[MLUG - DISCUSSION] [RELIGION][POLITICS] 60 Minutes on fate of Iraqi Christians

[Mike Miller <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

I don't think they show the entire video segment here, but there is a 
snippet and the transcript is here:

I saw it when it came out in December and I watched it again on Sunday. 
The stories of how Christians are being treated in Iraq are really 
horrible.  Saddam was very good to them and even his close advisor Tariq 
Aziz was a Christian (Chaldean Catholic).  With Saddam out of power, the 
Christians are exquisitely vulnerable and are being tortured and killed in 
large numbers.  The American soldiers cannot protect them because any 
association with the Americans makes things worse for the Iraqi 
Christians.
