Yesterday I received an e-mail with a heart-felt plea to place a blurb similar to the ones I have for Darfur and for Burma in the right-hand column of this blog. This one would be for the Christians of Iraq. I just now saw on 60 Minutes a segment on Iraqi Christians and their current persecution at the hands of the Muslims there.

There is little difference in attitude between the Mughals of old and the Iraqi Muslims of today. My heart hurts for the Christians of Iraq. They certainly should be left in peace to practice their religion without fear.
So to the Christian group that sent me that request:
