How insecure can one religion be?

#4 Paul D, Very. Think of Stalin and Mao. Anyone who questioned their absolute authority was a threat and had to be eliminated.

Now multiply that by 10 and you get Islam.

They just like killing people. Always did. Muhammad just gave them an excuse.

#6 Too bad. Baraq Hussein lets millions of undocumented Mexican invaders into this country but a hand full of Christans from Iraq? Not so much.

#7 The Catholic Church world-wide is mobilizing to support these folks, and hopefully find them new homes. Its sad that they are being forced from millennia of peaceful existence in their original homeland.

#10 France offered to take in the Christians. They may not have thought it was quite so many, though. I wonder if Israel would want some to replace the Thais, et al who replaced the Palestinians after the security walls went up.

#11 OWG Global Federal Union(s) > Proposed "PERSIAN GULF", "MIDDLE EAST", + "ISLAMIC" UNIONS, ...@ETC. = NO JEWS [ergo NO STATE OF ISRAEL ALLOWED IN "UNION(S)"?] = NO CHRISTIANS = NO NON-MUSLIMS???

Period???

* DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > [Catholic Online] CATHOLICS KILLED AT MASS IN IRAQ, EXTREMIST MUSLIMS INVADE CHURCH, MURDER PRIESTS.

Circa 50 Persons repor killed in the attack.

* RUSSIA TODAY > "ISLAMIC STATE" SUPPORTERS LEAFLET CENTRAL LONDON, DECLARING "DAWN OF A NEW ERA".

TO AMERIKA THEN - THEY'LL BE SAFE THERE!

Oh wait ... ...
