This is what is happening to the Christians in the Muslim Middle East. They are the descendents of the original Christians
who were lucky enough to survive the Muslim onslaught when the Arabs left the Saudi Peninsula, but now they have to flee themselves to get away from these crazy extremists.

Friday, 18 July 2014
Christians have fled Iraq’s northern city of Mosul en masse before a Saturday
deadline issued by the al-Qaeda inspired Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) for them to either convert to Islam, pay tax, leave or be killed.
Al Arabiya correspondent
in Iraq Majid Hamid said the deadline set by the jihadist group was 12p.m. Iraqi time (10 a.m.GMT). Hamid reported that many Christians fled the city on Friday. It is not
clear if any remained
after the deadline.

Patriarch Louis Sako told AFP on Friday: “Christian families are on their way to Dohuk and Arbil,” in the neighboring autonomous region of
Kurdistan. “For the first time in the history of Iraq,
Mosul is now empty of Christians,” he said.
Witnesses said messages telling Christians to leave
the city by Saturday were blared through
loudspeakers from the
city’s mosques Friday.
