When George W. Bush attacked Iraq and the Saddam Hussein regime, millions of Americans rejoiced as the president took unilateral measures to overthrow the evil dictator’s powerful hold over the country. Bush was successful with his stated goal, regime change, but for Iraqi Christians, life would never be the same.
One 2016 publication stated the Christian population in Iraq fell by 80 percent in just a decade following the US invasion. CNN stated Christianity was “in peril” after ISIS took control of the country. And The New York Times questioned if this generation would see the end of Christianity in the Middle East. Oh how quickly it seems American Christians forget the toll taken on their Middle Eastern brothers and sisters when regimes change, and terrorists take over. But that is precisely what will happen if the United States has its way with Syria, the way it did in Iraq. Yet it seems millions of American Christians have pledged their prayer support for the president’s preemptive strike on Syria.
