Christians in Syria face grave dangers, and the idea that Kurdish forces protect them is not true. Kurdish officials told a Christian family they wouldn’t risk themselves for “filthy Christians” when ISIS attacked. This shows the harsh reality on the ground.
Assyrian leader Ashuriena Abraham warns the world not to trust Kurdish militias as guardians of Christians. They abandon believers while creating false stories of protection. These groups are part of the effort to erase Christians from the region.
Turkish-backed forces now target Kurdish Christians in occupied areas. Converts face arrests and charges of apostasy, like Radwan Muhammad when he buried his wife. Persecution forces these believers into hiding.
While some reports claim Christians are slaughtered in Syria, this isn’t the full story. Recent violence killed mostly Alawites, not Christians. But four Christians did die, showing believers remain at risk.
Kurdish forces and their allies have not shielded Christians from jihadists. Instead, they enable the destruction of religious sites and force demographic changes. This breaks communities apart.
The suffering of Middle Eastern Christians demands truth, not fairy tales. Western leaders must stop believing false narratives about protectors. Real people are dying while lies spread.
Christian communities show incredible strength despite persecution. But their survival needs immediate action from freedom-loving nations. Prayer alone won’t save them.
America and its allies must step up with concrete support. Protecting religious minorities requires courage, not empty words. The world cannot stay silent while Christians are erased.
