Iraq, have faced blackmail, kidnapping and displacement,” the statement said.

The churchmen expressed surprise that Al-Qaeda’s influence has “reached parts of Baghdad while the government has kept silent and not taken a firm stance to stop their expansion.”

They are surprised by the silence regarding their plight, but this is the new Iraq. The new MUSLIM nation. But some parts of Iraq are safer than others for Christians.


As a relatively wealthy community, however, many Christians fell prey to kidnap and ransom gangs and many — probably more than half — of them have fled the country or moved to the relative safety of Iraqi Kurdistan.

Those who are running Christians off want to be like the founder of their cult.


Now there are reports that Salafist groups such as Al-Qaeda, fundamentalists who believe Islam can be renewed by returning to the values of the era of the Prophet Mohammed, are targeting Christians on purely sectarian grounds.

In recent weeks a “fatwa” or Muslim religious decree has been issued by extremists ordering Christians to flee Dura, a southern suburb of Baghdad which is a hotbed of Sunni insurgent groups.

You see, it’s the religion of peace, because they gave the Christians warning to run before actually trying to kill them, yea that’s it…that’s the ticket!

Now anyone who tells you that Muhammad allowed non-Muslims to live with Muslims in peace, you ask them how much of an ADDITIONAL TAX non-Muslims had to pay (the dhimma) for that supposed peace, which was really nothing more than non-Muslims paying into a religious protection racket. And it is still applied to non-Muslims in many Muslim nations. Just like the slave trading, marriages to 9 year old girls and so on. It’s all so peaceful when you let them do their dirt.

All those mostly Christian troops fighting in Iraq, to create a new Muslim nation, while most of the native Christians are having to run for their lives, at the same time the Muslim kids get a new school. Is it just me, or does something about that not jive well with you?
