Last week, hell
came to the tiny Christian village of Maaloula where they still speak
Aramaic, the language of Jesus.
“Rebels of the
Free Syrian Army launched an assault aided by a suicide bomber from Jabhat
al-Nusra,” the al-Qaida-linked Islamic terrorist group, writes the
Washington Post.
The AP picked up
the story:
One resident said
bearded rebels shouting “God is great!” attacked Christian homes and
churches. “They shot and killed people. … I saw three bodies lying in the
middle of a street.”
Maaloula is now a
“ghost town.” Christians left behind were told, “Either you convert to
Islam or you will be beheaded.”
“Where is
President Obama?” wailed a refugee. And, indeed, where is Obama?
He is out lobbying
Congress for authority to attack the Syrian army that defended Maaloula as
John McCain beats the drums for a Senate resolution to have the U.S.
military “change the momentum” of the war to the rebels who terrorized the
convent nuns of Maaloula.
If we strike Syria
and break its army, what happens to 2 million Syrian Christians? Does
anyone care?
