The Arab Spring

The Arab Spring Saddam Husain, Mubarak and soon Assad will go… and we can be jubilant and call it democracy and freedom. But this does not include the Christians, In Iraq there are hardly any left, in Egypt they are under attack and when Assad falls the Christian Arab will hounded, those who are no able to escape…killed. The rebels in Syria we now supply weaponry to will, like they are doing in Egypt, be ready to enforce their odious idea of Islam. We, in the west must, if we are upright take In the refuges and not let them fester in some camps and fed by the Red Cross. Give our Christian brothers a new spring, far from the battlefield of hate and ignorance.

Hi Jan - The Arab Spring prompted me to read again about the Christmas truces in WWI. Moments suspended in time until it all started again. We should live for your last two lines. Kathy
