The tragedy of continuing Islamic persecution of Christians in Iran and Iraq. An informed article in the weekend’s press,

In Iraq, Christians are fleeing in droves. UN statistics indicate that 15 per cent of all Iraqi refugees in Syria are of Christian background, although they represented only 3 per cent of the population when US troops entered in 2003.

The UN High Commissioner for Refugees estimates that between 300,000 and 400,000 Christians have been forced out of Iraq since 2003. And Christians have left because the message from Sunni militants and Shia ayatollahs is clear: You have no future here.

There is now an alarming possibility there will be no significant Christian communities in Iraq or Iran by century’s end. Christian schools, communal halls, historical sites and churches are being appropriated by national and provincial governments, government-sponsored Muslim organisations and radical Islamist groups. Economic and personal incentives are offered to those who adopt Islam.
