Our bishops and nuns have been kidnapped, our political leader killed by torture. After our Christian villages have been occupied, our churches have been destroyed and even mass graves were found (for example in Saddad).
According to the latest information dated December 16th: Two thousand Christians are held hostages in the hands of the Islamists. On Saturday night rebels of Al-Nusra occupied the Christian city Kanaye (in Idlib region). Since then, the Christian residents of Kanaya are being held hostages. The Islamists have given Christians two alternatives: Islam or death.
Why is the West just watching?
How much longer can the Christians are left in the lurch?
Isn’t the international community under obligation to protect the Christians and all other ethnic and religious minorities in Syria ?
