Excerpt from Defying Deletion by André Anton, Lamassu Productions. Documentary film screening Defying Deletion: The Fight Over Iraq's Nineveh Plains Genocide is taking place against the indigenous Assyrians in post-invasion Iraq. Since the US led invasion in 2003, Christian Assyrians have experienced tremendous persecution and suffering. Over 50 of their churches have been bombed, hundreds of them have been killed and hundreds of thousands of them have been forced to flee Iraq and take refuge in unwelcoming countries like Syria, Jordan and Turkey. They are experiencing one of the world's largest humanitarian crises. |
