Iraq - 'A Christian holocaust'

In a CNN interview with Jonathan Mann, Mark Arabo, says:
"Christianity in Mosul is dead, and a Christian holocaust is in our midst . . . children are being beheaded, mothers are being raped and killed, and fathers are being hung. Right now, three thousand Christians are in Iraq fleeing to neighbouring cities,'

Mann responds with, 'You're startling me with the severity of what you're describing - You said they are --- beheading children?"

Arabo, calling on the international community to, like France, offer these people asylum continues with, 'They are systematically beheading children, and mothers and fathers. The world hasn't seen an evil like this for generations. There's actually a park in Mosul where they actually beheaded children and put their heads on a stick... this is crimes against humanity. They are doing the most horrendous, the most heart-breaking crimes that you can think of."

Mann asks the question over the ISIS letter telling Christians in Mosul to convert to Islam, pay a fine or be put to 'death by the sword', 'It's clear that they are killing people, but are Christians managing to escape by paying a fine?' To which Arabo responds: 'After Christians pay the fine, the fighters take the Christian wives and children and make them their wives - so it's really convert, or die.'

Those who have escaped the fighters by fleeing to the mountains, have died from lack of food and water there: "A quick scan of Youtube shows the truth of what Arabo is saying - there are gruesome videos of heads on spikes, and many of live beheadings (one poor Christian is forced to say the Shahada 'there is no God but Allah and Muhammad is his Prophet' and then beheaded anyway.)",

Warning: don't google these things unless you have a strong stomach.

They are absolutely killing every Christian they see - This is genocide in every sense of the word. They want everyone to convert, and they want sharia law to be the law of the land.'

Please pray

Please support those in Iraq practically

Please talk about this with others (for generally all I keep hearing about is Gaza)

Please ask your politicians questions about Iraq and your nation's response (and be a pain)
