Where is the conscience of the world? Where is the United Nations? Where is the American administration to protect peace and justice?” - Yousif Habash, Iraqi-born bishop of the Syriac Catholic Church ISIS is marking Christian homes with a Christian symbol much like the Nazis did to the Jews in Germany. Iraqi Christians are begging for help after Mosul, the northern city where they have lived and worshiped for 2,000 years, was purged of non-Muslims by ISIS, the jihadist terror group…. Mosul, Iraq’s second-largest city, is the “first cradle of Christianity in Iraq,” Habash said. But after Islamic militants seized the city on June 10, Arabic letters with a chilling ultimatum were left at the homes of Iraqi Christians. “The letter said that if you don’t convert or if you don’t pay, there is a sword between you and us, meaning execution,” Habash said.
