A CALL TO ACTION to rescue Christians of Syria and Iraq
Today, there are approximately 500,000 Christians out of 1.5 million remaining in Iraq. There are more Christians remaining in Syria, seeking asylum in Europe and America.
President Obama refuses their entrance to America, yet is welcoming up to 100,000 Muslims of unknown allegiance and intent to our homeland, refugees vetted by the dubious United Nations.
We need to change this immigration policy or we are going to have the blood of another holocaust on our hands.
According to "The New American" article of November 24, 2015 "Syrian Refugee Crisis Spotlights Anti-Christian bias of Obama Admin." by Steve Byas:
"The New American predicted in 2012 that U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East would contribute to the extermination of Christians, not only in Syria, but also in Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan, the Ivory Coast, and Libya. Nearly a third of Syrias Christians, about 600,000, have found themselves with no choice but to flee the country, driven out by extremist groups like the Nusra Front and now ISIS, the magazine reported.
A century ago, some 15 percent of the population of the Middle East was Christian. Today, it is only four percent."
Steve Byas continues: "since October of last year, 906 Muslims refugees from Syria were granted U.S. visas, but only 28 of Syria's estimated 700,000 Christian refugees obtained visas."
Accordingly, there are 27 Iraqi Chaldean Christians awaiting asylum at the Mexican border, with their families here in San Diego willing to sponsor their entrance, but to no avail under Obama's DHS.

The citizens of America must take immediate action now and circumvent the impotence of our apathetic government in Washington.
Please feel free to forward my letter to all your friends of likeminded empathy and action.
