    I get asked often, what’s the future look like for in ? I do not know if we will survive. I do know we need the diaspora to support the Christian community that remains in Iraq. We can’t get so comfy in the West that we forget our persecuted people in the East.

    Congratulations to Nadia Murad Basee! I am so proud of . She’s a true symbol of courage and strength for all victims of ISIS, and she’s an inspiration for all of us that work on the genocide.

    A YPG person sent a threatening note indicating he knows where I am. He’s upset that reported on what Kurdish-YPG are doing to Syrian Christians. Are you proud of your YPG “allies” who are violent with Christians & threaten Americans?

    The two kidnapped bishops of Aleppo - outside the Church at Minster Abbey in Kent. If they are alive, we pray for them - if they are martyrs - they pray for us.

    I have met with Mr. Khan & his team, on behalf of victims of ISIS, & I appreciate his genuine concern for the victims. I look forward to meeting with them again soon in Baghdad.

    We want Iran to stop using your PMU-Shabak thugs (the new ISIS) to terrorize Iraq’s indigenous Syriac Christian community in Bartella, Iraq. Targeting indigenous communities violates international law.

    Saving Christianity in Syria is of big concern for the team & me. We actively work on the matter. There are still many forces inside & outside DC aiming to extend the disastrous situation of Iraqi Christians post-2003 to Syrian Christians.

    Oh wow! I remember this. It was like a white pages directory of all Chaldean families living in Michigan. I think the community started publishing it sometime in the 1990s.

    Thanks to George W. Bush & neocons , , , Elliott Abrams, there are only 30 Christian families left in . In 2003, there were 20,000-25,000. Also, not surprised that Bolton is nicknamed “President Bolton” for trying to takeover from .

    Shabaks (Shia-Kurds from Iran) cause many problems. They are forcing a demographic change to Bartella, a town belonging to native Iraqi Syriacs. This is harassment of indigenous groups by & PMU in violation of int’l law on rights of indigenous peoples.

    Reminder to Iraqis: Only way Chaldeans have been able to maintain Iraq’s native & ancient Chaldean-Babylonian language is by having insular towns where all residents are Chaldeans & speak the language. If you take our last towns then your ancestors’ ancient language also dies!

    This is what Iraqis do to Chaldeans & other natives. We only have few native towns left in Iraq in Nineveh Plains, Duhok/Zakho, Erbil; yet, Iraqi Shabaks/Arabs & Kurds are constantly encircling our remaining towns to take them over. All our towns in Central & S. Iraq are gone.

    Saudi Arabia is the world’s biggest exporter of terrorism. The Saudis funded 9/11 & the genocide against Iraqi & Syrian Christians. Global attacks against Christians continue to rise; & these types of messages tell the Saudis, “keep going, all is well.” This is disappointing!
