Archbishop of Canterbury: Christians Are Suffering In The Middle East Because Of The American Global Project


Broken-clock-is-right-twice-a-day alert.

From the Daily Mail:


Christians in the Middle East are facing persecution because of British and American foreign policy, the Archbishop of Canterbury will claim today.

Dr Rowan Williams will say that many Christians have been forced to flee their homes in the Holy Land because of 'appalling pressure' from extremist Islamic groups.

And he will warn that historic communities risk becoming mere 'museum pieces' in the 'theme park' Middle East because of the military policies of the West.

During an appearance in London yesterday, he said there was a risk that the region could become a "monochrome" area dominated by an "unfriendly" form of Islam.

Indigenous Christian groups were increasingly being seen as a 'foreign and aggressive' presence, he added.

The Archbishop will make the comments in a speech at Westminster Cathedral later today.
He will say that historically Christians have played a leading role in social, cultural and intellectual change in the Middle East.


But historic communities now risked becoming mere 'museum pieces' in a 'theme park' region as a result of persecution.

In part this was due to an extremist form of Islam filling the void left following the peak of Arab nationalism, the head of the Church of England will claim.

But he also blames the role of Western governments.

Dr Williams will say: 'Indigenous Christian community throughout the region have suffered from being associated with the American global project, and indeed the British global project as part of the American global project.'

He cites a recent visit to Syria in which he met some of the half million refugees who had fled Iraq since 2003.


The Archbishop is correct here, but for exactly the wrong reason. The reason Iraq has gone lethal on its own Christian population is because Sharia law has gained power in Iraq, having been enshrined in the Constitution.
America has set a goal of creating a "Democracy" in Iraq. But, Democracy does not merely mean voting. When we use the phrase Democracy in the United States, what we mean is "Democratic Republic." This means, yes, everyone gets to vote, but above that our God-granted rights are protected by a Constitution.

If this was true in Iraq, then Sharia law would not be enshrined in the Iraqi Constitution as a primary source of law, because Sharia is a violation of human rights.

We have created an Islamic abomination in Iraq and Iraqi Christians have suffered for it.

The problem is that The Arch Bishop probably wouldn't be able to correctly identify the policies that are causing the problems

Pastorius said...

Yeah, because the problem is

Sharia

and he, of course, wants that to become law in the UK.

Like I said, "broken clock."

The correct number is over 2 million.

The "Islam only" Constitution and the empowerment of the Shiite whack-jobs in Iraq originate in Washington D.C., moreover, the vile cover-up of the crucifixions, expulsions and destruction of the Assyrian Christian community is orchestrated by our own [traitorous] politicians and media whores.

I know the "neighbourhood" well. What we have done in the name of "Democracy" will have us all burning in hell.

Fuck the Moslems and screw the politicians! For two decades, the US leadership has waged an unrelenting, Pro-Moslem, Anti-Jew and Christian Jihad in the Middle East. I have seen far to much, up close and personal, to participate in this un-holy crusade against G_d's people.

That pussy Rowan Williams, or B.Hussein.O', or Hillary's existence does not justify a campaign of genocide against innocent Christians and Jews.

Can our Syrian friend testify to this personally. Has he had personal experience?

Maybe we could talk to him about this on the show.
