IRAQ AND CHRISTIANS REDUX

Leilah Nadir doesn't think her Christian relatives in Iraq are any safer:
Refugee officials in Damascus now estimate that Iraqi Christians, about 3 per cent of the country's total population, make up 20 per cent of Iraqi refugees in Syria.

If you think about how hard life was under Saddam Hussein's regime, to have made it so much worse seems particularly horrendous and irresponsible.

It's worth your time to read it.
