Today, Islam religion is perceived by non-Muslims as world's most intolerant religion. From Asia to Africa to Europe and the Americas, violence is often coming from their own members fighting for their religious "rights" to worship yet THEY CAN'T GIVE THE SAME RIGHTS to those non-Muslims living in the Middle East. And chases out non-Muslims when they get the upper hand or controls non-Muslims how they should behave or worship in their lands. Please remember these Iraqi Christians today in your prayers! -CD2000

A communique from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) gave Christians a deadline of June 19, saying that if they do not leave or accept Islamic rule, "their destiny is the sword." The Aleteia web site, citing local sources, said that this message was being broadcast on loudspeakers by mosques in Mosul.
Bishop Saad Sirop, an auxiliary of the Chaldean Catholic patriarchate in Baghdad, told Aid to the Church in Need: "In the last hours, the jihadists of ISIL have forced the few remaining Christians in Iraq's second city to leave their homes."
Those who do leave the city have been stopped at checkpoints, where jihadists have confiscated some of their possessions and even their vehicles. In Mosul, homes belonging to Christians are being marked by jihadists, to be taken over and looted. ISIL has ordered that Christians may not be given food from relief shipments.
