Independent Catholic News: “Now there are reports that Salafist groups such as al-Qaeda, fundamentalists who believe Islam can be renewed by returning to the values of the era of the Prophet Mohammed, are targeting Christians on purely sectarian grounds.”

A priest and three deacons were killed in Iraq after saying mass Sunday.

Eternal rest grant unto them O Lord,
And let perpetual Light shine upon them.
May their souls
And the souls of all the faithful departed
Through the mercy of God
Rest in peace.
Amen.

Isn’t, basically, everyone under attack in Iraq these days…for being different than the attacker, in some way, shape or form?

Who is everyone? We hear about Shites and Sunis and Americans. There are now only 1/3 of the original number of Iraqi Christians left. I think this should be called out.
