The Rebel in Iraq: What can change the future for Christians in Telskuf?
I’m reporting from the ancient city of Telskuf, Iraq, that is 100 per cent Christian. Some 1,400 people lived in this town before it was invaded by ISIS— not once, but twice.
Thanks to the generosity of donors to our SaveTheChristians.com campaign, we’re here handing out food to families in this former ISIS front-line stronghold.
They’re finally getting help, however, the future of this Christian town is in doubt.
I spoke with one official on the ground who said this is the final chapter for Christians in Iraq and he has no hope that peace will come to the land, even if ISIS goes away.
He worries about what’s waiting in the wings after ISIS is gone, especially because their numbers have plummeted so much that after this, there will be no more Christians in Iraq.
While the despair is understandable, that’s why we’re here and why we’re asking for your help too.

Muslims have had far too much assistance with the BS they bring on themselves through constant fighting and blowing each up as per their sickening Koran. White people have nothing to do with this. Muslims should not be brought to this country because all they want to do is complain, dominate and take over our country, so shut up and go away.

Tammie Putinski-Zandbelt commented 2017-07-15 10:18:45 -0400Ayan Ray, your link is laughable. Wiki is a source used by amateurs, or lazy apologists.
If you would like more accurate information to get educated, I suggest you search the Global Terrorism Database which has been tracking terrorist attacks for approx. 45 years. You will be enlightened!

Muslims killing muslims who they think are the wrong kind of muslim is not a product of Christianity, you can lay the blame at the feet of Mohammedans. Islamic texts prescribe this. It is barbaric.
Ayan Ray said in part, “And how about helping Christian victims of terrorist incidents carried out by White Christians?
In EU, White people are responsible for the vast majority of terrorist incidents.”
You need to provide source material if you want to make such claims.
How many “White Christians” scream “I love you Jesus, or, Jesus this is for you” before attacking anyone? -
Ayan Ray commented 2017-07-15 04:24:24 -0400Muslims are victims of terrorism to a far greater extent than non-Muslims.
“In cases where the religious affiliation of terrorism casualties could be determined, Muslims suffered between 82 and 97% of terrorism-related fatalities over the past five years.”
“Between 2004 and 2013 about half of all terrorist attacks, and 60% of fatalities due to terrorist attacks, took place in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan – all of which have a mostly Muslim population.”
“Most terrorist attacks are rooted in geopolitics. Religion is certainly a part of them, but it is not the only part.”

How about helping Muslims too?
And how about helping Christian victims of terrorist incidents carried out by White Christians?
In EU, White people are responsible for the vast majority of terrorist incidents.

Or is pointing out that Muslims are victims of terrorism to a far greater extent than non-Muslims and in EU, White people are responsible for the vast majority of terrorist incidents not good for generating web traffic and selling books? -

Catherine Rochford commented 2017-07-14 21:57:27 -0400All the middle east Christians should come to Canada and America now and the muslim migration to Canada and America needs to stop now. Christians are the real refugees, their lives are in grave danger. Muslims want to control the entire middle east, let them have it and shove it, their lives aren’t in any danger at all.

Bravo Zulu commented 2017-07-14 15:45:50 -0400They are still targets.
The west will not help them.
The islamics will kill them.
As soon as the western military mentors leave it will be back to the status quo.
Leave now – while you can. -
Garry Grams commented 2017-07-14 15:40:03 -0400What can change the future for Christians in Telskuf?
I hate to say it but – GET OUT while you can. From the whole islamo-crazed middle east. Leave the cesspool to the Arabs. They deserve each other. -
