The whole world is fixated on the false allegation of genocide in Gaza, but it completely overlooks true genocides in Nigeria, Syria, and Iraq. That’s because the truth of Islamic jihadis slaughtering Christians doesn’t fit the woke, Islamist narrative that Christians are all eeevil European oppressors and Muslims are all innocent, oppressed brown people.
Mosul, Iraq, once had 50,000 Christian residents. Now, there are fewer than 70 Christian families remaining in the large and influential city. What could have happened? In one word: Islam.
In whatever country Muslims become the majority, they take over government and institutions, kill or abuse anyone who is not part of their particular brand of Islam, and implement harsh sharia. They have been doing the same since the seventh century, and they always will, because Islam explicitly endorses and commands murder, rape, tyranny, and many other crimes.
Cardinal Louis Raphael Sako, patriarch of the Chaldean Catholic Church, appealed to Western leaders last week as he tried to bring attention to the near-disappearance of the Iraqi Christian population.

From International Christian Concern:
Iraq’s Christian population used to be more than 1 million; now it is about half that number. The rise of the Islamic State group (ISIS), al-Qaida, and militia violence has continued to decrease the number of believers in Iraq. The implementation of the Personal Status Law — a law based on Islamic law — also allows the Islamization of minors, which can also harm young believers in the region.
To address the decline of the Christian population in Iraq, Sako examined ways to halt emigration and encourage those who had left the country to return. Sako suggested restoring properties that had been lost in conflict to these believers, providing financial compensation, and enhancing security through governmental forces rather than the militia.
Sako dreams of a democratic society with equal rights for all, but that would only happen if Iraq ceased to be a Muslim dictatorship. Meanwhile, Iraq’s Christians continue to vanish. Where are the United Nations statements and condemnations? Where is the influx of foreign aid? Where are the campus and city protests or the social media campaigns?

Nigerian Christians are constantly kidnapped and murdered, Congolese Christians must fear periodic massacres, Gaza’s Christian population dropped like a rock, Syrian Christians are being exterminated by the new jihadi government, and Christians in Iran, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Turkey, Lebanon, and Indonesia face persecution — all because of Islam.
The UN managed to pontificate about Gazan Muslims and Burmese Muslims this week but nothing about persecuted Christians. This is not an accident. It’s ideology. Christians and Jews are the most persecuted religious groups in the world, largely because of Islamic jihadis, but the woke narrative classifies Jews and Christians as always and everywhere disruptive colonialists. That is why the true genocides make no headlines.
