Christians murdered in response to Pope's remarks
BY STEVE

Terrorist groups have promised to kill all Christians living in Iraq unless Pope Benedict XVI apologizes to Mohammed publicly for his previous remarks on Islam. Yes, what better way to prove the Pope wrong in assuming Islam is spread by the sword than with genocide? So far, two Assyrian Christians have been murdered. The most recent victim died of multiple stab wounds.

Original story from AINA:

Baghdad (AINA) -- Sources at Baghdad's Yarmouk Hospital announced on Saturday the death of a second Assyrian Christian who fell victim to multiple stab wounds at the Assyrian market in the Doura District. His murder comes a day after the attack on Syriac Catholic Church in the Ashar district of central Basra where another man was murdered.

Christian Leaders in Iraq have asked their parishioners to be extremely cautious and not to leave their homes as a new group called the young Brigades of Fundamental Islam ' has distributed papers announcing the slaying of all Iraqi Christians in three days if the Pope does not Apologize.

According to the insurgency-loyal news website, islammemo.cc, the bishop of the Syriac Catholic Church has also taken his plea to the central government of Iraq and the coalition forces in hopes that they intervene and offer protection to the native Christians.
