According to Marie Angel Siebrecht, Christians are in an increasingly difficult situation in Iraq. Here are her remarks in a Zenit interview:
The few Christians who stayed in Iraq are tempted to leave the country. In a certain sense, they are being forced to emigrate. They feel they have no role to play in the new Iraq. There is talk of the Shiites, of Sunni Muslims, of Kurds, but no mention of Christians when thinking about the future. It is true that they are only a minority, but they have a right to be there, just like the rest.
Do pray for our brothers and sisters in that ancient and troubled land.
