Today, Muslims mostly filled the front pews of St. John’s. Muslims who want their Christian friends and neighbors to come home. The Christians who might see these photos likely will recognize their friends here. The Muslims in this neighborhood worry that other people will take the homes of their Christian neighbors, and that the Christians will never come back. And so they came to St. John’s today in force, and they showed their faces, and they said, “Come back to Iraq. Come home.” They wanted the cameras to catch it. They wanted to spread the word: Come home. Muslims keep telling me to get it on the news. “Tell the Christians to come home to their country Iraq.”
Michael Yon has been embedded in Iraq for some time .He manages to report on the news the rest of the MSM somehow misses.
Do you think that the sectarian rivalries were perhaps over-stated and intentionally inflamed by outside agitators ? Perhaps the Iraqi people are more tolerant then we have been led to believe ?
