Chaldean Abp. Seeks Help for Iraqi Christians; Urges Pres.Trump Help Evacuees Come Home

The Chaldean Archbishop of Erbil, Bashar Warda, is urging President Donald Trump to help 20,000 Iraqi Christian families that have been driven out of their homes following attacks and dangers from Islamic State (IS) extremists, the Christian Post website reports today (November 28, 2017).


Warda said that 20,000 Iraqi Christian families -- or around 100,000 people -- still need vital assistance following years of attacks by Islamic radicals and other conflicts that have driven them out of their homes.


"This is a just case," Warda said in his plea to the Trump administration.


"They are persecuted, they are marginalized, and they are in need," he said of the Christians.
