Jaquinho, you ask a good question, and it needs to be asked more, to be honest. The reason why the US and other nations do not fight for the Christians of the Middle East can be boiled down to one thing - OIL. The US kisses the backside of the Saudis, who fund all this radical Islamic terrorism with money we pay them for oil, simple as that. Unfortunately, the Christians of the Middle East cannot offer such a commodity to the West, so they are ignored. The West barely supports Israel anymore, much less Middle Eastern Christians, and in due time Western powers will capitulate to the radical Pan-Arabist, militant Islamic agenda if they are not awakened to what's in store for them. In the meantime, the innocent Christians suffer, forgotten to the world who could care less due to greed. The whole thing is sick, and God's judgement is coming upon America and the West because of it - we gave the supposed "hand of fellowship" to the Saudis only to be stabbed in the back on Sept. 11th. We would be wise to take those tragic events as a warning before it's too late. The Assyrians and other Christians of the Middle East are blessed of God, and He loves them dearly; the US could benefit much, and be blessed of God, by sticking up for the Assyrians, Maronites, and others, as well as re-affirming our ties to Israel. Just the ramblings of a humble Maronite paralegal, though - you can draw from them as you wish.

Hi, dear friend!
Very good post!
I'm Brazilian, friend of Christ!
Against the USA hypocrisy!
Let you look, for example, the Indonesian opression in East Timor and againt
Christians!
And Indonesia, as Turkey, is supported by the mercenary USA!
USA, unafortunately, as you said, are interested in petroleum, no in Chrtist faith!
Look too the opressed Christians in Nigeria, Senegal, Iemen, etc.!

God bless the persecuted Christians!

Are you kidding me?? "The West barely supports Israel anymore". Who exactly is the biggest supplier of arms to Israel?? Who exactly has the largest Jewish charitable organizations?? Who exactly is the Israelis largest trading partner?? Who exactly recognizes and recognized the right for Israel to exist??

Or perhaps you would prefer it if the US of A would completely wipe out the Palestinians and be done with them.

USA, like France, is not a Christian country - its official religion is stated as "none" (e.g. check Encyclopaedia Britannica). Understandably, its international relations prioritise its political, economic and military security, and without an official religion, its policies are ethically malleable. USA would only fight for Assyria if Assyria’s reinstatement and security played a critical interest for America in the Middle East. As we are not a great enough interest for USA and her allies at present, the oppression of Assyrians and other Christians will attract little concern. What did Bush say? “Islam is a religion of peace.” Yea, he either lives on another planet or he is being politically shrewd.

Interestingly, the United Kingdom’s religion is officially “Church of England,” and so the question you have asked is better put before Britain. They, like all political states, have their national security to look after too, but as Christians, they have a greater deal to answer before God for their actions.

The message reads as follows:

-------------------------

Because it has nothing to do with defending poor oppressed Christians.....unless
of course you can squeaze middle eastern Christians hard enough to get
a drop of black crude oil out of them. If that were the case, then you'd
have all of Christendom crusading to save our poor arses. We need to understand
that as far as the western world is concerned, we don't count for a drop
of excreta in their plans for the middle east. We don't even rate a passing
thought.

The message reads as follows:

-------------------------

In almost all of my interactions with common folks whether at church or
other social gatherings; people don't know anything about us. some of them
didn't even know that there were any christians still living in iraq.

what does that tell you about why no one has ever acted on our behalf in
our struggles for recognition?

I think it is everyone's duty as Assyrian to bring awareness to as many
people out there as possible so that the next time they show saddam on
tv surrounded by thousands of fanatic looking people cheering him on; that
they understand that there is more to this story.
