WHY is the world silent while Christians are being
slaughtered in the Middle East and Africa? Islamic State terrorists have begun
their promised killing of Christians in Mosul, and they have started with the
children.

For the first time in 2,000 years, there are no Christians
in Mosul. What will become of other Iraqi Christians? A Christian Holocaust is
in our mist. We are actually calling this a Christian genocide… Day by day, it
is getting worse and worse. More children are being beheaded. Mothers are being
raped and killed. Fathers are being hung. Right now, 300,000 Christians are
fleeing Iraq and living in neighboring cities.”
There remains a vulnerable Assyrian population in Iraq. As
of the invasion of Iraq in spring 2003, there still remained a substantial
minority of nearly 1.5 million Assyrians, roughly 8 percent of the total Iraqi
population. However, the recent Iraq War has been devastating for the
Assyrians, as they have been caught in the midst of vicious sectarian violence.
Presently, the Assyrian diaspora stretches across the world, from the Middle
East to Central Asia, as well as Western Europe, North America, and Australia.
While they continue to celebrate their rich cultural heritage, their modern
legacy as victims of genocide has yet to be fully recognized
