Will Grigg?s Liberty Minute

November 9, 2010

Two weeks before the October 31 massacre in Baghdad?s Our Lady of Salvation Church, Archbishop Matti Shaba Matoka of the Assyrian Catholic Church warned that Christians are being purged from Iraq and the region, largely as a result of the U.S. invasion.

Iraq is convulsed by ?a situation of instability and trials and wars? [t]he last being the American occupation?. Since the year 2003, Christians are the victims of a killing situation, which has provoked a great emigration from Iraq?. Seven years have passed and Christianity is still bleeding. Where is the world conscience??

Archbishop Matoka and many others have come to suspect that ?there is a plan to empty the Middle East of Christians and that Iraq is one of the victims?.?

The scores of worshippers slaughtered by Islamic militants on October 31 are joined by hundreds of thousands who have been killed or driven from their homes in what amounts to a U.S.-abetted religious cleansing of Christians from Iraq.

Let us take back the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free.
